LIFE READS LIKE ROMANCE Motherless at Nine and an Orphan at Thirteen, His Grit and Determination Made Him One of Most Famous Plat form Orators In America. Tlie sawdust ring and the flying tra peze are not usually looked upon as preparatory schools for the ministry, but from this peculiar beginning Charles II. Fitzwilliam arose to a place of prominence among big platform celebrities. The story of his life reads like a ro mance. He was left motherless at nine years of age, and his father, who was a professional trapeze performer, at once began training him for the same profession. At twelve years of age young Fitzwilliam was doing the trapeze stunts In the open arena. His education had been utterly neg lected, of course. He knew only the canvas pavilion and the sawdust ring. His acquaintance did not extend be yond the people of the circus, many of them being of the coarsest type. At twelve years of age this poor boy beheld with his own eyes the life crashed oat of his father !n a horrible trapeze accident. This was the real turning point In his career, although it left him without a friend or protector in all the world. POT twelve years more he battled with fate. But be secured work that let him go to school and later to col lege. His grit and determination to rise triumphed over difficulties galore, and he at last found his place in the world. For many years Fitzwilliam has been a recognized force among the big men of the platform. He has crossed the Atlantic sixteen times and is well known on both sides of the sea. He de livers lectures of great power and beauty and full of earnest purpose. His life is a rebuke to failure and an inspiration to all young men of nerve and purpose. WONDERFUL JUGGLER ROSANI IS COMING Follow the crowd the day Rosani, the juggler, comes to Chautauqua this sum mer. The people never tire of seeing things that excite wonder, and Ro sani is the premier wonder worker of them all At this performance one will not be entertainers and he will pass an hour of keen delight at the exhibition of skill. Itosani is not a magician. He em ploys no tricks. His work is genuine and therefore all the more interesting. What he does he does, and that is the marvelous thing about it all. IIow it is possible to perform such feats of skill is what taxes human credulity. '••':t^r^)»vT^^i!''^''^-^, ^r-^w'' fi^""^vhA',,jS,,*_'"'"tv"i^'r"*r v-ft-i** jsy & VA.WTCR SVSTCM ROSANI. Rosani Is an original genius and, while familiar with all the old feats of jugglery common to the stage, has in vented many novel acts of ,his own. The major portion of his performance Is entirely new to the public and will excite keen interest. His shadowgraphs are amusing, his impersonations under a changing hat rim are marvelous, and his balancing acts are the limit of ar tistic accomplishment Rosani will draw a great crowd be cause he furnishes just the sort of di version needed in the midst of a week's program of solid things. You will not aeed to labor in weighty think ing to follow him, but you will cudgel your brains to fathom his great skill. Rosani has entertained thousands throughout the east and is a seasoned veteran of the platform. He will please the people immensely with his clever show and round oat a week of delight* ftil things. A reactionary storm period has its central days, on the 7th, 8th and 9th. At this time the thermometer will rise again to very high temper atures, the barometer will fall and black, threatening storm clouds, with probability of violence, will pass from west to east over the country. Great bluster and threat ening thunder may be looked for, but rains will probably not prove as copious and general as needed. Another break in the temperature will give temporary respite from summer heat about the 9th, 10th and 11th. A regular storm period embraces the 11th, to 16th, central on the 13th. The moon is new and in peri gee on the 12th, and on the celestial equator on the lath. The center of the Venus period is on the 13th, co incident with the center of this Vul can period. The autumnal equinox of the earth is also present at this time. Look for marked fall of the barometer in western part by the 12th, and during the 13th, 14th 15th and 16th, violent storms of rain, wind and thunder, with destructive hail northward, will pass eastwardly across the country. West India storms, hurricanes and tidal waves very probable in the gulf and south coast regiions. An unseasonable change to cooler, with frosts, pos sibly, in the north, will come with the rising barometer behind these storms. A seismic period—one that will be heard from— involves the 9th to 15th, central on the 12th. Watch and see! A reactionary storm period has its central days on the 18th, 19th and I 20th. The growing combination of astronomic causes, shown in the storm diagram, promises renewed and violent disturbance at this time— another time when your barometer will prove your best friend. Anoth er change to cooler will follow dur ing the 20th to 23rd. A regular storm period covers the 23rd to 27th, central on the24th. Moon in apogee on the 25th and full on the 27th. The center of a Mer cury period is on the 25th. Be on the watch for equinoctial storms in the south! Very low barometer will warn of danger at this period, with best indications for general rains. Another seismic period involves the 24th to 30th, centering on the 27th. The general disturbances at this time promise to be aggravated and pro longed into the reactionary storm period, central on the 29th, 30th and 31st. The moon passes over the ce lestial equator on the 29th, near its full. The autumnal equinox of the earth will also bear heavily on the1 period, the Jupiter, the Venus and1 the Mercury periods adding their forces to the strong combination. The barometer should be carefully watched during the last ten days of August, especially in the gulf re gions, and all indications of West India storms should be promptly heeded. August promises to go out with storms, and threatening weath er generally, passing eastwardly over the country. Change to much cooler, and possibly frost northward will attend high barometer at close of the month. ITCHING, FIERY, RAW ECZEMA. Relieved in a few Seconds.

See Harry Marvin. %t*!t'P"- *j rite Hereford Cow, Iowa State Fair August Weather. Here is what Irl R. Hicks, the St. Louis v/eather prophet predicts in the way of weather for the month of August: A regular storm period is central on the 1st, covering July 30th to August 4th. By the 2nd, the baro meter will fall to marked storm conditions in western and central regions, the temperature will rise to great warmth, and storms of lightning, thunder, wind and rains will brteak into very violent gusts and gales in many localities, as the general storm area passes eastwardly across the country. The Venus in fluence will be strong at this time, and vicious electrical storms, with hail in northwestern to northern regions, will be followed by sudden change to unseasonably cool for two or three days. Local cloudbursts will most likely occur, here and there in central to eastern states, but there will be great shortage in widely distributed rains. vii". it t"w -/V'y J^.C' Ut~y" '"'^'•v The Chicago Specialist Will be at Leon Thursday, Aug. 22 (One day only, returning every 28 days.)
