REPEATING RIFLE v 
You can 
no better gun for tar¬ 
get work and all small game 
up to 200 yards. Without change 
of mechanism it handles .22 short, 
long or long-rifle cartridges, perfectly. The 
deep Ballard rifling develops maximum power 
and accuracy and adds years to the life of rifles. 
The solid top is protection from defective cartridges—prevents 
powder and gases from being blown back. The side ejection 
never lets ejected shells spoil your bead and allows quick, accurate 
repeat shots. With simple take-down construction, removable 
action parts—least parts of any .22—it is the quickest and easiest 
to clean. A great vacation rifle. Ask any gun dealer.

SEA MONSTERS. 
A loan shark bathes in the summer sea 
By the sandy Jersey shores. 
And an inky squid and a stinging ray 
Swear they will have his gore. 
A devilfish comes at their call to arms 
And a Portuguese man-of-war, 
And the dogfish bark at the bold loan sharp 
And he bathes on the sandy bar. 
“Let the swordfish draw and the seahorse neigh, 
And the drumfish set to drumming.” 
He wallows away in the nice, clean spray, 
And he doesn’t know what’s a-coming. 
The wavering seagull flaps its wings. 
And the wild waves wildly wave him, 
But the Jerseacow is angered now, 
And nothing on earth can save him. 
The gray crab catches him tinder the tide, 
The dogfish snap at his heels, 
And they shock him stiff with a current supplied 
By a school of electric eels. 
Then off they swim, to a funeral march, 
Played on a comb by a merman. 
And bury him dank in the uttermost bank 
While a puff-fish preaches the sermon.
