It will give us great pleasure to forward a copy of our catalogue to anj* 

 one who "goes a-fishing." Some people charge for their catalogues, some 

 charge for the postage, some charge for both. We are more than willing to 

 give away our catalogues and prepay postage on them. No angler, after 

 looking at the catalogue, can resist buying from us or from our trade- 

 customers all the fishing-tackle he can aftord to pay for. That is where we 

 get back a good deal more than cost of catalogue and postage.

Favorite Flies and their Histories. 



By MARY ORVIS HARBURY. 



Mrs. Marbury is thoroughly enthusiastic over her subject, and after an introductory essay 

 on "Insects, Natural and Artificial,'' etc., she gives the history of the various favorite flies, ac- 

 companied by letters from anglers relating to their use. Two or three years were spent in col- 

 lecting information in this way. The kind interest shown by fellow-fishermen in cordial replies 

 giving their knowledge and opinions was both surprising and delightful, and awakened warmest 

 gratitude. These letters are records of actual experiences, and conclusions deduced from the 

 same; and they cannot fail to be of great assistance to any one who may wish suggestions regard- 

 ing new waters. The colored plates depict 17 hackles, 18 salmon flies, 48 lake flies, 185 trout 

 flies and 58 bass flies, the comprehensive character of the collection, and the value of the detailed 

 comments on each of its 291 flies, will be more apparent. . . "It is destined to remain foi 

 generations to come," says Forest and Stream, "a prominent landmark in angling literature. The 

 fly-fisherman of to-day who does not possess it lives below his privileges." 



Square octavo, 523 pages, 32 colored plates, 6 engravings and 8 reproductions of
