DR.. BOUCHELLE

DR.. L. B. Bouchelle of Thomasville,
Ga, a physician well known in the
South, is very enthusiastic over the
cod liver oil preparation Vinol. He
says: Il have used Vinol in my fam
lily and in my general practice with
the most satisfactory results 1t is
exceedingly beneficial to those afflict-
ed with bronchial or pulmonary dis
eases and to create strength
The reason Vinol is so far superior
to- old fashioned cod liver oil and
emulsions, is because it is a real cod
liver preparation from which all the
useless oil has been eliminated and
tonic iron added
We ask every weak thfn,y rum
down, nervous and aged person in
town, and all those suffering from
chronic colds, coughs and weak lungs,
to try Vinol on our guarantee.

CIRCUS PLEASES
 \ LARGE CROWD
Two Excellent Performances
 Given by the Cole Show
HIPPODROME A FEATURE
Exciting Races Are Run and Acrobatie Work On the Circus Stage Also Most commendable-Ele-
 phants Make Hit.

The Cole Bros. show gave two excellent performances at Smiths park yesterday afternoon and last night that were well attended and greatly enjoyed. Although yesterday marked the official opening of the season and the circus employees have not had time to fully adjust themselves to the work in hand, everything passed off smoothly and there were no delays. s.. The parade yesterday morning was a creditable affair and was witnessed by many people on the streets. The newly painted dens, new costumes and sleek, well kept animals made a pleasing show and elicited much favorable comment. All the circus wagons were pretty and attractive. while the stock and the ami mals seemed to be in fine condition.
 Although the steam piano went on 8 rampage-or, rather, the horses drawing 1t did-and caused some excitement on Twenty-first street in the vicinity of the county court house, the parade passed off successfully. On the return of the caravan to the grounds Mile. D'Zizi ''spanned deaths arch" a thrilling open air act which consists of leaping a gap
  on 0 bicycle,
 The most pleasing features of the per formance may be summed up in the open ing tournament some fine acrobatic work, exhibitions of exceptionally well trained horses, the trained elephants and the hip podrome races. The Pecheco family did some magnificent leaping, tumbling and pyramid work. A team of trick bicycle riders also won great applause for their skill, and there were many other acts that were well received.
 The animals came in for their share of the honors. A team of elephants went through a startling performance with their trainer and some handsome man age" horses were put through their paecs. The usual bareback riding was also done in the rings, while there was something interesting to be seen all the time on the central stage.
 The performance was brought to a close by stirring hippodrome races, including running races, tandem races, man against-horse race, four-horse standing races. comcal clown race, boys races and Roman chariot race.
 The menagere was a place of much interest to visitors. The animals are in fine fettle after their winter rest from travel, and all are in excellent condition.
 The general neatness. pewness and att tractiveness of the circus was a source of frequent remark The management has spared no pains to have every depart ment in first-class order, and the Cole Bros show begins the season of 1906 most auspiciously.
 Another performance will be given this afternoon, and after the performance to- night the show will start out on it's tour. Spanning Deaths Arch" will be given this afternoon at 1 o'clock instead of this morning, as previously announced
