Why Sportsmen <Si, Dealers Prefer 



CHAMBERLIN 



CARTRIDGES. 



BECAUSE THET AEE BETTER tlian can be loaded by hand. 

 CHEAPER mM HAND LOADED when same quaUty material is used. 



ALL DANGER FROM HANDLING POWDER IS AVOIDED. 



SORA. 



These cartridges are so safe that insurance rates are not increased hy keeping them in stock. When 

 burning they exhibit no force of explosion. The thin paper shells offer no resistance, but tend to separate the 

 bulk of powder into such minute proportions as to make them perfectly harmless. A package of these goods 

 burned in an open fire does not make as much noise or exhibit greater force than so many fire-crackers. Powder 

 requires confinement to produce force. This is therefore the safest form in which powder can be kept in stock 

 or transported. 



The convenience of FIXED AMMUNITION FOR SHOTGUNS is readily appreciated. 



Dealers get rid of a great amount of fault-finding and worry by selling Chamberlin Cartridges, and sports- 

 men, knowing that Ihe reputation and success of a large enterprise depends upon honest manufacture, feel 

 perfectly safe in buying thera.

SMALL YACHTS. 



Their Design and Construction, Exemplified by the 

 Ruling Types of Modern Practice. 



By C P. XKXTZH'XXA.RDrr. 



The FoTiEST and STKEAjr Puulishing Company takes pleasure in announcing the publication of a magnificent quarto volume, bearing the above title. This book covers the 

 eld of Small Yachts, with special regard to their design, construction, equipment and keep. The opening chapters are devoted to a consideration of the inodel and the draft, their 

 relatioBS to one another, and the purposes which they subserve. Full directions are given for producing the plans of a yacht with reference to the chief points in design, and the method 

 of taking off the lines of a boat already built is likewise described in detail. 



AU elements entering into design, such as Resistance, Stability. Balance of Rig, Handiness, Displacement, etc., are dealt with in separate chapters. The rules necessary for the 

 mathematical computations, and a review of theory and practice close the first division of the book. 



The second portion comprises the description of the Plates, covering the whole range of type in small yachts, from the shoal catboat and American centerboard sloop to examples 

 of the narrowest and deepest British cutter yet built. These yachts have their lines, build and fittings depicted in the Plates, which are drawn to scale. With their a,id and the specifi- 

 cations presented, the reader is placed in possession of accurate information concerning the mould, accommodations, rig and characteristics of all styles of yachts which have received 

 favorable recognition. Sporting boats, combination row and sailboats, and various examples of special form are introduced. 



The third division offers a comprehensive review of single-hand sailing, to which small yachts are especially adapted. Directions are given as a guide in selection of type and sail 

 plan, and subsequent equipment and proper management. , rr^. r • ^ -r. ^ ^ t, ^ 



The iron work of yachts, their gear, yawls, stearing apparatus, boat building and much other closely related matter is entered upon. Ihe new international Rules ot the Road, 

 Signal Service, and a bibliography appear in the Appendix.

A folio volume (size of page 14^x121 inches), printed on paper specially manufactured for it, and with great beauty of execution and finish m every detail, making a volume 

 vastly superior to any other work of the kind ever published. Pages 370, with 136 plate pages additional, or a total of more than 500.
