IN UP-TO-OATE SHOW
There Is a tradition among circus
men that the alee and character of a
ahow are Indicated to a great extent by
the number of Its elephants. 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. The acts In the end rings
are notable, but the battle scene pre
sented In the middle ring by the eight
Utile elephants Is the most remarkable
exhibition nf the kind ever seen In this
country. The Asiatic method of firing
rlffes and cannon from the backs ol!
elephants Is strikingly Illustrated. Ele
phants are also used lo striking ad
vantage In the gorgeous "Peace" spec
tacle. The baby elephant and mother
also attract a good deal of attention.
Among other trained creatures urn
pigs, dogs, horses, sea lions, monkeys
and sheep. Several of the clowns use
trained animals In their performances
and the. effect la very ludicrous. A
grest circus performance, a splendid
menagerie and an exciting revival nf
the old Rentan hippodrome races are
features of this year's ahow.
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

What's the use of earin', anyhow?"
said tho scrawny dyspeptic to his ro
tund, prosperous-looking friend.
•'Here I've been eatln’ three times
day, and sonietlmevljvlce a day. for 50
years, and look at me. I'm rawboned
nnd skinny, etlll nt the bottom of the
ladder, sour on the world, nnd a pes
simist. I know It, and I can't help It.
If I had It to do over ngaln, tho
I would take care of my stomach,
I don't believe I ever really relished a
meal In my life, not even mother’s
Christmas dinners, and 1 firmly believe
that my way of eating, or whatever It
was, brought along with It darkness
and Impossibility of success."
"You're right." nodded his compan
ion. "Of course, that Isn't nlwnys the
case. Hut In this age we must not only
Trust In the laird and keep our pow
der dry.' but we must swallow sunshine
with our food. Cheerfulness, especial
ly while eating, which Is tho most **
sentlal act of man. Is ns necessary to
him as sunshine Is to the flowers.
Nothing normal can be produced In

But this Is what you haven't been

Absolutely, ye*. Science has made
It possible to get the sunshine, the

One Ingredient In these tablets digests
