300,000! 



Safe, Satisfied Riders 



last year. Safe, because their wheels 

 were fitted with the Morrow Coaster 

 Brake. Wheel always under control. 

 Satisfied, because the Morrow 

 Coaster Brake did just what we 

 claimed it would — " Ride fifty miles, 

 but pedal only thirty-five miles."

THIS IS A JOSH. 



The letters in the gun and ammunition 

 department contain much valuable infor- 

 mation for sportsmen, but I can not sub- 

 scribe to their praise of the 30-30S, 30-40S, 

 and .303. I was beguiled into buying a 

 30-40 and my partner has a .303 British, 

 but I would not give my old 44-40 Win- 

 chester for either of them. I will back it 

 against anything made at the present day. 

 A fellow told me he had seen several 30-40 

 bullets sent right through a deer endways 

 and she did not seem to mind it a bit. 

 With my 44-40 I killed 4 deer and 3 fawns 

 one day last summer in 9 shots. I think 

 that record can not be beaten by any other 

 rifle. It was an awful hot day, too, and 

 before I had 2 skinned I had to quit as the 

 smell was getting too offensive. 



I also possess an 8 bore muzzle loader 

 made many years ago. It is still a good 

 weapon. Last Christmas I saw a number 

 of prairie chickens near my place. I took 

 down the old gun out of curiosity to see 

 how many it could kill. Though all of 

 70 yards away it dropped 14. Later I 

 found 5 more wounded and I know it hit 

 others, for I could see their legs hanging 

 down as they flew off.

IN ANSWERING ADS PLEASE MEN- 

 TION RECREATION. 



Every Sportsman

 Every Explorer 



Who goes into the woods or the mountains 

 should carry one of 



Marble's Pocket Axes 



This is the most convenient and useful tool ever 



invented for such men. 

 It is as important as a hunting knife, and almost 



as much so as a match box. This Ax is 



neat, light, safe and effective. 



You can do more things with it than with any 



other one instrument known to the craft. 

 I have made an arrangement with 



W. L. Marble, Gladstone, Mich. 



The Maker of this Ax 



which enables me to offer, for a short time, one 

 of these axes as 



A Premium for Three Subscriptions 



to RECREATION. 



This is Another Great Opportunity 



and should be taken advantage of at once by 

 every woodsman who is not already supplied 

 with one of these handy tools. 



Sample copies of RECREATION for use in can- 

 vassing furnished on application.
