This ' fact, ' combined with the excellence of the powder and materials used, insures tho suro penetration and immediate ignition for >which \ theso cartridges are now so famous. The Colonial Ammunition Company is a business concern, but it has- found that, tho surest ultimate profit arises from tho system of always using tho best' available materials, and always insisting on the most faithful workmanship.
