B ETTER speak for a case or two of U. M. C. Arrow or Nitro Club Shells at your dealer’s—now. 
Later his stock may be low and your favorite U. M. C. load gone. The 1908 U. M. C. game 
shells and cartridges are the best ever sold. The Steel Lining in the shells—protecting the smoke¬ 
less powder, also your gun and face as well—has proved a great success. Our ballistic expert at the 
Grand American Handicap stated: "These U. M. C. Shells are the finest ever produced by anyone.” 
The winner of one of the main events said: "The U. M. C. Quality is certainly the best ever.” Trap 
shooting is the supreme test. Look at this list of the country’s main honors and then order your 
U. M. C. Shells now.
