You Are Rich.
Have you good health? And a
family to support?
Then Won are rich

Have you good health? And a
family to support?
Then you are rich.
Health is wealth. 1t is more than
capital; more than labor. 1t is both
combined. 1t is ability, opportun-
ity, success. Without it the richest
man is poor. With it the poorest
man is wealthy.
The trouble with most of us is
that we do not know how to make
a proper inventory of the best things
of life. We lose sense of proper
ton. We put some things too high
and others too low. We put money,
ease, luxury too high and good
health too low. We forget that
many a wealthy man would give
thousands for q stomach.
And your family. There's wealth
for you. An incumbrance? A bur-
den on your back? Man alive,
there's where you lose your clear
sense of things that are worth while
in life. One of the greatest needs
of human life is incentive-some-
thing to live for.

The Day Of the Season.

The day we should celebrate. In
the feeting years since it's concep-
tion the circus has evolved from its
pristine glory to a realization of al
most superlative magnifcencc and
this year when Gollmar Bros
Greatest of American Shows appear
here our people will have the OPP
portunity of seeing the acme of it's
greatness. The reputation of the
Gollmar Bros. as amusement pur-
veyors is co-extensive with the
country, and the name of the estab-
lishment is synonymous with pledg-
es kept and promises fulfilled. The
shows this season are larger, more
perfect in appointment and equip
age and comprise more unique fea-
lures than ever before in the history
of the enterprise, and transported
in special trains of monster double
1engthed cars, it's arrival in the
towns along the route is like the
advent of a colossal royal retinue.
Circus, museum, menagerie and
hippodrome; spreading city of
white tops, covering acres of ground
is needed to house the mammoth
establishment. Hera1ding the two
daily grand exhibitions is the new
featured free street pageant COM
prising medieval, military and
spectacular tableau effects never be-
fore seen in circus pageants. Ser
ried ranks of richly robed knights
and ladies, realistic groupings from
the pages of tournament history, al
legoric floats, and magnificent
chariots, royalty carved, gold gilt
erting, and enmirrored, dazzle the
eye and charm the senses, while the
music from three great bands fills
the ear with strains of inspiring
melody. Here roll great open dens
in which are seen in restless stride
savage denizens from the earth's
deepest jungles, there in stately
triumph tramp monster elephants.
Here herds of diminutive ponies,
equine midgets of royal blood, there
the naughty march of richly capar-
isoned steeds, all in line. marking
the street pageant of Goll1nar Bros
Greatest of American Shows, the
greatest, most beautiful and grand
ly glorious free street procession
ever organized to advertise the mer-
it of a tented amusement enterprise.
Don't forget the date the shows
come, Saturday, July Is, with pro-
gram of 100 arenic and hippodrome
feature acts, an army of horses and
host of gentleman and lady per-
formers. Two performances daily;
doors open 100 and ZOO p. m.

Good Templars' Chautauqua
River Falls July 22-28
A Fine Array of Talent. Pros
fitable Time Assured. Aft
ernoon and Evening
Lectures.

The Good Templars are arrang-
ing for Chatauqua to be held here,
beginning on Tuesday, July %,
and continuing over Sunday, July
%.
The talent secured is as follows:
Prof. O. w. Blain of Michigan,
who illustrates his lectures by NOV
ing picture entertainment. Mr..
Blain has a world reputation as one
of the best temperance lecturers.
His stereoptican pictures are the
finest that could be procured.
Hon. Charles Oliver Merica of
Indiana, six years Superintendent
of the State Industrial School at
Waukesha, Wis, presents his lecture,
"The Boy Who Goes Wrong" one
of the finest on the platform. Hon.
William P. Lyon, ex-Chief Justice
for Wisconsin, says of Prof. Merica:
Il have known few public speakers
who are his equal in the possession
of the qualifications requisite for
success in that line. Pleasing in
personal address, of broad, schol-
arly attachments, his use of beauti
full language makes him most
gifted orator"
Miss Lillian NJ Phelphs of ST.
GATHERINGS, Ontario, one of the
strong lecturers in the temperance
work and is connected with the w.
T. C. u. Her lecture is "The Eter-
nal City"
AS lady speaker on the temper
ance question, Miss Phelps has no
equal in Canada. Toronto Mail.
Franklin Caveny of Boston, one
of the most famous cartoonists and
chalk entertainers in the country.
Caveney's chalk-talk was a clever
and unique entertainment. Mr..
Caveney certainly demonstrates
that he is a wonder with the chalk.
He is certainly the peer of any art
ist-lecturer who has ever appeared
in Macon.-Macon (Ga.) News.
The Philodine Male Quartette,
and Miss Katherine Carroll Smith,
reader, a very pleasing combina-
ton. The quartette is composed of
Ripon College students and has
very good record and is sure TO
please. Miss Smith has appeared
in River Falls before. AS an inter
prefer of the Irish dialect she is par
excellence. Irish by birth, the de-
licious tongue is hers by birthright
and her delightful stories, given
