p.ead Shot 
Higher 
Velocity 
for the Same Size Load 
Practically all of the powder is 
applied to pushing the shot. There 
is light recoil and low bursting 
pressure. All of the charge is con¬ 
sumed before its full force is 
developed. That’s what you get in 
\ 
the powder of progressive combustion. 
That’s why sportsmen everywhere 
use it. They know it will always be 
the same. That’s why they insift on 
having their shells loaded with Dead 
Shot, the powder of guaranteed stability. 
Write us if your dealer hasn’t it, and 
we’ll refer you to one who has.

Marlin 
Model 1893 
The Special Smokeless Steel barrel, 
rifled deep on the Ballard system, 
creates perfect combustion, develops 
highest velocity and hurls the bullet 
with utmost accuracy and mightiest 
killing impact. 
The mechanism is direct-acting, strong, simple and 
perfectly adjusted. It never clogs. The protecting 
wall of solid steel between your head and cartridge 
keeps rain, sleet, snow and all foreign matter from 
getting into action. The side ejection throws shells 
away from line of sight and allows instant repeat 
shots, always. 
Built in perfect proportion throughout, in many high 
power calibres, it is a quick handling, powerful, 
accurate gun for all big game. 
Every hunter should know all the ffZar/i/i 
characteristics. Send for our free catalog.

Daily Bulletin. 
NO. 3, OCT. 20. 
Ditto was so busy with his duck call that he had 
the bunch craning their necks looking for the mallards. 
“Sparrow” Young is shooting all right now that he 
is using the old gun. 
Jim Skelly and Keplinger regretted that they did not 
make a match to-day with Tom Marshall and Ed. Banks. 
Every time Elmer Shaner looked at “Uncle Bill” 
Cutler he congratulated himself on his present shape. 
By the way, what did Elmer do with his old clothes? 
Ed. Banks had a sore finger. A good many asked 
him wlrat had happened, and he always told them gladly. 
“With the exception of Tom Marshall, this is the 
toughest thing I’ve struck on the grounds,” said Ernie 
Tripp while eating his chicken in the lunch tent. 
NO. 4, OCT. 21. 
Bills crawled into his rain-defying outfit, and was in 
a trance. He did not know how to miss ’em. 
Tom Marshall showed the bunch he was a duck 
hunter by sticking through the rain. 
Charlie North has discovered a new use for carrier 
rubbers, and talks of getting the idea patented. 
“Afraid-of-the-rain” Ed. Banks was at the ground but 
did not leave the shelter of the house. When the squad 
boy was calling off the scores of his old squad, and 
came to Banks’ name, he shouted, “That guy didn’t 
shoot.” 
Elmer was disappointed at not getting a berth for the 
6:10 instead of the 11:45. 
Luther Squier was feeling mighty fine at the finish, 
for his cash balanced to a cent. Luther is a past- 
master at office work, and knows where to look for the 
errors. A good supply of apples on hand at all times 
kept his disposition most pleasant. 
Elmer left four hours ahead of schedule, and took no 
unfinished business home with him. The rabbits at 
Slippery Rock are hunting their holes, for he and the 
Governor (a youth of only 80 years) are going on the 
warpath.
