dull to the large element of the public
who are not Stockholders and who pay at

ter class. There are varieties OF taste,
aud variety should be the order of exhi-
bltl0n. The most profitable thing to the
Falr Il TO have large crowd and the
most attrqctes thing 10 the public is for
that public to know that there will be a
large crowd there. Insure 1000 people
