[Have you been presented to kitten’s r? It is a cloth with a wavy fin- , seemingly akin to zibeline, and inating because it makes up into ernoon costumes of individuality. his is why so many intermittently onomical women who had virtu- hsly decided not to get an autumn ernoon costume have suddenly nged their mind on that subject. hey have been introduced to Kit- 's ear. u Coat Over Close Fitting Skirt.

Far over the hips tends this vest, but the waist line indicated by a crossing black satin bbon joining the fronts of the coat ha run through long slits an inch ck from its edges. The drooping hds of this broad ribbon are the ble trimmings on this silver gray bat, which, rippling generously ‘be- veen knees and waist, is slender and ooth fitting above that line and early suggests the modes of the puises.

Many Seamed Basque A late importation in peau de souris is a dark, dull wine costume, whose skirt is rippled slightly at the sides because it is a’ little bit drawn back—not drawn up, for about it is no suggestion of draping. It simply is not plain. Nor is it gored. The coat, whose seams are cut to follow the curves of the figure, is slightly gathered at the back under a wide belt, which stops at seams starting almost under the arms, but slanting outward at the waist. Where the elbows would naturally touch the sides of the coat the detached belt | renews its course and crosses in front, sloping sharply away from the waist line. The sleeves are a trifle wider than are those of the gray cos- tume’s coat, and instead of turning | back into broad cuffs the fulness is gathered to the outer side of the arms and caught under a row of self-covered buttons. Double Fluted Frill a Revival. Tricotine in cedar green is excep- tionally satiny of surface, as seen in a fetching afternoon gown. At a glance one realizes that its basque is rich in seams. A pair of seams start scarcely two inches apart under each arm. A single seam centers the back and makes it fit smoothly, the while making it look radically different from the fronts, which ripple cross- wise, because gathered into seams running from the shoulders to the hips. These six iong seams, as well as the cross-rippled fronts of the basque fastening with ball buttons, run un- der a sash swathing the hips, knotted low in front and dropped to the hem of a full over-dress that covers all save a finger’s length of the under- skirt. At sides and front this over- dress is gathered to the edge of the basque. But just as that basque’s back dif- fers vastly from its front, so does the rear of the over-dress differ from every other fortion of it. From three inches below the walist line and be- tween the last of the two under-arm seams the material is nine times shirred across, producing a frill- headed panel, under which the hip- swathing sash starts. Ball buttons trim the closely fitted sleeves half- way from wrist to elbow, and de- fining the neck is a fluted double tulle collar, standing straight upward from a black velvet tie. If you would learn from whence comes that dou- ble fluted frill, turn back the pages of the family album until you come to the photograph of the aunt who was' a belle during the late 60’s. She will be wearing it about a neck bared only when she dressed for a ball. Military Effect in Green Broadcloth. Another creation for the autumn, in forest green broadcloth, shows the longer fall coat. This additional length is effected by a ripple tunic joined to the upper portion of the coat, which i gathered at the walist line. Loops of braid and braided but- tons add military distinction, as also the high, square shoulder effect. Skunk fur edges the light flaring collar. The skirt forms deep box pleats.

KEENEY’S BILL IS PROVING POPULAR New episodes in “The Perils of Fauline,” the Eclectic company's famous photo-play which is being fol- lowed with interest by local people, will be features of the motion picture program at Keeney’s tonight. The attendance Thursday nights is steadily increasing as a result of the popularity of this remarkable story ond it is expected that this will be continued again this evening. The episode to be shown tonight requires two reels of unusual length. Pauline’s experiences are getting more exciting each week and motion picture de- votees are kept speculating as to what will happen next. The Franconia Opera company continues to gain in popularity with the Keeney patrons, “An Ideal of Ven- ice,” the operatic sketch which it is presenting being of such high merit that the act is the subject of discus- sion among theater-goers." The com- | pany is without question the best ag- gregation of operatic singers to honor New Britain with a visit. The mem- bers show up to excellent advantage in the solos and also sing creditably in the chorus numbers. They confine themselves entirely to the opera, ren- dering selections from some of the most popular musical creations. Lead- er William Johnson and his orchestra deserve credit for the admirable play- ing of the difficult score used by the company. The Four Regals offer one of the most spectacular gymnastic special- ties ever seen here. They do a num- ber of sensational acrobatic feats, in which they exhibit remarkable strength. Their act has a unique set- ting, the scenic arrangement describ- ing the blacksmith shop of years gone by. % Demitriuse, the Grecian poser, has an act that is entitled to considerable praise. He does some artistic work and is liberally applauded for his efforts every evening. Prince and Arnold, musicians, have an entertaining pianologue, and Stan- lev and Moore make a bid for ap- pluuse with a lively song and con- versational turn, their medley of pop- ular songs finding special favor. —— I Household Notes—} A8 TS It.is very handy to have a supply of round straw seats on grass or veranda. mats for A bottle of dried-up glue will be- come soft if a little vinegar is plac in the bottle. 5 s Brass if rubbed after it has been tarnish so quickly, with sweet polished will oil not Always put the scrubbing to drwAwith the bristies down. will save the brush. brush This Apples cored and filled chopped dates or figs, then make an excellent dessert. with baked, A Menu for Tomorrow Breakfast.

