DEER HUNTING. 



BY JUDGE JOHN DEAN CATON. 



BY and by ib will be time to hunt antelope and deer. It is 

 alwaj r s time to read about them. Judge Caton's book 

 on the antelope, elk, deer, moose and caribou of America 

 discusses in a readable way the life history of these animals 

 and the methods of their capture. It is the work of an 

 enthusiastic sportsman who has nad a wide experience and 

 has devoted the leisure of years to studying these interesting 

 game animals. The volume is very fully illustrated, and is a 

 perfect storehouse of information and entertainment. The first 

 edition was sold by the Boston publishers at $4. Price .$2.50. 



WOODCRAFT. 



BY "NESSMUK." 



A COMPACT pocket handbook of condensed, boiled-down, 

 concise, clear, comprehensive, sensible, practical camp 

 gumption. "Nessmuk" has been "in the woods" in Michigan. 

 New York, Pennsylvania, and South America, and this is a 

 book tor outers, wherever they kindle their camp-fire. The 

 author believes in -'smoothing it." He has learned how; now 

 he tells others. It is much easier to learn from "Kessmuk" 

 than from Dame Experience. We should not be surprised if 

 "Woodcraft" completely revolutionized the methods of camp- 

 ing out. It you are going to the woods, read "Woodcraft" 

 before you go. It may add to your trip a hundred fold. 

 Price $1.00. 



DOG TRAINING. 



BY S. T. HAMMOND. 



HE was a promising puppy, and when you turned him over 

 to the breaker to be educated, you thought he was 

 bound to make "the best dog in the world." And you'll not 

 soon forget how disappointed and disgusted you were when 

 the dog, the breaker and the big bill— all three turned up 

 together, and you saw that the animal's spirit was broken 

 and it would take a steam calliope to make him mind. Now, 

 this could not have happened if you had t.een wise enough to 

 buy a copy of Hammond's book, and in your odd leisure 

 moments train the dog yourself instead of having him 

 broken by some one else. We are selling edition after edition 

 of this book, and it is revolutionizing the system of preparing 

 dogs for work in the field. Price $1.00. 



SHORE BIRDS. 



A PAMPHLET for those who "gun" along the shore. Tells 

 _£jL of: I. Haunts and Habits — Where the bay birds live 

 and what they do at home. II. Range and Migration — Where 

 they go to breed and where to spend the winter. III. A 

 Morning Without the Birds — An episode of shore shooting. 

 IV. Nomenclature— A list of our American species of Limicolce, 

 with a description of each specie*. V. Localities— Where to 

 go to shoot them. VI. Blinds and Decoys — How to shoot 

 them after you have reached the grounds. 45 pp., paper. 

 Price 15 cents. 



ANGLING TALKS. 



BY GEORGE DAWSON. 



AS a political writer of conceded power, Mr. Dawson 

 wielded a trenchant pen; when he terned from the 

 conflict of parties to the praise of the favorite pastime of 

 "simple wise men," his essays, limpid as the crystal streams, 

 are aglow with the soft summer sunlight and melodious with 

 the songs of birds. When angling was the theme, he wrote 

 from a full heart and in closest sympathy with the scenes and 

 pursuits described. These "Talks" are brimful of manly, 

 wholesome sentiment; there is in them all not a particle of 

 cant. Their sincerity and overflowing spirit at once win the 

 reader, and he perforce shares the author's enthusiasm. The 

 effect is magical, like that of the mimic players in Xenophon's 

 Memorabilia: he who reads, if he be an angler, must go 

 a-fishing; and if he be not, straightway then must he become 

 one.— Extract from Publishers' Preface. Cloth, price 50 cents. 



CANOE "AURORA." 



BY DR. C. A. NEIDE. 



A CHARMINGLY written and alwavs entertaining account 

 of a canoe cruise from Lake George, New York, down 

 the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers to the Gulf of Mexico, by the 

 Secretary of the American Canoe Association. To read the 

 cruise of the "Aurora" is the next best thing to having made 

 it; and the reading is decidedly more pleasant than would 

 have been participation in some of the misadventures related. 

 216 pp., cloth. Price $1.00.

Old Saint Augustine. 



By CHARLES B. REYNOLDS (Forest and Stream). 



THE famous Florida town's three centuries have been crowded with romantic incidents; and 

 a story of wonderful interest is this, with its Huguenots and Spaniards, Franciscan Fathers, 

 English Sea Kings, Boucanier?, Minorcans, Liberty Boys, 

 and Seminoles. It is told vividly, in the briefest possible 

 compass, with strict historical accuracy, and with an enthu- 

 siasm that is manifest from the very first page to the last. 

 Among the illustrations are copies of some of the very rare 

 drawings by Jacques Le Moyne, the French artist, who so 

 narrowly escaped massacre by the Spaniards in Florida, three 

 hundred years ago. Another very rare engraving is the plan 

 of the city in British times. The artotypes (or photographs 

 in permanent ink) are among the most beautiful book illus- 

 trations of the day. They are made from negatives taken 

 expressly for " Old St. Augustine," and are: Fort Marion 

 (four views), the Matanzas Fort, the City Gateway, the 

 Cathedral, the old Palm-tree, Garden Overlooking Plaza, and 

 two very characteristic St. Augustine Houses. Cloth, pp. 144, 

 8vo. Price, $1.50. Forest and Stream Publishing Co.

Glens Falls, Vt., June 15, 1884. 

 Mr. A. S. Hinds, Portland, Me.: 



Dear Sir-I have not sooner acknowledged the 

 receipt of box of "Black-Fly Cream." as I desired 

 to first test it; this I have now done on two fishing 

 trips where I found the Mosquitoes, Black Flies, 

 Punkies and Moose or Deer Flies in great abundance. 

 Although all these rests swarmed about me, Ifound 

 the Cream, a perfei pri entivb against their bites 

 when it was applied to face, hands, ears and neck. 

 For many years I have sought after the insect re- 

 pellent, and have tried all manner of compounds, 

 but yours is the most thorough, at the same time 

 cleanly and not disagreeable. 



Yours truly, A. Nelson Cheney.
