My Life As Ai\ Indian 
The story is one of the most faithful pictures 
of human life ever drawn. It tells of the life 
of the plains Indian in the old days, when buf¬ 
falo hunting and journeys to war were the oc¬ 
cupations of every man. It describes the every 
day life of the great camp, tells how the men 
and women passed their time, how the young 
men gambled, how they courted their sweet¬ 
hearts, how the traders imposed on the Indians, 
and how the different tribes fought together. 
The one central figure of the book is 
Nat-ah'-ki, 
the beautiful Indian girl who became the 
author’s wife. ,. , , 
Rut it is needless to describe this book to 
readers of Forest and Stream. Those who 
read it as a serial will surely want the volume on 
thtlr library shelves. Price, $1.65, postpaid.

SIXTY THR.EE years ago 
“ Bill” Hamilton, then 20 years of age, set out from St. Louis, 
Mo., with seven other free trappers under the leadership of old I 
Bill Williams. Seven of these eight men are dead, but Hamilton 
still lives out in Montana and still sets his traps. He has written 
the story of his early trapping days and the book has been 
published. It is called 
MY SIXTY YEARS ON 
THE PLAINS 
By W. T. HAMILTON 
It tells of trapping, trading, Indian fighting, hunting, and all 
the many and varied incidents of the trapper’s life. It is full of 
adventure and excitement, but the story is told modestly, and 
there is nothing in it that is lurid. Amid much fighting, there is 
nothing that can be called “blood and thunder, but there is 
much that is history. 
The book has all the charm of the old volumes telling of early 
travel in the West; books which were simple and direct, and in 
which there was no striving for effect. 
It is illustrated by a portrait of the author and one of the 
celebrated Chief Washaki, and by six drawings of old-time 
trapper and Indian life, by Mr. Charles M. Russell, the celebrated 
cowboy artist of Great Falls, Montana.
