Gentlemen; 
I wieh^to let you know tfcat the 
oil which befouled my spark plugs was not 
your oil. I used UOBXLOIL going to Phila¬

understanding, I was supplied there with 
some other oil, which caused the trouble

HITTING vs. MISSING. 
By S. T. Hammond (“Shadow”). Cloth. Price, $1.00. 
Mr. Hammond enjoys among his field companions the 
repute of being an unusually good shot, and one who is 
particularly successful in that most difficult branch of 
upland shooting, the pursuit of the ruffed grouse, or 
partridge. This prompted the suggestion that he should 
write down for others an exposition of the methods by 
which his skill, was acquired. The result is this original 
manual of “Hitting vs. Missing.” We term it original, 
because, as the chapters will show, the author was self- 
taught; the expedients and devices adopted and the 
forms of practice followed were his own. This then may 
be termed the Hammond system of shooting; and as it 
was successful in his own experience, being here set 
forth simply and intelligently, it will prove not less 
effective with others.

KEEPING POSTED 
1. As you read Forest and Stream through 
each week, you are frequently reminded of 
one thing or another that you desire to pur¬ 
chase. Such and such must be supplied 
to make your Shooting, Fishing, Camping 
or Cruising outfit complete. 
2. Possibly you need waterproof shoes, or 
waterproofed clothing. Or a new tent? It 
is your intention to take a much longer trip 
this time, than usual. And you may be 
located where you do not have access to 
sporting goods houses where all of your 
wants can be filled. In fact, even the best 
of us are often in doubt when it comes to 
knowing where to get the thing we 
want at the right price. You wish you 
had a friend at your elbow to suggest. 
3. Our experts are right at your elbow. It 
does not cost you a penny (except your 
postage) to take advantage of their knowl¬ 
edge. They know Where to buy and 
hOW. It is their business—and your ad¬ 
vantage. 
4. Glance carefully over our advertising col¬ 
umns. If you don’t see what you want, 
write in to our Information Department. 
You will receive a full detailed reply—post 
haste—we’re always on the job. 
Isn’t this worth while, if for no other reason 
than to get the right information on how 
to reach your destination by the quickest and 
surest routes—what railroads or steamship 
lines to take? 
Don’t put this off. Co-operate with us by 
telling your relatives and friends, what we 
can do for them. 
Keep posted. Write to

In "Life and Sport on the North Shore of the Lower 
St. Lawrence and Gulf,” Mr. Comeau has made a valu¬ 
able addition to the literature of rod and rifle—and more. 
It is a book of engrossing personal interest to the sports¬ 
man or general reader, and of rare value to the student 
of wild life. 
The author describes the events and experiences of 
fifty 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 ol wood,, 
shore and sea, with plenty of stirring experiences withi 
big game and gamy fish. 
Illustrated, 450 pages. Paper. Postpaid, $2.50.
