THE PARKER PORTABLE JUMPING NORSE CARRY-US-ALL THE PARKER PORT.ARLE JUMPINa HORSE CARRT-US-ALL will be the star money- getter with the great majority of carnival organisations during the Heason of 1916. More than 77 per oent. of them used Parker machines ezolusively last year. There are good reasons for thip, which I will be glad to explain. The "Parker" is the only real portable machine. It has imitators but no competitors. Its distinguishing fea^ tures are fully protected by letters patent, and infringers will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. The name "Carry-Us-AU" is now copyrighted. It will be a guarantee of the best obtainable in a riding device. PRICES m FULL PARnCULARS MAILED UPON APPLICAHON C. W. PARKER, Leavenworth.
