No tongue can tell what suffered from cramps, and at times could hardly walk. The doctors said I might die at one of those times, but took Lydia E.

The union of Buffalo Bills Wild West and Pawnee Bills Far East brought together two great factors Tn out-of-door entertainment. The mer- ger sprung into immediate popularity owing to it's presenting subjects delin- eated by born and bred races connect ed herewith. This popularity shows the masses thirst for knowledge III the practical life of different peoples, now brought into close business and social relations, who were In. olden days, so far different from each other as to be almost as mystical as those on Mars. The show will be seen at the circus grounds. West End, May 5, afternoon and evening.

In a .kiadred manner Cody and Lduie bring genuine sample representatives of the different human species in person, identified with the fast passing primitive peculfarities of nomadic life, once common to our own cruited from to form this composite study of racial peculiarities-the East ern and Western.
 The Wild West section will adhere to the depletion of the historic conditions. now almost obsolete, which have been so realistically and truthfully por- trayed in the past, and have also added some novelties in arrangement and ep- isodes, giving 8 refreshing interest to the patron.

 The Far East will be represented by an Oriental spectacle of beauty and eplendor, introducing the many pictur- esQue types which inhabit the roman tic East, in a multitudinous program of native diversions, introducing a most astounding elephant act that de- Scription can not faithfully relate visual inspection alone can grasp.
