REMINGTON REVOLUTION 
I he highest trap shooting honor goes to the Remington Shot Gun this year, for with it W. H. Heer 
won the year’s average for 1906, scoring 96.3%—the highest year’s score ever made. 
The R^emirvgtorv Autoloading R^ifle and Shot Gun have met with universal success. 
Remingtons are the guns of the present and future.

imals in this State concerning which there is 
much fear and ignorance, and toward which 
ire is so much cruelty almost uni for ml- shown 
a relentless and unjust warfare.” 
A portion of the bulletin is devoted to dis- 
jsioning the public concerning certain “myths, 
lacies or folk lore of serpents,” which, Prof, 
rface says, are current in some parts of Penn- 
ivania. 
The wholesale puncturing of popular ideas 
out reptiles is illustrated by the following 
f icimens: 
Snakes do not sting with their tongues. 
Snakes do not charm birds and people. 
The green serpents are not venomous. 
There is no such creature as a hoop snake, 
lich rolls like a hoop. 
I There is no horned snake with a venomous 
rn at the end of its tail. 
Snakes are not blind once a month, nor regu- 
ly during “dog days.” 
Snakes do not moult or shed their skins each 
>nth. 
Serpents cannot blow out or spit poison. 
Snakes do not chase and attack people with- 
t provocation. 
Serpents and other reptiles are not slimy. 
Mo_ certain kinds of snakes milk or suck cows. 
! Ct isn’t true that when snakes are killed their 
(Is do not die until the sun goes down or until 
thunders. 
To kill a snake and turn it over will not bring

Snakes do not spring or jump from the ground 
their victims. They do not strike from a truly 
| led position. 
| Nothing in the belief that when a firearm is 
nted at a snake the reptile draws its own bead 
i it is impossible to miss it or to shoot it 
i ywhere but in the head. 
snake cannot be made to -“put out its legs” 
L putting it into the fire. 
Snakes do not lose their venom by being de- 
yed of water for six days or more. 
I Snakes have no medicinal qualities, and the 
flowin'- popular notions are myths: That galls 
| snakes are an antidote for snake bites; that 
i ir oil is good for rheumatism, baldness and 
tfness; that wearing their skin will cure rheu- 
( t* srr } a ud stiffness; that a snake heart, oil or 
od is good for consumption or other ills; that 
ike flesh should be eaten for blood disorders; 
. t a second bite of the snake in the same place 
1 cure or counteract the first bite; that rattles 
; snakes are charms. 
‘It is a remarkable fact.” says Prof. Surface, 
at in some parts of this State the oil of snakes 
i 5 a very high commercial value for the sup- 
>ed curative qualities. This is founded on 
lerstition.”
