HIPPO WITH A SORE THROAT
Real Fun Around, the Circus When Big
Animal Is Out of Sorts.

There r a good many things to
cause excitement. around a circus. But
the one real thing with the Sells-Floto
circus and Buffalo Bill (himself)
which is coming. here Saturday, July
IL, is when Bon gets the sore throat,
Bon, by way of explanation, is the
hippopotamus. He has been with the
Sells-F1oto circus ever since his baby
hood days and he is. the privileged
character Of the m%enagerie. That is,
except when he decides to, catch q
cold. Then he becomes the menagerie's
baby again.
For when anything happens to Bon
the attendants sit up nights. They
gather near his tank cage they look
at him. they talk in serious tones adm
worry like a mother and father over
a brand new baby. And it's a hard
proposition to tell Just what to do
when an animal which spends most
Of its time in the water catches cold.
However, the matter usually is
solved by Fred Alispaw, the head ami
NAL a With the first wheeze from
Bon hurrying a man rushes out of the
menagerie and to the cook tent. A
moment he returns with a fattened
handful of dough, laid out like a pie
crust. The medicine chest ONE open
and a 'quinine pie with enough of
the bitter medicine to cure a regiment
in it, is rolled up in the pie dough.
A command, and Bon opens his
mouth. Alispaw swings an arm some
what after the fashion Of a big league
pitcher. while Bon gulps and pops
his eyes. The quinine is down..
But that's just the beginning. Wits
key m next-in spit of the fact
that Bon spends practically all his
time on the water wagon-or rather
in the water tank. Again the huge
Jaws are opened and a quart Of the
liquor Is poured down him. Then
comes the call for the mop.
And then. something after the fash
ion Of a man digging postholes, OF
cleaning a chimney. Alispaw, the NOR
saturated with throat antiseptic
swabs out the great tunnel. while Bon
,blinks his eyes n wiggles his funny
little ears in appreciation. It's nc
easy life for an animal man when a
hippopotamus has a sore throat.
Bon is n of the features Of the
menagerie Of the Sells-F1oto. circus

rival Of Madame Murphy of the Cen.
