IA digester of other foods. Food

harm than good. People who use
the Cordial insure the digestion of

The big crowd that got under
the immense circus tent this after
noon was royalty entertained for
more than two hours with one Of
the best circus performances that
ever visited Norfolk. So many of
the acts were new that it did not
seem like the old time circus. Mr..
Wallace has certainly searched
the world" as the bill boards say,
for novelties, and lie has found
them.
1t was remarked that there was
tone to everything. The ward.
robes OF the performers are Deauti-
full. One very noticeable thing
was the youth and beauty Of all
the women connected with the
show. .Back-numbcrs and out Of
date concerns, human. or other.
wise, have no place in this aggre.
CATION. The -menagerie is Que of
the choicest ever exhibited under
canvas; consisting.of about thirty.
five specimens Of the rarrst. at,
fractions that can be procured.
There;N as.an:entiro absence of
the usu;il game of "gratters" that
usually follow. shows to impose
upon the people,.
The. management guarantees
that-the evening performance will
not be curtaiielt, as is done by
most shows at night, hut will be
given in full.
