Read what the Key West Citizen has to say about this great attrac- tion: One of the most interesting at- tractions ever shown in the city is now at the carnival grounds.

It is an awe-inspiring sight, to sit and watch the hulk of the one-time pride of the navy, coming to view from the depth of the harbor, a bat- tered, torn and twisted mass of metal, Fourteen years ago a stately and magnificent monarch of the oceans; teday, a shattered wreck; the tomb of over three hundred of Uncle Sam's brave sailor boys sent into eternity in the twinkling of an eye. The pictures are shown by special permission of the United States gov- ernment, and in their entirety form one of the most instructive, enter- taining and educational exhibitions ever presented to an audience.

In watches as in most every line of manufactured goods, there are two classes—the dependable and the other class. We sell watches that we can honestly recommend—watches that will give satisfaction. A sun-dial was the old way of telling the time; it worked fine wheu the sun shone, but left people guessing on cloudy days. Just as well buy sun-dials as some of the cheap imitation watches that are offered for sale. one you can depend upon—one you will be proud of. i As watch specialists we advise the purchase o fa good, reliable watch, A Pleasure to Show Goods Watch and clock repairing, that's where we shine. If you have a watch that fails to give you correct time, bring it to us. We cater to jobs that others have failed to make run. G. N.

Garrett, of Huntington, “BUSTER BROWN.” The production of Buster Brown, which comes to the Herron Theater on Monday February 26, will be to the majority of the audience like the reading of a well-read poet for the first time. In the poetical work yon find odd phrases which you have of- ten used and heard used, but whose origin you never knew before. You also hear music that you have heard whistled on the street, and played at parties, moving picture shows, and Coney Island, but whose parentage was a mystery. Several such songs are, “Smile Awhile,” “They are Al- ways Pecking,” “Hula Hula.” “Buster Brown" contains all the clements that are implied in the words ‘“musical comedy.” Pretty melodies, beautiful costumes, lovely and picturesque scenery, brilliant and dazzling electric effects. In fact, one might say, “We are going back to the days of La Paupee.” The simi- larity is manifested by the angelic in- nocence of Little Buster and his play- mate, Mary Jane. There is never a dull minute from curtain rise to curtain fall, but one continuing spasm of fun, laughter and jollyfulness, LOT AWARD.
