THE COMING STREET FAIR. Some of the Teatures of This Great Enterprise. The street fair to be given at Wyo mlng avenue nnd Ash stieet, under the auspices of the Elks, will be a novelty In the amusement line, combining as It does a mony-slded entertainment. There will be an Industilal exposi tion, but It would naturally not be complete without an amusement sec tion. In addition to the display of the latest and greatest triumph of th manufacturing and commercial wot Id, interesting as they may be. the public wants to bo amused, and in view of this long-felt want, It icmalned for thu fertile brain of Frank C. Bostock, unl vei sally known as the "animal king," to evolve the Idea of a monster Mid way cat nival that could be transported from ono city to another. The result of this energetic showman's arduous labors, und. Incidentally, the outlay ot nearly $1,000,000. Is known as the) "Frank C. Bostock Mighty Midway Carnival," which will furnish tho amusement feature of the coming street fair. Those who were nt tho World's Fair In Chicago, nnd remember the re nowned Midway Plalsance, can form nn Idea of Director General Bostock's big collection of shows. Each distinct show Is presented just as it was In Chicago, nnd In fact some of the per formers, particularly tho Oriental dancers and other men nnd women from the Far East, have been with I Mr. Bostock ever since the closo of the great fair. But let us tnlte a stroll down tho Midway. Hero we see tho greatest collection of trained nnd wild animals over In cap tivity. Daring performances are given by fearless trainers, who risk their lives several times a dav In the big arena with ferocious lions, tigers, leopards, Jaguars, pumas, cougars, hy enas, and, In fact, every other denizen of the Jungle, thus exhibiting the power of the human being over brute creation. Mmc. Marie Louise Morcll, the fearlesB little French woman, known as tho Lady of Jaguars, keeps tho spectators spellbound by her grace ful work among a group of crafty and cunning leopards nnd Jaguars. In ad dition to those Just mentioned above there are twenty other performers, who present Interesting acts with a varied assortment of wild nnlmals. In the centre of tho Midway will be seen tho world-famed Venetian gon dolas, the most superb mechanical de vice of the present century, magnifi cently carved and gilded with an elab orate display of mirrors nnd painting. Each one Is upholstered In heavy plush, making one of the most gorgeous amusement creations ever seen. Tho experience of a ride In ono of these gondolns is most delightful, reminding one of a trip on the poetic canals of beautiful Venice. During tho ride, operatic selections from the works of Verdi, Muscaenl and Leoconvallo and other Italian masteis are discoursed by an orchestrion that cost $10,000. H HER POINT OF VIEW S rUHlOSITY," says one charitable I. person, "Is only exaggerated sympathy," which Is a generous way of looking nt a trait, often most troublesome in its effects. When we are in the presence of an acquaintance who Is bent on turning our very souts Inside out, wo are not prone to deal so gently with the subject of our annoy ance, and It Is seldom that we give our Inquisitor credit for any virtues In the way of sympathetic Interest, We often disclaim the possession of curi osity In any form, nnd perhaps we nre sincere enough in so doing. We insist that we are totally uninterested In the way our friend keeps her linen closet, or the method she observes in teach ing her children to say their evenlns prayers. Sometimes, after a visit with her, we confide to our family that wo nre not at all curious as to the exact quantity of food she consumes for breakfast, or the way she manages to get her son Johnny to take his medi cine, und that we should be willing to accept on faith the piobablllty that she is extremely devoted to her hus band, without so many dctnlls from her on the subject. And yet and yet If from a third person we should hear that tho same friend neglected to set before her hus band a palatable breakfast, or that sh" danced all night and left little Johnny to the mercies of an Incompetent nurse when he had the measles, or that she threw plates at her lord and muster In the meantime, when she wasn't ex pressing her devotion otherwise, we should probably develop a faint de gree of Interest, and even curiosity, re garding the domestic affairs of our friend. It all depends on the point of view. We are not curious. Oh, no. Yet we have been known to call the telephone Blrl In the middle of the night In order to find out that a fire Is consuming a wood-shed In. the Notch. We arc