Whenever the circus is at hand the
press agent comes along and com
mences to tell the editor of the paper
all about the number of clowns his at
traction carries, ami singular to re
late, this lias never varied apparently
nice the very hrst time that a turned
organization took the road.
'rorty clowns, count em, lorty,
says this gentleman, and so runs the
burden of his song, but until the Sello-
Moto Circus came alomr nobodv ever
ever really saw forty clowns inside
ol the "big top.
Now comes at last the unfulfilled
promise of years. The really, truly
forty clowns are about to invade our
beloved city, and the press agent oi
the Sells-Floto Circus swears by the
great horn spoon, and by his reputa
tioir as the official "almighty voice"
of the big consolidated show, that the
famous forty will appear at every per
formancc, March 28.
