ABSOLUTE SMOKELESSNESS UNIFORMITY—UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF EITHER DAMP OR HEAT QUICK IGNITION j LOW RECOIL EXCELLENT PENETRATION THE BEST FOE ALL GAME SHOOTING. CAPTAIN WHITNEY, Auckland, New Zealand:—ln a recent issue of the Melbourne Argus appeared the following With regard to the proposal to re-arm the infantry and mounted men of the Victorian military forces with the '303-bore Martini-Enfield rifle, Captain J. Whitney, senior, of the Colonial Ammunition Company, who has just returned from an eighteen months' visit to England, states that the proposal is justified by the fact that the '303 single-fire rifle has been universally adopted at Home, and it is recognised as specially suitable for the English cavalry. The objections raised on the ground of the difficulty of cleaning Captain Whitney regards as baseless, and cites an instance of a '303 rifle from which he has fired 8000 ROUNDS OP BALLISTITE CARTRIDGES—A SIMILAR POWDER TO CORDITE—and which has never had a drop of water or acid applied to i« in the cleaning, and yet is as free from corrosion now aa the day it was purchased. Mr B. A. COOK, Dargaville, New Zealand :—“ I have much pleasure in giving yon a result of my trial this season of NOBEL’S BALLISTITE CARTRIDGES My bag for the soaSoh is 82 brace pheasants, a much larger quantity than I ever got before with other cartridges. I find them wonderfully quick on the bird—in fact; the pull of the hammer and fall of the bird is instantaneous. Absolutely n» smoke or recoil; residue in gob scarcely perceptible, even after a day’s shooting, I have been able this season to make sure of birds (long shots; that before I would never have shot at. Previous to this season I have used both smokeless and black powder, and I certainly prefer BALLISTITE CARTRIDGES to any other.”—August 13, 1897. MRJ. HALL, Brookfield Inn, Devonport, writes: —”1 have had 700 Ballistite Cartridges, and have used them with the greatest success—in fact, I believe them 10 yards better than any I have ever used. I have killed about 45 rooks with them in a run.” — 28th Jan., 1897. GENERAL SIR GEO. S. WHITE, V. 0., G.0.1.E., K. 0.8., Commander-in-Chief in India, writes “ I have used Nobel’s Special Cartridge loaded with Sporting Ballistite, and have been struck by the very long distances at which it kills. I prefer it to any propellent force I have yet used,”—sth Jan., 1897. CARTRIDGES MAY BE OBTAINED FROM ALL QUNMAKERS AND AMMUNITION DEALERS. 4

DISTINGUISHED TESTIMONY, His Honour, William P. Courtney, Mayor of Lowell, writes under date October 31st, 1896, of the benefit he derived from Ayer’s Sarsaparilldt

“I have great faith in the healing virtues of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, because it has helped me. The medicine cured me of indigestion, which had troubled me seriously for several years/ 'Since I began talcing Ayer’s Sarsaparilla my appetite has improved, I have slept better, and in fact my health in general has been greatly benefited.” We take pleasure in reproducing above the portrait and testimony of Mayor Courtney, whose services in the cause of good municipal government have been recognized in his recent election to the mayoralty of his native city for the third year in succession. His experience is the same as that of thousands of other people, of all sorts and conditions, who have found freedom from sickness, and restored health and strength in the use of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.” There are many worthless imitations seeking to profit by the world-wide reputation of See that the name—Ayer’s Sarsaparilla—is on the wrapper, and blown in the glass of each bottle.
