That happened for several of the per- formances this week. The advance sale for “The Three Twins” is already in progress and there are indications al- ready that the 8 R. O, sign will be in evidence again. Those who in- tend to see 4The Three Twins” had better securgftheir tickets immediate- Iy. Do not delay, or you will be among the disappointed ones. Tele- phone to 1369—and have the tickets reserved, “The Three Twins” is chock full of bright scintilating comedy. It is the sort that has a punch to it. does it contain the fine elements for | Jaugh-making purposes but it is de- entertaining through its tuneful musical numbers. Pretty dances and handsome costunies add to the charms of the attraction. “The Three Twins'” is a converted produc- tion of “Incog,” that well known com- edy. It retains enough of the ele- ments of the original farce to lightfuliy malce it recognizable and at the same | time it is brought out in a different light through the introduction of music. The theater goers are offered the most elaborate attraction of the year in “The Three Twins” as the management’'s demonstration carrying out the “Made in New Britain” idea. FINE PROGRAM AT LYCEUM SUNDAY All those whe attend the Sunday evening concert at Lyeceum on Sun- day evening will be treated to eight reels of the very latest motion pictures produced. The management has made up a program of comedy and drama that is gudranteed to please. Hssanay, Vitagraph and Biograph productions —right up to the minute in the mak- ing—are on the list to be shown. The popular screen idol Francis Bushman appears in the pretty ro- mantic picture “Black and White in the Glare of the Lights.” The picture abounds in most attractive settings, is so well constructed that the story is followed easily. There are incidents of melodramatic moment and tht au- dience follows the actions of Mr. Bush- man with growing interest and in- creased admiration. This is a three- reel Essanay production. Thrills are felt as the actors in ‘‘The KEnemies” carry out the plot of the picture story, The Hensational action of the per- formers is exciting. The picture runs three reels in length. For laughter the management pre- sents “In the Boarding House” and “His Night Out.” Follow the actions and enjoy the farcical situations cleverly worked up. A programme of popular music will be rendered during the pictures and a fine evening's entertainment is to be had in this popular playhouse. DIVORCE QUESTION AT POLI'S NEXT WEEK A human story, vibrating with real life, is told by Willlam Anthony Mc- Guire in “The Divorce Question” in which the Poli Players appear twice daily next week in Hartford. The play is replete with many dramatic situations that are tense and, although some might be inclined to say, as others have, thas the play is daring in its presentation of the subject, many ministers have from their pul- pits, commended the play. The play- ers will give Mr. McGuire's play a capable presentation. The company’'s personnel lauds itself admirably to this play and the patrons expect a notable achievement. There are sev- eral forceful roles in the play and all of the favorites will be seen in the cast. This is the first time that “The Divorce Question” has been presented on any stage in Hartford, despite the fact that it has been a big success, having played one engagement at Mc- Vicker's Theater in Chicago for 125 performances. Everywhere it has played it has been warmly received, not because {t is a sensational play and the fact that it treats of an every- day theme. Thert will be a souvenir matinee Monday and photographs of the players will be given on Thurs- day afternoon. FOX’ “Made in New Britain Week.” Attractions that proclaim the Fox Supremacy.

