Lefever Shot Guns 
THE GUNS OF LASTING FAME 
The Lefever has been the pioneer in every sound 
improvement in double barrel shot guns for nearly 
half a century. In compensating features, in dur¬ 
ability, style, finish, balance and simplicity, or in 
general all-round shooting qualities it has no equal. 
Any man who owns a Lefever will be proud to 
show it to you and explain its advantages. Send us 
a postal for the beautiful new Lefever Gun Book, 
which tells all about gun making—something you 
ought to understand before you buy a gun.

The “Forest and Stream” Trap Score Book 
Meets the needs of gun clubs and shooters in every particular. The 150 
sheets are heavily ruled—an advantage all scorers will appreciate, particu¬ 
larly when working in a dim light. The horizontal spaces are numbered 
from 1 to 30. Broad perpendicular lines divide these into groups of five, 
which aids the eye of the scorer greatly. Similar heavy lines divide the 
perpendicular spaces into groups of six; thus the squads are distinguish¬ 
able at a glance. 
The paper manifolds easily, and carbon sheets are placed in the book 
for that purpose. 
It contains the American Shooting Association Rules for Live-Bird 
Shooting, for Double Live-Bird Shooting, for Inanimate Target Shooting; 
Hurlingham Revised Live-Bird Rules for single and double rises, and the 
Rose System of dividing purses. Price, $1.00.

bound to draw the horse-loving colonials, and 
they rolled up in their thousands. Colonel Selby 
smiled as he saw the heavy tram loads deposited 
at the Moore Park stopping place and looked 
upon the streams of people coming over the open 
space. 
_ “This is the best thing I’ve struck for some 
time,” said the Colonel to himself. “Six newly 
engaged raw ’uns for Brody to ride. I reckon 
he’ll be about chawed up when he’s tackled two 
of ’em.” 
The Barraba men were well posted in the Wild 
West Show front seats and the boss was among 
them. Colonel Selby had stipulated that Jim 
Brody should appear first. A loud cheer greeted 
Jim as he stepped into the open ground where 
the six horses were placed. 
“All ready saddled!” said Jim. “This is an 
easy job.” 
The cowboys smiled. Colonel Selby smiled and 
his advance agent fairly hugged himself. Jim 
selected a horse, and quick as a cat sprang on 
to his back. The horse gave a mild exhibition 
and Brody dismounted. Four more horses were 
easily disposed of and the Colonel looked glum. 
“The last will settle him,” he said. 
Brody had a tough job with number six, but 
it came off all right. 
“You’ve done your share,” said the Colonel. 
“If one of my men can’t ride your horse I’ll 
shut up shop.” 
# “Don’t be rash,” said Brody. “If one of the 
six can stick on, I’m done.” 
When Brody’s buckjumper' anpeared the men 
from Barraba yelled and their excitement was 
intense. They were requested to keep silent or 
leave the show. 
The six cowboys looked at Brody’s buck-

NAPOLEON A. COMEAU 
In “Life and Sport on the North Shore of the Lower St. Lawrence 
and Gulf,” Mr. Comeau has made a valuable addition to the literature of 
rod and rifle—and more. It is a book of engrossing personal interest to the 
sportsman or general reader, and of rare value to the student of wild life. 
The author describes the events and experiences of 50 years spent in 
the cause of humanity and science in one of the most interesting and least 
known sections of Canada. He writes as one sportsman to his fellows, 
detailing his experiences with the wild things of wood, shore and sea, with 
plenty of stirring experiences with big game and gamy fish.
