M. Young President; H. A. Pope, Vice-President; J. A.

and other improvements will be made before the snow 
flies. 
Shooters take slumps, possibly worse than baseball 
players, and the shooters at Richmond, Ya., seem to be 
off in that line at present. One thing that should at¬ 
tract the attention of shooters generally, is that this club 
has adopted the plan of variation. Some shoots are on 
the English plan, both barrels at one target, and also 
shooting doubles.

Ohio, though the day was hot, Buchanan and Webber 
tied on 46 out of 50. Scores at 25 targets: Smith 24,

NURSING vs. DOSING. 
A Treatise on the Care of Dogs in Health and Disease. 
By S. T. Hammond (“Shadow”) author of “Training 
vs. Breaking.” 161 pages. Cloth. Price, $1. 
Mr. Hammond believes that more dogs are killed by 
injudicious doctoring than by disease, and the present 
work is a protest against the too free use of medicine 
when dogs are sick. The author has given especial at¬ 
tention to many of the troubles which especially afflict 
small dogs kept in the house, and likely to suffer from 
lack of exercise, and from over-feeding; and • boys and 
girls owning dogs—as well as children of larger growth— 
may profitably study and ponder this volume.
