Trying to bold a drove of cattle together in a
drenching rain means an amount of exposure which a
few can withstand trithont serious results. If
sickness does not follow , it will be found that such 8
hardship usually brings on rheumatism and similar i
complaints. At such times a " Fish Brand Slick
er" is worth its weight in gold , and is invaluable
to any one exposed to stormy weather. For all sad- q
die uses , you want a Pommel Slicker , which keeps
the entire saddle , pommel , and cantle dry , and com- "
pletely envelopes the rider from head to foot. He I
can't get metwhatever ihetveatker. And , besides
keeping him dry , it keeps him warm. Every range
rider has one. Why shouldn't you ? Bewareof n
worthless imitations ; every garment stamped with
; • Fish Brand" Trafe Mark. Don't accept any -I
inferior coat when you can have the " Fish Brand
Slicker" delivered without extra cost Particulars
