THE WONDERFUL SHOW.
A Vivid Reality-Strong and StrikIl

In these days of extensive and generous
advertising, when columns of space are
taken in the newspapers by various parties
with the object of impressing the people
with the merits of different commodities,
1t is hard for the general public to dis
oriminate between that which is good and
that which ia otherwise, as the latter just
as often as not, will use the papers fully
as much as the parties advertising the good
and genuine articles. So 1t is with shows.
Some mediocre and counterfeit concerns
will advertise almost as extensively as
meritorious ones. The smaller the show
the less expense 1t incurs for attractions
and features, and with small salar-

1t is another fact that anyone can easily inform
himself of the size character OF any circus If

free street parade of all circus companies is the
index telling what the show contains. Look at
