 H. M. Spr-ague, Boat Bail ler, Pwishvine, N~. T.: 



Dear Sir — I can hardly fay on paper how well 

 I like your boats, and your Patent. Rubber Im- 

 provement is just the thing, at least that is the 

 way I find it by use of two of your boats the last 

 summer on the river by all my family, and any 

 boat that can stand the bard usage a boat gets 

 with six or eight children in and out of same two 

 months in summer every hour of day and have 

 the boats stand tbe tear, is good enough and bet- 

 ter than words. 



Respectfully, S. B. Merrill. 



Now is your chance to buy a Sprague Pat- 

 ent Rubber-Packed Boat. Over fifty now 

 ready for immediate delivery, from 10 to 16ft. 

 Over SO in use giving perfect satisfaction; where- 

 ever known and used they are the established 

 favorite. I am determined to have them placed 

 before sportsmen more generally. Don't fail to 

 send 2-cent stamp for 1890 catalogue. Address

When a sportsman finds anything which adds to his 

 pleasure, without increasine his labor, he wants all his 

 pi-other hunters and anglers to know of it and share 

 with him the newly discovered "helper." 



WHAT WE CLAIM FOR 



The Automatic Reel. 



First.— It will wind up the line a hundred times 

 as fas t as any other reel in the world. 



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

 angler chooses. 



Third.— No fish can ever get slack line with it. 



Fourth.— It will save more fish than any other 

 reel. 



Fifth. 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. 



The reel is maniptdated en- 

 tirely by the hand that holds 

 the rod.
