Prof. Hermann's {llusions and slight-of-hand tricks are of a novel character and they serve to amuse the audience, the problems he offers interesting them as well. Music lovers are enthusiastic over Green, Miller and Green, a trio of instrumentalists, who play on a va- riety of instruments. Interest continues unabated In the announcement that Nazimova is to be seen at the theater during the week of January 22 in the sensational film, “War Brides.” Theater-goers ‘are also watching for the announce- ment of the date on which the new serial, with Mr. and Mrs, Vernon Cas- tle, will begin. It is to he shown exclusively at Keeney's. “CIVILIZATION” AT FOX THEATER TODAY The much heralded ‘“‘Civilization” opened at Fox’'s this afternoon and will continue at this house tomorrow and Sunday. There will be two shows tonight. 2 There is no advance sale in tickets so those coming early will secure the choice seats. “Civilization” 1s played atithe Fox theater for:the first time jan¥where at popular prices. It has been necessary to refuse hundreds of requests for tickets in advance for “Civiltzation.” The re- port that was circulated today that most of the good seats have been sold is entirely unfounded as not one tick- et has been sold in advance for any performance and will not be only for the second shows and these will be placed on sale after the first show has begun. Those/taking advantage of coming to the ticket sale early will have the choice of any seat in the house as the Fox management states positively that no seats whatever have been Teseérved. “Ctvillzation” is the greatest spec- tacle that has ever been produced in motlon pictures and as 40,000 peorle and 10,000 horses are seen in some of the scenes. It is the biggest thing that has ever been produced in any theater. Tt is an opportunity of a life time to see this great educational feature. It is a crying, screaming protest against World Wars. It is an appeal to mankind for preparedness and uni- versal peace. Never before has anything theatri- cal been attempted employing 40,000 pcople. Whole cities were bullt for the production and these same citles are destroyed by fire befors your eyes. -“Ctvilization” carries a Chris- tian message to every man, woman and child on earth, & human sacred message that will live with us as a Christian principle long after the memory of this towering spectacle, “Civilization” has passed from the i puhiic mind. .

WIFE WAS MISERABLE FOR THE PAST YEAR AND MAKES Mrs. Anna Balicko, 186 Grove St., This City Was Brought Back to Health and Tonic Herbal Lax-a-Tone. Many people are coming forward and voluntarily giving me their testi- mony concerning Herbal Lax-a-Tone sald Mr. Martin at the- New England Boonomy Drug Co., yesterday morn- ing, and they are people of standing that have the respect of the com- munity {a which they live. Now for instance that man that is just leaving the store, I will publish his testimon- fal in a few days. He was all run down and tired out when he started, stomach, had dizzy spells so badly that he says he fell d0wWn on the street twice and had to be taken home. He Just now came in to tell me what this wonderful remedy had done for him and wanted me to send his stster who lives in Maine two bottles as he knows that it will help her. Mr. Balicko was in last Saturday and tells this wonderful story about his wife. He saysi—For the past taking this remedy, Was sick at the' HE SAID STATEMENT T0 PUBLIC Strength By the Great year my wife has suffered agonlel from stomach trouble and indigestion. She tried many ways to get relief but could. find nothing .that would help her. She would bloat up with gas and her stomach would turn sour, had diz- Zy spells, headaches and could not eat at all, as she was running down and getting worse. I was much worried when I read of an article about Lax- a-Tone in the paper and thought I would try it and my, but I am glad that I did .as Mrs. Ballcko is a well woman today and I am ready to puhb- Mcly acknowledge it as a wonderful remedy. The Lax-a-Tone man is at the Econ- omy New England Drug Co.. 365 Main street, where he 1is ‘introducing this remedy to the New Britain public. Call on him and he will be glac to tell you all about it. He will remain until 10 p. m. Sat- urday evening for those unable to see him during the week, | BY RUTH I want to tilt at an accepted bellef . today,—that it is not wrong to give advice carelessly because people al- most never take the advice they ask for. “Advice is the one thing which everybody likes to give and nobody likes to take” is & typlcal epigram,— that is ‘“something that people accept as true because it is easy to remem- ber.” But is it wholly true? Aren’'t .we swayed by what other people think we ought to do more than that admits. Many Times I Was Bolstered Up By Good Advice. As T look baok I can see many a place where what people thought I ought to do upheld me. | To take a humble instance. Once upon a time when I was a newspaper reporter I lost my position just two or three weeks before Christmas. I had only had the position about two months and T had been saving hard for two things, to get myself a much needed winter outfit and to buy some nice Christmas gifts. I had not saved enough to do both and 1 was in a quandry. Should I buy measly Christmas presents and get the suit or should I wear my old clothes, buy the lovely Christmas presents I _had planned and get & new sul. when I landed the new position of which I had strorg hopes. 1 Thought She’d Advise Mc to Do ‘What I Wanted. I met a friend on the cfreet one day and I put it up to her. She was the kind of person whom I expected to advise me to do what I selfishly wanted to do,—get the suit. Instead she gave me & surprise by saying, “@Get the Christmas presents.” .And I da. The sequel is rather Interesting. I landed the new position and after Christmas, when prices were down, I happened upon the prettiest suit I ever owned or expeot to own. Had I bought before Christmas I should doubtless have gotten something com- monplace. Sometimes I Get the Advise I Wick- edly Want. That is one of many times when I was bolstered up by good advice to do the unselfish thing. And then there were ~other oc- casions when I weakened by some- one who deliberately chimed in with the advice my selfish self was giving mae. It is always a temptation to do that when people ask advice. It gives one a temporary popularity.: But it isn't real friendship. Refuse to advise at all if you wish but if you speak, don't be careless in your advice glving. Re- member you may speak at just the moment of indecision when your word will tip the scales one way or the other. o O “STAR AND GARTER SHOW” AT GRAND The attraction all next week at the Grand theater will be, “The Star and Garter Show” with a trio of stars. Today and tomorrow the Grand of- fers ‘Follles of the Day”.or ‘‘Hot Dog,” and ‘“What Does the Want?’ George P. Murphy, Hayes and Chester Nelson are the fea- tured stars.

