Don’t go into t(je woods without equipping yourself with a strong, serviceable vest—preferably of corduroy or some such stout, hard cloth.

Above all, if you are going into a section of the country where the brush is any way thick don’t, commit the unpardonable blunder of trying to wear a loose shirt, with nothing over it or—worse yeta woolly sweater. It won’t last long. The impish little brambles just dote on sweaters! —July Outing.
