New Minnow-Casting Reel. 



Our Imperial Steel Pivot Reel 



WITH INDEPENDENT SPOOL. 



Size No. 3. 



We have perfected and patented tills simple device for throwing- 

 a multiplying- reel in and ont of gear at will. 



In casting- a minnow or other bait, more force has to be used than 

 really necessary to cast the bait, as so much of the power used is 

 absorbed in starting- the handle running, which when started 

 causes the reel to overrun. 



This trouble is overcome by our device, which is applied by 

 simply pushing a ICAcr or index one way to ungear the reel, and 

 the reverse way to gear it for reeling in or playing the lish. 



This must commend itself to anglers for casting a long dis- 

 tance or for casting a light bait.

Qlkns Falls, N. T., 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 1 desired 

 to first test it: this 1 have now done on two fishing 

 trips where I found the Mosquitoes, Black Fhes, 

 Punkies and Moose or Deer FUes in great abundance. 

 Although all these pests swarmed about me, 1 found 

 the Cream a perfect preventive against their bites 

 when it was applied t© face, hands, ears and neck. 

 For many years 1 have sought after the in.sect re- 

 pellent, and have tried all manner of compounds 

 but yours is the most thorough, at the same time 

 cleanly and not disagreeable. 



Yours iruly, A. Nelson Cheney.
