GREAT CIRCUS
ONLY WOMAN ELEPHANT

The man who started out to ex-
plot a circus without the elephant
would be apt to discover that he had
mistaken his vocation. Because,
somehow or other, whenever we
think circus, we think of these huge
pachyderms and II takes us back to

pigeons blood rubies.

when the big show comes to town aud
makes its parade, people stand along
the sidewalk and count the elephants.
Then they go over to the lot in the
afternoon and sit in judgment upon

here on Saturday, June Is, has nj
