Pougeon.- : Did you ever see a woman j Take a tumble down thc stairs , I Land kcrplunk right at thc bottom , I For a while just sit and stare ? There is not a cross word spoken , 4 Rising to her feet with care ; She will ask thc old , old qucstion- I "Gracious goodness , How's my hair ? " , But there is another picture , That is not so soft and mild ; It's the picture of her husband , Sitting there and looking wild. HC has had a tumble , also , Like his wife he fell down stairs ; But , great goodness , what a difference No , he's not repeating prayers. About his hair he has no treble , Far his thoughts from feminine ; But hc's having lots of trouble ! With thc last joint of his spinc. And hi ; thoughts are far from heavenly , 'ris language not sublime ; . And we wouldn't dare to print it For a hundred $ $ $ $ per linc. SPLENDORS OF THE DUIlBAIl. The Gorgeous New Spectacle Presented By The Ba.rnum and Bailey Show. Splendors attract the eye of all : mankind quite as much today as : in the ancient times Man is vain and admires more his own handiwork than he does the choicest creation of nature. The precious stone .is lustreless till man's cutting and polishing transforms it into a glittering , gem. Every time man places his I foot upon the ground he touches creation more ancient than the ruins of the most remote antiquity but a structure of his own erect- ion , if no more than a single ' century old , halts him and his ; interest is aroused. These things , are true now-they have been so ; for all time. 4 The earliest record of man's 4 thoughts and deeds ! teem with j accounts of his ; displays of riches ; _ n _ _ _ _ . . _ _ - - . - - - --l'-J _ A . . _ . . and power. Traditionalsplendors arc never those of nature , but of man. Some are invested with a glamor antiquity lends. Others of more modern being have been minutely described. With the aid of tradition and history and imagination some fairly adequate idea of ancient splendors may be formed , and then-all pale into insignificance before the glories of the gorgeous Durbar at Delhi. This surpassing spectacle will be teproducecl in simulation as a prelude to the performance given this year in the Barnum & Bailey Greatest Show , on Earth. Preparations for this mimic presentation - sentation were begun immediately - ly after the Durbar took place in January , 1903. It is scareh' necessary to say anything abdut the magnificent manner in which the superb splendors will be presented. The wealth and enterprise of this uniquely great- est establishment in the world is sufficient to supply all the pond- erous paraphernalia , massive material and dazzling detail necessary to make of it the most sublime spectacle of panoramic - , Reavis .ftl Abbey . , A Quiet - Flirtation .
