Marksmen will appreciate the new departure 

 which this target has inaugurated. The accurate 

 rifleman now gets the true value of his shots, 

 while on old-style targets the record was 60 taint- 

 ed by the element oi chance as to give but u 

 vague idea of the shooter's skill. For instance* 

 on a 200 yard Creedrnoor a " center," scoring 4 

 has toti times the arcaof a "bull," scorings. Every 

 riHeman knows that no degree of skill or care will 

 give immunity from occasional misses, and un- 

 der the old system it was almost the rule for jrood 

 marksmen to be beaten by oud ones. One man 

 would pile up eight snug bulls out of ten, but 

 lose the other two, while hi.- cormietitor, " tiwot- 

 iiill far fours," would scatter his strays all over 

 the board center, blunder one shot into the edge 

 of the bull, and win! Now in deer stalking, and 

 shooting at SO yards, the winner would have 

 wounded and lost one deer, while he loser would 

 have struck down eight, all shot through the 

 heart. Of course there are people who still con- 

 tend that under the old method " all had an equal 

 chance ; " which is very true. But it is also true, 

 that their equality of chance would have 

 been in no wise Impaired if they should have sat 

 down and thrown dice to determine who was the 

 better shot. In contests of tikQl every clement 

 of chance should be eliminated. 



Arrangements have been made fer supplying- 

 thesc targets at a merely nominal price, and it is 

 now an easy mattes to gauge relative skill by 

 uniform practice, anil to communicate definite 

 results without obscuring them by explanatory 



details. The .], post-paid to any 



address in the United States at tifty cents per 

 hundred, and quite a liberal discount is made to
