The Evening Telegram Published .. ry aiternovi irom the 3 The Daytona correspondent of Kentucky Building, Lakeland, Fla. i The Times-Union has the following ! to say of the Man on the Box: “The theater seasen opened at the Il)a)‘lonfl last night with Bert Leigh in The Man on the Box, a charming love story, which was thoroughly enjoyed by the represeniative au- dience that greeted the players. The cast was all that could have been expected. The nervy young Robert \Warburton (Bert Leigh) won out on the tactics of “all is fair in love and war’ in his unusual method of courtship of the beautiful Miss Bettie Ainsley (Miss Billy Long.) There were several bril- liant climaxes that brought the house down. The general verdict of the dispersing audience was, “the com- pany put up a nne show.” Application Pending for Admission as mail matter of the second-class. e e m— M. F. HETHERINGTON, EDITOR. A. J.

A pink satin dress embroidered with little diamonds and other prec- fous stones, costing $60,000, will be worn by Anna Held when she appears at one of the Atlanta theaters this week. The talented actress will wear pink stockings to match also studded with little diamonds., All told there are three thousand little sparkling diamonds in the costume. While it is true “that all is not gold that glitters,” it is true that the dia- mends in Miss Held's costume are genuine, The Ocala Star declares that fried steak breaks up more happy homes than booze. How about wifey's bis- cuits? Many a time has the ship of domestic happiness gone down be- cause of the weight of the *‘sinkers.” XIS The Holmes County Advertiser has found out what makes prices so high.
