Dicky’s voice, almost a Wwhisper, roused me from the delicious half- sleeping, half-waking rest which fol- lowed my terrific headache.

I rose from my pillows, but Dicky came forward swiftly, and putting tender hands on my shoulders gently laid me back again. “A good nurse always enforces im- plicit obedience -from a patient,” he said gayly, “and I haven't discharged you yet.” “But Dicky,” I protested, “I told you had when these headaches final- iy leave me I am perfectly well again.” “You are not perfectly well until you have eaten a square meal’” Dicky’s tone was strictly professional. “Are you hungry?” “Hungry! When one of these head- aches finally does leave me, I am perfectly ravenous. That's one reason why I want to get up, so I can get something to eat.” “Madam!” Dicky's manner was as ponderous as that of a judge, ‘““when 1 married you I promised to cherish you in sickness and in health and I &am now going to do as nice a little Job of cherishing as any you ever Wwitnessed. That is,” he added, “pro vided you obey as you should have promised to do, only the ministers nowadays don’t dare to put it in the service.” A Bed-Side Picnic. He. swept the things from the table at the side of my bed so recklessly that T wondered half of them did not drop or break. Then he vanished into the other room, bringing back an | Immense tray laden Wwith covered dishes which he deposited with a ludicrous air of pride. “Y guess this is not bad,” he an- nounced grandly and vanished again. This time his entrance was preceded by the odor which is the most grate- ful to my nostrils.of any in the world, the fragrant aroma of hot coffee. But when he entered, with the’| stand upon which I keep the coffee machine in one hand. and in the other the apparatus itself tilted most alarm- ingly, I had to protest. _ “Dicky, Dicky, you'll drop that! be careful!” But Dicky promptly squelched me. “Now, Miss Schoolma-am, don’t be so fussy,” he admonished. “I pre- pared this coffee with.my own fair hands, after carefully sterilizing the hands. You can be certain sure I'm not going to spoil the party by spilling any of it."” He put a napkin over his arm in ihe most approved waiter fashion anq bowed low.. “Will madam be served?” “Madam must bathe her face and hands first,” I replied. ‘Do let me get up, Dicky, and I will be glad encugh to come back t6 bed and eat. That always had been my idea of the lap of luxury, breakfast in bed.” “All right,” assented Dicky, “but hurry up, or all the things will be cold.” “Nellie Taught Me How.” I slipped out of bed and into my negligee and Japanese sandals, twisted up my hair and hid its disorder under one of my breakfast caps, which I took from a drawer in my chiffoneer. I noticed Dick looking mischievously at the drawer, so I was not much sur- prised at his appearance when I came back from the bathroom with my face glowing from dashing cold water against it, my iInvariable morning Do ARSONS’ EATRE=-Hartford hight and Sat.'Night at 8:15 Matinee Saturday “SEARCH "ME” i Nights, 25c to $1.50; Mats,, 25c¢ to $1.

Mr. Farnum is the highest salaried actor of the screen' today, drawing $100,000 a year for his work. | Mr. Farnum was first of the great | legitimate actors to forsake the stage, but he says today that he never was | more contented nor happier in his | work. Mr, Farnum is a man of unusual personality. He is tractible and mod- est and has none of that selfish con- ceit which is found all too often with persons in all walks of life who have | attained success. | In connection with “The Wonderful | Adventure,” too much credit cannot be given to Frederic Thompson, the | producer, for the unique photo- graphic effects he has introduced and the general power of the production. For instance, Mr. Farnum is seen shaking hands with himself, viewing his own dead body and opening a door for himself. b 5 latest Wil- liam Fox production develops all the resources of the camera under the able direction of Mr. Thompson who is' now hard at work on another big picture. How a vexed problem is finally solved, makes ‘“The Wonderful Adventure,” a photo-play romance of entrancing power and thrilling inter- est. There will be several single reel comedies to augment the big feature and Miss Emma Stevens, the popular primadonna comedienne will render a completely now repertoire of popular song hits in her own artistic fashion. “THE SHEPHERD KING” AT POLI'S NENT WEEK Poli’'s theater will set a new rec- ord in stock next week by presenting the biggest and most costly produc- tion that the American stage has, known, “The Shepherd King,” a play that takes its place with “Ben Hur” and such other notable dramatic ac- hievementss The play is Wright Lorimer’s great Bibical drama and is absolutely superb. The play opens on sunny flelds and hillsides, the home of Jesse, the father of David. The boy is in the fields, the sheep are led to the fold, the women ser- vants weave cloth and the brothers go and come about their rustic la- bors: Suddently down a flight of rocky steps descends a group of SIMPLY SAY 7 ‘CHARGE IT” FALL STYLE EXHIBI Authentic Styles for Men, Women and Children — embracing every neceded Garment for Fall and Winter wear.

There is an immediate quickening of the pulse when the royal world of Saul's court touches the simple pastural life of David's home. Finally, in the ripeness of manhood, Davia stands a king, the master of his own, the ruler of a willing people. “The Shepherd King” presents a high achievement in play- writing and stagecraft. In it delin- eation of character; in its exposition of the life of the Israelities in the days when they were a great nation: as a lesson to the young and an intell- ectual treat to the old. ‘“The Shep- herd King” knows no rival on the modern stage. It is indeed a re- markable play. Through the pomp and circumstances of David's pro- gression to a new estate; through the brazen flash of war, it is not David, the slayer of Goliath, who stands out most clearly against the richly col- ored background of this wonderful play. It is David the poet, the lover, who goes directly into the hearts and sympathies of the audience. The presentation of “The Shepherd King” is one of the most ambitious stock undertakings in local history but the original scenery—five carloads of it —will ' be used at Poli’'s and the man- agement is sparing no expense to make it a notable achievement.

In the grad- ual desuetude of old observance, this custom of solemnizing our proper birthday hath merely passed away or is left to children, who reflect noth- ing at all about the matter, nor un- derstand anything in it beyond cake and orange.”—Charles Lamb, “On the day before my birthday,” 1 heard a New Thought speaker say recently, 'l spend the whole even- ing answering a set of about two hundred questions.

It is hard to conceive of anyone with the leisure and the fixity of pur- pose to spend a whole evening in that admirable way.
