There were no tiresome waits.

every act being given with the pre- elsion of most of professionals and there was very little apparent stage fright. As a result there was noth- ing to detract from the enjoyment of the show by an audience that taxed the capacity of the Jefferson theatre. both afternoon and night, and was composed of Brmingham's most fep- resentative people.
 So much was done that space will not permit a detailed account of the circus in its entirity. The athletic fea- lures were notable and at times de- eidedly spectacular when the stage was full of clowns, acrobats tumblers and performers of many kinds. Work on the parallel bars. the horizontal bars, the really excellent hand balane- ing act of Eddie Burger. juggling and bending, general tumblng the spring board class and pyramids filled the first part brim full of novel and interesting acts. In part II Miss Florence Smith, assisted by Hugh Miller, Hubbard Smith and Sydney Lazarus. who was good in a comedy role, put on a bur glar playlet that made quite hit. Both Miss Smith and the members of her company acquitted themselves with much credit
 The Polish dancers contributed pretty and graceful feature that was enth usiastically encored. Professor George Longs physical demonstration brought his fine muscles into play for the edification of the audience and a stage full of girls and boys with In- dian clubs and dumbbells executed a drill to music that was well done. Ed Miles appeared also in an Indian club speciality that was done in cap ital style.
 The concluding speciality was one of the most artistic on the programme. in- troducing the Geisha girls in a sing ing and dancing number assisted by 12 young men. Miss Alice Fallon ap- peared in the principal vocal part and sang two songs in an altogether charming way. She was enth usiastic- ally received. The speciality was end ed with a cherry blossom dance in a shower of pink petals that fittingly brought to a close an entertainment that must have been gratifying to all those who were responsible for its sue cess and was greatly enjoyed by those l who were so fortunate as to attend.

If any man Of wealth is in search Of

Deaf and Dumb, at Margate. England.
This staff was erected in the first year of
the reign of King Edward VII in COM
memoration of his accession to the throne
The cost was betrayed by the pupils and
friends. The collection taken was so
large that it enabled the purchase Of
twenty flags. Even after the staff and
the flags were paid for, e4O remained in
the treasury. This sum was invested for
an endowment fund, and the interest is
used every other year in painting and re-
pairing the pole and tackle. Some of the
various flags bought are as follows: The
royal standard, which is flown on the
kings accession day, his birthday and
his coronation day; the Stars and Stripes.

On Being Poor.

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
Sometimes it seems as though the very
rich were to be pitied rather than the
poor We see men and women who have
heaped up great accumulation Of ma
teriaI possessions, and the end Of it all is
vanity and vexation of spirit. They do
not seem to 'know what to do with all
that they have. Il want something" said
one of these women to her doctor. ''and
1 don't know what it Is" The fear Of
losing a valuable patient kept the doctor
from expressing his innermost sentiments,
but If he had said what he thought it
would have been\ something like this:
my dear madam. the trouble with you Is
that all your life long you have pampered
and petted your own emotions, and been
as self sufficient as a camel crossing the
desert You have spent your time worry
ing about the trif1es and truffles Of life in
stead of the things of real concern and
Importance to mankind. On your own
head, in your own hands, the sin and the
saving lies Ny advice to you is to for
get the furnished silver button on your
footman's coat and the temperature of
in the welfare of other Notwithstanding
at Jerusalem, as it were, with the folk Of
your own household"
But suppose the doctor spoke his mind
thus candidly to his rich patient. 1t
would do no good. AS Thoreau said, 1T
takes two to speak the truth-one to
speak the truth and one to hear it, The
lear that sits beside the inner springs
of this woman was long ago atrophied by
her continuous self-indulgence. The doc
tors message would be a. though sent
