“Now I pray unto every creature that 
hath heard or read this little treatise of 
whatever estate or condition he be that 
there where there is too little of good lan¬ 
guage that of their benignity and grace 
they will add more, and there where there 
is too much superfluity that they will also 
abridge it as may seem best by their good 
and wise discretion. Not presuming that I 
had over much knowledge and ability to 
put into writing this royal disportful and 
noble game of hunting so .effectually that 
it might not be submitted to the correction 
of all gentle hunters. And in my simple 
manner as best I could and as might be 
learned of old and many diverse gentle 
hunters, I did my business in this rude 
manner to put the craft and the terms and 
the exercise of this said game more in re¬ 
membrance and openly to the knowledge 
of all lords, ladies, gentlemen and women, 
according to the customs and manners used 
in the high noble court of this Realm of 
England.” 
A HOME MADE ROD 
(continued from page 91) 
unduly weaken the guide, if you do. Pro¬ 
ceed carefully, and critically examine your 
work from time to time. The various 
steps are shown in the illustration. 
Now take fine sandpaper, about No. I, 
or Cut a long, narrow strip. Roll it, 
rough side out, into a cylinder just fitting 
into the hole of the bead in the guide. By 
means of this, enlarge and smooth the 
hole in the bead, until you have worked 
out all, or nearly all, the white portion. 
Then with the pinchers carefully ’bend up 
the round end of the, guide to an angle 
of 60 or 70 degrees, being extremely care¬ 
ful not to crack the bead in the process. 
Now, with a very small knife blade, or 
a little drill, make a hole in the larger, 
round end of the shank, lengthwise, w'hich 
is to be fitted over the end of the tip of 
the rod. Smooth off any irregularities; 
and you have a tip guide, which will com¬ 
pare favorably in looks with a guide cost¬ 
ing a dollar, or more. The dimensions of 
my tip guide are: length one and seven- 
eighths inches, width at tip one-sixteenth 
inch, bead socket one-quarter inch. 
A FTER shaping the bead, the stand¬ 
ing guides are made somewhat dif¬ 
ferently. The material is sheet alu¬ 
minum, not thinner than 3-32 of an inch. 
With sharp scissors, cut out a shaped 
liece, similar to the flattened end of the 
aluminum wore used in making the tip 
guide, but correspondingly larger. 
Similarly work over the rounding top 
ind edges, forming a pocket for the bead 
ind lapping one side of the point over 
he other. Next insert the bead, and with 
he pinchers neatly work the aluminum 
■dge down to it, having an aluminum back 
■ntirely covering one side of the bead, and 
he edge of the aluminum lapped down on 
he other. Now' drill a hole through the 
■luminum back into the hole of the bead, 
nd carefully work out a ring of aluminum 
round the bead. 
Neatly smooth and shape this ring with 
fine, sharp file, being careful not to re- 
nove too much aluminum. With a cylin-
