While this Is not strictly true, and a circus with a large herd of elephants might give a very Inferior performance In the ring, these Interesting animals are un doubtedly thn backbone of the travel ing menagerie, They are always source of amusement to the crowd* who throng .the circus tents and whai get keen enjoyment out of .a bag of peanuts and a swaying trunk that seems built for handling more satis fying forage: but, apart from this, they are utilised In the performance In such way os to establish a place for them selves on the program among the other actors." Those who attend the performances of the Barnum A Bailey circus, when the big show exhibits In Atlanta Octo ber 11-20, will be astonished at the feats of ths trained elephants. The three rings ars entirely filled with the great beasts.

Every Day She Said Earlv in the morning before dressing, “Now I nAist quit drinking coffee, I know it causes my weak heart and the ever increasing nervousness. These troubles get steadi ly worse and what will the end bet” But when the cof fee comes on at breakfast she says, “Well, just this one cup,” and so it goes from day to day the same old round ad the bodily ailments growing worse as time goes on. The coffee habit acts like a personal demon, ever ready to offer excuses and to steadily push his victim one step down each day and laugh at the good resolutions. But there’s a way and a sure way to kill off that de men. Order the Coffee kept off the* table and Postum Food Coffee served in its place. Then one can have the hot breakfast beverage with the deep seal brown of cof fee, changing to a rich golden Brown when cream is added, and, with a flavor all its own, the Postum comes as a strong friend in need. The change in feeling will begin within a day or two, generally the first day. The drug of coffee (caffeine) has l»een cut off and the bodv and nerves relieved, then <-omes the sturdy feeling of new life and new healthy cells being built in from the rebuilding food in Postum. Gradually the old aches and ails disappear and the joy and swing of health comes again. You can prove it in your own case. “Therre’s a Reason” for POSTUM DR. C. M.
