A Veritable NOah'S Ark.

We publish this week a very read
able letter written from London, Eng,
by Mr.. Arthur Loughlin-an account
of his trip across the Atlantic and some
impressions of England and the Eng
lish-as he sees them. Mr.. Loughlin
is Henderson boy, the youngest
brother of Mr.. D. C. Loughlin. He
went with the Barnum & Bailey Show
of which he is one of the crack per-
formers, and in this connection some
figures of the ''goods and chattles"
comprising the outfit of this great circus,
as published in New York paper at
the time, will not be without interest.
The Atlantic transportation liner Mas
sachusetts was specially chartered for
the purpose of taking the show over
and when it was ready to sail it was a
veritable Noah's Ark. 1t contained
420 horses, 50 ponies, 20 elephants, Is
camels, 6 zebras, 81 cages of miscella-
neous wild animals, and an enormous
amount of circus equipment.
During the voyage the animals con-
sumed 20 tons of hay, 20 tons of straw,
10 tons Of bran, $500 bushels Of oats,
4,50O lbs of beef, l,50O lbs Of fish,
400 lbs of bread, tons of carrots
and 40 barrels Of other vegetables.
Two hundred and twenty-five work
men and 100 performers accompanied
the show, which after appearing a
Olympia, will tour through England
and the Continent, remaining abroad
two years.

A Well Pleased Audience.

Much was expected of the Polk
Miller combination Monday night, nor
was the audience disappointed. Mr..
Miller had delighted Henderson audi
ences on previous occasions-and he is
always good. This time he was ably
assisted by Mr.. Oscar 2. Sisson, re-
fined and pleasing comedian and char
acter sketch artist, and Miss Ester
Wallace, (Mr. Sisson's niece and stage
companion), charming and vivacious
little actresses who captivates her aud
ience by her clever perfo rmces. She
is pretty and graceful, with cultivated
voice and sprightliness of manner that
easily made her favorite.
The receipts were the largest in four
years and a better pleased audience
never assembled in the Hall. We will
not attempt to follow the artists
all through the program. Suffice it
to say it was veritable feast of fun and
merriment throughout, and when the
two and a half hours had been concluded
the audience were in humor for more.

The Hicks 1903 Almanac and PAPER

The 1898 Almanac OF Prof. Irl R.
Hicks is now ready, and judging from it's
past history, it will not be many week. 8
in finding it's way into homes and Offices
all over America. 1t is much larger and
finer than any previous issue. 1t con-
tains 116 pages, is splendidly printed
and illustrated on fine book paper,
having the finest portrait ever given of
Prof. Hicks. 1t can no longer be denied
that the publications of Prof Hicks have
become a necessity to the family and
commercial life of the country. His
journal, "Word and Works." aside from
it's storm, weather and astronomical fea-
lures, has taken rank with the best liter
ary, scientific and family magazines of
the age. Do not believe hearsay and re-
ports. See the Hicks Almanac and paper
for yourself. You will then know why
they are SO popular. They are educa-
tors OF the millions, and unrivalled safe
guards to property and human life. 1t
is matter of simple record that Prof.
Hicks has foretold for many years all
great storms, floods, drouths and lorna.
does, even the recent terrible drouth over
all the country. The Almanac alone is
25 cents a copy. The paper is 81 90 a

One of the most unique Christmas
and New Year cards we have seen was
sent to the editor by the efficient and
popular Passenger Agent of the Sea-
board Air Line, Mr.. I. J. Anderson.
1t is a race to the Southland between a
molly Hare" and dog. They start
with a "full head" of steam, and be-
fore they reach their destination, the
dog jumps the track, but old molly"
plumbs the line and completes the
journey without break. The con-
tents Of the inner folds Of the card
read as follows:
The chilly North the Hare would shun,
So towards the South she starts to run.
The Cur espies the fleeing MolI,
And makes pursuit, with tongue loll.
Alas. vain Pup, you did not know
The direct route the Hare would go.
Down the S. A. l.. tracks old Moll flew,
The popular line South full we'll she knew
The Canine another route did take,
And MOllie left him in the wake.

prove profitable to those who heard
them. The exercises throughout were of
a character and spirit such as should
inspire the church everywhere. Great
good cannot fail to be the outcome of

What Everybody Knows.

Or ought to know. is that health and even
life itself depends upon the condition of
the blood. Feeding. as it does, all the
organs OF the body, it must be rich and
pure In order to give proper nourishment.
Hoods Sarsaparilla makes the blood pure,
rich and nouriShing, and in this way
strengthens the nerves, creates an appe-
tite, tones the stomach and builds up the
health. Hoods SarSaparilla wards off
colds. pneumonia and fevers, which are
prevalent at this time.
