Above a rather low- set and moderately wide self-belt the bodice is plain, save for a pair of flat white cords dropping low upon the chest from the shculders. These cords fall partly upon the front of a white batiste collar which at back is so generously squared that it veils the figure half way to the waist line. TIts material is repeated in turned-back cuffs—the sole trimming of long sleeves, closely fitted below the elbow. In pure white this frock would be characterless, utterly lacking in sartorial poise.

THREE GOOD PLAYS AT PARSONS’ THEATER A MUSICAL TREAT AT FOX’'S THEATER At the Parsons theater, Hartford, tonight the first American perform- | ance of a comedy success that reigned in Europe for two years, “Taking ' Chances,” will be given. The event will also mark the entry of Lou-Tel- legen, for vears Mme. Jernhardt’s leading man, as a star, under the management of the Shuberts, who are making the American production. “Taking Chances” was originally pro- role will be given to Harry Jack- son, the young Hebrew comedian, whose work here entitles him to a position with the best character actors in the business. The musical selections for this piece are of an exceptionally high standard and this part of the pro- gram should go big. Special scen- ery will be used during the week. The celebrated Parisian sensation Lucille Savoy will be this week’s extra attraction. Lucille was a warm favorite on the Rurapean stage and the closing of concert halls as the re_ sult of the strife on the continent is responsible for her trip to this coun- try. Since her arrival on these | shares she has been making an cellent impression and she is booked for the balance of the season, some of the biggest vaudeville houses in the country being among the places she is to visit. Special electrical ef- fects will be used for her act. The Nelson trio, presenting an in- teresting novelty, are also on the pro- gram. Jeanette Homer, singing comdienne, will entertain with late ! songs and some fancy dances and Joseph Adelman and company wiil present a novel production that has been favorably received in other cities. The Hearst-Selig review will be among the pictures shown this even- ing. “ST. ELMO” TONIGHT, ducead in Europe under the title of “A Charming Fellow,” and it enjoyed record-breaking runs in Paris, Vienna and Berlin. The Shuberts secured the American rights and, because of | the European war, are able to pre- sent it here at a much earlier date than at first anticipated. T.ou-Telle- | gen will be surrounded by a cast of | unusual excellence, there being no | less than twenty-one speaking parts in the comeady. His leading woman is Ivy Troutman, well known to; Hartford patrons of the drama Dbe- | ca of her excellent work here in | special productions.

The story is one that involves unique situations and in the ! role of Count de Lastra, Lou-Tellegen ! will have mary fine opportunities to display his rare skill as an artist. ‘‘Milestones,” the literary and d matic sensation of Europe and Amer- ica, comes to the Parsons theater on Thursday afternoon and evening. with | a company of playvers specially se- | lected for the extremely difficult roles. ‘‘Milestones” is the work of | Arnold Bennett, novelist and e yist, | and Edward Knoblauch, author : “Kismet,” “The ¥aun” and other ! plays of the highest cla | ‘When a play achieves the remark- | able record of a vear's run in New York, it is sufficient reason for pl goers to assume that it is possessed of unusual merit.

Since the appearance of the book it has had a unique reputation. The story was written in the dignified style that characterized the attitude of the period and with ex traordinary insight into the though and habits of men. The version ‘Willard Holcomb shows in lifelike manner the story, staged in the Ten- nessee Mountains Edna Earl, the blacksmith’s daughter, is a lovi type, and strikingly is portrayed the benign forbearance of Dr. Hammona, the father of the boy who was killed in the duel, and the agnos 5 cal nature of St. RFlmo that v changed by purity and the devotion of a sweet country girl, is also finely written in the book. “St. Elma” has run through edi- tion after edition and has been trans- lated into nearly every language, and even today, after fifty vears, it is one of the b sellers.
