Some years ago I determined to make an improvement in this old time form of amusement and by diligent study, backed by skill, patience and determination, I introduced the "Flea Circus."  I acquired my skill and patience by building models of ships through necks of bottles and making small trinkets during my spare time.

Being a lover of nature I have studied the biology of fleas and other insects and am in a position to answer any question that the study may bring forth.

Among animals, each kind brings forth its own species, more or less.  They prove themselves as to knowledge and endurance much after their host.  It is often asked, "are fleas not carriers of disease?"  I am here to state that all fleas carry germ life which surround them, this being the purpose for which they have been created, for they inoculate man and beast with the surrounding germ every time they feed upon their host.

This, however, is nothing more than a mild form of vaccination, so that if a large quantity of surrounding germs should enter any host that the flea has inoculated the blood germs would be exercised to ward off invasion.
