ANOTHER SAVAGE ADMIRER. 



Pinkhampton, Col. 

 Savage Arms Co., Utica, N. Y. 



Gentlemen: I am the first sportsman to 

 use one of your rifles in North Park, where 

 I live. I had over 60 sportsmen at my 

 camp the past season, and only 3 of them 

 had Savage rifles; but most all of them will 

 have Savages next season; for I convinced 

 them that it is one of the best rifles made, 

 for big game. 



I killed one of the finest bull elk I ever 

 saw with my Savage. It was i6 1 ^ hands 

 high, had antlers with 6 points and 52 inch 

 horns. I am having him mounted whole, 

 'for the lodge room at my hotel. 



One of my guides took a fancy to my 

 Savage, after I killed the big bull with it, 

 and I sold it to him. I killed the bull dead 

 the first shot. J. S. King.

 " I dunno. I'm told dat daylight lasts 

 twenty-four hours at a stretch. Ef I could 

 get a job in dat locality as night watchman 

 I dunno but I'd be willin' to work." —

" Never mind," she said, as the old gen- 

 tleman's heels flew out from under him, 

 and he landed on his back on the sidewalk 

 in front of her; " never mind, you are not 

 the first man I have had at my feet." 



His system was badly shattered, but he 

 smiled faintly, and the recording angel put 

 her pen back upon the rack, without having 

 made the black mark with which she had 

 been all ready to decorate his page. — Cleve-

The Savage Arms Co. has issued a new 

 catalogue, for 1899, which contains many 

 things of interest to all riflemen. It tells 

 everything that anyone could wish to know 

 about the Savage rifle, and gives many 

 valuable hints and facts on rifle shooting 

 and hunting, in general. When you send 

 for it, mention Recreation. 



" And so you love me — me alone? " 



She ventured to propound. 

 " Yes. more that way," said he, " my own, 



Than when your Ma's around."

I received the Stevens Favorite rifle sent 

 me for 10 subscribers, and thank you very 

 much for so valuable a premium. It is as 

 fine a shooter as any rifle I ever owned.
