" FLOWER OF THE SOUTH” 
And Enjoy Health and Luxury 
A long-cut mixture made from the highest grade, 
oughly ripe, sun-cured, domestic and choicest foreign 
leaf and the only tobacco on the market guaranteed 
without artificial flavoring or ‘“‘doctoring”’ of any kind. 
In blend, rich, mellow, mild and fragrant. 
Because of its quality and purity, “Flower of the 
South’? does not hurt the heart; does not affect the 
nerves; does not dry the throat; and does not bite the 
tongue. 
Sold direct to consumers (it cannot be bought in the 
shops). The saving of middle profits and a special rate 
from the express companies enables us to supply at a 
moderate price the finest and purest tobacco obtainable, 
and affords you the luxury of always getting it in per- 
fect condition. 
Full weight, half-pound tins, $1.00, pounds (in polished 
wood boxes), $2.00, delivered. By arrangement with our 
bank, The American National, they accept small checks 
from our customers without charge for collection. 
We are constantly receiving assurances that ‘‘Flower 
of the South” is the best and most delicious tobacco 
ever smoked.

The ‘Army and Navy Journal,” Jan. 13, 1906, says: 
““Many pipe smokers know that much of the tobacco 
offered for sale is artificially flavored or ‘doctored’ in 
some way to make it appear what it is not, and is there- 
fore injurious to health. Those in search of an absolutely 
pure smoking mixture of superb quality should order a 
box of ‘Flower of the South.’ ”

By Perry D. Frazer. . Illustrated. Cloth, 95 pages.

from the city and for a short time to make his canoe 
his home. With this in view, Mr. Frazer, who regards 
canoeing as a healthful and economical method of nass- 
ing away leisure hours, has written briefly, but attrac- 
tively, of canoes, camping outfits, clothing, firearms and 
ammunition, fishing tackle, photography, and in general 
of cruising, camping and all that pertains to this phase 
of outdoor life. 
Contents: Pleasures and Advantages of Canoes; Ma-

Hell Gate Gun Club. 
New York, March 24.—The appended scores were shot 
on Tuesday, March 20. Only the first three named shot 
their Scores in the morning, having ventured to reach the 
shooting grounds the evening previous. The birds of 
these contestants were of double the fast quality of those 
of the rest of the members, who shot on the arrival of 
the morning train. The snow was 18in. deep on the 
shooting grounds, and the wind blowing a full thirty 
miles per hour. The crust of the snow was hard in the 
morning. Blowing from left to right, when a_right- 
quartering bird left the trap and was killed stone dead in 
the air, the wind would sweep the bird over the hard 
crust out of bounds, there being no wire boundary. 
The first three shooters shot their allotment from some 
that were on hand; the rest were received by express 
in the morning. 
In the afternoon the wind changed to the northward, 
blowing in the shooters’ faces; though not so strong, it 
was squally, with light snow at intervals, all day. In 
fact, the day was most unpropitious, and John Well- 
brock’s score was simply phenomenal from the 28yd. 
mark.
