THE ARGOSY—ADVERTISING SECTION. More than a Million and a Half IVER JOHNSON Safety Automatic Revolvers are now in use. A success like this does not merely happen. It is won by exclusive features of excellence or a superior average of quality. ‘The Iver Johnson has both. It is the only revolver that positively cannot be discharged by accident—you cannot fire it except by de- liberately pulling the trigger. + Our booklet ‘‘Shots,” which we mail free on request, explains in detail, the ex- clusive Iver Johnson Safety principle that makes the Iver Johnson proof against accidental discharge, so that you can drop it on the floor, kick it down stairs, bang it against a stone wall, or with absolute safety, you may Hammer the Hammer < But this is only part of the Iver Johnson story, the biggest part is that which the revolver tells best itself—high quality of material and workman- ship in every detail, faithful and sure discharge, straight, hard shooting, beauty and graceful design. Compactness of structure, easy to handle— just the weapon for a gentleman’s pocket, bureau, or desk. It may be purchased for home use without fear—the ladies of the home find in it a real protection against intrusion and have no fear of accidental discharge with it ‘‘about the house.” Iver Johnson Safety These revolvers can be fitted, at extra prices, | [ver Johnson Safety as follows: ue nish, 50 cents; two-inch Hammer Revolver barrels, no additional charge ; four-inch barrel, Hammerless Revolver : : so cents; five-inch barrel, $1.00; six-inch bar- -inch barrel, nickel-plated 1 ear i lib : : nish, 22 rim fire cartridge rel, $1.50. earl stocks, 22-32 caliber, $1.25; 3-inch barrel, nickel-plated 32-38 center fire ’ 38 caliber, $1.50.
