MARK 
There are many fishing-rods on the market that 
are good, really good; but no other rod combines so many of the best' 
qualities of all rods as does the 
“BRISTOL” STEEL FISHING ROD 
To see it—to fish with it—to know it—is to appreciate its strength, light¬ 
ness, pliancy, casting power and to be sure of results. 
They may be seen at your dealers—but insist on the rod with “Bristol” 
stamped on the reel-seat—that’s for your protection. 
Send for our beautiful color catalog—it’s free. Page 28 has a special 
"Bristol” feature—may be found only on “Bristol” Rods.

Men I Have Fished With. 
Sketches of character and incident with rod and gun from 
childhood to manhood; from the killing of little fishes 
and birds to a buffalo hunt. By Fred Mather. Illus¬ 
trated. Price, $2. 
It was a happy thought that prompted Mr. Fred Mather 
to write of his fishing companions. The chapters were 
received with a warm welcome at the beginning, and have 
been of sustained interest. The “Men I Have Fished 
With” was among the most popular stories of papers ever 
presented to Forest and Stream readers.
