Norhing to It

early morning in the Flowever, the coffee-drinker raised his gun and fired. The Two men went duck hunting one fall.

One took along a thermos jug of coffee, the other a bottle of "Old Lightning."

The ducks failed to show up for a couple of hours, the weather was cold, so both prospective hunters kept hitting their drink supply.

Finally, about the time the licker-drinker had gotten himself completely orrie-eyed, a single duck appeared overhead. It flew very high, almost out of shotgun range.

When it was so far away it looked like a lone speck in the sky, the licker-drinker whipped up his gun and fired. Down came the duck ! The other man looked at this exhibition in great wonderment.

"That was wonderful shooting," he told his friend.

"Nothing to it," said the other. "When you shoot into a big flock of ducks like that you can't hardly miss."
