“Rapid Loader Co.—G entlemen: I lost my Rapid Loader and my rabbit foot at the same time. 
With the Loader I could keep the boys with the repeater guns on the jump. I used it in Dakota, 
duck shooting, and my word for it I saved duck after duck that was crippled and would have been 
otherwise lost; it is the greatest invention since the hanunerless gun came out. Use this if you want 
to as advertising matter. I shoot six months each year, and am known as ‘Pink Edge’ in Forest 
and Stream for the past 20 years. I sendjll. 00, please forward at once and oblige, J. C. French, M.D.”
