AN APPEAL TO FAIR SPORTSMEN. 



We have reasons for believing the agent of at 

 least one rival target company has bribed trappers 

 so to manage our traps and targets as to cause 

 same lo appear to be a failure. If therefore any 

 of you, having relied solely upon your hired trap- 

 pers, have found they could not work our clay 

 pigeon No. 1, efficiently, we ask you to try the same 

 individually and you will thus verify our claims, 

 not only a« to having the ORIGINAL flying target, 

 but as to its being the MOST SATISFACTORY in 

 every regard, as attested by the hundreds of testi- 

 monials from the V. S.. Canada, Great Britain, Ger- 

 many, France, India, Mexico, etc.

HOW CAK A EOO-T BE WATEKPROOE 

 AND NOT SWEAT THE FEET ? Common 

 waterproof boots keep the perspiration in as well 

 as the water out, and perspiration that finds its 

 way through leather is kept in the rubber boot. 

 This renders the sock wet, and, when the wearer 

 ceases walking, causes the cold clammy feeling 

 which is so objectionable and unhealthy. 



THE HANNAFORD VENTILATED 



RUBBER BOOT, 



while it is waterproof and as warm as any boot 

 made, provides a way for the perspiration to escape; 

 at each step the foul air is forced out of the boot, 

 and when the weight of the body is removed from 

 the compressible top sole, fresh air is admitted to 

 the foot; thus the sock is kept free from the mois- 

 ture which causes the feet to become cold, sore, and 

 tender. Send for circular.
