NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, JULY 16, 1914, Page of News for Theater Goers and CAPE IS TO BE THE PREVAILING CUT OF FASHIONABLE FURS THIS WINTER Fur Coats Are to Be Three-quarter Length and Are to Fall in Folds From Shoulders and Have Full Ruffled Buttons. e Although it is a long cry to snow and winter, furriers have devised the mew fur fashions, and in so doing they have taken the cape, which is ragher ubiquitous in Its -popularity, and transformed its cloth into fur. The cape is to be the prevailing cut of the fashion furs of the winter, if the early models are a reliable fore- cast, < Fur Capes for Winter. Already certain of the Paris shops ~are showing fur capes, which are long and voluminous in the back, and short and scant in front, as well as thg little shoulder capes that were in vogue in the middle of last cen- tury. < Fur coats this vear are to be of three-quarter length, and, in marked contrast to last year's draped fulness and tight banded bottom, are to fall in folds from the shoulders and have full ruffled bottoms. Another novel angement is the fur coat that is ed a trifie below the waistline. %\ Muskrat Prevailing Fur. The fur prevailing in capes and scarfs will be the muskrat, more com- monly known as Hudson Bay seal. When dyed to its rich deep black, it falls in heavy folds. The natural musk, which is dark gray in color &nd has a fairly long nap, combines exyrellently with the seal when: used as collars or cuffs. The sleeveless cape of ,seal with the natural musk collar,- ‘although long in back, affords the further pro- tection in front given by the short cape effect of the black seal. . iAnother model shows a cape of great beauty which in the back falls “below the knees in full rich folds of ‘sdble, and curving up to the waist- line forms a little eton in front. It is cut low and falls back in a deep rolling hood of ermine. Capes and Capes. . A little less striking was a seal cape which closed at the neck and fell loosely, reaching several inches be- ow the waist in front, sloping about it inches further down in the r 'his cape had a wide collar of skunk. The deep rolling collar and the hood, when made of soft, short- haired fur, such as ermme and chin- £hilla, will be very popular. " Many capes leave the arm entirely fincovered to the elbow. Others, %vhen a little longer In front, have openings through which the hands ‘may be thrust, and in one cape -of mink mysterious sleeves appeared, giving it an air of gracé and ease that was very attractive, Fur Wraps in Straight FoMs. It is in respect of ease that :the wraps of this season will be found to differ moste from those of last,' for without any of the restrictive drap- ¥ ings that made last year’s wraps So cumbersome. They will fall straight from the shoulders, widening to a flare at the bottom.

De- signers have succeeded in infusing grace in the outlines of their wraps by reverting to a greater simplicity, to which fur is better adapted. A splendid coat is one of the “Bal- macaan” type, which is very effective in.seal. An odd little seal coat has two backs, both fairly loose, and one coming just a bit below . the ° other. This, you see, has a suggestion of the cape about it, but has ‘the greater warmth and comfort found in a coat. Ruffle Omnipresent. The ruffle is omnipresent at the bottom of the coats, some of them being mere ripples which: vary the straight line of the garment, and others so wide that they seem to bark back to the skirt-coat period. A beautiful coat of leopard skin had a ruffle which reached a high point front and back and fell in cascades to the hips. Most coats button far up, and are topped by delightful big fur.collars | that can be turned over the éars. We have not yet reached the short| jacket period which 'so- many pes- simists have predicted for us, but neither must we wear the full-length mantles that in former years bowed down feminine shoulders with their awful weight. Belted Coats Appeal to Many. The' belted coat is a novelty which ‘may appeal to the woman who has envied the man his side pockets. But on the fur coats the belt per- forms the purpose of a muff as well as pockets. The belt of a moire baby- lamb coat was fastened at the back, tcpping the ruffle, and closed in front by means of large fur buttons.. An individual. feature - in- a splendid caracul coat was the deep ruffle which sioped up and narrowed to the front, where it became metamorphosed into a belt. Do you remember the queer little shoulder capes that were worn: in 18850-1860? They are to add a touch of quaintness to next winter's. cos- tumes. Some will ‘fit tightly about the shoulders and others will hang lcosely in -uneven lengths, generally slcping to the .back, as the big capes and coats do. Modified 1860 Shoulder Cape. The cape is often modified into a wide scarf, which drapés softly over the shoulders and fastens ‘in ‘twg ro- settes in the front., A iscarf of Fitch shows what good effects may be preduced by this style, particularly when made of the soft, short haired furs. Popular, too, will be the old flat, | long scarfs, but more in-yogue are the |. shorter neckpfeces, of fisher and other These are to be uch rounder. than those of last ason. d 4 1 Sealskin Most Popular for Coats. The various foxskins. with their long, silky hair, will be most used in these muffs, which will show the full ‘beauty of the blue fox, the silver, the cross, and others. For coats and capes seal will be the most popular medium. NEW FRICTION MEANS CLEAN HANDS AND A SWEET TEMPER EACH , PATTERN . CAN BE USED No. 203 patterns.

MAGIC, MIRTH AND MYSTERY AT FOX'S The “Brass Bottle,” four acts of "magic, mirta and mystery will hold the board as the feature attraction on today’s motion picture program at Fox’s theater. For a certain offense Fakrash-El-Aamash, a Jinnee of the Curacul lends itself admirably to the ruffle effects, and coats requiring soft, thin furs. Fur combinations are much used, seal coats having large skunk collars, sable coats being trimmed with er- mine, and many other combinatfons have been devised by the ingenuity of the makers.

