PUBLISHER'S DEPARTMENT. 



The Marlin Fire Arms Company, New 

 Haven, Conn., calls attention to the new 25-36 

 Marlin cartridge, designed for use in the Model 

 1893 Marlin Repeater which can now be 

 furnished for this calibre in all the various 

 lengths and styles of barrel and magazine, 

 straight and pistol grip, regular or take down. 

 List prices for this calibre are the same as for the 

 regular Model 1893 rifles, and are subject to the 

 same discounts. The factory cartridge is loaded 

 with 36 grains of powder and has a 106 grain 

 bullet with metal patched sides and soft lead 

 point ; but owing to the mechanism of the 

 Marlin action, cartridges can be used varying in 

 weight and length from the empty shell, as a 

 minimum, up to the full sized cartridge as a 

 maximum, thus allowing the use of varying pro- 

 portions of powder and lead. 



Inasmuch as the action is the same, in take 

 down form, barrel portions can be furnished for 

 the 25-36, 32-40, and 38-55, all adjustable to the 

 same action. 



The Marlin Company is now prepared to fill 

 orders promptly for this as well as for all other 

 goods in its line. 



The Ideal Manufacturing Co., New Haven, 

 Conn., is now ready to furnish the number 3 

 special and the number 6 regular reloading tools 

 for the new 7 Marlin 25-36 cartridge. The bullet 

 illustrated here has six grooves and weighs 104 

 grains. It is said that the mixture of one part 

 tin to about ten parts of lead produces the best 

 results, Perfection moulds are also made that 

 will enable the shooter to make heavier or lighter 

 weight bullets as may be desired. Full descrip- 

 tion of these tools and bullets may be found in 

 the Ideal Hand-book, which will be sent to all 

 who ask for it. 



The Overman Wheel Co. has made great im- 

 provements in the manufacture of baseball 

 masks ; they are making them out of better ma- 

 terial than has ever been used heretofore by other 

 makers. Victor masks are made of steel instead of 

 cheap iron, and in consequence are much safer. 

 Much may be expected from this company in the 

 line of improvements in athletic goods. They 

 have the reputation of using the finest materials 

 only, and they sustain that reputation honestly. 

 This is more than I can say of a certain other 

 house in this line.

Dear Sirs : — I have used your ' ' Three-in- 

 One " compound for some time and will say that 

 it is the best material for a bicycle or gun I 

 have ever used. I always had trouble keeping 

 my gun clean of rust while about the bay or 

 river, but now I leave it in the shanty sometimes 

 for three weeks and never find a spot of rust on 

 it, as I always clean it with "Three-in-One" after 

 using. Respectfully,
