Nonresident gunners will have to
pay a license fee of $40 to the County
Clerks in this State for the privilege
of shooting game. There are similar
regulations in other States, and there
is no reason why New Jersey should
not adopt the same restrictions. Much
money is spent in stocking the State
with game, and gunners give much
annoyance to residents. The license
fee will also discourage the visits OF
pot-hunters. who kill game for the
markets of New York and Philadel-
phia.

Better Than Pills.

The question has been asked,
"In what way are Chamberlain
Stomach and Liver Tablets su-
perior to pills?" Our answer is:
They are easier and more pleasant to
take, more mild and gentle in effect
and more reliable, as they can always
be depended upon. Then they cleanse
and invigorate the stomach and leave
the bowels in natural condition,
while pills are more harsh in effect
and their use is often followed by
constipation. For sale by s. w.

this slavery are to be seen on every

The japanese style of .ainting is alto

painters are able to produce color cf

the pigments they use, large number

In Japan there is a very famous
painting which no amount of money
could buy and which is the master
piece of famous artist who lived
several centuries ago. Viewing the
painting in the daytime. one is diSap-
pointed. 1t shows nothing more than
a very commonplace landscape, unre-
leved by mountains or hills. As soon
however as night falls one begins to
realize the peculiar merit of the pic
ture, for upon the canvas there ap-
pears a luminous water buffalo (cari

feet.
The artist who painted this picture
discovered a certain phOsphOrescent
paint which he obtained from the bod

with which he painted the buffalo that,
invisible in daylight is luminously
brilliant in the dark. The secret Of
making this paint died with the artist.
