OWES LIFE TO A KICKING GUN.

It was a real old fashioned gun, but its owner was proud of it. Ac- cOrding to him, it had killed more wondrOus beasts than any gun ever made before or after.
 Still, it wasn't modern, and some of his friends couldn't refrain from crit icism.
 Doesn't it kick?" ore asked. Looks to me as if it would recoil pretty badly"
 Rather, It's got tremendous way of kicking. But it makes me more fond of tits one of its special fea- lures. Tell you what happened once, A great grizzly bear was charging me; shot and missed him, And if it hadn't been for the fact that this gun kicked me so far back that had time to reload-well. I shouldn't have been here to tell you the story" London Answers.
