FOOT NOTES 
Napoleon said “The strength of an army lies 
in its feet.” 
The success of an outing, the joy of living, be- 
gins with perfect footwear When your feet hurt 
you hurt all over. 
Loose, leaky, ill fitting shoes have kept many 
a hunter sick in camp. 
Whether you climb a mountain trail, play base- 
ball or golf, or walk a country road, your shoes 
must be right. For men, women, misses or boys, 
the Abercrombie & Fitch selection represents the 
best in models and materials — the largest stock 
of outdoor footwear in the world.

HERE IT IS! 
7 HE rifle you have ahvays wanted — A Savage 
Bolt Action. It is the handiest, daintiest, 
most perfectly modelled little shooting-iron 
that a gun-crank ever got his hands on. 
And it is the strongest, simplest, most dependable 
weapon that an explorer ever took onto an Arctic 
ice-floe or into a tropical jungle. And it only 
weighs six pounds. There’s nothing patched-up 
about it — nothing renovated, or adapted or com- 
promised. It isn’t a cut-down musket or a war- 
baby reborn. 
IT IS A BRAND NEW HUNTING-RIFLE— 
newly designed from muzzle to butt-plate — built 
symmetrically around the wonderfully effective 
cartridge it shoots, and combining every desirable 
feature of the best military rifles ivith the special 
refinements ivhich the hunter needs. 
Its action is the simple military bolt — but re- 
dimensioned and improved. It has bigger, stronger 
locking-lugs than the Service rifle. It has a shot- 
gun type safety located on top of the tang — the 
natural, convenient place. The patented magazine 
design makes it possible to use soft nose, Spitzer 
point bullets without danger of deforming the 
points. 
The great popularity and success of the .250-3000 
Savage determined the cartridge for ivhich this 
rifle should be designed. This cartridge is loaded 
with an 87 grain Spitzer point, soft nose bullet 
3000 feet a second, accurately enough to make pos- 
sibles on the 800 yard target and hard enough to 
penetrate % inch boiler plate. 
SPECIFICATIONS 
22 inch tapered high pressure steel barrel with 
integral front sight base, checked pistol grip 
stock and fore-stock, pistol grip capped, oil 
finished one-piece stock, corrugated trigger, 
corrugated steel shotgun butt -plate, white 
metal front and flat top sporting rear sights, 
magazine capacity five cartridges, weight 6 
pounds.
