you? Well, you didn't. Elephants
have to put things into their mouths
to smell them. An elephant does
not smell with his trunk. In the
roof of his mouth, way back, are two
openings. They're his smelling ap-
paratus. He puts everything there
to test it. Tough as an elephants
hide is an old saying and an ac-
cepted truth. AS a matter of fact
an elephant has the tenderest skin in
the world. Flies annoy him and
mosquitoes are his worst enemy.
They cover themselves with dirt as
protection.
"The first elephant exhibited in
America was brought over in 1921
by Hackalian Bailey. The animal
was named Old Bet. It was not at
tached to circus but was exhibited
in barns during the day for an ad-
mission fee of 10 cents. At night
it was taken from town to town
swathed in blankets so curious

country folk could not get free
glimpse of it. 1t created a sensa-
tion and, sadly enough it was shot
by a miscreant who wanted to see il
bullet would pierce its thick
sideS.'
The Sells-Floto Circus brings with
them this season Happy and Lucky,
the famous twin baby elephants.
These little fellows are already won
derfully trained and are driven tam
dem by Mile. Fora. 1t is a marvel
Gus feat considering the fact that
heretofore it has been considered i'm
possible to train elephants to drive
tandem.
The Sells-Floto Circus will exhibit
here in Salem on Thursday, June 8.
The Sells-Floto people make the
wonderful announcement that they
have again cut the price of admis-
sion in half and it is possible to see
this great show in its entirety for
the nominal sum.

SHE STAYED IN BED.

Ingram, Texas,-"Ever since I be-
came a woman" writes Mrs. E. M.
Evans, of this place, 81 suffered from
womanly troubles. Last fall, got
so bad, l had to stay in bed for near
ly a week every month. Since l
have taken Cardui, 1 feel better than
l have for years." You can rely on
Cardui. 1t acts on the womanly or
gans and helps the system to regain
its normal state of health, in nat
ural way. Prepared especially for
women, 1t prevents womanly pains
by acting on the cause, and builds up
womanly strength in a natural way.
Purely vegetable. Mild, but certain
in action. Try it.

SELLS-FLOTO
Big CIRCUS
HERE JUNE 8

without the elephant, what would
be the circus? 1t would be as the
julep without the mint, as beans
without pork, as the theatre without
stage"
These are the metaphors expressed
by Fred Alispaw boss elephant man
with the Sells-Floto Circus. Fred is
the real thing in elephant trainers.
He has been mixed up with the big
fellows for sixteen years, though he
is only 80 years old. But then Fred
loves them, and they love him in
their elephantine way Once in a
while one of them grows peevish and
might make great deal of trouble
if Fred did not know just what to do.
you remember the story they
used to tell in McGuff's Fourth
Reader, says Alispaw, "about the
bad boy who gave the elephant a
lighted cigar and how twenty years
later the elephant met the boy, now
a man, and gave him deserved
drubbing.
"All tommyrot Beautiful senti-
ment, but nature fake. An elephant
remembers single keeper, but when
all is said and done his gray matter
wouldn't fill pint cup. That's a
fact.
There's another bit of sentiment
that's rubbish When you were a
lad or lass you remember how the
good people who we're older than you
and hence must know better, told
you that an elephant stood in terror
of a mouse; and that he would
shiver and shake when tiny rodent
was about lest aforesaid rodent run
up the lovely mousehole in his
trunk. All wrong. Not that mouse
isn't capable of frightening an ele-
phant, for it is. An elephant is
frightened at his shadow; he Is
scared at piece of paper, at nothing
at all, unless he sees it squarely.
Should he get only glimpse of 1t he
will do all our old friends say.
Another thing. You can tell the
height of an elephant by its foot.
Twice around an elephants foot at
the ground represents its height.
This is a rule that never fails. In
India the natives, chasing an ele-
phant herd, can tell how many there
are and how big they are by examin-
ing their tracks.
did you ever give a paper bag to
an elephant and see him put 1t in his
mouth, and then moment later
laugh to see him spit 1t out?
Thought you'd fooled him, didn't

Will WHEAT REACH THE

There is much speculation in ABB
Iene Just now as to just how high
the cereal will go, 1t has been ad-
vancing steadily. Yesterday 1t made
grandstand leap, going from 80
to "a cents in one grand bound.
A few weeks ago the price was IS
cents. 1t has already advanced 10
cents.
No one wants to predict as to the
future local price. Many farmers
however, are holding their wheat de-
claring they will sell only when II

cent price is bringing out very little
more wheat than came in when 1t
was 75 cents.

Now that the good roads move

MUIR RAY

As an international producer, B. A.
Rolfe has gained great reputation,
but the top notcher of all his musical
comedy playleets is without doubt
"The Leading Lady" which has been
accorded the title of the best minia-
ture comedy in vaudeville today. This
is due in part to the merit of the play
itself and is also due in great meas
ure to the ability of the leading mem
bers of the very capable cast provided
for it's Interpretation. The principal
roles are entrusted to Miss Mercedes
Lorenz, pretty soubrette, and Mr..
Ralph Lynn, a clever English come
dian, assisted by Ed Coleman. Don't
fail to see this big production at the
Murray this week.
Another big feature of the bill is
Duffy and Sawtelle who surely deserve
all the honors given them. They are
entertainers of the best order. Scin-
tilla is violinist who finds herself fol
self following closely on the heels OF
several of the noted violinists On
several occasions during the week she
has been compelled to respond to an
encore after the ringing down of the
curtain.
