The Famous 
/ 
Gives the Best Light at Any Price 
When you pay more than the Rayo 
price for a lamp, you are paying for extra 
decorations that cannot add to the quality 
of the light. You can’t pay for a better 
light, because there is none. An oil light 
has the least effect on the human eye, and 
the Rayo Lamp is the best oil lamp made, 
though low in price. You can pay $5, $10, 
or $20 for some other lamp, and although 
you get a more costly lamp, you can’t 
get a better light than the white, mellow, 
diffused, unflickering light of the low- 
priced Rayo. 
Has a strong, durable shade-holder. This sea¬ 
son’s burner adds to the strength and appearance. 
Made of solid brass, nickeled, and easily polished. 
Once a Rayo User, Always One 
Dealers Everywhere. If not at yours, write for descriptive 
circular to the nearest agency of the

Nursing vs Dosing. 
A Treatise on the Care of Dogs in Health and Disease. 
By S. T. Hammond (“Shadow”), Author of “Train¬ 
ing vs. Breaking.” 161 pages. Cloth. Price, $1.00. 
Mr. Hammond believes that more dogs are killed by 
injudicious doctoring than by disease, and the present 
work is a protest against the too free use of medicine 
when dogs are sick. The author has given especial atten¬ 
tion to many of the troubles which especially afflict small 
dogs kept in the house, and likely to suffer from lack of 
exercise and from over-feeding; and boys and girls 
owning dogs—as well as children of larger growth—may 
profitably study and ponder this volume.

PLANNING A HOUSEBOAT 
Will be a leisure-hour occupation in many a family this winter. Houseboating has 
come among us to stay, and promises to be even more popular than in England 
itself. Every one who is interested in houseboats or who contemplates taking up 
this feature of outdoor life, should read Mr. Albert Bradlee Hunt’s practical, and, 
at the same time, beautiful work on the houseboat and its adaptation to American 
waters. 
HOUSEBOATS AND HOUSEBOATING 
Covers the entire range of its title, considers the use and opportunities of the house¬ 
boat; their relation to city and suburban life; construction, furnishing, motive power, 
and all the thousand and one details, the knowledge of which spells the difference 
between success and failure in houseboat building and houseboat life. 
Details, plans, drawings and specifications illuminate the text, while life on 
houseboats is interestingly described. Some of the more noted English and 
American houseboats and the life thereon are also described at length with illus¬ 
trations. Buckram, heavy paper, sumptuously illustrated.
