Through these delays the public
is compelled to experience tedious
wait. while the work of preparing
for the performance goes on.
| Again ii is considered an unneces-
sary hardship TO compel men and
horses to parade for two hours be-
fore beginning the exhibition, es-
pecially when it Is considered that
two shows every day are the rule
| with Buffalo Bits exhibition. BY
doing away with the street pageant
men and horses are fresh for tn cir
performance, and it would seem thai
the public is entitled to a perfect per-
formance, which it pays for, rather
than to free street parade which
gives at best but poor idea of the
magnitude of the Wild West exhibit
zion.
Another reason which has served
TO influence the decision is the fact
that merchants in the cities visited
object to parades because they inter
rupt business and interfere with gem
eral traffic. So strenuous is this OBJ
lection that in many cities a permit
to parade cannot be secured and in
other places the fee demanded is set
at such an eXorbitant rate that ii
practically prohibits street pageants.
In any event the management is
satisfied that the public prefer per-
formance given with snap and vigor.
displaying the best efforts of the par
Elephants, rather than to have their
entertainment interfered with on ac-
count of the fatigue of the partici-
pants after two or three hours of
street parading in all sorts of wealth
Ter.
The public is reminded, however,
that in moving the properties and
paraphernalia of the Wild West from
the railroad to the exhibition grounds
will in itself constitute a parade Of
greater interest and vasrly more nov
ell than any other organization can
offer. The engine and cars used in
"The Great Train Holdup" will be
accompanied by the original bandit
hunters of the Union Pacific as an
escort, and the sight will be one
which has never been seen in this or
any other country save in conjunc-
tion with Buffalo Bill's exhibition. |
The Indians and Rough Riders will |
ride their horses to the grounds. and |
the sight will be an ample reward for |
the elimination of the hackneyed par
ade of other days.
Incidentally IL may be mentioned |
that, when weather permits, Col |
Cody will take drive through the
streets to convince the pub

SQUARE
DEAL |
Bowditch, Webster

& Co., make this square deal offer be-
cause they are authorized to do so by
the makers of Mi-O-na tablets, and
they are willing to have this state
ment appear in the Journal because
they know the offer is genuine.
And while it may be that there are
about cases in 100 that are too far
gone for Mi-o-na to cure, we are will
ling and ready to take all the chances,
and if Mi-o-na does not cure, any
dyspeptic can have his money back.
Even with this liberal Offer
BOwditch, Webster & Co, will not have
to refund but a very small percent
age, because the 5 incurable dyspeptics
will find so much relief in Mi-o-na
that they will once again look upon the
sunny side of life, and will continue
to use Mi-o-na
Now, reader, you may say how can
the makers Of Mi-o-na make such an
offer? How do they know that so per
cent. of the users will be cured, and
that the other per cent or the in
curables, will be relieved?
Why, it's all very simple. We've
made this same offer in 1000 towns be-
fore we made it here, and we have fig
ured out the percentages, so that when
we make the statement we know it t.
be absolutely true.
"Mi-o-na tablets are truly great for
anyone that has stomach trouble. !
can not praise them too highly for
what they have done for me" Mrs.
w. D. Bennett, Bucksport, Me.
The price is only so cents box.
Sold and guaranteed in Watervile
by Geo. w. DOrr and in Gardiner by
C. H. Beane.
