Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Stephen Watson, uncle of Kit and father of Ralph, was a man of middle age. It was difficult to traceany resemblance between him and his nephew. The latter had an open face, with a bright, attractiveexpression. Mr. Watson was dark and sallow, of spare habit, and there was a cunning look in hiseyes, beneath which a Roman nose jutted out like a promontory. He looked like the incarnation ofcold selfishness, and his real character did not belie his looks.Five years before Kit Watson's father had died. He resembled Kit in appearance, and was verypopular in Smyrna. His brother wound up the estate, and had since been living in luxury, butwhether the property was his or his nephew's Kit was unable to tell. He had asked the questionoccasionally, but his uncle showed a distaste for the subject, and gave evasive replies.What Kit had just heard made him anxious, and he resolved to attack his uncle once more. Afterdinner, therefore, he began: "Uncle Stephen, Ralph tells me I am not going back to school on Monday.""Ralph speaks correctly," Mr. Watson replied in a measured voice."But why am I not to go?""I will explain before the time comes.""Can you not tell me now? I am anxious to know.""You must curb your curiosity. You will know in good time."Kit regarded his uncle in silence. He wished to know what had caused this remarkable change, but itseemed useless to ask any more questions.The next morning he and Dan Clark, according to agreement, met in front of Stoddard's store."I had hard work to get away," said Dan. "Let us go right over to the circus grounds."These were located about a third of a mile from the hotel, in a large twenty-acre pasture. The lot, asit was called, was a scene of activity. A band of canvas men were busily engaged in putting up the bigtent. Several elephants were standing round, and the cages of animals had already been put in placeinside the rising tent

The Young Acrobat of the Great North American Circus: Large Print By Horatio Alger There was great excitement in Smyrna, especially among the boys. Barlow's Great American Circus in its triumphal progress from State to State was close at hand, and immense yellow posters announcing its arrival were liberally displayed on fences and barns, while smaller bills were put up in the post office, the hotel, and the principal stores, and distributed from house to house. It was the largest circus that had ever visited Smyrna. At least a dozen elephants marched with ponderous steps in its preliminary procession, while clowns, acrobats, giants, dwarfs, fat women, cannibals, and hairy savages from Thibet and Madagascar, were among the strange wonders which were to be seen at each performance for the small sum of fifty cents, children half price. For weeks the young people had been looking forward to the advent of this marvelous aggregation of curiosities, and the country papers from farther east had given glowing accounts of the great show, which was emphatically pronounced greater and more gorgeous than in any previous year. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public.

About Author: Horatio Alger, Jr. (January 13, 1832 - July 18, 1899) was an American writer. He wrote magazine stories and poems, a few novels for adults, and 100 plus boys' books. His boys' books were hugely popular.Alger was born in Massachusetts, and attended Harvard College. He became a Unitarian minister, but his career as a clergyman was brief. It ended when his congregation charged him with child molestation. Criminal charges were not placed against him, but his career in the church was finished.He moved to New York City to become a professional writer. In 1868, Alger found his place in the literary world with his fourth boys' book, Ragged Dick. This book is about a poor shoe shine boy in New York City who rises to middle class comfort and security through hard work, honesty, and a little luck. The book was a great success.Alger continued to write boys' books. They were similar to Ragged Dick in theme and other details. Characters such as the poor but honest boy, the snobbish youth, and the greedy lawyer appeared in one book after another. Details changed from book to book, but the essentials remained the same. Boys loved the books.By the 1870s, boys' tastes had changed. They wanted cowboys, hunters, and Indians. Alger headed west to gather material for future books. The trip had little impact on his writing however. He wrote four books set in the west called the "Pacific Series", but they were stuck in Alger's rags-to-riches rut.In the last decades of the 19th century, boys' tastes changed again. They wanted violence, murder, and other sensational themes. Alger gave them what they wanted. Public librarians did not like these books. They wondered whether children should be reading them. They began throwing Alger's books away.Alger passed his last years quietly. He went to the theatre, visited old friends, and kept in touch with the boys he had helped over the years. He based new books on those of his past. He died at his sister's home in South Natick, Massachusetts, in 1899.
