Brandt in 1888. The plant from which
asafetida is produced is a native Of
Persia. Afghanistan and northern
India. In all these countries the in

pepper is employed by the natives Of
Mexico and South American states.

1t Is peculiar fact that very few
men, even accomplished shots. know
how a revolver ought to be handled.
Nearly all are taught to handle a re-
volver as If 1t were rif1e-that is, by
bringing the object aimed at and the
fore and hind sight into line. This Is
all well enough for shooting gallery
practice, but should never be followed
In the field. When training troops to
use the revolver they are taught. in
aiming, never to look at the weapon
at all, but to keep their eyes on the
object to be struck. In quick firing.
