Mention Recreation. 



An Irishman boarded a train in which 

 every seat except one was occupied by 2 

 people. This seat had as occupants a young 

 sport and a large shaggy dog. The Irish- 

 man stood by the seat expecting that room 

 would be made for him. The young man 

 did not take^ the hint, but regarded the 

 other, who' was poorly dressed, with ill 

 disguised scorn. At last the Irishman re- 

 marked : "That's a foine looking dog ye 

 have with ye. What breed is it?" 



"It's a cross between a skunk and an 

 Irishman," was the sneering answer. 



"Sure, then, it's a relative of both of us," 

 was the instant retort. — Argonaut.

THE ONL 



GUN OIL, 





lubricates the mechanism, prevents rust 

 on the metal parts and cleans and 

 polishes the stock. For cleaning out the 

 residue of burnt powder, especially 

 smokeless powder, it is unequaled.
