 as fas t as any other reel in the world. 



Second.— It will wind up the line slowly if the 

 angler chooses. .

Foitrth. — It will save more fish than any otber 



FiVth. It will prevent tips, lines and snells 

 from being broken by large fish. 



Sixth.— It enables the angler, and makes it 

 desirable, to use lighter tackle. 



These claims have been substantiated by the 

 most skillful fishermen in America and Europe.

FOR 8 ALE — To a Club 



Or Sanitarium. A tract in Wilniurt. Herkimer county 

 N. Y., 1,5(111 to 1,7(11) acres of land and water, in the eclgi 

 of the Adirondack forest. There are four lakes, the 

 beautiful and well-known "Hinckley Lake," Atwc 

 Spectacle and Fine Lake. All the lakes could be . . 

 nected. There Is a renularly built ottaee for family of 

 8, barn, and boat house at Hinckley Lake, and very ex- 

 cellent and commodious farm building at Wibnurt Cor- 

 ners, which could be used at once for a club. There are 

 hundreds of acres of forest, and a water-power and saw 

 mill (opposite "Wilkinson's"! which would be reserved 

 if desired, but buyers would need ir. lor convenience in 

 getting boards for cottages, etc. Hinckley Lake is esti- 

 mated to contain 100 acres. Margin irregular and lovely. 

 While apparently isolated, the forest on one side extend- 

 ing indefinitely, It is really only a few rods from the cot- 

 tage to the highway, less than a mile from the post- 

 office, where i here is a daily mail by a stage which ruus 

 from Prospect Station, on Rome, W. & O. R. R., to More- 

 housevillo, Hamilton Co. The Four-Mile Creek crosses 

 the tract and the W. Canada bounds about 2 miles of it, 

 bath considered a,s good fishing streams as any in that 

 region. All the Water is soft and pure. The tract covers 

 i ioth sides of the outlet of the lakes, which empties into 

 the W. Canada. There is no other location to be com- 

 pared with this on this side of the Adirondack? for 

 beauty, accessibility or convenience either for a club or 

 sanitarium. It is well located for a fish hatchery in 

 even- respect. As if is only about .15 miles from Prospect, 

 it is practicable to leave Utiea on the early morning 

 train and reach the lakes, bv a pleasant country road, 

 before dinner, or to leave there in the P. M. and take the 

 late evening train to TJtica. This property, while far 

 enough in the woods for every practicable purpose of 

 quiet, pure air, fishing and hunting, is within easy reach 

 of a daily mail and stage, and a doctor if needed. At- 

 wood Lake lies partly in sight of the road. Hinckley 

 Lake is less than }4 mile from Wilmurt Corners. At- 

 wood and Spectacle fakes lie near together, separated by 

 a ridge. Cottages built on the ridge would command a 

 lovely view, and immediately overlook both lakes. 

 The ridge could be cut, uniting the lakes, if desired. 

 There is no other spot in the Adirondacks which com- 

 bines more advantages, beauty ariij variety of scenery, 

 the contiguity of lakes, accessibility with apparent 

 seclusion.'purest and softest water, facilities for fishing 

 and hunting, etc. Parties wishing to buy will please 

 address S. HELEN HINCKLEY, Gang Mills, Herkimer 

 Co., N. Y.

GURDON TRUMBUIili'S 



Which Interest Gunners; ivith descriptions in 

 language understanded of the people 



Practically speaking, this is the first popular 

 volume of ornithology ever issued from the press; 

 a work which goes far to demonstrate that scien- 

 tific accuracy may be as easily maintained in 

 English as in Greek or Latin. Follows the 

 game birds all over the continent and gives a 

 glossary of all the local names in popular use. 

 Illustrated with admirable portraits from the 

 pencil of Mr. Edwin Shepard of the Academy of 

 Natural Sciences, Philadelphia, which, with the 

 clear descriptions in the text, will enahle any 

 man who can read to identify the contents of his 

 game bag. 



OPINIONS OV THE PBESS; 



It is the first, so far as we know, of a class of 

 books of which the need is felt in every depart- 

 ment of natural history.— Troy Press. 



The book should find its way to a choice place 

 in every sportsman's library.— Chicago Inter- 

 Ocean. 



I would much rather know what this book tells 

 me, the various names by which the people call 

 a bird, than the Latin, Greek or Hebrew name 

 which science gave him for the sake of catalogu- 

 ing him. * * * It is more value to me to have 

 a description of a bird in plain English which 1 

 understand than in scientific language which I 

 do not understand.— TF., in Journal of Commerce.
