NEWFOUNDLAND 
A Country of Fish and Came 
A Paradise for the Camper and Angler 
Ideal Canoe Trips 
The country traversed by the System of the Reid Newfoundland Company, Ltd., is exceedingly rich in 
all kinds of Fish and Game. All along the route of the Railway are streams famous for their Salmon and 
Trout fishing, also Caribou barrens. Americans who have been fishing and hunting in Newfoundland 
say there is no other country in the world in which so good fishing and hunting can be secured and with 
such ease as in Newfoundland. Information, together with illustrated Booklet and Folder, cheerfully 
forwarded upon application to

In Writivri to Advertisers mention Forest and Stream. It ■will 
and were striking at each other and 
rolling on their backs for all the world 
like two kittens. We watched them for 
maybe half a minute, though it seemed 
much longer, and then they disappeared 
very suddenly, and the opening in which 
they had been playing was filled momen- 
tarily by a yellow flash as a lioness 
bounded across and away from us. She 
vanished in the bush as quickly as she 
appeared, without offering a possible 
shot. The presence of cubs complicated 
matters and we took up the advance 
again with rather more caution than 
before. 
In another twenty yards or so, we 
were brought up all standing by an angry 
growl on our right and very close. We 
peered through the tangle without being . 
able to see anything. The tracker held | 
up two forefingers to indicate that we 
had another lion to deal with now, but ; 
we were only able to make out, by the 
irritated rumble, that he was making off 
at right angles to our line of advance. , 
We went on again but did not get very 
far before we were once more halted 
by a short growl, this time on our left. 
Facing about quickly, I just managed to 
spot a maned lion about fifteen yards off 
and slightly in the rear of us. It was 
just a glimpse before the bush swallowed 
him up, too, and again I failed to get a 
shot. Once more we went on. We had 
only about seventy-five yards to go be- 
fore the scrub thinned out higher up 
on the hillside and we got through 
without further incident except a view 
of a lioness bounding over a rock some 
way above us and another going full 
pelt over a ridge two hundred yards 
away, both utterly impossible shots. 
We went back to where we had first dis- 
turbed the lions and the tracks showed 
that there had been five full-grown 
beasts besides the two cubs, a pretty 
handful to deal with if there had been 
any trouble. The band had dispersed in 
different directions and though we fol- 
lowed one or two of the tracks for some 
time, we did not succeed in coming up 
again to any of the beasts, and as we and 
the lions had now thoroughly disturbed 
the haunt of our original quarry, the 
buffalo, we gave it up and went back 
to camp for breakfast. 
1 DID at last get my lion, in the last 
* week of the trip. On this occasion 
I ran into two lions in some bush. The 
male, a handsome, maned fellow, was 
too quick, for me, but the lioness gave 
me a shot as she was moving off. I hit 
her too far back, but just under the 
spine, and the heavy 400 grain bullet ' 
knocked all the fight out of her. Suli- 
mani, for the first and only time, lost his 
head, and loosed off with my light rifle, 
hitting her amidships, but again too far 
back to touch a vital spot. She slunk 
off to some thick stuff a few yards off 
and I ran in and finished her with a 
brain shot. We were only a mile away 
from the wagon and I sent back the 
second gunbearer to bring the skinner. 
The latter duly turned up and the rest 
of the safari with him. Each man shook I 
me violently by the hand and made as i 
much noise as he could. I was glad that 1 
identify you.
