Jim was passing the statue in Market Square when.a girl who had just come down Market Street with a basket on her arm stopped short not a yard away and said “Oh!” ina tone of go much surprise that his at- tention was arrested. A moment before, he had not known that there wae a girl there, -but when she said.“Oh!” he saw Min ‘Williams staring at him and recog- nized her at once, She had on a blue serge coat and skirt and a very neat ttle dark blue hat which brought out the gold of her hair and the blue of her eyes. She said “Oh!” again? and her cheeks turned bright pink. It was an embarrassing encounter. There ‘was nothing for it but to make it as" ordinary as possible.

She was brightly flushed. The effort to speak had brought tears into her eyes. Jim was rather touched, “T don’t think so, Min.” “I'm not one to interfere—but she’s very unhappy.” : “Nesta?” She nodded. “I don’t think it’s on my account.” She nodded again, blinking away a tear. “What makes you think s0?” he Min’s eyes reproached him. “You've mot been married a month.” ile: not admitting I’m married at She backed away from him, “You haven't remembered?” “ET haven't remembered marrying Nesta.” “Don’t you want to remember?” He gave & short laugh. “Not that!” F . “Ite dreadful for her,” she said , in. soft, distressed way. “I'm so sorry for Nests I don't know what to do.” “What makes you think she minds, Min?” “She's so cross,” said Min in- Riddell.

Hardgrave is this week opening at the corner of Margaret and Fleming streets “The Electric Kitchen” which he has recently had installed with the latest elec- trical restaurant equipment and fixtures. Mr. Hardgrave is a native of Clarksville, Arkansas, and first came to Key West for a visit in 1906. He was much impressed with this city and stayed for al- most a year, leaving here for Cen- tral America where he remained Nia his return here some time ago. As chef for the Electric Kitchen, Mr. Hardgrave has chosen a well known Key Wester, Frank Lones, who has had considerable ex- perience in the restaurant business. The building which the Electric Kitchen. will occupy has been completely renovated and painted and for years was occupied by Baker’s Restaurant. The entire wooden floor of the building has been razed and replaced by a con- crete floor. The inside of the structure has been arranged so that the patrons may see the food prpared and cook- ed. A feature of the kitchen is the heat canopy which draws all excess heat and odors from the building and sends in a_ steady supply of fresh air at all times. In all, Mr. Hardgrave believes that he is giving this city one of the most modern eating places to be found anywhere in the state. MRS. C. AGUERO IS OPERATED ON Mrs. Charles Aguero, of Key West, underwent an operation yes- terday in Jackson Memorial hos- pital in Miami, for hypertrophy of the thyroid gland, or goiter. Mr, Aguero received a telegram shortly after the operation advis- ing of its success. .Today he is in receipt of advices that Mr. Aguero has recovered from the effects of the anesthetic and is doing nicely.
