A SUSTAINING Diet.

These are the enervating days, when,
as somebody has said, men drop by
the sunstroke as if the Day of Fire
had dawned. They are fraught with
danger to people. whose systems are
poorly sustained: and this leads us to
say, in the interest of the less robust
to our readers, that the full effect of
Hoods Sarsapafilla is such as to sug-
gest the propriety of calling this medi-
cine something besides blood puri-
fer and tonic.-say, a sustaining diet.
1t makes it much easier to hear the
heat, assures refreshing sleep, and will
without any doubt avert much sick
ness at this time of year.

Robbins Circus JULY IL.

The Bangor News has the following
to say concerning Frank A. Robbins
circus, which exhibited in Bangor,
June %.
'"The Frank A. Robbins circus which
exhibited at Maplewood park was the
big attraction for Bangor people Mon
day night and, as the afternoon per-
formance the "big top was nearly
filled to its capacity. The show gave
eminent satisfaction from first to
last.
The Robbins show is g one-ring one
and has the advantage over the larger
ones in that the spectators can take
in everything at glance. Everything
takes place in the ring and the acts are
not so long that they become monoto-
nous. The performance runs along
smoothly without a break and lasts
about two hours and a half.
The star feature of the show is "the
dip of death and jump of the gap" by
Dare Devil Herr on a bicycle. Herr
gets away up in the top of the tent
while on the other side of the ring is
partner swinging on trapezc by mis-
feet and holding another trapeze for
Herr At the signal, Herr lets loose his
bicycle and dashes down the sharply
inclined platform. When the bicycle
strikes the upward slope of the plat
form, Herr is projected upwards and
into space but in such fashion that he
catches the suspended trareZe which
his partner is holding for him. 1t is
certainly thriller.
Another act which greatly pleases
the feminine portion of the audience
and also all others who like intelligent
horses is that of La Belle Clark and
her dancing horse. Grand Duke. The
animal goes through all the latest dane
ing steps from the waltz to a clog
dance and does them well. Finally two
pigeons are released from a basket
and go through a series of interesting
manoeuvres with their mistress. A
hoop is attached to one of the forefeet
of the horse, who elevates is so that
a little dog can jump through it.
The Gregory Family did tight-ropc
and bareback acts that were very good.
The Aerial Lloyds on the trapeze per-
formed some stunts that are not often
seen hereahouts, while the Moore Sis
ters and Ray Dee twisted themselves
into all kinds of shapes.
During the brief interlude of the per-
Torrance the clowns and bevy of
dancing girls went through amusing
stunts and dances which pleased.
The menagerie attracted considerable
attention There is a worlds largest
camel and small elephant besides a
bear, lion, leopard, goats, ponies,
cockatocs and monkeys. The bear at
tracted the most attention as Sunday
he made a meal of a baby monkey
which happened to come his way and
people stopped to wonder how the
siman agreed with his digestion"
The Frank A. Bobbps' circus will
come to Augusta, Saturday. July II.
