P. S.—We are now booked solid until December 27th, inclusive, with the exception of four weeks, which we are now booking, and all Carnivals are Free Street Carnivals; the same are held on the principal business streets in the heart of a respective city, and all Carnivals are under the auspices of the local lodge of Elks or the Merchants and Business Men’s Associations. All Carnivals are personally promoted by Mr. J. S. Berger, and the same are Carnivals that are Carnivals, as each and every Carnival is thoroughly advertised within a radius of 100 miles, using nothing but the best of the Donaldson Lithographing Company advertising matter. Besides, we always get the Elks or Merchants and Business Men to run special excursion trains continually at greatly reduced excursion rates, thereby bringing thousands of non-residents to a respective city daily, Each and every city we get beautifully illuminated and decorated, along with parades daily, and we always manage to have lots of enthusiasm in a respective city; in fact, we don’t leave a stone unturned. So you see our Carnivals cannot help but be tremendous successes, which they always are.

Street Fair and Carnival Company
I am now booking for the Fall my two Snake shows, namely, U. N. O., the Snake Eater, and U. N. O. and her Monster Den of West India Pythons. I just received through Mr. Hope, of Philadelphia, six of the largest Python snakes that ever landed in America. Either one of them is a whole show itself. If you dom’t care to have a snake-eating show at your carnival this vear secure this attraction; it gets the money. Will pay cash privilege or work percentage. I always send a deposit of from $10 to $25 when contracts are signed as good faith in coming, and also to have the show as represented. You will do well by having others follow this rule, as there are many disappointments in the Snake show business when it is not properly handled. Reference, any showman in the business, or any street fair or carnival where I have shown. Have all open time so far; would do business with thoroughly organized Midway Company if territory suits me, with either show or both.
