The attention of sportsmen is called to the 

 advertisement of the Gold Medal Camp Furni- 

 ture Company in this issue of Recreation. I 

 have used these goods for many years and have 

 long since learned to regard them as absolute 

 necessities of camp life. 



Their bed folds into a package 6 inches in 

 diameter and 3 feet long ; then at night it opens 

 out so as to furnish a luxuriant couch for a 300 

 pound man. Ycu can carry a bed, a table and 

 half a dozen chairs under your arm, or on your 

 back, and not be badly loaded either. The 

 company's address is Racine, Wis. Send for a 

 catalogue. Mention Recreation. 



E. W. Campbell, gun dealer, Pittston, Pa., 

 writes : " Recreation has more circulation 

 here than all the other sportsmen's periodicals 

 combined." 



When grandma in her gentle zeal, 



Was wont to spin beside her wheel. 



In empire gowns that brushed her heel, 



She little dreamed 'twas fated 

 That maids would spin along the pike 

 Upon a wheel they called a " bike," 



In garments bifurcated ! — Truth. 



Haverly — I went in six different drug stores 

 while I was in Philadelphia, without being able 

 to get any morphine. 



Austen — Great Scott, man ! Nobody there 

 needs morphine. — Truth.
