Al H OPTION OF PURCHASERS!
1t has been four years before the public, and
its success is really remarkable. It's superiority
over all others, and the claims of the manufac-
tuners, are we'll s~ubstantiated by the following
FACTS:
There are more Parker Guns in the hands of
American SpOrtmen than any Foreign breech-
loader.
There are three times as many Parker Gunsin
the hands OF American spOrtmen rs there are of
any other American made hreech-loader.
AT the Utica convention of the New York State
SpOrtmen's Association, the number of sports
men who used the Parker gun was equal to that
OF all others who used central fire bPeech load
ers, of both American and Foreign make com
bined.
While the Parker gun is so often reported as
distinguishing itself at large shoots throughout
the country, It is noticeable that few such renorts
are made of any other gun.
The lowest price Parker guns are within reach
of those of moderate means, while they are in
every way a thoroughly good gun.
The higher grade Parker guns are gotten upin
a style equaled by few, and eXccllCd by none.
The most fastidiOus will find them all that can
be desired.

The export trade of Birmingham,
England, to this country, is gradually
declining, owing mainly to the fact
that our home manufactures are taking
the place of those imported. shis is
only another proof of the growing in
dependence of the United States Of
foreign manufactures.
Makers of fishing-tackle, whose
season is now at hand, complain of the
scarcity of feathers for the manufacture
of artificial flies. One of them says
that all the feathers have flown to the
heads of women, who are little better
than artificial flies themselves with the
hooks very well concealed.
Talk about carpet-baggers! Not less
than seven or eight hundred ex-rebel
officers are now said to be permanent
residents of New York city.
Perhaps the best practical COM
mentary ON the coal crisis is this: A
parish clergyman has announced that
he has discontinued studying, and
until Goals can be had q cheaper rate,
he shall preach his old sermons. He
cannot, he says, afford Goals for his
study fire.
To prevent ink from becoming
mouldy, a German chemist recon-
mends the addition Of a drop or two Of
mustard Oil. Starch paste may be

A meeting was held In Boston, few
evenings since, to form a society for
promoting the study of the Irish lam
guage. The rapidly obsoloscent YER
nacular of the Green Isle Is abundantly
worth preserving, for its own sake,
and for the sake of the literature that
it enshrines.
