The Sells-Floto shows, coming to Pendleton Moy 80. Kavo a free per formance to 8000 orphans a short time urn. "Van," the famous writer on the Los Angolcs Examiner tells the story: a little after 2 o'clock John Carroll the het rlnemaster In the business, stepped through the flaps at the main entrance. He was dressed in nis low cut cont and his patent leather pumps and there was a silk hat on his head He looked like an advertising cut for that superior cigarette used in an clubs and cafes. He had a long whip lu his hand. Carroll looked all around the ring children, children, and children everywhere! The sloping stats were hidden behind a great slop ing bank of eager young faces happy, smiling faces. John Carroll drew a long breath and slapped his trouser leg with the lash of hU whip the wonderful whip that starts things and stops things and makes the trick horses stand around so prettily. "Ain't It bully?" said John Carroll. "Ain't It GREAT? Look at 'em. I'll bet some of 'cm never saw a circus before In their poor little lives! Lots of 'cm, you say? Well, we'll give 'em something they won't forget. ' Never saw a circus before, eh? Poor little kids!" And John went out to give the clowns some special Instructions. "Something to work for today," said he. "I love to clown the Utile kids. If they like you, they don't put a handkerchief over their mouths to hide a smile. They laugh right out. They'll laugh today." And Potter, the great Potter of the Peerless Potters the originallord of the air, the bills call him added his little word. Ho was not dressed In his blue silk tights, for he had been work ing "with the ushers helping to get the youngnters Into their seats Just like any common man. "I hope they wll like my act,' 'he said. "Not because It's the greatest aerial act In the world, but well, be cause kids enjoy a thing so much, and I love the little fellers. I'd rather please these children than all the grown-ups In California." The concert band Interrupted Mr. Potter to play "Old Black Joe." It was a piece that every child seemed to know and every boy whistled the air and every little girl sang the words the biggest orchestra I have ever lis tened to. They cheered the band for playing It. and they chwred still louder when the bandsmen trooped over to the entrance, for that meant that the show was about to begin. Then John Carroll opened the cur tains and called "All right, nobert." The bandmaster raised his baton, and 25 musicians answered with a crash, and curtains were drawn aside and the circus began. I am not going to write all about that cirrus It would take up all th- room in the paper. Just think back to your first circus; you haven't for gotten anything that happened, I'm sure you haven't.

It Is over five years since I procured them at the Pen dleton Drug Co. and was perman ently cured of a severe attack of kid ney trouble which had caused me much suffering. For six months prior to procuring Doan's Kidney Pills I could not bear to be on my feet on account of the bearing down pains through my back and kidneys. , The secretions were also too frequent In action, attended with pain and gave me great annoyance. I was gradual ly growing worse Instead of better, and In spite of many remedies, failed to find relief until Doan's Kidney Pills came to my notice and I pro cured a box. They soon went to the seat of the trouble, I was so encour aged that I continued their use, and a permanent cure was the result know of others who have used Doan's Kidney Pills and have been perman ently cured by them."