JESS WILLARD in Motion-Pictures, Not only | Mint Ts Again Coming heatre Goers and Into Favor With Cooks and Domestic Science Teachers Physicians Say It Is Healthful and Has Beneficial Effect on Digestion and Nerves—It Also Cools the Blood. There are few housekeepers who realize the possibilities of a small Lunch of fresh mint, or Wwho know how its piquant flavor will entirely change the character of the dish to which it is added. Fortunately, mint is again coming into favor with both profes- sicnal cooks and the teacners of dom- estic science, for not only is it liked by the majority of people, but physi- cians tell us it is a most healthful herb, with a beneficial effect on the di- gestion and nerves, n-oolling to the hlood during the early spring months. Mint is a very ancient herb, “bitter herbs" of the Paschal Feast of Bible times said to have been a m.ixture if mint, dandelion, camomile, tansy. ect. Mint is now seldom used as a salad, but as a salad vinegar, in salard dressing. For this vinegar mint alone can be used, or a combination of mint, chieves arragon, using one ounce of each fora quart of vinegar. Bruise the green herbs, so that the flavor may be easily extract- ed, place in a jug or bottle that can be tightly corked, fill up with vnegar, set outdoors in the sun, and leave it for two weeks. Then strain and bottle for usge. Tt will keep indefinitely and give a delicious aromatic flavor to any salad made with it. Cide vinegar, or white vinegar may be used with the herbs, Formerly mint was used exclusively in combnation with spring lamb and green peas, Although these are still favorite ways or utilizing 1t, others are now being tried with good results. To make a delicious mint sauce to serve with hoast lamb chop fresh mint very finely and place three tablespoon- fuls of it in a saucopan. Add two heap- ing tablespoonfuls of sugar and eight tablespoonfuls of vinegar. Let the sauce get very hot, but not boil. it is ready to use as soon as it Is cooled. Mint Sauco To Serve With Mutton. An improved sauce to serve with boiled mutton, instead of the well known caper variety, is made by add- ing to the desired quantity of cream sauce when it boils and thickens a few bruised sprigs of mint and a little onion juice. Stir the boiling sauce until well flavored, then strain, reheat and add the desired quantity of capers. ‘When cooking green peas. to serve | With spring lamb try using a few sprigs of mint with them. Remove the mint just before the seasoning s added, The novel flavor fmparted to as well as being | The | summer savory and balm, | the fresh vegetables will be found de- cidedly pleasing. Mint butter is also a great favorite for making sandwitches, m combi tion with finely minced meai of any kind. To prepare the butter take a handful of mint ledves and the same of parsley. Let them simmer together in hot water for five minutes. Then ¢rain and press dry. Reduce to a bulp by either mashing or pounding, and for each. four tablespoontuls of the herb allow half a tablespoonful of onon juice. Work this when well mixed, into four tablespoonfuls of butter, Keep as cool as possible until 1eady to use. For green pea salad take onc cupful of fresh, cooked peas, Drain the vege- tuble and mix with a cupful of shred- ded lettuce and one tablespoonful of choppped fresh mint. Sprinkle very lightly with salt; moisten with either n French or mayonnaise dressing and heat in a mound on a platter. Sur- round with a border of crisp lettuce leaves and garnish with grated cgg yolk. Mint Apple Jelly. 5 Apple Jelly very dellcatety ftavored with mint will be found delicious to serve with roast duck, lamb or goose, It is made in the usual manner from ! tart, juicy apples not overripe. Add to ecach cupful of the strained apple juice one tablespoonful of mint extract and tnen proceed asg for ordinary jelly us- Ing equal measures of juice and sugar. "'o prepare the mint extract take one | cupful of fresh mint leaves well pressed down and steep slowly for one hour in a small cupful of boiling water. Then strain through a thin cloth, squeezing out all the juice that will come. This furnishes an attrac- tive color, making the jelly a bright green. Mint ice or frappe, as it is sometmes called, is a delicious novelty. Boil one quart of water and a cofree cupful of sugar together for fifteen minutes. Then add one cupful of fresh mint lenves which have been chopped fine and soaked for ome hour in a small cupful of cold water. Heat the whole to the boiling point, strain, and when one lemon. freeze slowly for five minutes; then re- niove the cover, stir in the stiffly wkipped white of one egg and continue freezing until firm and smooth, Serve in small crystal sherbet cups sprin- kled with chopped candied orange peel.® JESS WILLARD, FOX'S NEXT SATURDAY Little, if any at all has even been mentioned in local papers in reference to most artistic’and 'well rendered musical program at Fox's. The man- agement since the installation of the mammoth Moeller organ, unknown to the leglion of the Fox patrons has ERNEST F. JORES, had considerable trouble securing an organist who would be In a position to play for the photo-dramas as pa- trons would like to hear them played, and not until the arrival of the pre- sent organist Ernest I". Jores dld the music come up to the standard of perfection. Unheralded, and making no fuss over his coming to this city, Mr.'Jores has more than made. good, and daily he is at his task making the patrons thrill, smile and weep at his most artistic handling of the organ. He is an organ virtuoso ot brilliant attainments, and his quick insight into the most difficult organ compositions enable him to render with remarkable skill difficult pieces. During the “Made in New Britain Week” commencing with next Mon- day, Mr. Jores will give a recital both afternoons and evenings as a special musical feature for the celebration. Tlox patrons who desire a certain se- lection played will kindly hand their request in at the box-office, stating what day or days they would like to have Mr. Jores play it and their re- quest will be gratified. The motion picture programs for the coming week most attractive and interesting ones combining comedy with drama. For Monday and Tues- day The Shuberts present, Fred Mace and Josle Sadler in “What Happened to Jones” a five part comed: ple- turized from the famous comedy stage success of the same name, a two reel Keystone comedy with a laugh and a scream a minute, and the latest chapter of “The Black Box."

