All who glance over the cable news or who read the magazines must have noted the many contracts entered in to by the Ringling Brothers for for eign talent last winter. A special ship was chartered this spring to bring the hundreds of human per formers, trained animal acts and e quine displays to America. More than a million persons saw the mam moth new curcus of 1922 during the weeks that it exhibited in Madison Square Garden, New York. Now this marvelous exhibition is touring the country aboard five great rail rbad trains. It is a third bigger than the Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey show of last season. It is ten times larger than any other circus now on tour. Big as is this . wonder circus of 1922-with its 'nore than twenty trained wild animal displays in steel arenas, fully 150 wonderfully school ed trick horses, 700 men and women performers, 100 clowns, and scores 5f features-the price of admission Is no more than before. And though he trained animal numbers and the mmense horse show were circuses in -hemselves while touring Europe, they are not offered as separate attrac -ions by the Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey combined shows. [nstead all are on one gigantic pro ram. Everything is in one mam noth main'tent. One ticket admits to ill and includes admission to the tre nendous double menagerie. There ire more than a thousand animals in :he zoo of this circus and these in :lude a tiny baby hippopot4mus only -ecently born, and accompanied by ts three-ton mother. Another re narkable zvological feature is an ar nored rhinocerous, the only one mown to exist and for which the .1inglings recently refused an offer >f $30,000.

Groves, a well-known merchant of Lowell, N. C. "Nervous indigestion had almost completely wrecked my health," said Mr. Groves. For a long time I could not keep down anything I would eat. Often while waiting on a customer I would get so nervous I had to call some. one else, and finally I got so weak I simply had to give up work aitogether. When I did get a little ight food to stay on my stomach it would cause gas, smothering spells nd headache. "I took seven bottles of Tanlac and gained fifteen pounds and have never hiad any troubles 'since. My nerves re as steady as a clock now and I )at anything I want, and my appe -ite never fails me. In fact, I never elt/better in my life than I- do now md it's all because of the good Tan .ac did, me fivie years ago." Tanlac is sold by all good drug ests.-Adevrtisement.
