FUNNY PICTURE AT FOX'S THEATER! vl Mr. Gave,” hits of Convulsive joy is the most suitable | name one can give the six-part com- edy “Tillie'’s Pupctured Romance," with Marie Dressler and Charlie Chaplin, which is offered at Fox's for | today and tomorrow.

This one is both picturesque and prace tical. The trousers and blouse are finished separately, buttoned together, and consequently, it is always easy to have a fresh blouse at hand. For the present and for many weeks to come, serge and the like will be much used and heavy ribbed silk for dressy occasions, but a little later, the suit would be charming made of linen, of poplin or of the light weight éponge that is used for boys of any suitable washable fabric, the blouse always being white and of a thin ma- terial.

DEPARTMENT STORE GIRL IN POLI'S PLAY | The obstacles which confront a de- partment store gir] furnish the basis of the story of ‘“Maggie Pepper,” the Charles Klein drama in which the Hartford Poli Players are appearing this week. Rose Stahl made a hit in this play and Marguerite Skirvin the leading woman of the Players, is doing likewise. The play is one that will make a direct appeal to every girl who works for a living, for it deals with a character one might ex- pect to find in any big store. Mag- gle Pepper is gifted ,with a business sense that is, perhaps, greater than that of the average working girl, but and that arrangement means extreme comfort for the summer days fot which so many mothers are already preparing. For the 6 year size will be needed 23 yds. of material 27 in. wide, 214 yds. 36, 154 yds. 44, with 5§yd. 36 for the blouse and cuffs. The pattern No. 8571 is cut in sizes for boys fromj, to 8 years. It will be mailed to any address by the Fashion Depart- ment of this paper, on receipt of ten cents. A cup of hot tea taken at 4 o'clock in the afternoon will be found very | refreshing and invigorating. 1If taken at 5, the hour fovored by many hos- tesses, it is liable to spofl one’s appe- tite for the 6:30 or 7 oclock dinner. The little ceremony of serving tea is i so simple and redolent of hospitality that it should be introduced in every | household. even if there be only two | the or three members and guest to enjoy it. The ‘‘tea wagon'’ of wicker or wood has greatly facilitated tea serving. On this may be placed the pretty china, only teacups and saucers, per- haps, or possibly bread and butter plates may be added with the creamer, aish of cut sugar, spoon, dish of thinly chance still the character is typical, At the opening of the play Maggie Pepper is assistant buyer in a big de- partment store. The buyer has re- entitled to the place, but the manager decides otherwise. The new pro- prietor, a young man who has just returned from London, listens as Maggie tells him why the store is not | making a bigger success. She does not know that she is telling her story +| to “the new bos: But the young an active part in the management of his father's store and to follow some of the suggestions made by Maggie.

As the tea is the most important part of this informal littie function, be sure that it is correctly made. | This is really of more mportanca than its proper serving. The one way { favored by the Orientals requires that | the water be freshly drawn and boil- ing furiously in-the kettle. Rinse out the teapot with some of this water, then put in a level teaspoonful of the leaves for each person to be served and allow one over for the pot. Cover tire leaves only with the actively boil- i 1ing water, adjust the lid, cover the pot ! with a quilted “cosey” and let it stand for two minutes, Keep the water boiling in the kettle, and at the end of the two minutes pour in the desired quantity of water, and again place under the “cosey” for two minutes longer. This gives tea u delicious aroma and makes it strong enough to suit the average taste.

This one can be treated as shown on the figure, to be adapted to the cold days ind to the bleak March® winds, or made with flaring collar and with different trimming on the sleeves when it becomes suited to the milder days that are to come. In whatever way it is finished, it is essentially smart ‘and attractive, and since the belt can be arranged over the fronts or under them, it is adapted to almost every figure. The fullness in the back. is laid in plaits'and they are held by a belt which is passed over them and attached by means of buttons. Such a coat has all the advantages of avail- ability and of extreme smartness and yet is quite simple and not in the least diffi- cult to make, for the slightly full fronts that are joined to the yoke are casy to fit. Every suiting material is appro- priate, but nothing is more fashionable than the sand-colored gabardine illus- trated. For the 16 vear size will be needed 334 cream in their tea, and very little sugar. Earthenware strainers in Teapots. Many of the Japanese teapots have a small earthenware strainer, in which the tea is put when the boiling water is poured over it. This, by keeping the leaves from soaking In the water, | prevents the sharp bitter taste result- ing from the tanic acid, which is brought out by prolonged sieeping. As tea leaves are so light when ary it is by no means extravagant to | id a high price for a reliable brand and an cxclusive flavor. A quarter ! of a pound will last for a considerable | time. Keep the tea always in a well | covered tin box or cannister, and be careful to measure out exactly the quantity sired for the tea making. Many hostesses use a perforated sil- ver tea ball in preference to the tea- | pot. Although this possesses the re- commendation of producing the exact strength desired by each guest, it rarely gives as g0od a cup of tea as When the beverage is brewed in a tea pot under a ey.” A small silver strainer should, however, always be used in connection with the teapot, so that no unsightly leaves may find their way into the tea 'cups.

ROYAL CABARET IS KEENEY'S HEADLINER Vallah Clapp's Nine Jolly niles, wno are furnishing one of the features of the show at Keeney's this week, are probably the cleverest set youngsters ever appearing in this city. They are all precocious kiddies and they possess ability that would do credit to many performers their seniors by many years. The chil- dren’s ages range from six to sixteen, as the oldest member work hard and cleverly. They have. a repertoire of popular songs, some fancy dances and arills that are neatly done. The act is artistic and refined and it should be extremely popular all week. The real headliner is the act of the Royal Cabaret company. This is a big dancing specialty with enery and electrical effects more lav thing ever seen here. The settings are most elaborate and tne costumes are beautiful. The company carries a special orchestra, which plays for the Tour Tango Whirlwinds, the princi- pels. The dancing of this quartet is ¢f a very high order and it well merits the applause given by the audience daily. De Mile, a superbly formed young woman, does an artistic bit of posing. She poses for flgures in stereopticon reproductions of famous paintings. Grace and Chinese Walker have a song and conversational turn, with a little interpolated dancing, that goes Don’t scold your fretful, peevish child.