As an added at- traction for Thursday, Friday, Satur- day and Sunday night. “Jess Willard” the champion of the world will shown in motion pictures. LANGWEED $ISTERS GOOD AT KEENEY'S The versatility and originality of the | Langweed Sisters, who are appearing this week at Keeney's, has made this pair of entertainers exceedingly pop- ular with the patrons of the theater and their act finds such favor that they are forced to respond to several curtain oalls at every performance. The young ladies seem to enjoy their work and apparenily they get a great deal of pleasure out of it. One of them is an eccentric comedienne of a most unusual type. She furnishes one continuous gale of mirth-pro- vokers from the time she makes her first appearance unti] the final exit and her wit and original patter keep the audience in a state bordering on hysterics. The girls are clever and their act is one that is bound to win the approval of theatergoers every- where. Keeney's frequently present acro- batic specialties of various type and quality but it is seldom that tumblers of the ability of the Loge troupe visit this city. They are furnishing the ex- tra attraction this week. They have a number of sensational feats, Their worfk is of a thrilling order. Del Adelphia, the famous magician and slight-of-hand worker, is this wecks' popular headliner. His act differs in many respects from the or- dinary magical specialty, his tricks are original and new and his style in- imitable. His disappearing bird cage feat is one of the ncatest things in the sleight-of-hand line ever shown here. Joe Marks, ‘the little nglish com- edian and Bill Johnson's troupe ol cabarct singers, also provide a special- ties of merit. It is said that the colors in high- est favor are black-and-white, n blue and green—the greens and blues frequently being striped. THIS WILL INTEREST MOTHERS.

Clara Kimball Young will be seen at Fox's tomorrow night in “My Offcial Wif a five part drama of Russian life in which she plays the leading role of a beautiful young Nihilist. Miss Young is supported by an all star cast of favorites foremost among them being Harry T. Morey, Rose E. Tapley and Earle Willams. The story is from the pen of Archi- bald Clavering Gunther and produced by the deaconess of the screen Mar- gurite Bertsch. The story is woven around a beautiful Nihilist, Helene Marie, who, in order to get the secret police on the frontier of Russia, in- duces Lennox, an American, to intro- duce her as his wife, in order that enter on his passport. The story abounds with intensely drama- tic and interesting situations, chock full of thrilling and heart throbbing climaxes. The finale of the story is most dramatic, and the destruction of a beautiful yacht by a Russlan torpedo is a most marvelous bit of staging. Besides this blg and most powerful attraction several single reel comedies augment the always interest- ing motion-picture program. Theron Hart, will play several musical num- bers on the mammoth organ differ- ent from those he will play tonight. Jt is indeed evident that the Fox policy of showing none but the very best and costliest photo-play produc- tions on the market has met and is continuing to meet the unqualified ap- proval of the New Britain theater- going public, and that the manage- this policy is clearly seen by glancing over the attractions advertised at the theater for the coming week. “The production extraordinary will be shown for the last time tonight.
