sentative music critics say so. They say in
the columns of their own papers that the voice
of the singer and its Re-Creation are one and
that the New Edison does literally Re-Creatb
vocal and instrumental music without the
slightest deviation from the original.
The New Edison makes it possible for you
to have in your home the voices of great
singers and the performances of great instru-
mentalists as real as life itself.

Without "soul” music would be void of all
its beauty and life.
“Soul” is found only in original music—
music that flows direct from the lips of the
atnger or springs direct from the strings of the
matter’s violin. Music, as Re-Created by
Austwell saying those places are safe
and suffered damage only from the
high water on the bay front.
Mayor H. C. Inuis said this after-

H would seem as though everybody
in this locality wore planning to at-
tend The very name of the great
new circus - Ringling Brothers and
Barnum Al Bailey Combined -lias uoen
sufficient to arouse far more Interest
than has ever before been shown In
the coming of any amusemtni'. enter-
prise. And word fro ml he Ringling
Brothers, who arc the directors of this
gigantic super-circus, is to the effect
that those who attend the perform-
ances will witness the greatest pro-
gram ever presented in America. Ihti
Is likewise true of the mammoth
street parade, which will positively
take place showday morning, the
mammoth menagerie and all else con-
nected with this biggest of all amuse
mont Institutions. The famous show
men have made a complete survey of
both the great circuses and merged
the finest and best of each into one,
Hundreds upon hundreds of perform-
ers will appear In the gigantic main-
lent. There will be scores upon scores
of the cleverest dumb actors A gor-
geously costumed pageant, of stupen-
dous size, will open the program.
Great companies of characters, repre-
senting the ebst-lovcd stories of fa-
ble and nursery lore, will appear
There will lie splendid and many
groups of beautiful horses in jeweled
trappings. The army of clowns ex-
ceed all past records for fun and
numbers. All contribute to the big-
gest circus In history.
