People's Pilot, Volume 6, Number 6, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 30 July 1896 — Sun Bros.’ Circus. [ARTICLE]

Sun Bros.’ Circus.

The time is passed when a manager, by means of flattering promises, gaudy advertisements, and a liberal use of printers ink was able to de'raud and delude the public into the belief that his; and his only, was the “greatest show on earth.” The American people have learifed to shun such humbugs as they would a

poisonous serpent. Sun Brothers do not profess to have the largest show touring the face of the globe; their exhibition does not travei on “four special trains.” neitherare “six rings and elevated stages,” an adjunct to the performance. In place of thesa. Bowever Sun Brothers Progressive Shows preseni to your notice the beet and highest-salaried collection of graceful contortionists, mirth-provok-ing clowns, the largest school of educated horses, ponies, dogs and goats; the most celebrated tumblers and leapers ever placed upon exhibition under a single canvas in either Europe or America. Will visit us Thursday August 9 Rensselaer.
