Y OU know Wilson’s Snipe- cork¬ 
screwing “wizards of the ™ wetlands ’ ’ 
And you know, too, how you can al¬ 
most step on them in the marshes without see¬ 
ing them—brown feathers blended with brown 
grass. 
When you shoot Wilson’s snipe, you’ve got to 
mark where your birds fall. You have got to 
kill them dead or marking where they fall won’t 
do any good. They simply vanish if only crip¬ 
pled. 
If you shoot a Lefever and mark yo.ir birds, 
you will bag them every time, for Leferer guns 
are built to kill game dead. Any man who has 
held a Lefever on the mottled backs of a jumping 
pair of Wilson’s snipe does not question what 
the result will be. He knows it. 
TWO CLEAN KILLS 
The reason Lefever guns kill clean and sure 
and far is Lefever Taper Boring.

should know before you buy a gun. It explains 
the whys and wherefores, and will convince you 
that it pays to buy the best. Shall we send you

THE 
PARKER 
GUN 
During 1909 Mr, Fred Gilbert shot at 19310 targets, breaking 
18425, or 95.4W. This included double and single targets, both 
in practice and handicap events. Of course Mr. Gilbert shot 
as he always does, his Old Reliable Parker Gun. 
Mr. Woolfolk Henderson, during the year 1909, shot at 9495 targets and broke 9008 or 94.87^. 
By making this splendid record Mr. Henderson won high average among amateurs shooting 
at more than 3000 targets. Mr. Henderson also shot the Old Reliable Parker Gun. 
What better proof can there be of the sterling shooting qualities of this gun that so justly 
has earned the title of the Old Reliable Parker Gun.

T OU don’t know me, perhaps, but if you smoke tobacco 
in any form, you ought to. 
Turkish-born, I raise on my own land in the levant the 
rarest, finest of Turkish leaf ; and import it myself.

T know Turkish tobacco. It has been my life work; and Turk¬ 
ic ish tobacco is a science. My business is small, but exclusive. 
Every pound I sell goes to connoisseurs who buy only the BEST.
