Notwithstanding the show was not a

apparently enjoyed themselves. The
crowd last night, however. was very
small and the usual gaiety and eX-
citement failed to materialize.
Taking everything into consldera-
ton the exhibition in the two rings
could be considered fair; the horses
pretty and the performers dressed
up nice" The most interesting per-
formance of the evening. and the one
which attracted the crowds attention
the most, was the bicycle riders.
there were six of these artists on
the stage at once, and the hair-raising
turns they gave merited the loud
applause from the audience. Wheels
of every description were performed
on. from those the size OF an ordi-
nary uInner plate to the one-wheel
contriyance. One of the performers,
evidently being the expert of the lot,
wheeled into the center OF the stage
with a tandem and after raising the
machine up on the hind wheel setting
on the rear seat, he climbed up to
the top still holding the bicycle on
the hind wheel.

Some sufferers from stomach trou-
bic have no appetite and even the
sight of food is distasteful to them.
Others have ravenous appetite.
The last condition is worse than the
first for the continual overlooking OF
the stomach further weakens that or
gan, the food lies nd'gested, gas

The blood. instead OF obtaining nour-
ishment from the digestive system,

Like the other organs the stom-
aoh calls upon the blood for strength
and nourishment TO sustain it In It's
daily work. 1t now receives a sup
ply loaded with poisons, or toxins"
as they are called. Thus the stomach
poisons it~elf. a process known by
physicians as "autointoxication." or
elf-poison'ng.
When this condition is reached
there Is one way to remedy it and
that Is to free the blood from these
poisons and then, by n rich, pure
