The Forepaugh & Sells Broth

remarkably attractive, more so
than ever before m its fifty years
of travel. The performance is
being given by the world's 400
best artists, the menagerie has
been newly reorganized and the
forenoon parade is a masterwork
of pageantry. The thrillers of
the show are the double sooner
saulting automobile, the Ty Bells
"Human Butter" act and the
sensation wild riding of the l'a-
jara family of Gypsies.
Capt Webb's two troupes of
riding and juggling seals, Tay
lor's wonderful monkey and dog
circus, the Uines Kimball troupe
of acrobats, the Alvo, the Alpine
and the La Layette families of
aerialist aud the fifty funniest
clowns on earth are a few of the
more prominent features. There
are over 100 big acts, all novelties
and the entire stiow is newly
equipped and costumed. Over
$3,000,000 has been spent in
building the new outfit and tho
result is dazzling.
For many years the Forepaugh
and Sells Brothers' circus has
been the pattern of excellence.
This year it is vastly improved
and enlargedr" It now travels on
a train more than one mile in
length. Its many tents cover
ten acres of ground and it gives
employment to 1,124 men, women
and children. In the menagerie
are 728 of the rarest specimens
ot animal lite and in toe canvas
stables are 550 of the finest
horses in the world. The parade
equipment was all built last win
ter in the foreign workshops of
the show near Liverpool. The
work was done by the best art
ists, designers, sculptors and
spectacle builders of France and
Italy.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way
to cure deafness, and that is by
by constitutional remedies. Deaf
ness is caused by an inflamed con
ditionofthe mucoused lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inflamed you have a rumb
liug sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will bo
destroyed forever; nine cases out
often are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed
condition uf the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of Deafness
caused by catarrh) that cannot
be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure.

Pennsylvania Demonstration Orchards
Are you avare of the fact that
Pennsylvania is rapidly moving
toward tho very front of fruit
producing states? To say that
this is truo is making an import
ant statement, which is now be
yond question. It has been dem
onstrated in every county of
Pennsylvania, that there is not
one of tho sixty-seven counties of
this Commonwealth that is not
adaptod to the successful and
profitable growing of fruits, es
pocially apples.
It is true that the same varie
tics of applos will not grow profit
ably in all of the Counties of
Pennsylvania, but the 'grower
who understands his business
can select those varieties suited
to proper local conditions in each
and every county, and can by the
methods which am now being
demonstrated by the State Zoolo
gist, U. A. Surface, and bis as
sistants, in the Department of
Agriculture, grow fruits as fine
in appearance, and much better
in quality, than those grows in
the Far West.
Recently in a conversation with
a member of the Pennsylvania
Senate, who is much interested
in the possibilities of this State,
Doctor Surface said, '-For profit
able apple growing in Tennsylva
nia, one point is the selection of
site or location, another is the
selection of proper varieties; and
eight points are in the proper
care of the trees, to make up the
ten essential points for success.
"In the care of the trees we
must consider planting, pruning
spraying, fertilizing, cultivating,
thinning, picking, and packing.
Pests can be and must be abso
lutely controlled. The fruits
must be not only first-class, but
'fancy,' and must be gathered
and packed in not only an honest,
but in a very attractive and strict
ly business-like manner.
"Pest control is the most im
portant of all these features, but
for complete success each is es
sential, and it must be thoroughly
modern and correct. Knowledge
is power only when practically
applied. Let our beginning as
well as our advanced fruit grow
ers keep their eyes on tho 1200
Model Orchards established by
the division of Zoology of the De
partment of Agriculture in this
State, and.see what they can learn
that will benefit them.
"The dormant spraying for
scale insects has just been com
pleted, and the spring spraying
for the Codling moth, theCurulio,
canker, worm, and plant diseases
is now being arranged."
Announcements will be made
later through the public press.
Self Control.
There is really no law like the
law of Belf control. It is beyond
all dispute that the very first
leon to be taught a boy is
self mastery, says the Lancaster
News. There is no sight calcula
ted to awaken such contempt as a
kicking two-year old whose wild
auger, as be pounds tne tloor
wnn ms neeis, is allowed to go
unspanked by the coddling par
ent. Tell that little, sweet bar
barian that this world is so put
together that he had better die
young than attempt the world
with sucn a temper. If those
who love him most fail to get in
this idea, it will be got in by a
later surgical operation perform
ed by society lor its own pro
tection. Frequently this later
surgery proves fatal.
.soberly stated, an ungovern
able temper is without excuse, is
a curse to its owner and all his
kin, and is simply intolerable to
everybody else. There never was
a child, probably, who did not
start to try the thing a few times.
