"Buster Brown" Cnrr, In Ihe Carr Trio of “Society Entertainers,” Is there wiili the goods. The little fellow hns the hearing of an exper ienced actor, and Ills singing is up to date. With perfect composure "Buster cracked joke after joke and he brought the house down several times by hIR clever work. "Buster" and his mother and father, beyond a doubt, have the leading act this week, Their dancing, singing, and monolo gue work Is above the average. Dave Gaston, the human scare crow, lives up to his name in every way. Ills songs are catchy, and his eccentric dancing Ir something out of the ordinary. And the faces, he makes are the most ludicrous possible. His uct will feature on any bill. Morgan and Chester in their com edy sketch .fames Jeffries and the landlady, proved themselves to he fav orites The act Is very funny and Ihey received rounds of applause. The sketch Is clean In every way, and the sltuullouH are most amusing. The hijougraph, Is presenting the host pictures that can be procured. "Going After Some Ice," was one of the best and funniest pictures that has been seen here for some time. The pictures "Tag Day,” showing lmw the I ramp made his money, was the favorite, and the entire audience was laughing from starl lo finish. AT THE AIR-DOME A musical comedy full of vim, vigor and vitality Is "The Widow Gay.” The plot Is amusing and Interesting and a good insight In the life and object of many people. All of tho characters arc portrayed most excel lently. “The wlhhon counter Jumper,” just from the country, who gets two-slxty nlne per week and pays throe-fifty for board and who receives a “wemlt lanre” from imupnm. is especially good. Barnstornief, with his dramatic utterances keeps life in the play and Is a great source of amusement to the audience. The rich Irishman and the Frenchmen lake their part to per fection. The specialties themselves make a complete vaudeville show. A 1 Hlrlco and Ills trained dog gave a great performance. The Juggling act til which with his feet he operates a "merry go-round" w ith a live cargo Ls especially deserving of praise. The girls are pretty and make a flue showing on the stage. The grand finale is worthy of lots higher class show and never falls to bring forth tremendous applause. As usual the music and pictures arc good, and a good week ls In store for the lHime.

Hysteria sometimes leads to insan ; Ity and should bo treated through feeding the brain and nerves upon I scientifically selected food that re stores the lost delicate gray matter. Droof of the power of the brain food, Grape-Nuts, is remarkably strong. 'About eight years ago when work ing very hard as a court stonograph ler I collapsed physically, then nerv ously, and was taken to the State Hospital for the Insane at Lincoln, Nob . a raving maniac. “They had to keep me in a straight jacket and I was kept In the worst ward for three months. I was Anal ly dismissed In tne following May but did no brain work for years, un til last fall when 1 was persuaded to take' the testimony In two cases. "One of these was a murder case and the strain upon my nervous sys ! ton was so great that I would have I broken down again except for the ! strength 1 had built up by the use of I Grape Nuts When I began to feel the pressure of the work on my brain and nerves 1 simply Increased the amount of Grape-Nuts and used the food more regularly. T now feel like my old self again and am healthy and happy. I am sure that If 1 had known of Grape- Nuts when 1 had my trouble 8 years ago 1 would never have collapsed, and this dark experience in my life would never have happened. The pow er of Grape-Nuts as a brain food is simply wonderful and I do ] not believe any stomach is so weak ■ that it cannot digest this wonderful I food. ' There's a Repson."

Mack's 1 National Monthly for Juna- The Acclimated Piano In buying a piano let tonal quality by all means be an important consideration —but let the chief question be, "Howlong will that tonal quality he maintained?” And this is where thj flQatbusbeh piano particularly excels; for this world-famous piano—40,000 in use —is built to withstand the ravages of the fickle, trying southern climate. One of its unusual advantages is the “bushed” or insulated tun ing pins which keep the tension of the strings uniform regardless of temperature or weather conditions, making frequent tuning unnecessary, and ensuring a permanence of musical quality. Other Mathnshek features are the Improved Muffler, or Soft Stop, and the Sostenuto or Tone-Sustaining Pedal, which is more effective than in other pianos. This splendid Instrument can be bought practically on rental terms. $25 cash ancf balance as little as $lO a month. Old piano taken in part payment. Stvle 20, shown above, is the equal of any S6OO piano of other makes. Its price is $450 on the easy terms just stated. See the Mathushek before buying any piano.
