through Champion King of Kent and 

 Champion Priam, in an unbroken line to 

 Champion Bang, the greatest producer of 

 field and bench winners the world has ever 

 known; and whose descendants are sought 

 after and given preference in every land 

 where pointers are used. 



The cigars are good, as befits the name, 

 and it is eminently proper that sportsmen 

 who know Von Gull, or for that matter all 

 who like to shoot over a good dog, should 

 smoke them. 



All sportsmen, who have hunted in Wyo- 

 ming since the license law was enacted, 

 and who have paid money to game, war- 

 dens for licenses or permits to hunt, with- 

 out receiving licenses, are requested to 

 notify this office. It is alleged that moneys 

 have been collected for hunting licenses 

 and no return thereof made to the proper 

 officials, and Recreation wishes to aid in 

 the investigation now being made. 



The passenger department of the U. P. 

 R. R. has lately issued 2 beautiful books. 

 One is entitled "Our New Colonies" and 

 treats of Hawaii and the Philippines. It 

 contains a very handy and practical map 

 showing Europe, North America, China, 

 Japan, Australia, with the routes of the sev- 

 eral steamship companies between and con- 

 sequently including the Hawaiia and the 

 Philippine Islands. This map should be 

 in every family and in every office. The 

 book contains a lot of beautiful reproduc- 

 tions of scenery in these various groups of 

 islands. 



The fruits represented as growing in the 

 Hawaiian group are enough to make one's 

 mouth water. 



The other book referred to is devoted to 

 descriptions and pictures of points of in- 

 terest on the U. P. route. These are 

 printed in colors with a lithographic effect 

 which is exceedingly pleasing to the eye. 

 They are well worth saving. 



If you will write for these books to 

 J. L. Tomax. Omaha, Neb., mentioning 

 Recreation, you will thank me for hav- 

 ing told you where to get them. 



The trend of events is making America 

 every year more and more the westward 

 overland route between Europe and the far 

 Orient, and turning our own stream of 

 trade and traffic more vigorously, running 

 from the East to the Pacific coast. The 

 New York Central is naturally receiving 

 the main body of the new patronage. The 

 wonderful comfort and speed of its trains, 

 the directness of its connections, and its 

 regularity and reliability are the factors 

 that determine this. Nothing so impresses 

 the traveler from abroad as the superiority 



of our railway travel, and the New York 

 Central is largely entitled to the credit of 

 this good opinion, for that is the trans- 

 continental line they see most of. — Ex- 

 change. 



The genuine Guyot suspenders are always 

 satisfactory. They are the only hygienic 

 braces ever made. They are the result of a 

 life's devotion of the inventor, Charles 

 Guyot, to what he considered one of the 

 greatest human problems, and which was to 

 practically make the most important por- 

 tions of the masculine attire keep their posi- 

 tion in an easy and comfortable manner. 

 Guyot suspenders indirectly add greatly to 

 the appearance of a well dressed man, for 

 his trousers never become baggy at the 

 knees and always retain their intended grace- 

 ful lines, if Guyot suspenders are attached. 



Numerous arbitrations in the past 16 

 years have declared the New York Central 

 the only first-class line between New York 

 and Buffalo. No wonder it carries the bulk 

 of the first-class travel. Its trains are fast 

 and luxurious. Its tracks are 4 in number 

 and smooth as a floor. Its equipment is 

 up to date. Its power is superior to any 

 other in the world. You step from the 

 car upon the platform of Grand Central 

 Station in the center of the second city in 

 the world, and on no other line from the 

 West can this be done. Its motto is that of 

 the Empire State — "Excelsior." — The Phil- 

 istine. 



Women golfers have many good words 

 for the Spat and Puttee combined, made by 

 Fox Brothers. In Scotland, where damp 

 chilly weather has prevailed, they have 

 proved the greatest comfort to enthusiastic 

 players and later they are likely to find 

 wide patronage. They are made in dark 

 blue, brown, and black. They are, of 

 course, suggested by the masculine article, 

 only in thinner material of a finer make, 

 and are worn with either boots or shoes, 

 giving a comfortable support to the leg. 

 They are a vast improvement on leggings.

There are a lot of men who never wore 

 garters. They don't know how much more 

 self-satisfied a man feels who does. It is 

 about the same as the man who never ate 

 pie, he don't know what he's missing. To 

 those men who have never tried pie we 

 recommend "The kind that mother made." 

 To those who have never worn garters we 

 say try the "Boston Garter." no other will 

 give half the satisfaction.
