or lose that fine polish the maker gave them if kept clean with a " Tomlinson Cleaner." It has 



saved many a barrel from ruin, therefore saved dollars for the owner. It is a neat and inexpensive tool, with 

 brass wire gauge sides (which can be replaced when worn, for 10 cents a pair) that will remove all lead, rust- 

 spots, and foreign matter with such neatness that you will have no more trouble keeping your gun right. 

 Our ever-increasing business a proof of its value. All dealers or by mail on receipt of price, $1.00. Fits any 

 rod and lasts a lifetime. An extra pair of sides and tool for rag with each. Gauges .S to .20.

An exchange states that Sam Cable, of 

 Sullivan, Mich., killed more than 1,000 

 quails during the winter of '98. I wrote the 

 man and asked him if this report was cor- 

 rect. He replies as follows: 



" I am happy to inform you that the in- 

 formation you received is correct. I did 

 kill over 1,000 quails last fall." 



Then he goes on to toot his horn about 

 his wonderful shooting, and tries to work 

 in an ad for his dog, which he wants all 

 dog breeders to know about. 



Instead of being " happy to state," Sam 

 should be heartily ashamed of himself. A 

 hog pen is too good for such a man. He 

 should be confined in a skunk den for at 

 least 3 years. — Editor.
