BIG CIRCUS ANNOUNCED
Barnum and Baily Greatest Show
on Earth Coming to Durham.

Barnum and Baily Greatest Show
on Earth Coming to Durham.
As the billboards and dead
walls about the city are ANNOUNCE
ling in vivid pictures the Barnum
and Bailey Greatest Show on
Earth is to give two perfor-
mances in Durham on Saturday,
October 23d, which news is in
teresting, and particularly so
since the policy of the manage
ment this season is to again pre-
sent a street parade in the fore
noon. The parade will be more
elaborate, too, than any given in
the past by a circus.
The history Of the Barnum and
Bailey circus is part of the his
tory of America. With the stall
wart P. T. Barnum as its origi-
nator and founder and thepioneer
of all great arenic affairs, and its
earlier achievements perpetuated
by James A. Bailey, the manage
ment has ever maintained a
standard of magnitude and
strength approached by no other
show. 1t is the only circus
whose tours cover the entire
globe.
There is not a land so remote
but the management has an
agent there, and not a city of
any size in any country where
this circus has not exhibited.
With the advantage of this for
eign prestige, the entire world
in a business sense becomes the
store house Of this circus from
which it draws from time to time
all that is strange and interest
ing for exhibition purposes.
This years program is one of
unusual interest even for this
circus. 1t embraces all the Euro
pean talent which appeared dur
ing the past winter, the mena-
gerie has been vastly increased.
and various other original fea-
lures have been added.
The performance, under the
largest canvas ever spread, is
given in the vast dome, on two
stages, in three rings and On a
half mile race course. There
are comfortable seats for $1,000
people in this one tent. The cir
Gus employs 1,5GO men and wo-
men and 700 HORSES and carries
equipment that requires five
trains of double-length cars.
The regular program is intro
duced this season By a spectacle
more gorgeous and interesting
than those Of the past and the
long program ends with hair
raising act by Desperate, who
leaps from the dome of,the tent.
LANDING below on his chest. No
so-called thriller of the past can
be mentioned with this wonder
full and daring act. In addition
there is Jupiter. the balloon
horse, which goes up in a balloon
and descends amid a shower Of
fireworks.

DURHAM. N. c., Oct. Z, 1909.
WHO PAYS THE MOST TAXES.

For one we must admit that
we are sick and tired of the old
argument that Mr.. so and sc is
m favor of some local issue for a
special tax and he pays more
taxes than anybody in the COM
munity. It may be that in dol
lars and cents a certain wealthy
man in a community pays more
taxes than any other, but are not
his values greater. and does he
not get greater returns for the
money invested.
There is a way to prove the
question, and we do not hesitate
to say that when a man gives in
more in value than $4,000 he
pays less taxes according to the
amount of property than any
man that gives in less. Look
sver the field in any community
sr section and you will find That
sne influential citizen THAT is the
man that holds the largest pos
sessions) pays less according to
the value OF his property than
the fellow that only gives in five
hundred or a thousand dollars.
Admitting that the wealthy
man pays dollar for dollar the
same as his less fortunate broth
er, is it any reason why he
should be held up as an example
to guide the actions of other peo-
pie. Does he not do what every
man who pays his taxes does
pay for the protection of the
amount Of property he has?
For instance, it is stated on
good authority that there are
buildings in Durham whose tax
value would not pay for the brick
alone that goes into the wall of
the building mot to mention the
woodwork or the land upon
thich the buildings stand.

A PUBLIC BENEFIT.
Marietta People Greatly Inter

the w. A. Sans Drug Co.

The people have already demonstra-
strated that they would ratLer trust q
man who ia naturally honest than one
who is honest only because he had 20

established reputation for square deal.
ing and sterling honesty. When they told
the people that Rexall Remedies are
the purest and most dependable medi.
cines that it is possible for modern
science to produce, and that they would
tell the public what each one OF these
300 or more remedies contained, and
that they sold Rexall Remedies on
their personal guarantee that they
would give entire satisfaction or they
would not cost the user single cent,
they were believed.
Ever since this announcements, the
W. A. Sans Drug Co.'s store has been
largely patronized by people buying
Rexall Remedies, all of which proves
that this store has the con tldence Of the
people and that honesty is the best
policy.
There is no "cure-all" among the
Rexall Remedies. There are different
and separate medicines, each one de-
vised for certsin human ailment or a
class of ailments closely allied. For
instance, Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets are
recommended for the positive relief of
stomach irritation, indigestion, flatu-
lency and dyspepsia. They are rich in
Bismuth- Subnitrate, Pepsin and Car
initiatives. They are prepared by spe-
cial processes which perfect and en-
nance the great remedial value of these
well known medicinal agents. This
remedy sells for 25 cents. so cents, and
81 90 per package. Every one suffer.
ing from stomach disorder should try
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets, inasmuch as
they cost nothing if they 10 not satisfy.
Remember, the w. \ Sans Drug Co =
store is the only store in Marietta
where these remedies may be obtained,
and every one in need of medicine is
urged to investigate and take advan-
tage of the frank and generous manner
in which they are sold.
