The powerful penetration of this arm is shown by the two accompanying cuts. 
On the left, machine steel 5-16 of an inch thick, cleanly penetrated by the .35 calibre 
bullet. The bone on the right, equal in size to the femur of the moose, shows the 
shattering power of two shots in live tissue. Self-loading, with solid breech and 
safe safety.

THE REMINGTON ARMS COMPANY 
ILION. N. Y. 
Agency, 315 Broadway, New York City Sales Office. San Francisco, Cal. 
nels of the Illinois River, it is considerably safer 
to navigate by simply going from one United 
States Light to another. I think it would be 
even safer for a boat of four or five feet draft 
to simply keep near the middle of the river, keep¬ 
ing a little nearer the far shore when coming 
around all of the bends. 
One of the most beautiful sights presents itself 
where the Illinois empties into the Mississippi. 
It empties into it diagonally—and even at a dis¬ 
tance of a mile from its mouth you can see the 
high bluffs of the Illinois shore and their big, 
interesting rugged formation extending for miles 
along the river. There also begin the dikes. 
I do not know why the government finds it 
necessary to construct so many dikes in the river 
between Grafton and Alton, but I presume, like 
everything else it does, that it was necessary; 
anyway. I stdnd ready to accept that version. 
However, as gales and squalls and Fred’s and 
George’s illness did not stop us on Lake Michi¬ 
gan, nor the odor of the canal at Chicago, we 
determined to at least take chances on passing 
the dikes, because we had gotten so accustomed 
to finding the Government lights that we made 
the run from Grafton to Alton, not only with¬ 
out a mishap, but in remarkably quick time. 
Now, when we reached Alton we had been 
away from business and home folks longer than 
we had anticipated, but as we had never run over 
the course from Alton to St. Louis, we decided 
to tie up for the night and make an early start 
in the morning, arriving at St. Louis, Wednesday 
morning, June 13, at 9:30 A. M. 
Now for the cures of chronic indigestion, in¬ 
somnia, nervousness and bad disposition. First, 
it is necessary to create an appetite, and if the 
work on a boat in that healthful open air won’t 
do it, after the “mal de mer” has passed off, simp¬ 
ly go to an undertaker and leave your measure. 
Next, get up at 5 o’clock in the morning and 
prepare and cook your own breakfast. Now, this 
serves a double function. It will satisfy your 
appetite, that is, the food will—it will cure your 
bad disposition—because you will never again 
complain to your wife or cook that the coffee is 
not just exactly as good as “mother used to 
make.” The tough steak, which you had served 
at your club, will have been -entirely forgotten 
and you won’t care whether the “cat stepped on 
the pie or not.” Paring potatoes, washing dishes, 
sweeping the cabin, cleaning brass and using 
yesterday’s handkerchief, because it is cleaner 
than to-day’s, are all good for nervousness, and 
the open air, vibration of the boat, and George’s 
cheerful countenance, because of complete re¬ 
covery, will cure insomnia, and by the time you 
have said your evening prayer, taken an extra 
roll in your blanket, trying to get it a little 
tighter around you, and try to take a last fond 
thought of the folks at home, sunrise will put in 
appearance before yon finally realize that you 
have been asleep at all. Tailors, manicurists, 
chiropodists, osteopaths, and even unpaid bills, 
are all as entirely forgotten as if they never ex¬ 
isted on such a trip in such a boat as The Sim¬ 
mons Company’s new 40ft., 24 horsepower launch
