Even the most. practical blue serge walking costumes show the tunic. With the cloth trotteur costume the perfect collar is of fine muslin, or transparent cambric. The Mttle pleated' frills of muslin that fall down the backs ‘of some blouses are very quaint and attractive. A severe, or, at least, a simple hat should always be chosen to wear with ushr-nude costumes. CASTORIA _ For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought Bears the Page of News for Theater Goers and Women Readers of Theatrical Bills PLENTY OF GOOD FUN AT LYCEUM THIS WEEK “Mam’selle,” the comedy novelty, which' has made such & tremendous hit at the Lyceum this week, is at- tracting large crowds. The popu- larity of the attraction lies, in a 'large measure, in the vaudeville sketches by the members of the company. Mr. Locke is adding new laurels to an already well earned reputation in his presentation of a comedy sketch, in- cluding some soft shoe dancing. The attraction is ltked because it is so different from anything yet offered by the management. There will be a matinee performance Thursday anar- noon. For the closing week of the season Manager Bifch has selected an es- pecially strong bill. It will be “The Belle of Richmond. In this week’s bill Miss Hutchins, the new leading lady, is winning a host of friends among the theatergoers of New Brit- ain. The next attraction is an ex- ceptionally congenial one for an ac- tress of her talents. Miss Hutchins will assume the role of the Beautiful and of most pleasing per- sonality, the bélle of Richmond be- comes the center 'round whom a powerful melodramatic plot is writ- ten. Ardent lovers pay her devoted attention. There are plots and in- trigues constructed round the love story and it goes to make up.,a most entertaining play. PLENTY OF MUSIC ON KEENEY PROGRAM | Vaudeville and moving picture lovers who attended any of the per- formances at Keeney's yesterday epoke in an appreciative vein of the atmospheric conditions in the theater, Wwhich the ventilating’ plant now in operation has improved so to such a remarkable degree. It was cooler in the theater than outside and the audi- ence had the appearance of being as comfortable as could be. The mer- cury in the thermometer at the én- trance registered sixty degrees all day. The theater 1s kept free from impure air by the huge suction fans near the roof and the temperature is kept uni- form at all times. ‘The temperature is not the cnly thing about the popular playhouse which has appealing featires. There is a good vaudeville show. up-to-the-min- ute in every particular, Music is the chief characteristic of the program, practically every num- bLeér having either vocal or instrumen- tal selections for features. In theact of Sims and his eight honeysuckles, ccontown melodies - and the latest “rags” are featured. The people in this troupe are good singers and dancers and they give an entertain- ment that is pleasing in every respect. Mond and Salle offer a novel “girl” act. They are a pair of clever female impersonators and until the climax of their act they carry out the decep- tion with ease. Besides making up Bkillfully as girls, the young men through their peculiar vaiges are able to fool the audiénce with their sing- ing and their sex is not suspected un- til they remove their wigs at the close. Lambert and Perry, juvenile com- edians, entertain pleasingly. The Edwards does some novel shadow- graphing and Tinsman and Tinsman, comedy acrobats provide plenty of fun while they “bump the bmps.” FREE DANCING AND FREE MUSIC AT FOX'S In an interview after his dancing exhibition at Fox's theater on Mon- day evening, Mr Brennan said thau he understood that New Britain con- tained some of the best dancers of | New England, but they must be out of town; and he laughingly remarked how brave a person could be, and tell what they could do and When tne op- portune moment arrived that they would need a couple of gallons of nerve tonic to make them thinK that Tutfimu‘,’r MILLINERY COMPANY New Britain and vicinity for ° their pa- ’ndwmlorm them that they have removed to ivenient quarters.

Fancy night- gowns,- pretty enough to answer for negligees, are of soft silk, crepe de chine or wash ‘taffeta. They are trimmed with real Valenciennes and narrow filet or ‘with effective imi- tations of these same laces. Gener- ous bows of wash ribbon should be used as a finishing touch. Petticoats, too, make charming gifts; and, as they require only a bit of material, they can, with a little ingenuity and the use of fine. laces | and ribbons, be evolved into dreams of loveliness. Bed Jackets Fascinating, Matinees or bed jackets of sheer handkerchief linen, embroidered ba- tiste or crépe de chine combined with pleatings of creamy lace, are fasci- nating. The possibilities of boudoir ¢aps and breakfast bonnets are limit- less. An original girl can make dainty materials into creations quite unlike anything the most exclusive shops have shown.

Stiff ribbon -should never be used, but knots or bows shoula nestle among the lates. Gifts Include Corset Bags. Nightgown cases, slipper bags, cor- set bags and boudoir pillows come under the list of dainty hand-made gifts suiltable for the bride. Sheer linen, fine batiste or the popular ore gandie, if used with motits of real filet or Venetian lace, lined with pdle silk and finished with a cluster of the ribbon flowers, make the loveliest of temembrances. Giving things in pairs or sets is quite the thing. Satin or taffeta slip- pers, combined with garters and cap, make a charming trio, or garters of pleated lace and flat flower clusters to send with mule sandals of plain ma- terial, finished around the top with a pleated frill of lace. Another idea that appeals to a bride —no matter how many she may have already—is embodied in a set of coat hangers, four or six slipper trees and a chintz covered hat box, large and round, for the guest room closet. Guest Room Presents Acceptable. Dainty cross stitched markers foi the piles of linen that will assuredly grace the bride’s linen closet, dresser covers or toilet table covers of fine linen, monogrammed and ornament- ed with inserted lace motifs, will al- so make attractive gifts.

The management of the Fox theater is trving to introduce free dancing dm 10:30 until as long as you ‘to dance. Mr. Fox has placed an orchestra which is second to none, a fleoor which is large jou, and given it over to the people of New Britain to dance upon. He would like to know where in the eity you will be able to get anothér opportunity like this. The management has arranged that on Friday afternoon Brennan and La France will give a special tango matinee for the ladies &nd instruc- tions free. Now, girls, here's your chance. No advance in prices. Household Notes TR ey Sofled dancing slippers of light color can be successfully dyed in ink. Either blue or black ink produces a prétty art blue shade. Ink must be fresh and applied with a small pad of cotton wool. One application is suffi- clent, ” Remember when sewing on @rk material by artificial light to wear a light.colored apron, and spread a white cloth on the sewipg table. These things will increase the light to an appreciable extent, and the strain on the eyes will not be so great. Shoulder of pork is delicious wheng stuffed. Buy a nice fresh shoulder: have the butcher bone it, then stuff. it. Sew it up tight, roll it in a cloth and botl it two hours. Then remove the cloth from it, put it in an iron baking pan and bake it two hours. The best finish for the ' kitchen | floor is usually decided by the condi- tion of the floor. Where it is old and seamed, cover it with rag carpet with a good sized pilece of oilcloth under the stove and in front of the sink. If it is a good smooth floor, put lino- leum on it. An ofléd or painted floor is not advisable unless there are ser- vants to scrub it every day. If your family numbers five or six meat-loving members you will find economy in purchasing a forequarter of spring lamb. It will cost you about $2.50, and you get chops for one meal, a shoulder u,rout or boil, a neck for, stewing and' trimmings ehough to make a good pot of soup.
