Ringing Brothers, Worlds Greatest
Shows.

So have run the advertisements In
all the newspapers for weeks past, SO
have read with many additional facts,
the announcements on every vacant
wall or fence in the city or its vicinity.
The notification OF all these promised
wonders was to be on Friday and ac-
cordingly about eight thousand PEG
pie began to assemble on the square at
an early hour Of that day. They Hocked
to the depot where the circus was
being unloaded, they filled every win
dow or piazza from which the street
parade could be witnessed, thew
pushed and jostled each other without
ceasing, but in the main, with all good
humor. The circus did not arrive on
time however and the parade expected
at about twelve did not begin before
three and the doors of the tents were
not open before four. In
large numbers Of people were COM
PEELED to leave for their homes without
seeing the performance and the audi
ence for that eason probably did not
number over 5000. The program
fulfilled the expectations of almost
everyone. The show was quite up
to the average Of the usual first class
circus and some of its features were ex-
~ceptionally fine. Among these may be
noted the trained elephants and the
nine Nelson's who comported them
selves as 80 many balls in the hands of

Nc subject is of greater impor-
lance 10 the happiness and useful
ness Of every human being than
the matter of physical health. or
course when a person is sick he de-
sires to get well, and remedies in
tended to restore his health are
administered, but people who are
fairly In good health seldom think
of medicine. The fact is, every one
needs TO have n good medicine
always at hand, for by its timely
use prolonged sickness and suffer
ing may often be averted.
The most healthy person in the
world is liable to be seized with
acute indigestion when certain
kinds of food are taken under I'M
favorable circumstances, and every
n is in constant danger of head
aches, colds, aud various ailments
which result from exposure, over
work or some indiscretion about
diet, sleep or exercise. 1t is these
little ills that lead to chronic
disease. An undigested dinner
may bring on a stomach or liver
trouble which will cause many
years of suffering. succession OF
sleepless nights will inevitably tell
upon the nervous system, and will
perhaps be the precursor of ner-
vous prostratiop. A sudden cold,
a chill, or exposure may be fell
lowed by most serious conse-
quences.
Hence the Importance Of attend
ing promptly to little ills and over
coming at once the slightest indis-
position. And IL is just as essential
that a reliable medicine be en-
ployed maintaining health as in
curing disease. In the first place
your blood must be pure, and the
medicine that is TO keep you in
health must be a good blood prri-
fer. The most prominent blood
purifier in the public eye today Is
Hoods Sarsaparilla. THIS medi-
cine has gained the front rank in
the medicine world by its power
to make rich, pure and healthy
blood, and this Is what will keep
the body in a vigorous condition.
Hoods Sarsaparilla prevents dis
ease from getting a foothold be-
cause 1t quickly overcomes the
minor ailments which disturb the
functions Of the body.
BY keeping the blood pure with
Hoods Sarsaparilla and regulating
the liver and bowels by the use Of
Hoods Pills, tho danger to be
feared from changes in temporal
ture and variations in diet will be
avoided. Hoods Sarsaparilla, it
should be remembered, is the one
true blood purifier. 1t is by lis
power to make pure blood that it
cures, and by keeping tic blood
pure it fortiies the system against
all danger Of it's attack.
