Care Of Circus Animals.

Great care must be taken during the
winter months to preserve the health
of circus animals. as nearly all of
them are susceptible to some form of
disease. Monkeys take cold easily
and unless Quinine is given them at
once quick consumption is almost Ger.
tain to result. When a monkey has
to take Quinine it makes a great fuss
This is why mother tells her young
hopeful when he makes a grimace
over his medicine: Come, now
down with it. and no more monkey
faces!' Elephants have rheumatism
camels have skin disease, and ali
members OF the cat family must be
given lime juice to overcome the bad
effects of stomach trouble.

Dilation Of the Stomach

The gravity Of enlargement Of the stomach
cannot be overestimated. One of the principal
causes that produce this distressed condition
is inordinate eating and drinking. Weakness
OF the muscles that propel the food to the intes-
tines is also q factor in allowing the food to
accumulate in the stomach, and thus stretch
ing it to enormous size. Constipation and in
activity of the liver is also prominent cause.
In this condition you usually find coated
tongue, thirst, loss of appetite, enaciation,
oppression at the pit of the stomach, belching
u fet.d gas and vomiting of sour liquid, vary
ing in amount. Weakness, paieness and want
Of energy are usually present.
Now, to overcome this distressing and dan
!,e-oa5 enlargement of the stomach and all its
symptoms, take Smiths Pineapple and Butter
nut Pills today. They will give tone to the
weak propelling muscles of the stomach and
'ntcStnes. They produce natural movement
OF the contents of the bowels and avoid the
formation of gas, which If retained produces
symptoms Of scif-poisoning. Food long re-
tanned in the stomach and matter in the bow
els show oil the signs of putrefaction, when
examined after the stomach pump Is used, viz !:
sour OdOr, bacteria, yeast, saccharine and
organic acid, WHICH are deisterious to the entire
system.
Smiths Pineapple and Busternut Pills cure
constipation as If by magic. They regulate the
functions of the liver, cleanse the poisons from
the blood. remove the bilious elements from the
circulation and strengthen the nerves. II your
eyes are c'ouded without an appreciate cause,

nut Pills and get the poisonous elements out Of