It Bis a universal inheritance,
There never was a child unless
unnatural whose' bad temper
could not be wholly cured by
wise, patient, affectionate, con
stant and firm parental teaching.
The adult mind should place its
own strong will at the disposal
of the small chap, till he gets
hold of his strong will.
QThat is the whole story. Re
volvers and knives are not the
fault. It is the rotten self-con
trol that is at fault. And not only
as regard homicides, but a word
of other passionate and quick of
fenses.
It is unbearable when one has
schooled himself to be a master,
often with the most exhausting
and constant struggle, to have
some wild man let flyj and then
creep back to "Bog your pardon;
1 have a quick temper. ' "Have
you? So have I. Saw yours off.
I am sawing mine off, painfully,
every day. No, I will not pardon
you, in what I would not pardon
myself."
DIXON DEFENDS
DAIRY FARMERS
Declares Milk Often Becomes Pol
luted After Leaving Their
Hands on Way to Con
sumer. SANITARY LAWS ARE BROKEN
"Don't let's put too much blame on
the farmers," says State Health Com
missioner Dixon., lu (llscuHHlng the
question of a pure milk supply,
problem that Is troubling so many
municipalities throughout Pennsylva
nia.
"As an old farmer myself who has
led the reapers around tho wheat
field. swInsiiiK a cradle and then In
the evening milking my share of the
cows, I am nuturally favorable to the
dairy farmer, but it is tho closo study
of actual conditions that convinces mo
that the first disease germs often, per
haps most frequently, get into the niillc
after it has passed out of the farmer's
control.
"Tho farmer Rpprcolates more today
than over the necessity of keeping
milk clean. He knows that if
reaches the market swcot and pure
the domand will bo Increased. He is
up against a dlfllcult tank to make
money out of his milk dairy when ho
hag to constantly buy new cattle to
take tho place of those that have
gone dry, become sick or died.
Dairyman' Problems.
"He must produce or purchase food
for them, keep up tho stable, pay his
help, constantly replenish his supply
of pans, buckets, etc., and haul this
milk over all kinds of roads, through
all sorts of weather and then receive
for all this 4 or 4V4 cents a quart from
the dealer.
"The milk often begins to receive
pollution on the railroad, when an at
tendant takes off tho lid of a milk can,
helps himself to a drink and then ro
places tho lid, drippings of milk which
have reached his lips going buck Into
the can.
"Does this sound like an exaggera
tion? Let me cite you a case. I re
member a baggagemastor who once
called upon me for medical advice.
found him suffering with ' pulmonary
tuberculosis. When I advised him to
drink plenty of milk be informed me
that he was drinking a great deal of
It. He said he hauled milk in his bag
gage car and that he was In tho habit
of drinking out of the lids of the cans.
"At the stations and along the
streets the milk dealers often purchase
from each other. The purchaser sticks
his finger Into the milk and then Into
his mouth to determine tho sweetness
and then into the second can until he
tosts as many cans of milk as be pro
poses purchasing.
Unsanitary Methods.
"Only a few days ago a gentleman
came Into my office to tell me ho had
Just witnessed his own milk man hand
a street cleaner a drink of milk con
taincd In the lid of his can and then
replace the lid.
I have witnessed ever and over
again milk men collect bottles from
their customers, poke the Index finger
In the mouth of ono aud the thumb
In the other to carry th bottles to his
wagon. Trusting that they had boon
properly cleansed by ttie housewife,
the bottles were at once refilled, caps
taken out of a pocket which also con
talned a handkerchief and then these
bottlos of ra.llk were delivered to the
next customers. It Is not worth while
to enumerate other Instances to make
my point clear, that Is, we must not
confine ourselves to the dairy farm
In looking for conditions that render
milk Impure. Out municipalities
throughout the state will have to keep
their eyes open to the way in which
the dealers and others are handling
the milk after It has left the farmer's
care."
PERSONAL TAXES.
Joining Mayor Gaynor, of New
York City, in his opposition to
the personal property tax, P. W.
Upham, a momber of Chicago's
Board of Review, -declares the
law as enforced in his city is a
farce. "My opinion Is that only tangi
ble property should be taxed," says
Mr. Upham. "It is absolutely out of
the question to make every man In
Chicago declare the value of his per
sonal wares. And at the same time
this works a great hardship on hon
est men. When we took hold of the
board we found that only $21,000,000
worth of personal property was list
ed. Now we have $500,000,000 worth,
and I think we are cheating the peo
ple at that. If we were able, or If It
were a human possibility, to collect
all of the personal taxes, Chicago
would be so rich that it wouldn't
know what to do with the money."
Men wno stana prosperity never
get the credit they deserve; It looks
so easy and Is In fact bo hard.
Some girls can't even wear an air
of innocence without making It coq
spicuous.
