' It is especially so in the treatment of infants and chil dren, cleansing, soothing and healing tho most distressing of Infantile hu mours, and preserving, purifying and beautifying tho skin, scalp and hair. - Cutlcura Ointment possesses, at the same time, the charm of satisfying the simple wants of the toilet, In caring for . the skin, sculp, hair and hands from In fancy to age, far more effectually, agreeably anil economically than the 'most exponsive of toilet emollients.

Soon a spectacle stupendous will engage the greedy eye Horses round the rings careering, acro bats who almost fly; Toadies of surpassing beauty, creatures fairylike and gay. Riding recklessly a-tiptoe, clad in glitter ing array, While the classy booted person with the tightly curled mustache Urges on the bounding coursers With the cracking of hla lash, And above trapeze performers swing like monkoya upside down All these wonders may be witnessed when v - the circus comes to town. . lea, the children must bo humored, and of course they'll have togoi It would be hard to deny them; ones we, too, were young, you know. We of course have long outgrown our ar dent pleasure In such -sights: Don't enjoy these boneless wonders Boulrmlng in their spangled tights. But some one must really take them, oth erwise there' d be a fuss.
