CANOX: HANDLING. 



By C. B. VAUX ("DOT»»). 



A complete manual for the management of a canoe. The author begins at the very 

 beginning, describes and explains the rudiments in the simplest and plainest way possible. 

 Everything is made intelligible for beginners : and besides this ABC teaching there are so 

 many hints and wrinkles that the oldest canoeist afloat will find pleasure and profit in the 

 study of these. The book is complete and concise — no useless duffle between its covers. The 

 subjects treated are the choice of a canoe, pa.ddUng, saihng, care of thf; canoe, recipes and 

 rules. The text is further elucidated by numerous practical drawings, and the beauty of the 

 book is enhanced by the many ornamental vignettes. JPages 168; uniform with "Canoa 

 Building." Price, postpaid, $1.00.

Glens Falls, N. Y., June 15, 1884. 

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



Deah Sir— I have not sooner acknowledged the 

 receipt of box of "Black-Fly Oeam," 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 pests swarmed about me, I found 

 the Cream a perfect preventive against Iheir 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 Ghbnbt.
