Barnes Wild Animal, circus, is here today arrang ing for the appearance of the Barnes show in La Grande, on Tuesday, May "Wherein does the wild animal cir cus differ from the old-time .jregula; tion circus was asked.",' ,; y -"The Barnes circus ia -different be- cause the entire entertainment offered is given by trained Animals- largely, wild animals," replied Mr, Pennock. G. - Barnes, the wild j animal training wizard and proprietor of the Barnes shows, was the originator of tha Wild .animal circus, launching the innovation -nine years ago.- That the? new amusement idea.- met with ap proval from the public . is attested by i ha for-1 hin riri-iis now. ranks as tile largest animal show in the world.'; - "for thirty-five years,, Mr. Barnes has been a trainer of wild animals,' and early in his career decided that! the nubile would . welcome an exclu-;. " ! slve, clean wholesome entertainment' - i l . . J nniA,ai, . -1 tn given oy- euutuvci wiiHimoi, " . that purpose he bent his : efforts. Every one of the 600 acting animals now with this great show, has beau trained under his - personal , ' super vision the greatest number ; assem bled in one collection.-'. - . "Ritr thi-illinir. - sensational ' wild. animal features predominate on the program jlions, ... tigers, . jeoparas, jaguars, pumas a'nd bears being nhnwn in oreat croups. Twenty-four African lions appear in the arena at one time under one trainer's direction. Elephants, camels, zebraa, seals, sea lions, Kangaroos, aogs, goais, mon keys and a -troupe of 550 beautiful hdrse3 and ponies are a part of . thiB animal-acting aggregation." "A manv sided man, is our Mr. Barnes. , He fondles the Hons, tigers and bears and they answer nis can as that of a friend. When they be come unrulv or "tro bad." Barnes be comes the trainer and reduces the beasts to a state of tractibility again. He is known as the only circus owner in the 'world who can work any act in the show.' Horses are his particular hobby, and with his show can be seen some of the finest bred -, and best trained--horses known to exist."

The moment your back hurts or kid neys aren't acting right, or if bladder bothers you, get about four ounces of J ad Salts from any good pharmacy; take a tnblespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a. few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity ; also to neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer irri tates, thus ending bladder disorders. Jnd Salts cannot injure anyone; makes a delightful effervescent lithia water drink which millions of men and women take now and then to keep the kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus avoiding serious kidney disease, - LED WINNING FIGHT FOR WOMEN'S VOTE f ;ia o 1 x v v J HHfltl - I fTFS . r.:;ht at 0 o'clock: Maximum, 68; Minimum So.
