riflle will lea'i to result- with the l, u

who are handicapped for lack of a
place in which to practice. N"in>
char."' out of ten you have a cellar
available. All you n-ed - a l r t and
something to catch t'" bullets. I:

can wield n hammer. s< row dr vei

tliumb or sawing off a finger, it is
a V-rv s'mple inn11< t" fix rp a b
let catcher which will catch .2 2
her bullet- until you get tir 1 i paying
for ammunition.
When a lead bull't hits an n
plat'- s'luarely. til'- . ?t of the blow
melts it and it thereupon splashes off
towards the edge of the plate. If it
were not for this splashing it would
he a cinr-h to construct a back -top.
All you would have to do would b
to buy a piece of Iron plate and hang
it up. If this is all the ba k -top
you have, you will find t!i;? before
love the ceiling will begin to slro v
signs of wear and also the walls an 1
" ior 'n line with th" eclg- s of the
plate, it is a simple matter to

sand about one inch deep in the bottom
of the box underneath the plat
to help to catch the splai-h of the bullets
and if you do a pood job so that
all joints are tipht. it is a pood ide,;
to till up the box above the steel pla*
with sand. This will kill the vibrations
of the plate and make the bu'let
stop very much less noisy. Th >
bullet stop will be effective for pra Cieally
all lead bullets.
You can of course use a .2 2 ealib< r

and also a revolver if the regular fu 1

t: ! _'? t can b< festened will eventually
become >hot away, and In making a
box up it is a good thing therefore to
' arrange things so that you can readily
replace the front board. The cash
way to fasten the target to the board
: to ur;ve a coupie 01 nans inruug
from th backside and tl-'n th'
target on them. This will save fussing
around with thumb-tacks.
, The dimensions of this box van h
varied to suit the range. The mai
thing to be remembered is to keen
tlie proportions the same: that iliave
the plate at the same angle and
line the bottom and sides of the box
with 1-8 inch sheet steel.

there would be less dusted tar-j

is that chilled shot will not flatten

cutting a cleaner hole and causing

give more uniform patterns than dro;,
shot. This is the reason it is used

PAID DEARLY FOR VANITY
How Diplomat's Precious Stones
Were Levied on to Fill Out the
Lean Privy Purse.
The princeling of the comic opera
country had sent to his minister in a
far rich cbuntry the decoration of the
National Order of the Golden Goat. It
was a cheap trinket, plentifully
adorned with imitation Jewels. Hut
the minister, being a vain man and
pros rous, had the false stones replaced
by real oiks, and woro his
order thereafter with proper pride,
Then after some years the princeling
came a-visiting to the far country.
Naturally the minister came to pay
his respects. Almost at once the
eyes of the princeling fell upon the
order with the real stones, and he sat
as one fascinated, prolonging the interview
with idle questions and pay
ing no attention to the answers. He
was resolving a problem?for the
privy purse was leaner than usual
Just then. At last ho saw his way
clear to make a coup.
"It is time." he said to the minister,
"that your valuable services tc
your country should receivo add!
tional recognition from your country's
prince. I hereby (he reached into a
pocket somewhere about his plumi
person) advance you from the second
to the lirst ( lass of the Order of the
Golden Goat." With these words he
pinned upon the minister's swelling
chest the new decoration. Of course
it was necessary to remove the old
decoration first. This, with its col
lection of real stones, ho dropped
carelessly into one of the roya
pockets.

Dr. W. A. Evans, writing for the M

that practically everyone, at some 9
time or other, suffers from constipa- 9
tion This applies regardless of age fl
or condition in life. V
The congestion of stomach waste

ways; bloat, eructation of foul stom
ach gases, eick headache, langour, I
all indicate constipation, and call for I

the present discomfort but also to 1

Harsh caVbatjlics ami violent purgatives

these afford ^aiy temporary relief,
