RECREA TION. 



li 



Valley Home is a beautiful Summer re- 

 sort for sportsmen. Is in the heart of a rich 

 hunting country — rich in all that delights 

 the heart of the sportsman. Elk, Deer, 

 Mountain Sheep, Bear and a great number 

 of fur bearing animals. No finer trout 

 stream exists than the far-famed Shoshone 

 river, on whose picturesque banks this El- 

 dorado for hunters is located. Valley Home 

 is nestled among the snow-capped rockies, 

 and no grandeur scenery can be found in 

 Switzerland. The canons and waterfalls are 

 such that no pen can describe them. Ranch 

 is 20 miles from Ishawood, Big Horn 

 County, Wyoming.

I mail you a photo of a boy champion. 

 For his age I have not seen his equal. He 

 is my son, Rolla O. Brown, 2 years, 5 

 months, and 7 days old on the 14th day ot 

 October. 1897, the day I had his photo 

 taken. He shoots an air rifle and at a dis- 

 tance of 6 feet will hit an empty 1 pound 

 powder can at every shot. He is not strong 

 enough to pull an ordinary trigger, so I had 

 a special one made for him. 



Henry T. Brown, Wilkinsburg, Pa. 



Mrs. Wiggins— I wonder why it is that 

 those men who write the best poems on 

 love are single men? 



Wiggins — For the same reason, I sup- 

 pose, that a man does not usually feel in- 

 clined to write poetry on the ocean after he 

 has been seasick.
