Rudolf Friml has fur- nished a musical score,’ whose num- bers are said to be light, airy, tuneful and catchy. A plot, said to be invig- orating to the highest degree, was contributed by Otto Hauerbach, who added “Three Twins” and “Madame Sherry” to the world of galety.. The story has to do with a magic perfume which raises whomsoever gets a whiff of it to the seventh heaven of ‘ailarity. An American nerve specialist practic- ing in Paris tries its virtues on a young female patent, and it operates 8o well that the young woman throws her arms around his neck and kisses him raptuously. Her husband witnes- ses the proceedings, and, skeptical of the magic of the perfume, decrees that either the doctor shall die or else sur- render Mrs. Doctor to him to pay hug for hug and kiss for kiss. The doctor agrees to the latter proposition, but seeks to delude the Frenchman by passing off a young actress as his wife. Seats at Crowell’s, “THE IRISH DRAGOON” A ROMANTIC COMEDY Andrew Mack, the popular singing comedian, who will be the attraction at the Lyceum Thursday night, will present a new production in “The BAKING Irish Dragoon.” The play is a romantic comedy drama with many thrilling scenes and stirring episodes of the English Co- lonial war period of 1812. Theodore Burt Sayre, who wrote “Tom Moore” for Mr. Mack has written this new drama. It is a specially arranged version of Charles Lever’s famous ro- mantic novel of this period and s written around the dashing, dare-devil Captain O’Malley, the Galway soldier boy. CHAPLIN AND FIGMAN COMEDIES AT KEENEY'S Two big acts are included in the Keeney specialties this week. They are Turners symphony, a ladles or- chestra of ten pleces playing popular and classical airs during the roller skating performance of the Turner duo; and Lanky Bob, the famous box- ing kangaroo. Both acts are above the ordinary and they were enthusi- astically recelved last night. Benson and Belle, singers and dancers and Collins and Collins, acrobatic dancers, complete the vaudeville bill. Tonight's motion picture features will be screaming comedies, ‘‘The Mixup,” with Charlie Chaplin, and “What's His Name,” Max Figman playing the lead. Wednesday and Thursday, Edgar Selwyn will be seen in “The Arab” and on Friday and Saturday Marguerite Clark in ‘Claris- sa” will be the feature. The Big Four attraction to be shown Thursday and Friday will me, “Tillie’s Tomato Sur- prise,” with Marie Dressler. RAYMOND WILEY HAS MANY FRIENDS HERE Raymond Wiley, appearing at Fox’s this week is well known locally and claims relationship with many of the old time New Britainers. Mr. Wiley is billed as ‘The Man with the remark- able double voice” possessing a robust tenor and high soprano voice. B Mr. Wiley has had a most varied career. ‘While studying in New York, he would secure engagements at high class photo-play theaters and once at the Royal theater. Lou Dockstadter, hap- pened to hear him and was immediate- ly impressed with his ability to use both voices. Wiley's services were se- cured and 'he was featured in the Primrose and Dockstadter Minstrels which toured New England last sea- son. Helen Ware will be seen for the last time tonight in ““The Price,” the famous George Broadhurst stage suc- cess. The final chapter of “The God- dess,” a Chaplin comedy and other exceptional features frame the balance of the program for tonight. “An Enemy to Society”, with Lois Meredith and Hamilton Revelle will DLI PLAYERS IN | “KICK IN” THIS WEEK re are crook plays and crook and it is to the credit of the rs which do the booking for the Players that thev chose for this “such., gn, gxcellent. example of most modern school of drama as It played to big houses terday, and if real worth counts anything, the management should e no trouble in filling the theater ck In. ‘every performance.

