I have just received from a friend my first copy of 

 Recreation. Judging from its appearance it has 

 been passed around among the boys. It is so worn 

 that neither number, volume, nor price can be found, 

 the publisher's address alone remaining. Please let 

 me know the subscription price. This beautiful 

 magazine ought certainly to be in every reading room. 

 Wm. Clark, Rock Island, 111. 



Although I am but 18 years old I am an enthusias- 

 tic sportsman. I take three sportsmen's papers, and 

 would rather miss both of the others than to miss 

 Recreation. I just couldn't do without it. I con- 

 sider it the cleanest, prettiest, and most interesting 

 magazine now published. 



Arthur M. Packer, Mulberry, Ind. 



I have not yet received my August number ot 

 Recreation. I find it more and more interesting 

 with each succeeding issue, and cannot possibly get 

 along without it. My customers are unanimous in 

 its praise. I inclose herewith stamps, for which 

 please enter my yearly subscription for another copy.

Inclosed find $1 in renewal of my subscription. 

 You make the cleanest, brightest, raciest magazine on 

 earth, for sportsmen. The ladies of my household are 

 as fond of it as lam, asking for it every day for a 

 week before it is due. 



Van S. Bennett, Rockton, Wis. 



He — Will you marry me? 

 She — Certainly. 



He — Thanks. I was afraid you were going to say it 

 was too sudden. 

 She — It couldn't be. — Detroit Free Press. 



James — Is Miss Snowball a graduate of Vassar? 

 William — She is. 



" I thought so. I heard her ask if the muzzle of a 

 gun was to prevent it going off." — Hudson Register. 



Inclosed find draft of $21 for nine renewals and 

 twelve new subscriptions for Recreation. I had no 

 trouble at all in getting the boys to renew, as they are 

 all well pleased with the magazine and consider it 

 cheap at $1. 



O. B. Hark, Bethlehem, Pa. 



Please send me, bound, Vols. I. and II. of Recrea- 

 tion; also one copy " American Game Fishes." I am 

 more than pleased with the magazine. Inclosed find 

 check, $4-50.

" I see Hicks is getting his name up," said Digby to 

 Gagby, pointing to some men hanging a sign outside 

 the sixteenth story window of one of New York's sky 

 scrapers.
