1890's photograph by Albert W. Huntington, Princeton, Illinois.
Ada was born in Tiskilwa, Illinois, August 11, 1862. She was the daughter of the daughter of William McKay Harsh and his wife, Mary Josephine Bacon. Ada married Robert William Hewitt in 1892. They became the parents of one daughter, Josephine Hewitt (1898-1980). They were living in Troy, Monroe County, Iowa, in 1900, and in Burlington, Iowa thereafter. Ada died in Burlington on August 25, 1937.

British postcard in the Valentine Series. Photo: Lallie Charles (née Charlotte Elizabeth Martin). Possibly this was a publicity still for the stage musical San Toy. Reeve joined the cast of this hit musical in 1901, playing Dudley and later taking over the title role from Marie Tempest.
British stage and film actress Ada Reeve (1874-1966) was much loved on three continents. She was one of the most popular British singing comediennes of all time, and considered to be a headliner in variety and vaudeville. She was endowed with a softness of voice and delicacy of performance that quite set her apart from virtually all of her more raucous contemporaries in the music halls and popularised many memorable songs.

Cabinet-style portrait by Press Illustrators, Washington, D.C. - written on the reverse is: "Ada Byrne / Ada's 2 daughters Bessie / Nannie."
At center here are very likely Ada Virginia Byrne (née Smarr, 1865-1942) and her daughters Bessie Ethyl (later Fridley, dates unknown) and Nannie E. (later McNamara, sometimes given as Mack, 1889-1960).
Given the resemblance, I am guessing that the other women are relatives, possibly her mother (Anne Elizabeth Smarr Bradford, dates unknown) and grandmother.
Born in Fauquier Co., VA, Byrne was married to Charles M. Byrne (1851-1910), a sheet metal worker, and appears to have begun keeping a boarding house after his death. When she died shortly before her 77th birthday, she had been a resident of Washington for 44 years. Byrne was long active in a variety of DC sororal organizations, playing the piano and serving in ceremonial and administrative roles in groups like the Eastern Star, the Pioneer Club and the Women's Benefit Association.
She is buried with her husband, Nannie, and her son Charles Cleveland Burns (1885-1922) in Falls Church, VA's Oakwood Cemetery. Her final DC address was the still standing 24 Logan Circle, NW.

Digging out old photos of Ada again ...
Betelnut girls (Binlang Xi Shi/檳榔西施) are a unique part of Taiwan culture. They sit in brightly-decorated glass booths wearing skimpy outfits, and sell cigarettes, drinks and betelnut to passing drivers. It’s a controversial trade but not actually illegal. The question of whether the girls are exploited is open to debate – certainly their own perception is mostly that they are doing a job like any other, and the less they choose to wear, the more they sell. For more info, see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betel_nut_beauty and follow the links to the video and pictures.
