We started out with the knowledge of what a fisherman wanted and are pleased to find our customers are satisfied with our new goods and new prices. Four separate orders for supplies al ready this season attest the popularity of our goods and prices. While many people like to fish with a split baiabo rod they do not always want to pay a fancy price for highly colored wrapping and pretty flniah. For these customers we have a three-joint, split bambo rod, with extra tip at $1.00 and $1.25, which answers every pur pose and will land any trout in the creek. We have still better ones for $2.00 and $3 00, and fancy ones at $5.00 and $0.00; also some handsome lance wood, as light as a feather, at $4.75. Some people will have steel rods ; we have them from $4.00 up. The same thing may be said of X fine lines aa of fine rods. We have elegant tapered oil-mlk lines at J $1.50 each, which make a fisher- 0 man's heart glad, yet one of our :5-cent lines will land a 15 inch trout as safely.
