RHODA ROYAL WORLD-TOURED
THREE-RING SHOWS
Cheap Excursion To The Worlds
Grandest and Best ALL Feature
Exhibition

THE BOURBON NEWS takes
pleasure in announcing to it's readers
that the famous Rhoda Royal Grand
est and Best Shows will be seen at
this place this season, and arrange
ments have been made with the rail-
road authorities, by which all who
desire to come to Paris, where these
day, October 6, can do so at greatly
reduced rates. A visit to this larg-
est of all big shows will constitute
a gala day long to be remembered,
and besides, it will furnish an Oppor-
tunity for seeing the largest amuse-
ment institution the world has ever
known. Under the largest tents ever
constructed will be shown the finest
geological collection on earth, in
Guiding the only riding lion ever ex-
hibited, the largest pair Of giant hip
popotami in captivity, two great
herds of performing elephants, a
drove of racing camels, the finest COL
lection of imported thoroughbred
horses ever owned by a single man
or corporation, and circus perform
ance embracing more high salaried
performers than any two shows can
boast, a school of almost humanity
educated horses that do everything
but talk, together with the most ex-
citing chariot and other races ever
seen under canvass. A grand street
procession occurs at 10 o'clock rain
or shine, when full mile OF glitter
ing dens of wild beasts will be exhib-
tied free upon the streets, and ten
different kinds of music will fill the
air with melody.

Mexico's Newest Dairy
Makes COntented Cows

The Hotel Hoxsey Dairy, of this
city, is not only one of the most mod
ern and finest in this section of Mis-
souri, but is probably the only dairy Of
it's kind outside of the larger cities.
In fact only a few of the large metro
politian hotels can boast of a dairy of
its own.
The dairy is the property Of T. J.
Hoxsey and John T. Buckner and is
located at the west end Of the Boule-
ward and where the Mexico Fair
grounds once were. In fact the mon
ster barn 100 feet long, 80 feet wide
and practically three stories high was
once the amphitheatre Of the Mexico
Fair Association.
The ground is a beautiful spread Of
blue grassed prairie with a large lake
in its eastern end that lends beauty to
the farm with its immense white barn
and level green turf.
On the southsside of the interior Of
the barn are the winter quarters Of the
herd which consists of pure bred jer-
seys, guernseys, holsteins and short
horns. At present there are % cows
in the herd. On the north side of the
barn Is the milking quarters with con-
crete floor, drains and special feeding
troughs. The barn is electrically
lighted andthe two electric milking
units add to the sanitary arrangement
so noticeable in the barn. The same

Buy Your Coal Direct
From Mine-Big Saving

The high cost Of coal is a thing of
the past! AT least, there are no COM
plants on this account-since the re-
moval Of government restrictions
among those who have learned how to
buy coal. The way to buy coal is to
get it direct from the mines. This
saves several middlemen's profits 1t
saves hauling expenses. Anyone can
now buy at mine prices, whether a
carload buyer or one who uses only
ten or fifteen tons a year. This has
been made possible through a plan
evolved by a large and old-established
concern, THE BERNICE COAL COM
PANY, with main offices at $50 Como
Building, Chicago.
This company has thousands of GUS
toners in various sections Of the
United States who receive all Of their
coal direct from the mines. These
customers are pleased not only be-
cause of the many dollars they save
every year, but also because Of the
quality Of coal they are getting. Many
write that they never before had coal
that makes SC little dust, that burns
so well, leaving so few ashes. II you
are a coal user-whether you use hard
or soft coal, much or litle--it will be
greatly TO your advantage to write
the BERNICE COAL CO., at once for
prices, stating kind and quantity Of
coal you use. ADV.
