that magazine, showed that a greater number of prize- 
winners used Meisselbach reels than that of any other make 
— the actual figures for Meisselbach being 24. with the 
next nearest competitor numbering but 13. Meisselbach 
reels — the choice of fishermen who know.

CELEBRATED 
TeleranaNova 
LEADER 
A Leadetr that is 
well named A 
LEADER. A LEAD- a 
ER of Leaders. 
A Leader that has LED the largest trout 
and salmon to their death this past sea- 
son. Do you know the largest trout was 
landed in Colorado, 1054 lbs. by M. Pawls 
of Meeker on a No. 2 Joe Welsh leader? 
The largest salmon, 41 lbs., landed by 
Judge Osborne on a No. 2 Joe Welsh Lean- 
er. The largest trout in So. Calif, 32V5, 
13 lbs. 3 oz., was landed on a No. 3 Joe 
Welsh Leader by Joe Welsh himself. 
0. S. Taylor says In the American Field : 
“The only Leader I found to stand the 
fishing in the Soo were Joe Welsh Lead- 
era.” Dixie Carroll, of national fame, 
says they are par excellence. So does a 
score of our best known writing anglers. 
Think of a knotless, invisible, strong 
leader in all lengths up to 9 ft. in 6 
sizes with breaking strains from 2 y 3 to 
30 lbs. All quality. Make the weakest 
part of your tackle the strongest. 
SPECIAL OFFER — I will send you a 8-ft. Leader 
for 25c— 6-ft. Leader for 50c— 9-ft. Leader for

Of other game the kudu, sable and 
mountain nyala are all fond of hills, 
whilst the elephant, chiefly a bush- 
dweller, is also a great mountaineer — 
its tracks and paths are found on near- 
ly every important mountain, except 
where it has been exterminated by man. 
In conclus'on, it will, of course, be 
understood that the lives of all ani- 
mals, their habits and changes of hab- 
itat, are actuated and directed by the 
same elements that affect the lives of 
men. Various scourges, continued dry 
spells, fires or the destruction of vege- 
tation prompt certain animals to long 
migrations and naturally they are ac- 
companied by the carnivora which prey 
upon them. The practical sportsman, 
however, can read all these various 
languages of nature clearly.

(CONTINUED FROM PAGE 29S) 
influence with the President than him- 
self it would be useless to try. The 
party suggested the names of several 
prominent men, but the Senator said 
they would not do. Finally the party 
mentioned Commodore Bob Evans, who 
was a fellow officer in the Navy, and 
he and Captain Brice were good 
friends. ‘Well,’ Senator Brice said, ‘I 
know of no one who has more influence 
with the President than Bob Evans; 
they are very chummy, and go fishing 
and shooting together.’ So it came about 
that the party saw Commodore Evans, 
who saw the President, who then ap- 
pointed Captain John Brice to gratify 
the Commodore, and as he thought, to 
square himself with Senator Brice by 
appointing his cousin U. S. Fish Com- 
missioner.” 
W HEN the appointment of Captain 
Brice was confirmed I wrote 
him a letter of congratulation, 
and let it go at that, inasmuch as we 
were good friends. Soon after this I 
received a letter from Mr. Logan Car- 
lisle, chief clerk of the Treasury De- 
partment and son of Mr. John G. Car- 
lisle, Secretary of the Treasury, and 
one of my supporters; after sympathiz- 
ing with me on my disappointment he 
said that if I cared to make a summer 
trip to Alaska his father would ap- 
point me Inspector of Salmon Fisher- 
ies in Alaska, which position was un- 
der the control of the Treasury De- 
partment, and which was vacant. 
I decided to apply for the position as
