Three Famous Shotgun Shells
For field shooting there is nothing so accurate as the Western “Field”
shell. This has been proved by its consistent winning of state, zone
and world's championships.
For long-range shooting nothing equals the Western “Super-X” load
— l2, 16 and 20 gauge. It actually gives you 15 to 20 yards more
range than other loads. It has a close and deadly effective pattern
at remarkable distances. Use “Super-X”—you can get the game
that other shooters have to pass up.
If you want a black powder load, ask for the Western “New Chief,” which is
as reliable as the “Field.” The “Record” is the choice selection of shooters
who prefer a high base shelL Come in and see as when you need shells, or
rifle and revolver cartridges. We are dealers in the world famous

The best
Sympathy
IT is only human for a fu
neral director to feel sym
pathetic in the presence of
bereaved patrons. But it is
real sytnpathy when he recog
nizes alt obligation to see to it
that the highest character of
burial equipment is furnished
at honest prices. Such a policy
has been fesponsible for the
succesqof this concern.
Typical of the burial equip
ment furnished by us is the
Clark Grave Vault, recognized
as a leader in the vault indus
try, because it gives positive
and p4piaaent protection.

Stoekholm. Nov. 251.—The extraordi
nary strictness of government control of
<m iiunercial imtomobile traffic, inrlnding
motor tnn ks, motor buses, arid jitneys,
is revealed by a report from a supervisor
of public romje in the proviuce of Stock
holm.
The supervision 4 applies to the erudi
tion and equipment of the ear, its oper
ation, the personal responsibility of the
driver, and regularity in the eonduct pf
business. Inspection of cars takes place
four times a year «ml without warning.
Sara are even stopped iu the middle of
the road, and inspectors take the wheels
ill order to test steering gear and brakes.
AP the same time the lights also are in
spected.
There is constant chocking of speed,
the size of loads, wheel -pressure, the
conformity to luiblished schedules of-trips,
and the general order and negtness ,of
the ears. Kvery passCnged mnst be pro
vided with n ticket, and even this is sub
ject to inspection in order to avoid coun
terfeits.
Tip- drivers must not only be sober nnd
provided with licenses nnd traffic permits|
but must aha exhibit surety papers or
ether guarantees that any fines or dam
ages assessed on the cur can actually be
collected.

Raw! Raw: Raw!
Tlie rookie iiad lately joined a eniek
cavalry outfit, nnd after several imita
tions of the Prince of Wales hnd lost
some of his exuberance. He was stand
ing on the sunny side of tlie endteen
looking like the spirit of melancholy
when the genial chaplain nppniaetied. <
‘•What’s the matter, my boy?" asked
the chaplain. ‘Homesick?"
‘Oh, a little, I guess,” was a th«‘
answer. "You sec. I’m jnst a rmwirtw
emir." ’"
“Cheer up, you’ll be all right. But
you shouldn't say ’raw recruit-’ The
‘raw’ is superfluous.”
The rookie rubbed his anatomy re
flectively and then replied with end,
emphasis:
"Not when you join the, cavalry
ain't.”
