nerves; does not dry the throat; and does not bite the 
tongue.

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.

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 tc 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.’ ” 


Streator Shoot. 
STREATOR, IIl., April 17.—The fine weather to-day did 
not draw as large an attendance of shooters as could 
have been desired by the management. Even the travel- 
ing men were attracted elsewhere, where business or 
duty called them, as only Frank Riehl showed up, to- 
gether with the well-known W. Tramp Irwin, who has 
often been here in the capacity of manager. 
The club here is composed of some of the business 
men, who shoot but little, and they never go away from 
home to shoot any. Thus they do not get acquainted 
with the shooters from other towns. 
There was some wind behind the targets, that caused 
them to jump and duck, but the greatest trouble was the 
flight of the targets from the magautrap. The trap was 
old, and while it was fairly well regulated, the twisting 
and irregular high and low targets fooled the ‘best of 
?em,’’ who have not shot over a magautrap for a year 
or more. 
The day was bright and fine. 
Mr. Frank Riehl won the high professional average 
and there was a young Mr. Brown who won the amateur; 
neither made the sccre they are capable of making. 
The best shots from Ottawa and Marsailles were pres- 
ent. The scores:

SIDE LIGHTS OF TRADE. 
Spratt’s Patent (America), Ltd., 450 Market street, 
Newark, N. J., has just closed the largest and most 
extensive show season in the history of the company, 
though there are still a number of dog shows to be pro- 
vided for. This great firm can provide everything es- 
sential to the well-being of the dog—foods, medicines, 
grooming appliances, kennels, dishes, etc.—and their 
manufactures are equally ample concerning fowls, cats, 
birds, etc. Send for their illustrated catalogue. 
The Dickey Bird Target & Trap Co., Kansas City., 
Mo., has incorporated with a capital stock of $60,000. A 
new plant, 60 by 100 feet, is now in course of construc- 
tion. The company announces that it is doing an ex- 
tensive business in the United States and Canada. 
PUBLISHERS’ DEPARTMENT. 
In our business columns this week, A. F. Meisselbach 
& Bro., 23 Prospect street, Newark, N. J., call attention 
to the many excellent points of the reels which they 
manufacture. In particular, they explain the simplicity, 
perfect mechanism and adaptability of their ‘“‘Takapart”’ 
reel, and a cut further illustrates, to the reader, its de- 
sign and perfection. Their booklet of reels is sent to 
any applicant. 
The Deshler Mail Box Co., Deshler, O., call attention 
to the advantages of the ‘‘Jones Aquarium,” a minnow 
pail of correct shape, supplied with an air tank, which, 
through a small tube, supplies a constant stream of air 
bubbles from the bottom during six hours, thereby 
enabling this company to guarantee that their minnow 
pail will keep 125 good-sized minnows alive during that 
time without change of water, even in the hottest 
weather. ‘Their catalogue tells all about it. 
The Tribune Trap & Target Co., Erie, Pa., are now 
prepared to supply target shooters with Tribune targets, 
and desire that they note special points of excellence, 
namely, the Tribune targets are good shippers, yet break 
readily when hit by shot, even one pellet being sufficient; 
they can be thrown from any trap; they are strong, but 
snappy. Samples will be sent on application to the 
manufacturers. 
This week we call attention to an advertisement which 
is attractive and should prove equally good to those who 
sell and a great help to those who may wish to buy; 
and Messrs. Lorillard & Walker, 41 Wall stheet, New 
York city, show a very commendable enterprise. Well 
understood, there are many other vessels in their lists, 
and they would be pleased to answer any inquiries in 
regard to them. :
