THE BEST EVER
Do you dosire to look upon something
that will make your . heart ' re
joice, expand your soul, and every drop
of blood in your veins flow with renewed
vigor? If you do, just stop on your way
as you pass up Adams Avenue, and look
into the windows at the Newlin Drug
Company, and view the magnificient,
grand and beautiful display of flies, rods,
line and other fishing paraphernala dis
played therein. It is one of the most el
aborate beautiful, and choicest ever seen
in this city, and could Sir Isaac Wilton
or Christopher North, see them they
would dance with joy.
The flies are most exquisite, the rods
superb, and the lines of the finest texture
and as the fishing season is here and
yeu look at the truly beautiful display you
will imagine you are upon the mountain
stream where
The soft breeze through the branches
swish
Where the poet strings his lyre
And the liar stringsjhis fish.