This plot is thickened by the introduction of an irate Frenchman, a wandering grass- widow, and a certain doctor whose amiable disposition prevents him from resisting the embraces of a fair fe- male patient under the influence of the perfume. The hilarity mounts higher and higher as the complica- tions become more and more tangled. , | Throughout it all there are freely sprinkled catchy melodies, and a . | pretty chorus of joyous girls adds to the liveliness with song and dance and laughter. g V POWDER Absolutely Pure Made from Cream of Tartar No Alum—No Phosphate Denver Gentieman’s Code of Little Love Rules to Please a Husband His Eight Commandments A pplied to Himself By His ife—Now Waiting to Settle Amount of Alimony. (From Denver Post.) A little cold-boiled love, prepared according to a recipe which is to fol- low, will have a profound effect upon any husband—except a “late” one. It is not for widows, anyway. The rules have been formulated by a Denver gentleman whose wife applied them. At his own request, his name is with- held from publication until the ali- mony is settled. Rule 1—Wait until he has read about the latest defeat of his favorite Lelligerent nation, then rush into the breakfast Toom like a whirlwing, throw your arms around him while he is tryihg to drink coffee, and cause the latter to slop down his sleeve. Rule 2—If he fails to respond af- fectionately to the Rule 1 treatment, smile girlishly upon him, left knee and speak to him as if he were a baby—which will remind him of the honeymoon and af the fact that it’s his own fault he married you.

In planning your Christmas pres- ents don't forget that appropriateness is the first and last requirement.

The plain gored skirt that flares abun- dantly is one of the most important of thel autumn. This’one is cut in five pieces with the front edges hemmed and lapped, one over the other. It is a smart skirt and at the same time, a simple and easy skirt to make. Since the pattern gives ‘both the seams and the basting line, it is a very simple matter to cut it and to sew it, for one has only to cut on the outside edges of the pattern, and the basting line ‘being mat #2d, it is impossible to lose the lines. The skirt is a favorite one both for the coat suit and for the’ indoor gown and it makes up handsomely in silk as well as in wool. e finish can be made at either the slightly raised or natu- ral waist line. q For the medium size, the skirt will re- | uire, 614 yds. of material 27 or 36 in. wide, 3% ds. 44 or 54, if the material has up and down; 4% yds. 27 in. wide, 334 yds. 36, 2% ds. 54, if the ma- terial has neither figure nor nap. The skirt is 2 yds. and 28 in. wide at the lower edge. The pattern No. 8788 is cut in sizes from 24 to 34 waist.

Her little boy was sick—one of the exasperating upsets that the young stomach is so liable to. The deprivation was particularly trying because the mother in ques- tion had been unusually careful of the youngster's dlet for the last week or so in order to avoid this very contingency. You may think too much care defeats its pwn pur- pose, but you are not right this time. You see, the youngster went over to see his chum late on Saturday after- noon. The family were having an early Saturday dinner and piled him with baked beans. He liked them, but the liking was far from mutual, hence the lost trip. Think of Offering Baked Beans to a Child! Of course he has been told not to cat everythirg that is offered him, but far bigger blame, it seems to me, attaches to the woman who offered another woman’'s child anything with such a fearful reputation as baked beans. Indeed, I can’t see why women, especially mothers who know what trouble they may cause, will persist in this habit of feeding other peo- ple's children. Of course it is em- barrassing if the neighbor's child hap- pens to be present when your chil- dren are being féd, not to offer him something, but unless the food is something unquestionably harmless it is much kinder. My neighbor is extremely consci- entious about this matter, herself, and always insists that the visiting child go home and ask its mother, or herself telephones to the mother, that shows that By We had the best time at Helen's She is one of the Dridesmaids ! at the wedding, She invited the bridal party to her country house the week-end; | we've been rushing around so madly that the ....I motored you know. out over relaxation out was in the glorious! i morning, as she asked me to come early, and she had the place decorated in au: | tumn foliage and chrysnthemums | .She wore a charming little house ' before she permits him to share in candy or any such indulgence.

A friend of mine told me this story, so 1 know it must be truf, otherwise I should prefer not to think so. She asked a woman who last year in the work of collecting money for one of our finest com- munity philanthropies to help again this year. “No, indeed,” said the woman; I did a lot last year and my name wasn't even mentioned in the paper. Why should I put my time into it again?” ‘Why, indeed, if that was what was working for?

Answer—That depends on the size of the class and of the pupils. For a child a very simple dress of some dainty thin material (preferably nothing elabor ate or expensive) is suitable. For an older girl either a wash dress of some light material or an afternoon dress of a darker shade of silk. 1% permissible. The custom of the class would determine which.
