EARLY DAYS OF THE CIRCUS
Methods by Which Rivals Fought
Each Other Were Not Always
Fair as Might Have Been.

In what we refer to as the "oppOsl-
ton days" says Mr.. John Ringing in
the American Magazine. circus life
was full of thrills. 1t was real war
fare against powerful enemies, a fight
for existence on our part. When we
had begun to grow and had established
our policy of honesty and clean shows.
the big fellows fought us hard.
One of their favOrite tricks was to
slip into our parade a wagon with
large signs announcing that we were
nice little show, but that the big show
was coming next week. 1t was con-
slant fight to prevent the wagon from
getting into our parade. Once Charles
Ringing quietly announced that he
would give a five-dOllar gold piece for
each nut from It; and when it started
to join our parade 1t fell to pieces like
the "one-hoss shay" On another Oc-
CasiOn some of our men sawed its
timbers, so that at the first heavy
jolt it collapsed in a heap. Another
time, the opposition hid the objection
dbic NdSOu OuI III lIiG NOubliS but
Charles learned which road it would
take and fixed a bucket Of green paint
with a hose and force pump under
bridge. When it started TO cross the
bridge, our men pumped and squirted
paint until all the lettering was oblit-
Grated.
Such unfair fighting never prOfited
the opposition to any great extent.
Indeed, it aroused sentiment in our
favor. 1t is question In my mind
now whether 1t would not have been
better policy to permit the wagon TO
parade with us and to rely upon the
sense Of fair play of the American
public but it was hard to see it In
that light when we were fighting for
existence.

EVER SYMBOLS OF RELIGION
Before the Days of Christianity
Leaves of the Glover Plant Were
Used as illustrations.

Even In Druidic worship In pre-
Christian times the trefoil leaves of
the clover plant were symbols of re-
ligion, setting forth the three grades
of Druids, Bards and Neophtes. In
Christian mythology its leaf is fire.
quently held TO symbolic the Trinity
and some Irish authorities insist that
1t Is the true and original shamrock
which st. Patrick used to illustrate
how three separate objects, such as
leaves, could be one.
The four-leaf clover is a freak
growth, and the causes that produce
it are heredity and nutrition. After
a moist season clover plants with from
four to seven leaves, and some hav-
ing only two leaves, are found. Some
plants are abnormal by heredity, and
reproduce themselves with the same
characteristics in successive years
when their environment remains the
same external influences merely mOdi-
flying the size of the leaves.
The four-leaf clover is everywhere
held as an omen of good luck to the
finder, partly on account of its rarity
and partly because of its crosslike
form. In Germany it is believed a
four-leaf clover will overcome witch
cry, win love- guard one from danger
when travelling, and secure a safe re-
turn, and If plucked on st. Johns eve
will enable the finder to work won
ders in magic.

Wisdom in Loading Up Work

Because other folks do not organize
their work they get tired and quit. Or
it may be they lose their nerve be-
cause they do not see the way out. You
have come into your powers so grad
ually that it seems second nature to
you. Accordingly you hustle along
with keen satisfaction while the other
fellow worries or even gives up.
There's nothing like loading up when
you do 1t wisely. Besides adding to
your own strength you are doing some
thing that benefits your fellow men.
You profit on two scores. The salts
faction of knowing you are doing your
full share and the praise men will give
when they realize what you are con
tributing toward the worlds welfare.
The weakling can gain strength, and
the strong man become a benefactOr
when they use their heads in loading
up. Begin today to rise into your
heritage. Load up.

Measuring Earth's circumference.

Erastothenes. who lived between 275

to measure the earth's circumference
and adopted the same method that is
employed at present. He found that
the distance between Syene and Alex
andria was one-fftieth of a great cir
cle-about seven degrees ID minutes
and on this basis computed the circum-
ference of the earth TO be 25O,OOC

dunn he used is not known and 1t is

that she and l had failed to exchange

ly vulgar to complain to anybody
about ones husband! l sat in my

soon found myself among those pres

"But Deb never would have come

would have made her homecoming
