The Parker Gun. 

 PARKER BRO 



At the Second International Clay-Pigeon Tournament, held at New Orleans, La., Feb. 11 

 to 16, 1885, the First Prize and Diamond Badge in the Individual Championship Match, open 

 to aU the worjd, was won by B. Tiepel with a Parker gun. Among the contestants shooting 

 other guns wd(re such champions as Carver, Bogardus, Cody, Stubbs, Erb, and others. Dui'- 

 ing the entire tournament more prizes were won with Parker gtms, in proportion to the 

 number used, than with any other gim. 



Hundreds of Prizes 



have been won with AMERICAN IVOOJD 



POWUER, loaded in the following manner. 

 No, 1 represents the exact proportion of a Wood-Powder 

 Shell properly wadded before the wads have been rammed 

 down. No raatt«r what liind o£ wads are used, the same 

 ehould be tough and hard, and the same tUickuens at wad- 

 ding should be used as shown in these Guts. 



In many Parker, Colt and other guns, wads of one or two 

 Sizes larger than bore o£ shell must be used, aa the inner 

 diameter of the barrels of such guns is from one-half to 

 two calibre larger than that of paper shells, preventing the 

 necessary confinementand causing half of the charge being 

 thrown out uuburnt. This is the secret of failures to set 

 the desii-ed penetration with AMEKICAN

In the absence of Stronger primers than used for .-Vmerio,.,. 

 Shells, we advise to put a little black powder In the bcttoiu 

 of the shell, which will generate about the same initial heat 

 as astronger primer and help burning the whole charge of 

 Wood Powder, even when not confined as thoroughly as 

 W. P. must be, to give best possible results when used pure. 



Pfo. 2 represents the properly loaded cartridge. Tlie 

 wads have been i-ninmeif. down about three-eighih.?) of an 

 Inch with two or three hard blows of a mallet or hammer 

 and a tight fitting rammlng-stick. u ntil the Wood Powder is

 ordinary way and shells crimpi 1 do^^ n tightly. For brum's

CRUTTENDEN FLY ROD. 



It has Nickle Plated Patented Solid Reel Plate which prevents Reel getting fast by swelling of wood, 

 f rod should get wet. Full Nickle Plated, Patented Ferrules, allowing the wood to be used the full 

 size, thus preventing rod breaking where wood and ferrules join. Metal Tennons which prevent joints 

 getting stuck togethw. The entire rod is made from the best selected lancewood, left natttral color, 

 varnished and polished. This makes a handsome finish, and is less liable to be seen by the wary fish 

 than a dark rod. The butt is wound with cane and silk in an artistic manner, which not only gives it 

 the appearance, but also the feeling of the high-priced rods. The complete rofl has a look of beauty, 

 which is a joy to every fisherman's heart while using it. It is well and neatly ringed throug:hout. and 

 has an extra winding between each ring. There has been so many rods made of an inferior quality 

 that resemble this, that all from this date will have stami)ed on reel plate " W. H. Cruttenden." and noae 

 genuine unless so stamped. Length, lOUft; weight, 9\i to lOozs. AD the pai^;s are interchangeable, and 

 if, by accident, any part should get broken, can send duplicate without rod being retm-ned. The best 

 made rod in the United States, and we will guarantee it in every way. With short tip it makes an excel- 

 lent bass rod. Sent to any part of U. S. in case, 1 bass, 1 trout tip, prepaid, for $5.35; bass tips, $1.00;
