THE PHILIPPINES CARNIVAL.
Who has not heard of the Carnival By that is meant The Carnival-in othor words, the Philippines Carnival, which is held every year in Maulla, which during the-sight days of its duration is a stream of light, a blaze of glory, where pleasure runs riot and theatrests are filled with a rollicking, good-natured and fan-loving populace, which has cast care to the winds and settled down to enjoy to the fullest extent the great fiests of the Philippines.
there, too,
Certainly no ono in the Philippines, до matter where he might be, from Zamboanga to Aparri, has failed to hear of the big flesta. And all along the China coast,
are those who have revelo in the delights of the Carnival, for hand reds of them hare taken advantage of an oppor- tunity to see the biggest show over held in any part of the Orient, sud one of the biggest in the world.
The Carnival has had visitors from almost every part of the globe, and its fame has gone forth, spreading year by your. And each year more people come from foreign countries to the Pearl of the Ortent which dous its gala dress every Fahrmary and holds within its portals a veritable treasure house of things wonderful, laughable, interesting and instructive.
There is hardly anything else like it in the world. No community has ever combined in such happy union the many and variel festaros which ono may see and enjoy at the Philippines Carnival.
The firat Carnival was held in 1903; big as it was, it was surpassed in grandeur by the next, And year by year it grows until it is admit elly only a question of time until Manila will become the Mecca for those seeking pleasure and instrac- tion in the Orient,
From the frat the Carnival was a notable success. The first was a big show the fame of which quickly spread. One of the big features of the first Carnival was the hippodrome perfor- mance, long to be remembered by those who were fortunate enough to smo it. Combining as It did acts by representatives of all nations, quaint national dances, wire and trapeze perfor mers, wild west, daring feats of horsemanship, and a myriad of other attractions, including splendid exhibition drill and manoeuvres by the Army, all together in one show.
All who saw it pronounced it superior to any large circus they had ever seen. Owing to con- ditions peonliar to the time, it was said, and it is donkfless true, that in no other place "could such a stupendous show have been given,
At the time the first Carnival was given it was not the intention to repeat it, but it was such a signal success that it was then and thore decided to make the Philippines Carnival a per- manent fixture, and to give it every your... -
When King Carnival is upon the throne, all Manila does homage to him, and the city is as much bis as are the domains of the Czar. He is monarch of all he surveys Throughout the evening hours thousands of his subjects, maskod, way and reveling, throng the streets and Carnival City, the home of His Majesty, King Carnival.
The second Carnival was another pronounced succes, and as the fame of the former Carnival had spread, there were thousands of people from foreign countries present in the city to enjoy the big show.

The hippodrome featurs next year will include the greatest circus sver shown in the Orient, not excepting that featureofthe first Carnival. There will be in the circus proper 50 horses with 50 riders, male and female, 40 olowns, 38 acrobats, and woman obariots and other hippodrome events.
Peanuts, rai lemonade, etc., will be sold on the Buntoke, the local version of the Midway Plaisance, where one may see "El Hombre Primitivo, freaks, side shows, theatres, and all of the usual smuromonte, besides some brand new oneer
The costumed balls of the Carnival ero the most famous ever given in the Oxisnt. They will be given on altorato nights, on the huge platform upon which 2,000 couples. may dance comfortably. Prizes will be offered for costumes and make-ups.

"It is near to Christmas," said his father benignly, "and I purpose a visit to the shops. Doubtless you wish to give your little sister some trifling gift."

Why frown, father said the Obervant One.
