Here's the Point About a 

 "Y and E" Automatic Reel 



B 



The gentle pressure of your little 

 finger on the brake applies 

 a tension to the line which 

 ABSOLUTELY PREVENTS the 

 Scaly Gentleman from getting 

 SLACK enough to dislodge 

 your hook. Think what an 

 added zest this gives to 

 the sport of fighting out 



Little finger 

 does it 



your battles with the finny tribe ! 



Besides, the Automatic-Com- 

 bination feature makes your Reel Free 

 Running (just like any other Reel) or Auto- 

 matic — by the simple pressing of a slide. That 

 saves winding a crank like fury, to reel in your line 

 after you have made a cast.

"Oh, George," sighed the romantic girl, 

 "I wish you were like the old time knights ; 

 I wish you'd do something brave to show 

 your love for me." 



"Gracious! Haven't I agreed to marry 

 you, and me only getting $20 a week?" — 

 Philadelphia Press. 



I received the Marble safety ax you sent 

 me as a premium. It is the best little ax 

 I ever saw. No hunter should go in the 

 woods without one when they can be so 

 easily obtained.

I have long been a reader and admirer of 

 Recreation, and to me it is the most wel- 

 come of all periodicals that hold a place 

 in the librarv. 



J. M. Bradford, Beloit, Wis. 



Please accept my thanks for the Harring- 

 ton & Richardson revolver you sent me. 

 It is a beauty and I do not see how you 

 can give such valuable premiums for so 

 few subscriptions. 



R. F. Green, Solsville, N. Y. 



Cope — I hear your boss expects to raise 



your salary next month? 



Hope — So he says. But he hasn't suc- 

 ceeded in raising all of last month's yet.

Aubrey — Youah daughtah has consented 

 to mawy me, and — er — I'd like to know if 

 there is any insanity in youah family? 



Old Gentleman (emphatically) — There 

 must be ! — Just Fun.
