Don’t kill game wantonly. Stop when you have all you need. Don’t get rattled. Keep cool, nc matter how big the game you are after. Don’t shoot toward houses or fields with long range guns when you are anywhere near them. Don’t leave squirrel tails hanging out of your game hags or pocket for some other sportsman to take a shot at. Don’t forget that a gun is a danger ous instrument, yet harmless as a piece of wood if yon use judgment and cantion in its handling. Don’t pull your gun after you when you climb or crawl through a barbed wife fence Push it through first with the muzzle away from yon. If you fall in going down steep hills or over rough ground don’t drop Every cup of Bonano is a step upward in the road to health and happiness. Get a can from your grocer today and serve it for breakfast tomorrow. Or fill in the attached coupon and we’ll send you a free sample and a booklet telling you all about Bonano. For Sale by your gnu. Bang on to it and keep the muzzle pointed the other way. Don’t sheot even approximately in the direction of any one in the woods, as a glancing bullet may strike quite a bit to one side of the object at which yon aim. Don’t foret that the smaller a rifle or shotgun the more steady you mast hold it when yon shoot. It takes a mighty good shot to do long range shooting with a small target rifle. I Don't pull the trigger until you are sure yon kßow what you are shoot ing at. Quite a number of men are in their graves now because in a quick glance the nervous hunter took them to be a deer or a wild turkey among the bashes. If yon are in the woods a long time and do a let of shooting, don’t fait to give yon gun one cleaning, especially if a target rifle or pump* gun. It will shout truer. Besides a fonl gun is more liable to exploda than a clean one. —Ex. i Buncoed on Apples. Two strangers canvassed the city selling apples at $1 per bushel.
