them with renewed nerve force and
power. 1t is not only an aid to diges-
ton, but it creates a regular, natural
and healthy action of the bowels, iv-
er, kidneys, which in the spring are
always sluggish and inactive.

sidered that DIR. Greene's Nervura

tirely from pure, health-giying vege-
table remedies, and that people give
it more testimonials of cure than any
other remedy ON earth, no one can
doubt that it is the very best spring

THE FIRST WOMEN BAREBACK RIDER.

was in the early forties and few years
later the family came to this country
with June Brothers circus. Soon aft
err arriving in America the girl became
the wife of Francois Tourniaire, the
head of the family.
Tourniaire and his wife never returned
to Europe except for engagements. The
London success was repeated in every
city in the United States. Before she
retired Madame Brown was proud to say
that she had played in every town, city,
village. hamlet and crossroads in the
country.
Mr.. and Mrs. Tourniaire bought farm
al Peaback, N. j.. where. thirty years
ago the husband died. Their daughter.
Josephine, became a rider of international
reputation. Madame Tourniaire few
years later married William c. Brown,
a circus performer. who died two years
ago. They had one daughter, who was
known as Minnie Brown when she too
began to ride.
She was the mother of the circus pro-
fesson'' and was the first woman rider
to stand erect on the back of a gallop-
ing horse and jump over obstacles. For
fifty years she appeared with every well
known organization in the eastern and
western hemispheres. She amassed a
fortune and retired to pretty home in
Frankfort twenty years ago. where she
died last Friday. She leaves numerous
descendants. all Of whom have followed
in her footsteps.

1.-THE mother of the profession died and
was buried in Philadelphia last week.
Her body was followed to the grave by
as strange funeral procession as ever
paid last tribute to mortal remains; for
if it was not circus it was at least
a parade of all the circus performers who
have been wintering in Philadelphia.
Louisa. widow of Wiliac C. Brown, was
76 years old at her death--an age that
reflects credit upon the healthfulness of
her profession. She was the most dar-
ing and graceful of all woman bare
back riders.
For fifty years she appeared in the
ring. first as a small child then as the
finished rider. and last of all. as rider
of high schooled horses. When she re-
tired it was with honor; and she has
anne Brown.
She was born in Germany of fam
lily of acrobats and was only five years
old when she began the professional ca
reer. She was taken as a protege by
the Tourniaire family. famous all over
Europe as acrobats and riders. and I'M
der their tuteiage she first began 20
ride.
With them she journeyed to England.
and in London first began to ride erect.
Nothing like it had been seen before,
and the city went wild with admiration
at her nerve. daring and grace. This
