FAMOUS SHOW WILL GIVE A BIG PARADE Every day when the members of the famous Walter L. Main Shows finish, breakfast they begin active prepara-' tions for the parade. Well fed ponies and horses in shining harness and waving plumes take their places be fore glittering parade chariots; the sound of music is heard from bands perched hazardously high; clowns, charioteers, jockeys, oßman Hippo drome riders, camels from the great desert with native riders, and ponder our elephants, some bearing a weight of feminine beauty in Oriental cos tume, make appearance in a pictur esque kaleidoscopic pageant more than a mile long. A man on horseback in a deep voice cries the oft-repeated warning: "Look out for your horses: the elephants are coming." Behind him a bevy of pretty women, buglers trumpet their clarion voiced instruments, and then Jeanne d'Axc, in polished armor with clank inb curtains of chain mail ;the flush of tan has tinted her ears and cheeks. She is a young woman, adopted by a wealthy aunt in New Haven, Conn'., who sent her to Europe to keep her from entering circus life. Her sudden return and her romantic marriage to a down caused daily papers all over the country to devote considerable space to the incident. Through densely crowded streets the pageant measures its gaudy passage. Cage after cage and wagon 4fter wag on, filled with rare and costly animals pass in a fantastic panorama. The calliope shrieks madly, and behind it half a hundred boys, playing "hookey" from school, trail tirelessly. The Wal ter L. Main Shows will come to Wil liamston Saturday, September 26, for performances at 2 and 8 p. m. The dcor opening an hour earlier. The parade is at noon.—Press agent.

They know when their tobacco is started and dropped back that the man running the sale knows nothing about tobacco and is no help to the farmer. Bring your tobacco on to the Farmers Warehouse, that always stands by their judgment When a pile is started in the Farmers Warehouse it is sold. We are not crawfishing . we have both good judgment and money, the essentials for high prices. * ■ People who have sold on larger markets and who have sold with us tell us that we are much higher than the larger markets. Bring your next load to the Farmers Warehouse, where old Jule pulls and Rice pushes every pile of tobacco. The fancy grades are showing an upward tendency this week.
