ONLY ONE QUALITY MADE AND THAT IS THE 
VERY BEST. 
Each article— coat, trowsers, vest and lint— 
have the name and manufacturer’s address 
stamped upon it, and no suit is genuine without 
it hears this imprint. 
The suit can be sent, securely packed, by mnil 
to any part of the United States or Cauada on 
receipt of *1.25 above the price of the suit. 
We mukc no discount except to the trade. We 
make but one quality, and that is the yery best. 
The price of the suit complete is *13. 
The suit consists of coat, trousers, vest, and 
choice of either cap with havelock, or hat. 
The material is of the best quality of duck, 
waterproofed by a patent process. The color is 
that known as “ dead grass 6hade.” 
The seams aud pocket corners are riveted, and 
nothing is neglected to make the whole 6uit com- 
plete in every way. 
OUR PATENT DECOYS

oersomc, wooden decoys. The birds are hollow, 
and six of them occupy about the space of one 
wooden decoy. The Duck Decoys of all kinds

s made of tan-colored duck; light, easily trans- 
posed Size, 7 ft. by 8 ft. Price, $10 complete, 
made on the umbrella principle, folding into a 
neat roU 3 feet long. 
In tbe Judges’ report at Philadelphia they were 
oemmended for excellence in every part. Very 
novel and \ racticable ; adapted to all out-of-door 
purposes where lawn, beach, hunters and camp 
tents are used ; quick folding ; all sides stroDgly 
fortified; enables them to stand against wind 
and rain. Rev. P. B. Savage, of Albany, N. Y., 
who camps ont in Florida in winter, and the 
Adirondacks in summer, writes this about the 
tents : 
Aidant, July 31, 1877. 
Sirs— I have Jnst returned from a three-weeks’ 
camping expedition In the Adirondacks, and have 
had the three tents bought of you pat to the severest 
tests of exposure both as to wind and storm, and I 
do m*'8t unhes tatingly say they are the most com- 
plete thing of the kind I ever used. 
1st. They are easily put up or taken down. 
2d. They are perfectly waterproof. 
3d. They are a good height and all the room Is 
available. 
Our party asked for no better. They were admired 
by aU who saw them, and one party Insisted on buy- 
ing one of ours that was to spare. Rev. Dr. Duryea, 
of Brooklyn, and the Rev. Dr. Irwin, of Troy, both 
Indorse what I say about your tent. WUb kind re- 
gards, yours truly, F. B. Savagb.

A recent notice In the Fobest and Stream, 
from a correspondent, says : 
Whenever a sportsman, or 'even one who does not 
claim the distinction, flnds a really good and useful 
article. It Is no more than fair that he should let 
others have the beneflt of his knowledge. For tills 
reason we would call attention to the Tan-colortd 
Leather Shooting or Fishing fruits. made by G. W 
SI0MON9 A tON. of Boston, Ma'S., the mannfac 
turers of the famous “ Boston 8hootlDg Suit.” 
I saw these goods advertised In your paper, and 
wrote to the parties for samples. I found the mt- 
terlal as soft and pliable as a piece of k>d. I tested 
It by soaking in water twelve hours, and found it as 
nearly waterproof as one could desire, and after dry- 
ing was h pplly surprised to And it bad not stiffened 
In the least. I have since then received a full suit- 
coat, vest and breeches— ordered by letter from 
measure taken by myself. 
The goods are splendidly made, well lined with 
flannel ; In fact I do not Bee how they can be Im- 
proved. 
My friends are unanimous In their verdict that Q. 
W. Simmons A Son’s leath* r goods cannot bo ex- 
celled In qua lty or beaten In price.
