The sober man isEgoing to have the
call next season. Boozing troupers are
going to find it harder and harder to
place themselves with each recurring
year. In the old wagon show days ways
used to tell tyros and gills that circus

places about the city and numerous
falls have resulted. One of the most
dangerous spots is the steps leading to
the post Office. A lady sustained a Sc

some other substance to render them
less dangerous.

advantage of the absence of the owners
recently, secured pictures of Ringing
place, Shell Beach, near Sarasota, Fla,
which have been turned into post cards.
The scenes are ravishingly beautiful.
Lovely walks and drives wind hither
