Its situations, clean and wholesom.: and rapidly moving, are enriched by constant play by witty line and fresh- coined slang. Its characterizations are sharply done, etched no less for mirth than truth. “BOHEMIAN GIRL” ON WAY HERE “The Bohemian Girl” comes to the Lyceum shortly- This is said to be a sumptuous spectacular production of Balfe’s famous masterpiece and will be presented by the Aborn Opera company with not only a grand op: cast of soloists, immense chorus, brii- liant corps de bzllet but in the realis- tic scenes of the Fair und the Gypsy camp there are introduced a number of horses, a troupe of whirlwind acro- bats and” numerous other novelties. A special orchestra is said to lend much "to an unusually even perfor- mance of Balfe's best work. TRYONE POWER TO BE SEEN ON SCREEN HERE Lubin's great comedy, “A Texas Steer,” with Tyronne Power playing the leading role, will be the Big Four feature at Keeney's tomorrow and Friday. This six-reeler is one of the greatest western pictures ever produced and considerable interest attends the announcement that it will be shown in this city. The comedy has received the endorsement of lead- ing critics in the large cities where it has been given in its picturized form and it is expected that New Britain ‘‘movie” devotees will also place their stamp of approval on it. The picture will be a fedture of the program both afternoon and evening. The Pathe Weekly and some other goad films will also be shown Thursday. Tonight’s star attraction will be “Niobe,” featuring Hazel Dawn. This photo-play has ben widely advertised and it is said to be exceptionally in- teresting. It will share the top po- sition with “A Texas Steer” tomor- row night. Friday and Saturday, the manage- ment announces the popular comedy, “Help Wanted,” for its feature. There are three big vaudeville acts on the bill this week.

This pair dis- plays considerable cleverness as fun- makers and singers as well. Haynes and Baldwin have a pleasing song specialty which they bill as “Tone Of Merit.” “THE VAMPIRE” NOW PLAYING AT FOX'S “The Vampire’” with Olga Petrova in the leading role opens a two-day engagement at Fox’s this afternoon. The title of this remarkable photo- drama. is derived from incidents in the life of Jeanne Lefarge (Olga Petrova) the victim of a bogus marriage. She is incensed to the point of revenging herself for the wrong done her by conspiring to enmesh all men who she meets and makes them her victims, She has two nten conspirators her nefarious work.

It can be made quite plain and finished at the slightly | raised waist line or and joined to a can ée used wit It is a very attractive and useful skirt as well as a fashionable one, excellent for the coat suit and for mirable for school and With the suspenders and yoke, it takes on quite a different effect from the plain laited skirt, but the two are equally ashionable and equally desirable. Sus- })enders are to make something of a eature of the autumn fashions and are being ‘extensively used. In the one view the skirt is made of Scotch tweed in a rich shade of brown with threads of red; in the other, it is made of Navy blue gabardine, with suspenders and yoke of taffeta, but as a matter of course, these last could match the skirt if preferred. For the 16 year size will be required 614 yds. of material 27 in. wide, 4 yds. 36 or 44, 234 yds. 54, with 34 yd. additional material for the suspenders in either 36 or 54 inch width.

The car reaches the brink of a précipice and by its own great velocity plunges over the edge hun- dreds of feet below, turning over in its descent. It is a wonderful bit of realism which keeps the spectators on the very edge of hysteria while this scene is on the screen. Some excellent sjingle relcomdis Some single reel comedies are also slated to be shown framing a most entertaining and diversified program for the coming two days. “The Vam- pire” will be shown tonight at 7:25 and 9:30 p. m.

Common baking soda is a great help in cleansing bath tubs and wash basins. Old rubberized raincoats can be cut up to make cases for rubbers or slippers. Also to cover the clothes basket when laundry is sent away from home. A bag of dried lavender from the garden is a delightful Caristmas gift to a friend. ried rose leaves or lemon verbena or rosemary are equally good. Bread flour should always be used for bread and pastry flour for pastry; for the two are quite dffferent things. Fads and Fashions 1 Taffeta, contrary is holding its own exceedingly well.

