Attention, Sportsmen! 



Flexible, Waterproof, Tan-Color, Buck* _ 



Each article— coat, trousers, vest and hit— havo 

 the name and manufacturer's address stamped upon 

 it, and no suit is genuine without it bears this im- 

 print. 



The suit can be sent, securely packed, by mail to 

 any part of the United States or Canada on re- 

 ceipt of $1.25 above the price of the suit, 



We make no discount except to the trade. We 

 make but one quality, and that is the very best. 

 The price of the suit complete Is $13. 



The suit consists of coat, trousers, vest and choice 

 of either cap with havelock, or hat. 



The material is of the best quality of duck, water- 

 proofed by a patent process. The color is that 

 known as "dead grass shade." 



The seams and uocktt coiners are copper riveted- 

 and nothiDg is neglected to make the whole suit 

 complete in every way. 



This Is what one of our best sportsmen says of it, 

 writing from camp: "Miserable, drenching rain, 

 pouring down in a perfect deluge, as if a second 

 flood had come upon the earth, two portages to 

 cross, and a swamp between them; that was the 

 prospect before we reached our camping ground. 

 Such a swamp, too; almost impassable, for where 

 the ground was firm was an almost impenetrable 

 thicket of thorns and what not, that looked as if it 

 would tear you to pieces. Well, we got to our camp, 

 and I must confess I was agreeably surprised on my 

 arrival. Although I had been nearly eight hours 

 under incessant rain, laboring and striving along 

 under the adverse circumstances above mentioned, 

 ytt I found myself comparatively dry, and my 

 clothes without a tear. For the benefit of our 

 brother sportsmen, let me advise one of Messrs. 

 Simmons' (of Boston, Mass..) Waterproof Suits. 

 Oh! what a relief ip was to ilud one's tobacco was 

 dry, and that one could light a pipe ; that you c >u!d 

 laugh at your miserable friend, who stood shivering 

 and shaking as if he had the palsy; and then, next 

 morning, oil ! what fun it was to see him meuding 

 his clothes, while I hal not a tear to complain of. 

 Ventilation, also, that gi eat bugbear of waterproof 

 suits, is legislated for in the most ingenious manner. 

 No sportsman should fail to supply himself with a 

 suit which is at once cheap, practical, and will last 

 an almost indefinite time." 



Our New Overcoat— The 

 " Plevna," 



Water-proof, Mi'dew-; roof and Moth-proof, is at- 

 tracting great attent in. It is made and sold cnly 

 at Oakhall, Boston. T»e price is * , 3.