not curious, but if we suspect that the head ot the house Is concealing some thing from our cars, some secret he has heard, we are npt to make a de cided stir in tho family until the mat ter Is divulged. We are not curious about other people's affairs, but we Idly "wonder" why our neighbor across the street has some other doctor than the one she always employed before, and we "gUPhs" that Miss So and So must be rlendly again with Mrs, X, for they went to the concert together. Oh, we may not be curious enough to pry Into other people's affairs to the extent of making nuisances of our selves, and wo may refrain from stay ing up nights to see how late Mrs. A's husband comes home, and we may not set up an amateur detective system In order to find out just how much Mrs. B paid for the new lace curtains In her library, but If It Is agitated In the right direction wo probably all possess as much "exaggerated sympa thy" as is good for either our ft lends or ourselves. Curiosity Is often excited regarding people for whom we have the utmost Indifference of feeling, or who arc en tirely unknown to us. The other day two men were holding a very interest ed conversation in tho street car. Their words become louder and louder, and one was heard to exclaim with appar ent satisfaction. 'Our'n was born the same day as hls'n." Then he contin ued. "Fell and broke his leg, blamed if he didn't, in three months." The other man wns grinning In sympathy nnd you wouldn't have supposed that the car full of people were listening to the remarks, but when he proceed ed with an uproarious laugh of min gled pride and affection, "Yen slr'ee, fell out of bed the day he was three months old and broke' his leg. Blamed If he didn't, the durned little scamp, but he's getting along all right there was a broadly sympathetic smile nn the fares of all the passengers, nnd it was evident that they had been listening Intently and up to that mo ment had believed the speaker to be 'd Perfect Food" '"Preserves Health" ' Prolongs Life " ! j BAKER'S !

The constant strain of work and se vere climatic changes in the spring weaken and inflame the nerves. PAiWS CELERY Strengthens the Nerves H. D. SCHUYLER. 73 State Street, Albany, N. Y., writes: "Every spring I have a drowsy, logy feeling, loss of appetite and poor sleep, and am very nervous. Last March I began taking Paine's Celery Compound, and I never felt so well in my life, as since using it. I gained ten pounds in flesh and it strengthened my nerves. I can recommend Paine's Celery Compound to everybody in the spring months, espec ially those whose nerves and brain are under constant strain." PAINE'S Celery Compound is the spring medicine of American people. referring to a calamity occurring to a colt or a calf Instead of his son and heir. Perhaps, after nil, curiosity is exaggerated sympathy, Then there was the pretty gltl on the train with her mother, Uoth tveio tastefully dressed, and rellned in man ner. Hut they grew earnest In conver sation, and it could be icadlly observed that everybody within hearing dl tnnce was making an effort to catch tho dtlft of their renvnks. Now, what earthly interest could It have been to be convinced that two unknown per sons were bickering over their domes tic affairs? Tho mother was saying, "Forty dollars we've spent In this day's shopping. Forty dollars! Just think of It! But you would have thoso things." "Uut, mother!" exclaimed tho girl, with some show of spirit, "that Isn't n whole lot of money, und we did got so much for It." "It is a whole lot," returned the mother In angry tones. "You shouldn't have wunted so much, I don't know what your father will say, I'm sure. It amounts to just this: (In two or three yenrs, If you keep on at the rntu you're going, we'll both of us have to go to work. Your father can't stand It, nnd he won't." "Now, mother." the girl remon strated, "I don't liave as much as Jen nie A , and you know It, and wo can afford It It her folks can. I'vo got to have things to wear, and what good does It do to make such a time about it?" nnd then sho tried to turn the subject, but tho mother continued to revert to It, and the other pa ssengers continued to listen anxiously for further revlatlons of the pitiful llttlo tragedy In the lives of utter strangers. Yet, not ono of the listeners would have admitted to tho possess. on ot un due curiosity. Probably it is this "exageerated sympathy'" whl'h leads peoplu to bsten ut telephones when other peoplo nre talking; to peep through keyholes nnd read letters addressed to somebody else, or to question little children about the affairs of their parents.
