Handling- oQun.
An exchange lays down the following-
rules for amateur hunters.   Most of them
should bo pasted in the hat of professionals as well:'
1. Never under any circumstunces
point your gun towards a human  being.
2. Never carry so that if it wero ncci-
dently discharged, it would even endanger the life of a dog.
3. Always think which way your gun
is pointed, and, if a companion is in the
field with you, no matter how near oi
how tempting'the game appears, do not
shoot until yea know where be-is: astray
shot may be sufficient to destroy an oye,
4 Never carry a loaded gun i.i a wagon.
5. Never carry a loaded gun over a
fence.   Put it through and then get over.
6. Always carry a gun at half cock; if
a breech loader, never let tho hammer
rest on the plungers.
7. Never get in front of a gun; if you
are falling drop iv so that the muzzle will
bo from you.
8. If tho cartridge sticks, lie stout
blade of a knife will probably extract it]
if not, take out the other cartridges, out
a straight stick aud poke it out from the
muzzle; even thou do not get in front of
tho gun.
9. After firing one barrel take the cartridge out of the other and examine the
wad to see that it is not loosened, as it
sometimes is after a heavy recoil, for
should it get ipto tho barrel it is liable
to burst* the* gun.   .
10. Never take hold of tho muzzle of
a gun to draw it towards you,
11. Never set your gun up so that if if
should fall, the muzzle would be toward
you.
12. Never keep a loaded gun in the
house.
Follow these rules, bo solf-poscssed
and the fields will afford you. sport without danger.