Three thousand years later the bottle is drawn up in a net by some fishermen on the south coast of England. Horace Ventimore, « struggling architect, is in love with Sylvia, the daughter of a professor who is a keen collector of curios. The professor sends Ventimore to a sale of antiques to bid for certain lots. Ventimore fails to secure them, but on his own account purchases an old brass bottle, in the hope that it may interest the professor. The pro- fessor rejects the bottle with scorn and Ventimore takes it to his office and opens it with alarming result. The Jinnee emerges from the bottle and in gratitude promises him all that his heart may desire. He gets Vent- imore into all kinds of escapades to the enjoyment of all concerned and finally in self-preservation he is com- peiled to get,rid of the Jinnee. There are an abundance of laughs and side- lspmung situations through the entire four reels entertaining in the extreme treme. The balance of the varied gram is made up of ‘“‘Across the At- lantic” a sensational three-reel Uni- versa] feature featuring King Bax- got and “Love, Roses and Trousers,” a rip-roaring joker comedy, rounding out two hours of excellent and di- versified entertainment. Tomorrow is double feature day Wwhen the ninth episode of “The Perils of Pauline” in two reels, and “The Triumph of an Emperor” in five reels will ‘be shown. “The Triumph of an Emperor, better known as “By This Sign You Shall Conquer,” is an his- torical version in filve parts depict- ing the struggles and persecution of the Christian martyrs during the year of 318. FINE OFFERING IN i KEENEY'S BIG BH.L The summer crowds are increasing daily at Keeney's theater due to the fact of the fine offering presented for approval this week. The manage- ment has spared no expense to have a fine show, and judging from the ap- plause the actors are receiving this week it is the best ever. The Three Anderson Girls are mak- ing a strong bid for first place among applause getters. These popular young ladies have all been to Kee- ney’s before, and the last time they were here Manager McMahon at once signed them up for a return engage- ment. The dancing in the act is somewhat different, which proves to be a pleasing feature. The Human Violin introduces a truly nouvelle act. Wallace Mackey gives a vocal selection resembling so closely the playing of a violin that the entire audience is deceived. Mr. Mackey also impersonates an evening at a grand opera in New York. First he mimics every instrument in the orchestra, then the voices of the sing- | ers and last, but not least, the or- chestra and the voices together. Harry Fisher Ward and company, sensational slap stick artists, never fail to win applause whenever they appear. Mr. Ward rides a bicycle | down the main aisle of the theater after a spectacular five foot leap over the footlights. Another one of Mr. Ward's thrilling tricks is to mount a thirty foot stair case on a mono- cycle. There are forty steps which are mounted step by step. The trip down is made in two jumps. German acrobatic stunts are intro- duced by the Four Famous Richards. The male members of the team have head balancing stunts that are very seldom seen in New Britain. The mat tricks are also of the first class order, both as novelties and amusers. Last on the bill is the comedy character sketch of Merrill and Kay. the two wonders of vaudeville. This Pair make a specialty of producing the latest clogg dances and songs. The line of talk used makes the act one of the most pleasing ones secured this NO PENCIL TRACING--NO HOT These patterns hot irons, with the use of carbon paper.

She left with her children and told friends that she never expected to set foot on Mexican soil again if she reached a foreign land in safety and was accompanied or followed by her husband. She had borne up bravely under the trials of the last vear. The party included Senora Huerta and her children, Colonel Luis Fuentes, the president’s son-in-law, and his wife; the family of General Blanquet, the minister of war; the family of General Liberio Fuentes, father of Colonel Fuentes; Eugenio Paredes, treasurer general of the republié; the Aguila family, who are relatives of Senora Huerta, and several close friends. Ahead of the special train went two military trains, carrying 800 men, while another troop train fol- lowed. Miss Ryan has just a few black and colored satin, crepe de chine, taf- fetas and pussy willow taffetas after- noon gowns left which she is offering today at her shop, 79 Pratt street, Hartford, at half price and even less, They are very handsome gowns that have been from $70 down to $20, =mo you see now they begin at least as low as $10.

Her husband looked at her in astonishment. “Dislike him?" he echoed, “I should never have guessed it. I thought you were putting yourself out to be nice to him.” “I was,” his wife admitted. “And yet I dislike him. He is cynical, he thinks all women are fools, he has a disagreeable manner, and very seldom condescends to be even as gracious as he was tonight. And yet I alwaya find myself making more of an effort tp please him than I do for the people I like. Isn't it queer?” Queer, yes, but only as life and human nature are gueer. There are people like that in every neighborhood. Nobody really likes them, yet everybody tries to please them. Perhaps it is because they are so difficult to please that we feel a sort of triumph in accomplishing the feat. The difficulty is a challenge and a spur. Or perhaps it is because they are so disagreeable that we are afraid of them. Easy going, easily pleased people never do seem to get as good tremt- ment as the people who know how to make themselves disagreeable 1if they are not pleased. The butcher does riot keep his best cuts for the most agreeable an@ accommodating customer. On the contrary. He unloads the tough resst, the thin steak, the skimpy chop on him: and keeps the tender, toothsome meat -for'the irritable, quick-tempered customer who will raise the reof if he doesn’t get just what he wants. Two ‘women employ the =ame taken an . especial interest in the woman; she has often paid her in'advance; she has waited patiently for her clothes when it meant a great deal of inconvenience to her. The woman has been just an ordinary-employer. When the clothes have beea late she has spoken with considerable impatience and threatened to take her work elsewhere. It is not hara to guess which employer the wasm- erwoman favors when she is delayed with her work for any feason. { Really, when one sees -how goed temper and complacence are penalized all along the line, and aow unamiability is rewarded, one wonders— No, of course, 1 don’t really mean it, Of course it is moral treason even to think that, so 1 will fimish my sentence another way.
