You can use in the same rifle, without change of pans, 22 short Inmr 
and long-rifle cartridges. This is an excellent arm for target ^rk as 
well as rabbits, squirrels, hawks and all small game up to 200 yards 
The ammunition is cheap, giving much enjoyment at little expense. 
In our four distinct models—the solid top is always a protection and

ant repeat shots, without the possibility of throwing an ejected shell

makes them the easiest of all .22s to keep clean.

Hunting Without a Gun, 
Sam Lovers Boy. 
By Rowland E. Robinson. Price, $1.25. 
Sam Lovel’s Boy is the fifth of the series of Danvis 
books. No one has pictured the New Englander with 
so much insight as has Mr. Robinson. Sam Level and 
Huldah are two of the characters of the earlier books 
in the senes, and the boy is young Sam, their son, who 
grows up under the tuition of the coterie of friends that 
we know so well, becomes a man just at the time of the 
Civil War, and carries a musket in defense of what he 
believes to be the right.
