At an inn in a small Georgia town, a 

 greasy darky apoeared in the door at noon 

 and rang the big handbell, which an- 

 nounced dinner. The coon dog, which had 

 been asleep in the sunshine, awakened, 

 raised his nose toward the sky, and howled 

 dolorously. 



The darky stopped ringing the bell, 

 scowled and yelled at him : 



"Dawg ! dawgl Yo' shet up ! Yo' don't 

 hafta eat dis dinna !" — Philadelphia Led- 

 ger. 



I received the Al Vista camera in due time 

 and thank you much for it. It is strictly 

 all right. I do not see how you can give 

 so valuable a premium for so few sub- 

 scriptions. O. Drum, Bartlesville, I. T.

I note your stand against the automatic 

 gun and am with you to the limit. At the 

 same time, I consider a bird dog, a man 

 of swinish proclivities and any gun a 

 mighty bad combination and one likely to 

 do even more harm than an automatic. In 

 the fall of 1900 I was living at Snohomish, 

 Wash., and put in a day hunting blue 

 grouse. I used a pump gun and walked up 

 my birds. I succeeded in killing 6, but 

 soon found I was not the only hunter in 

 those woods. Four men, using double 

 guns, and aided by 4 dogs, were ahead of 

 mc. If they fired one shot, they fired 600. 

 I was told later that they killed 300 

 grouse. Could 4 devils with automatics 

 have done more ?

THE SAME OLD STORY. 



R. M. FULTON. 



I've hunted and fished in many climes 

 But it always seems to me 

 That we always fish too close to land 

 Or else too far at sea. 



And when we take a hunting trip 

 We're sure to meet our fate ; 

 We've either started out too soon 

 Or else a little too late. 



I wonder if the weather 



And the time will be in touch 



To make things right for our next jaunt — 



I doubt it very much.