GAS ON THE STOMACH Flatulence, or gas inthe digestive tract, 18 an annoying accompaniment of intese tinal indigestion and constipation.

STORY OF THE MINES IN BIG FOX PICTURE “The Great Mine Disaster,” a pow- erful story of heroic deeds and noble sacrifices of the men of the under- ground world clearly told in four masterful parts will be the special attraction on the big motion-picture program at Fox's theater today. A short synopsis of the story follows: Walter Preston, a mine owner, learns that a strike has been de- clared by his miners, so he and his By RUTH CAMERO Did you ever try to read character by color combinations? If you haven't, try it some time, 1t is an interesting study Of course, I don’t mean that the colors a woman combines will re- veal minute details about her character, but they will often glve you an interesting clue to the general type to which she belongs. For color harmonies, just like sound harmonies, range from the sim- ple to the complex, and are appreciated by people with the corresponding range of personalities. For instance, blue and white or pink and white is an absolutely sim- ple and obvious color combination. It is the kind which children appre- ciate and which becomes them best. It is like a childish melody in which some very simple phrase is reiterated, Pink and green is just a little less obvious. 1 feel sure that the lady in the pink hat with the green wreath and the green gown with the pink ruff is a sweet, nice, commonplace sort of person, and when she turns her face toward me, it carries out that conjecture. It is sweetand rather pretty, although entirely without that peculiar force which we vainly try to define by calling it “fascination.” Had I seen the face first 1 fancy I could have deduced the pink and green from it. Also, given that color combination and that face, one could guess the general character of her conversation. She is the sort of person who has a fine fund of friendly remarks about the weather; she saye the nice, obvi- ous things on all subjects and she is given to bromidioms, seldom missing & chance to say, “It never rains when you take your umbrella.” 1 am sure she would be pleasant though not stimulating to live with, When I was a child T was told that blue and green did not “go to- gether.” My eyes were not opened on this subject until a dramatic read- er came to our town one evening in a gown In which the blending of blue and green was as exquisitely harmonious as her beautiful voice. She read “The Lady of Shalott” to music, anq simultaneously satisfied eye and ear and brain. Of course, blues and greens must be combined with judgment. You may not carelessly throw any two shades together, but the color music which you create is proportionately beautiful. It is to. the simple and obvious combination of pink and white what a complex harmony is to & popular song. It is “close harmony”; a mistake would be fatal; success is its own reward. Yellow and gray, coral and old blue, brown and black are two or three more examples of the less obvious color harmonies. Pale pink and deep red is another, There are three stages of taste for the red-haired girl. In the first she wears that bright blue which is popularly supposed to be so “becoming” and which actually kills her hair; in the second she adopts the various shades of green, which are excellent; and in the third she awakes to the fact that certain shades of pink (onee her tabooed col- or) are her most becoming setting. Of course, character study by color combinations Is not an exaet science. Far from it. It merely supplies one or two more symbols by which we can try to read that most complex and fascinating of all hiero- glyphics—the human character. A e Daily Fashion Talks BY MAY.MANTON a o N = N N manager take rigid steps and dis- charge the ringleaders, which proves an effective method of settling the strike. The d'scharged miners plan | to be revenged on the manager, Ham-: ilton, the manager, calls on the mine | owner's daughter, and while there shows her a letter from Conway, a, mining engineer who applies for a position. On his way home, he is waylaid by the two miners whom he had discharged, they murderously | attack him, but assistance come un-| expectedly. Frank Conway chances to see the attack, and puts the ruf- fians to flight whicn pledses the man- ager, and which puts him in imme- diate favor with him, and rewards him with the position which he &p- plied for. Soon after Conway meets the manager, who is strolling with the mine-owner anc his daughter, introduces himself and tells of his brave act. The manager and the mine-owner go off to discuss some new project leaving Conway and the girl together. The girl's charming personality makes a profound impres- sion on the young engineer, who 1s quite smitten with her. The inci- dents leading up to the great mine disaster, the rescue of the young <n- gineer, and the death of the manager who lost his life in the brave rescue are so clearly and tensely told, as to stamp this production as one of the | best shown here thie season.
