THE GAME or LEAP FROG
Gentry Brothers Have Pony, a Dog

Unique Stunt.

The games of childhood have been

afraid of the leaping dog But pa
thence and kindness finally brought

Their leader is a milk white steed

with the show is hastily summoned.
He prescribes a never failing dose
for the sick pony. When the diminu-

in the ring the monkey doctor picks

pony's leg be cut off. That cures the
