I want every enthuslastlo fisherman, whether amateur, 

 beginner or professional to have a personal knowledge 

 of the fine points of the Shakespeare Eeels and the mar- 

 velous catching qualities of the Shakespeare Baits— and to 

 do this I propose to send to every man or woman who 

 fishes for the real sport there Is In it, one of my reels and 

 baits for free trial on their next fishing trip. "Write to-day. 

 Send your name and address and the name and address 

 of the leading sporting goods dealer of your city to Wm. 

 Shakespeare Jr., 245 Shakespeare Bldg., Kalamazoo, Mich. 

 The Shakespeare Reel is specially designed for accurate 

 and long-distance casting, and is without doubt the best 

 reel in the world, and you will say so when you see it. The 

 metal used In the manufacture of the Shakespeare Eeel 

 is hard-drawn brass and the finest English Stubbs steel— 

 the best obtainable. Painstaking carets used to secure 

 perfect accuracy in every detail. In beauty of design, and 

 simplicity of construction it is unequaled. Its easy, silent 

 running suggests perpetual motion and It Is fitted with the 



most perfect drag and click ever Invented. Words will nol 

 describe Its beauty, its usefulness and its many advantages 

 over all other reels. My reels and baits are for sale by all 

 first-class dealers, but I want you to see them and try them 

 for yourself and you shall have them, if you write 

 me, for a free trial on your next fishing trip. The 

 Shakespeare Baits are really marvelous. With them the 

 fisherman Is sure of a good catch, no matter where the fish 

 are, In the lake or stream. If they are In deep water, 

 Shakespeare makes the bait that attracts them. If they 

 are In shallow water, Shakespeare makes the bait th' 

 catches them. If they are hidden In the lily pads or ir.was, 

 Shakespeare makes the bait that makes them strike. And 

 Shakespeare offers $100 in prizes for the photograph and 

 authentic dimensions of the biggest large or small mouth 

 bass caught this year. Write to-day for particulars. Ilis 

 little booklets, "How to Catch Bass," "Fine Points About 

 Tackle" and "The Art of Bait Casting" are free to every 

 angler. Write co-day and send your name and address*
