The Floto Circus Played to q Big
Patronage Here Last Week.
And q Good Program of
Entertainment was
.@ Rendered.


The visit of the Floto circus to Canon
City last Thursday was a red letter
event in the calendar of the small boy,
and was also an important occurrence
with many people of maturer growth,
II the crowds which gathered at the
show grounds on the penitentiary plaza
may be taken as an indication OF their
enjoyment of that sort of entertain
ment.
From the way the youth, and old age
too for that matter, turned out to see
the parade it was evident that the ad :
vance agent had done a lot of highly
effective advertising for his principals.
As soon as hs had eaten his breakfast,
and it was earlier than usual for many
OF him, the small boy began to be in
evidence on the show grounds and he
remained there till the parade uas
started when he followed it through
the streets and back to its canvass
home with never a thought OF weari-
ness.
He thoroughly enjoyed hisassociation
with Happy Hooligan" and the
clowns and took pleasure in watchin &
the ungainly. but dignified, march Of
the elephants To the small boy of the
community circus day" is the crown
ing achievement of the year; political

Brain Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded by the most compe-
tent authorities. They have dis
covered the silly notion that one
kind of food is needed for brain
another for muscle, and still an
other for bones. A correct diet
will not only nourish a particular
part of the body, but will sustain
every other part. Yet, however
good your food may be, its nutri-
ment is destroyed by indigestion
or dyspepsia. You must prepare
for their appearance or prevent
their coming by taking regular
doses of Green's August Flower,
the favorite medicine of the
healthy millions. A few doses
aids digestion, stimulates the liver
to healthy action, purifes the
blood and makes you feel buoyant
and vigorous. You can get DR..
Green's reliable remedies at D. A.

One Writer'S Views.

Ludden Correspondence in Fargo
Forum: The announcement that
Senator Geer is being consider
ed for nomination as senator on
the republican ticket is meeting with
the hearty approval of both republi-
cans and democrats in all parts OF
Dickey county. Republican leaders
in the senate have recognized the
merit of Senator Geer and he held
positions on many Of the most pro-
minent committees at the last session.
While he is in no sense an aspirant for
the nomination on any ticket, yet it
is generally known that he is not un-
appreciative of the high compliment
that the leading republicans of the
county and state are giving him in
asking him to accept a nomination
at their hands, and it is believed that
he will consent. He will receive the
support of all voters with the possible
exception of the "insurgent" elemest
Of the republican party.
