SHOOTING SUIT. 
Manufactured only by 
G . W SIMMONS & SON, 
BOSTON, MASS. 
THE BEST IN USE. 
ONLY ONE QUALITY MADE AND THAT IS THE 
VERY BEST. 
Flexible, Waterproof, Tan-Color, Duck 
Each article— coat, trousers, vest and hat 
—has the name and manufacturers’ address 
stamped upon it, and no suit is genuine with- 
out it bears this imprint. 
The suit can be sent, securely packed, by 
mail to any part of the United States or Can- 
ada on receipt of $1.25 above the price of 
the suit. 
We make no discount except to the trade. 
The price of the suit complete is $18. 
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 shade." 
The seams and pocket corners are copper 
riveted, and nothing is neglected to make 
the whole suit complete in every way. 
This is what one of our best sportsmen says 
of it, writing from camp ; “Miserable, drench- 
ing rain, pouring down in a perfect deluge, 
as if a second flood had come upon the earth, 
two portages to cross, and a swamp between 
them; that was the prospect before we reached 
our camping ground. Such a swamp, too ; 
almost impassable, for where the ground was 
firm was an almost impenetrable thicket of 
thorns and what not, that looked as if it would 
tear you to pieces. Well, we got to our 
camp, and I must confess I was agreeably sur- 
prised on my arrival. Although I had been 
nearly eight hours under incessant rain, labor- 
ing and striving along under the adverse cir- 
cumstances above mentioned, yet I found 
myself comparatively dry, and my clothes 
wthout a tear. For the benefit of our brother- 
sportsmen, let me advise one of Messrs. Sim- 
mons’ (of Boston, Mass.) Waterproof Suits. 
Oh 1 what a relief it was to find one’s tobacco 
was dry, and that one could light a pipe ; that 
you could laugh at your miserable friend, 
who stood shivering and shaking as if he 
had the palsy ; and then, next morning, oh ! 
what fun it was to see him mending his 
clothes, while I had not a tear to complain of. 
Ventilation, also, that gTeat bugbear of water- 
proof suits, is legislated for in the most inge- 
nious manner. No sportsman should fail to 
supply himself with a suit which is at once 
cheap, practical, and will last analmost indef- 
inite time.” 
Ourl eather Jackets and Vests 
are the gTeat wind protectors. They are made 
from soft, pliable black leather, flannel lined, 
and sell at $9 and $7.