Bishop sleeves are one of the novel features of coats. retain Serge and Wwhipcord all their old favor for suits. Panne plush is cne of the favorite materials for dressy suits. A certain modified Moyen Age style is seen .among others. Little shoulder capes will be seen on the short-waisted coats. Some of the finer walsts are of velvet and chiffon combined. High collars are promised for the future crepe de chine waists. There never was greater latitude in fur fashions than this year. Heavy silk enbroidery is seen on some of the new velvet coats. For mature figures, sults made on fitted lines have the preference. A few bustle effects have ap- peared, but it is not probable that they will be in favor. Many of the new coats are cut in two sections and joined together at the normal waistline. In an Oriental gown of green satin and antique gold lace there is an adjustable Watteau train. Evening wraps are apt to have modified kimono sleeves, although The first should absorb the most wu- ter and the second the least. i The most extreme draperies are short panniers looped up at the walist- line, with a distinct reminiscence of the Marie Antoinette fashion. A lovely blue-and-silver evening gown shows the uneven bottom, which is a feature of the fashionable gown and the cascaded side drapery. A charming gown is of white net with blossoms hung from the tabs of silver braid. Anather pretty decora- tion is bowknots of silver ribbon. some bishop sleeves are worn.

"It isn’t considered polite to read a book while visiting,” said Molly, pointedly, And reaching out she gently but firmly removed the book from his hand. “Hey—stop it,” said the Cynic. Then, “Pshaw—you've lost my place. I was just getting interested D ..Serves you right. You shouldn’t read while we've talking Fashions,” interposed the Cynic. “The last thing I remember hearing was something about a question of fulness in some skirt. I picked up the book in self-defence. One of the Author-man’s I guess—by Stewart Ed- ward White,-and all about camping. What I laughed at was the description of a wet morning in camp.” A Wet Morning in Camp. . “I don’t think a wet morning in camp is anything to laugh at,” said the Author-man’'s wife, reminiscently. “It isn’t,” agreed the Cynic, “except in retrospect. Everything is as wet and soggy as you are going to be, ten seconds after you roll out of your blankets (if you aren’t already so). The tenderfoot (as White was pointing out when you stole my book) ventures out shrinkingly. He's awfully afraid he’s going to get wet, which he is, as sure as shooting, and he’s doing his best to stave off the inevitable. How the Old-Timer Takes It. “The hardened old-timer plunges in philospohically and takes his Wwetting. It's unpleasant, of course, but in a few minutes the edge of physical discomfort is worn off. And that's the end of it. Not so“the tenderfoot. He stumbles along, ducking the branch only to run.into the next one. He's getting wet, awfully wet. To his physical discomfort he's adding mental discomfort. He's ten times as uncomfortable as a result of ;Ais efforts as the man who took his ducking straight, and not one bhit ryer.” “It seems to me that if I cut "’ began the Author-man's wife, who had been eyeing the garment on her lap with preoccupied inattention. “Silence,” commanded the Cynic. ‘“This tale has a moral which, in the absence of the Lady-who-always-knows-somehow, I'm going to venture to. state. It goes to show that it- £ Molly Points the Moral. “A certain man I know would only tell his landlady,” interrupted Molly, “that he’s got to move the first of the month, instead of going about thinking how nice she has been to him and how sorry she'll feel to lose him and how much he dreads the ordeal, he'd not be in the same class as the tenderfoot he’s poking fun at. Silly, as if everybody didn’t know that if we'd meet life's nuisances head on, instead of shrinking within cur skins, we'd be happier and wiser and nowhere near so uncomfortable.” “Perhaps everybody does know s0,” said the Cpynic. “But if wso, plaguey few act upon it. | ANOTHER NEW FALL FROCK FOR THE DEBUTANTE to expectation, | FOR HER.

Articular rheumatism, inflammatory rheumatism and rheumatic fever are all names for the same disease. ~Muscular rheumatism affects the muscles and does not spread from one spot to another like inflammatory rheumatism. Lumbago is a form of muscular rheumatism. Some people have rheumatism every winter especially those people who in- herit a rheumatic tendency. They will continue to have recurring attacks until the blood is built up to a strength suf- ficient to overcome the rheumatic_poi- son. External applications and drugs that simply relieve the pain are useless. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills build up the blood and really correct the trouble. With the poisong in the blood there is & continual combat between the health forces and the disease. When the rheu- matic poison prevails the blood gets thin rapidly. When the blood_is made rich andred by Dr. Williams’ Pink_Pills the poisons areé destroyed and expelled. The free booklet ‘‘Building Up the Blood” tells the whole story and the diet book ‘“What to Eat’’ will be sent on re- uest by the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., achenecta.dy, N. Y.