About these happy- go-lucky young men, Mr. Selwyn has written one of the breeziest plays that has been seen for many a day. A sparkling comedy is what the author calls his latest work and in four live- 1y acts he tells the story of how two Chicago youths who are down on their luck, penniless and starving, finally land on Easy Street by meth-’ Jods that are not exactly the kind taught by the Ethical Culture society. Buck Ryder, the elder of the boys, finds himself face to face with a ‘board bill of rather large dimensions and being unable to meet the land- lady’s demands 1s moved to the side- walk. Desperate conditions call for desperate actions and Buck turns highwayman and chooses for his vic- | tim a young man who happens to be | in a worse plight than he is himself. Together they decide to pool fortunes and Buck takes the other unfortunate ! back to the boarding house and pre- sents him as Jericho Braden, a young man from the far West who has fal- len heir to a large candy business. The real Braden is thought to have lost his life in a railroad accident, so Dave Fulton easily passes muster as the lucky heir. The two ‘“rolling stones” obtain possession of the business and with it also fall heir to a serfes of adventures that finally result in build- ing up the business to huge propor- tions; that brings sweethearts to both boys from most unexpected direc- tions, and further, almost lands them both in jail. PIMPLY? WELL, DON'T BE! People Notice It. Dnve Them Off with Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets A pimply face will not embarrass you much longer if you ncr a'package of Edwards’ Olive Tablets.

A STORY YOU Olfi BEGIN AT ANY TIMB Her Side--and His How Cora and David Temple Soived Their Marital Problems By ZOE BECKLEY The Tonic of Sympathy. Lucy Benton's eves widened as Walt repeatedly slowly, “I'm with you, Lucy—you and your kind. I'm a reb- el. I must do things in my own way. Janet doesn’t understand why I'm not willing to alter my story to suit Ni- coll, and his half million subscribers! She doesn’t mean to be faultfinding, Lucy. It's just that to her the changes he wants are mere trifles, while to me they smash my whole idea to bits. Why, I wouldn’t put my name to a story of the pap-filled, sugary kind he demands. I couldn't——" ‘“There, there, dear old chap, you needn’t bother to tell me,” soothed Lucy, taking rapld note of Walt's wrough-up nerves and longing hon- estly to ease them. ‘You speak of ‘me and my kind.’ Well, ‘my kind’ are the kind who have sweated anl bled as you are doing for the sake of the best in them! Look at Olga Carol freezing to death all last winter in her stoveless studio, hammering away at her little bas-reliefs, and figurines that conventional people sneered at and insisted were ‘ugly’ and ‘absurd’. And look at Olga now—prosperous as an ammunition maker. Her figurines are sold everywhere and she can't keep up with her orders for the bas- reliefs. “And there’s Hugo Lantry. Re- member Hugo’s threadbare overcoat and how the girls used to mend it surreptitiously and put sandwiches in the pockets? Know what Hugo's do- ing now? Well, he's producing his own comedies at the Pocket Play- house and making good like anything! And look at me, even!” TLucy saw how her narrative was cheering Walt. “Look at me! Did you know I land- ed a cover on last month’s ‘Zenith’? ‘Well, sir, I did, and I've got an order this minute right here in my bag for $300 worth of title-page decorations for ‘Ambleton’s’! And didn't every- body call me a fool for not taking that job at twenty-five a week designing soapwrappers? “I tell you, Walt, it pays to stick to your ideals. Sometimes it only pays in satisfaction to yourself. And some- times it pays in honest-to-goodness cash. You stick around with our crowd for a while. The atmosphere hera'll put the punch into you. Your trouble is that you're working against too much pressure from the outside. I know your wife. She's a peach of a girl, too, Walt. But she can't see things from our point of view. You can't change her point of view, dear, but I'm sure she's sensible enough and broad-minded enough to be will- ing you should go at things in your qQwn way. But whether she is willing or not, you must get into the atmos- phere that encourages your work. You must meet people who are working along the same lines, and people who have connections that will help vou. Leave that part to me, Walt. T know evervbody in bohemia.” Lucy could hardly keep out of her voice the exultation she felt at the thought of helping Walt Stedman.

All about 38 them was light and warmth and a4 current of talk and laughter—not, 8 garish, as at the uptown cefes whero people drink and eat just to he drink= ing and eating, but rather as an ag-" companiment to conversation, the e change of ideas, the unfoldment ‘;-‘ purposes and hopes.
