HITTING vs. MISSING. 
By S. T. Hammond (“Shadow”). Cloth. Price, $1. 
Mr. Hammond enjoys among his field companions the 
repute of being an unusually good shot, and one who is 
particularly successful in that most difficult branch of 
upland shooting, the pursuit of the ruffed grouse or 
partridge. This prompted the suggestion that he shquld 
write down for others an exposition of the methods by 
which his skill was acquired. The result is this original 
manual of “Hitting vs. Missing.” We term it original, 
because, as the chapters will show, the author was self- 
taught; the expedients and devices adopted and the 
forms of practice followed were his own. This then may 
be termed the Hammond system of shooting; and as it 
was successful in his own experience, being here set 
forth simply and intelligibly, it will prove not less effec¬ 
tive with others.

This work, from the pen of “Shadow,” will have a 
hearty welcome. It comes from one who writes from full 
knowledge. “The results of more than fifty years of

assure the reader that no course of conduct is advised, 
no treatment recommended, no remedy prescribed, that 
has not been thoroughly tried and tested by the writer, 
and is believed to be entirely trustworthy in every re¬ 
spect.” Sent postpaid on receipt of price, $1.00.

Building Motor Boats and 
Managing Gasolene Engines 
are discussed in the book 
“HOW TO BUILD A LAUNCH FROM PLANS” 
A complete illustrated work on the building of motor 
boats and the installing, care and running of gasolene 
motors. By Charles G. Davis. With 40 diagrams, 
9 folding drawings and 8 full-page plans. Price, 
postpaid, $1.50. 
The author is a builder and designer of national repu¬ 
tation. All the instruction given is definite and com¬ 
prehensive, 40 diagrams, 9 folding drawings and 8 full- 
page plans. That portion of the boat devoted to the use 
and care of gas engines should be most carefully perused 
by every individual who operates one. The book is well 
worth the price asked for it.

Gas Engines and Launches. 
Their Principles, Types and Management. By Francis 
K. Grain. 132 pages. Price, $1.25. 
Here is a pocket manual indispensable to every man 
who uses a motor-boat. It deals in simple untechnical 
fashion with the running of the marine gas engine, and 
with the difficulties that the marine gas engineer is likely 
to meet with. These engines are described, some pages 
are devoted to launches in general, with practical advice 
to the man who contemplates purchasing a power boat. 
The main feature of the book, however, is a clear descrip¬ 
tion of the difficulties met with in running a gas engine, 
their causes and how to remedy them. In this discussion 
all technicalities are avoided, and the author has boiled 
down a vast amount of practical knowledge into small 
space and into every-day language. The amateur power 
boat man needs this book, for it will save him much time 
and trouble, and probably not a little money.

Small Yacht Construction 
and Kigging. 
A complete manual of practical Boat and Small Yacht 
Building. With two complete designs and numerous 
diagrams and details. By Linton Hope. 177 pages. 
Cloth. Price, $3. 
The author has taken two designs for practical demon¬ 
stration, one of a centerboard boat 19ft. waterline and 
the other a cruising cutter of 23ft. waterline. Both de¬ 
signs show fine little boats, which are fully adapted to 
American requirements. Full instructions, even to the 
minutest detail, are given for the building of both these 
boats. The information is not confined to these yachts 
alone; they are merely taken as examples; but what is 
said applies to all wooden yacht building according to the 
best and most approved methods.

Bea-rs I Have Met—And Others. 
By Allen Kelly. Paper, 209 pages. Price, 60 cents. 
After some years of peaceful slumber, Mr. 
Kelly’s most excellent book of bear stories was 
roused to life by a recent criticism of Mr. Seton, 
the question being where Mr. Seton got his ma¬ 
terial for his bear stories, for a number of people 
suggested that it was taken from Mr. Kelly’s 
book. With the merits of this controversy “our¬ 
selves have naught to do,” but the matter in Mr. 
Kelly’s book is excellent, interesting and worthy 
of prettv much anv author.
