25 Cents Worth of Snowdrift
is Equal to
90 Cents Worth of Butter
Because, Snowdrift is 100 per cent cooking fat, while butter is 18 per cent salt and
water. The price is much less. Try Snowdrift in cake. Use about one-fifth less
than butter.
Snowdrift is a wholesome shortening, adapted to every branch of cooking. Sold
in hermetically sealed, sanitary cans only. Most grocers sell it. If yours does. not,
write our nearest office and we will arrange to have you supplied.

GET FINAL LOOK:
AI BUFFALO BILL]
j Veteran Showman in Richmond
To-Day to Quit Ring for
All Time.
(Jiving absolutely his last public per?
formance In the saddle, Colonel Wllllair
I". Cody, known the world over ;ij
Buffalo Hill, will close lilt: season lit
Klchbiond to-night. ID wlil l" srcit
i twlco to-day. matinees and night, and
then he will quit the rini; for ull time
There will be no ?trect parade.
I?ng before the last tent Is down the
performers will be scattering In all
! directions. A special truln consisting
of eight ears will leave the city early
to-morrow morning for New York, and
then special cars, attached to legul.-u
train.'. Will leuvc for the West. One
car will go through direct to San Fran?
cisco, with the Japanese aboard; others
will take the Indians back to North
Dakota, and others still will take the
cowboys to tile plains again. There
may be Wild Wesi shows hereafter,
but none will have Buffalo Bill at the.
helm.
This Buffalo Bill-Pawnee Ulli a^irro
Kation, uniting the Far West und the
Far Eust, Is truly a remarkable bunch
of men, women, Indians and horses
There will be many pathetic moments
lo-nlght when Colonel Cody says g(?od
by to those who huvc worked and
traveled and performed with him fot
years, but the old man Is ready to quit
und he cannot be induced to extend
his activities over another season.
Kcuily a ills Performance,
ThlB afternoon t'oienel Cody will
assemble his forces, and the perform?
ance given will be an exact counterpart
of that given at Madison Square liar
den for" three weeks, where thousands'
of people were turned away.
The exhibition this year Is a strik?
ing assemblage of the horsemen from
I all purts of the world, and us far as
is possible Indicates the habits ot the
red men and the cowboys of the Wild
j West. In conjunction with Pawnee
Bill, Colonel Cody has included a
i troupe of Ttusslan dancers, Slngaleae, i
Dahomeyians and representatives from
I every clime in tho Far East, which
! makes the program far more lnter.es.t
| ing and entertaining than it has ever
j been before In tho history of the or?
ganization.
Promptly at 3 this afternoon and
again at S this evening, group after
group will gather toward the front,
and the entire arena will be filled with
horsemen. Thoy will gallop out into
the sawdust space in front of the mam?
moth scenic background reprosent'ng
a Western landscape. Colonel Cody,
mounted on his white Arabian horse
and wearing the buckskin coat and
sombrero of long ago, will dash Into
the arena and take his place ut the
head of the aggregation for the last
time. After he has Introduced the
"Congress of the Bough Biders of the
World" the exhibition will commence,
and from then on there will not b?
an idle moment for three hours.
Tho pony express, illustrating how
the mulls were carried In tho early
days, using a relay of horses to speed
across the country, is the first act. An
artillery drill, participated In by vet?
erans of the United States Army. Is
tho next fonturo, followed by a buffalo
hunt. In which Colonel Cody partici?
pates, and Introducing one of the few
herds of buVfalos left In the United
States. With the Mexican troupe
some of the llnest lasso throwers tho
world Has ever known, catching horses
by any of their four teet or even oy
the tall. When U comes to horseman?
ship, there Is nothing that surpasses
or et>en equals the act of Bay Thomp?
son, on Joe Bailey, and Mrs. Thomp?
son, on Irma G., a horse which she
rides without a bridle. Rhoda Royal |
also has a number of high school horses
?in fact, the largest aggregation
known.
From the Far East.
Now comes tho Far <East- In this
part of the exhibition are people gath
erod from all parts ' of the world?
Russian dancers, Siamese fire-enters
Japanese Jugglers .and balancers, Ara?
bian tumblers, Nubians and Bedouins
and Bossi's elephants, with four prot
ty young girls, who make tho hugh
pachyderms go through all sorts of no?
tions, and finally, play brass musical In?
struments, conclude this act of the
program. To sec women turning hand?
springs on the backs of elephants?
?well, you have got to see the show to
realize. Its Importance.
The old Peadwood coach will be pur
sued by Indians and rescued from their
depredations, Devlin's Zouaves, a squad
of mllltlamon who work with maohlnc
llko precision and scale a wall with
lightning rapidity, are ulso a part of
the show.
American, frontiersmen will never
forget the* battle of Summit Springs
That Is the next part of the pro?
gram, and In It Colonel Cody plays
a most Interesting part, ho being the
scout who led General Carr through
ih< battle. In reality, many years ago.
The >;reat musical ride, under the
direction of Johnnie Maker, Including
all the Important nations and the Red
i'i ris's Society, Is ft sight to be remem?
bered.
With the cbwbodj band playing
"A?ld Lang Syne," the entire company
will again gather In the arena for n
final salute, and Colonel Cody, ,10 he
bows from the arena, will say goofl
by forever. It Is the best show the
"Two Bills" have ever produced, and
It will never be hoch here ugaln In
its present completeness.
