 The True Position.
 While it Is true that the positions taken by riiiemen are as varied as the color of tkeir cravats, there is but one correct off, hand position that can be taken The mans left side should be turned squarely to the mark, the left foot well forward, the weight on the left leg. The left arm should be extended nearly to its full reach. The gun should He across the body. The right elbow should be level with the lower edge of the ear, the right cheek against the stock, cuddling it. The rifle man should go against his gun, not away from it, and therefore should lean forward slightly If the left arm is far extended 1t does much to prevent the wabble.
 When shooting in the field at such game as deer bear, turkeys, rabbits, or other more less uncertain targets the rifieman requires an open rear sight, one whose cleft is coarse, the object being to get view of the front sight quickly possible.
 Of late there have been countless inven- tions in the sight line, but all the compll- cated sighting mechanism will not help a man to shoot straight in the woods. Tele- scopfc lenses and wind gauges are we'll enough the range, but nothing has yet been invented which is any improvement upon the old-fashioned open sight which cannot be raised or lowered. The man who cannot learn to be his own wind guage is mot entitled to be admitted to the blood- brotherhood of hunters.
 He will learn to down stationary deer within twenty feet of his standing place, at two hundred, two out of three times. He will learn to knock rabbits over with almost perfect at fifty yards, or will at the top of the highest tree He may not learn to drop the learn to drop the ruffied grouse on the wing,or the prairie chicken in the wild, because those are God-given gifts, but he will certainly learn that the sports of the woods delightful, and will come to look down upon range shooting as a kind of play that grown-up children in- dulge in when there is a keg of beer at stake
