novelty in trained animal displays.

each other. Then he got several fellows
to help him and they went among the
crowd and distributed them as best they

couldn't be helped.
—Those women who are in the
habit of ' making up" to deceive the
unsophisticated eye with fictitious youth
and freshness are wrought up over the
report that there is poison in rouge.
Carmine is harmless, but some of those
who deal in cosmetics find that it is too
expensive, and cheap substitutes are
employed which have an unfortunate
effect upon the health. It is a distress
ing state of affairs for middle aged
women who look weirdly young, for
they put much of their trust in the pink
saucer. Only the debutantes who, it is
said, are the only women who dare look
old nowadavs, will find life still worth
liying.
Letter to Peason 11 Niwe
Butler, Pa.
Dear Sir: There's twice as much
horse in one horse—it mav be a mare
as there is in two or three others to
gether.
So with paints too. It' a painter can
do your job with 10 gallons Devoe for
fSO; it'll take 12, 15 or 20 of other paints;
and the cost of a job is about $5 a
gallon, whatever the paint may be.
There are paints adulterated three
quarters—only one quart of paint in a
gallon—lie's gov to paint four gallons of
rubbish to get one gallon of paint. The
worst horse you've got is as good as
that paint, and he'll go as far.
The less-gallons paint is the paint, as
the most-horse horse is the horse.
Yours truly

BARNUM & BAILEY CIRCUS
The reported engagement of the
Barnum & Bailey circus has been con
firmed, and the big show. it ia announc
ed, will exhibit' here, Monday, Sept.
10th. Especial interest attaches to the
Barnum & Bailey show-day this year,
not only because of the popnlar belief
that it is the largest combined circus,
menagerie and hippodrome in the world,
but also because the management an
nounces a number of features of such
an extraordinary character as to dis
count anything hitherto known in the
line of arenic sensationalism.
Probably the most remarkr.ble of the
new acts, and the one that has created
the greatest comment and wonder, is
known as the "Dip of Death." In this
this startling act a heavy road car Hies
forty feet through space, with machine
and driver actually upside-down Then,
as though this thriller was not sufficient
to satisfy the public demand for sen
sationalism. two daring bicyclists tempt
injury and posffible death by turning
somersaults in mid-air on their wheels
This sensational act is descriptively en
titled the "Two Twirls of Terror," and
is said to create a furore wherever it is
seen. i
The performance opens with a new
spectacle entitled "Peace/' It is found
ed upon the Russo-Japanese war. and
describes, in an allegorical way, tne
Presidents successful efforts to bring
about peace between the waring armies
in the East. The circus performance
follows. There are three rings, two
stages, a quarter-mile hippodrome track
and a series of immense l aerial spaces,
and all are utilized by the 300 European
and American artists in the circus Com
pany. The big sensational features are
interspersed throughout the arenic pro
gram The comedy element is provid
ed by what is said to be the merriest lot
of clowns ever seen with a circus. The
hippodrome races are rendered especial
ly interesting and exciting by the intro
daction of thoroughbred racers, and
jockeys and charioteers of established
reputation.
The zoological display, which forms
a vestibule for the main exhibition, is
declared to be especially notable this
year from the fact that it serves to dis
play a remarkably herd of four giraffes,
the only bi-horned rhinoceros in the
(United States, and many other rare
I animals, together, with three herds of
trained elephants, aud hundreds ot
other interesting wild beasts.

Dear Sir. Here's the difference be
tween two pure paints; one strong; the
other weak.
C P Hanger, Staunton, Va, painted
two new houses, the houses exactly
alike: one another pure paint, the other
Devoe. Devoe cost a quarter less for
