hy SlnRoeommend- l’inl&nm. Vegetable und. 'll m!&l Hliq a0d BEVERLY BAYNE e L; = REVELATIONS By ADELE GARRI and it & new made { WILLIAM FOX Presents son in New Britain Brotherly Love. Thank God! The Refuge of Jack’s “Oh! Jack, Jack! Thank God!” As I saw my brother-cousin, Jack Bickett, whim I had so long mourned as dead, coming toward me in Lilllan Underwood’s living raom, I stumbled to my feet ,and with no thought of spectators, or of anything save the fact that the best friend I had ever known had come back to me, I rushed into his arms and clung to [ him wildly, sobbing out all the heart- ache and terror that had been mine ®ince Dicky had left me in so cruel and mysterious a manner. I felt. as a little child might who had been lost and had suddenly caught sight of its father or mother. The awful burden that had been mine lifted at the very sight of Jack's pale face smiling down at me. 1 know that someway, somehow, Jack would straighten everything out for me. ‘here, there, Margaret,” Jack's -remembered tanes, huskier, weaker by far than when I had last heard them, soothed me, calmed me. “Everything’s going to come out all right.” “I'll see to it all. Sit down, and let me hear all about it.” There was an indefinite air of em- barrassment about him ywhich I could not understand at first. Then I saw beyond him the lovely flushed face of Katherine Sonnot, in her eyes there was a faintly troubled look. I, read it all in a flash. Jack was embarrassed becaure I had so im- petuously embraced him before Kath- erine, and she—I wondered if by any possibility she could resent my greet- ing Jack so affectionately. Things must have progressed very rapidly with them, I thought with a little chilled feeling at my heart, if Jack felt embarrassed at my greetl: after his long absénce, his terrible wound .,and my belief that he had been killed. 1 withdrew myself from his embrace abruptly, and drew a chair for him near ]y own “Tell Mé Everything. “Are°you sure you are 'fullx re- covered "’ I asked, and I saw Jack NO APPETITE—LITTLE SLEEP Symptoms of a-Run-Down Condition, We Have a Remedy. ‘We ask every weak, run-down per- o try, our Vinol. with the understanding that their money will be returned if it does ot re-establish their health.

MONDAY, MAY 14, 1017, - OF A look wonderingly at the touch of for- mality in my tone. ‘ “No, I cannot say that” he re- turned gravely, “but I am so much better off than so many of other poor chaps who survived, that I have no right to complain. Mine was a body wound, and while ‘I shall feel its effects on my general health for years, perhaps all my life, vet I am not crippled.” His tane was full of thankfulness, and all my pettiness vanished at the sudden swift vision of what he must have endured. The next moment he had turned my thoughts into a new " he said gravely, “I am terribly distressed to hear from Katherine that your husband has gone away in such a strange manner.” So she had already told him! The little pang of unworthy jealousy came back, but I banished it. w there must be no more time last,” he went on. ‘*You have had no man to look after things for you, but remember now, your old brother, Jack,’is on the job. “First, I must know overything that occurred on that last day. Did you notice anything extraordinary in his demeanor fhe last morning you saw him?” This was the old Jack, going di- rectly to the root of the matter, wasting no time on his own affairs or feelings when he saw a duty before him. I felt the old sway of his per- sonality upon me, and answered his questions as meekly as a child might have done. “He was just the same as he had been every morning since my acel- dent,” I returned. “H.m.” Jack thought a long minute, then began again. ‘“Tell me evervthing that happened that day, every visitor you had, don't omit the most trifiing thing,” he com- manded. e listened attentively as I recalled Harry Underwood's visit, and Robert | Gordon'’s, At my ftevelation that Robert Gordon had said he was my father, Jack's Im, judicial, manner brake into excitement. “Your father!" he exclaimed, then after a papse: “I always knew he would come back some day. But go on—what happened when he told you he was your father?"” I went on with the story of my, struggle with my own rancor agal my father, of my conviction that I had heard my mother's voice urging my reconciliation with him, of my father's first embrace and kisses, even of the queer smotheyed sound like a groan and the slamming of a door which I had heard. Then I told him of my father's gift of money to me, which I had not yet touched, but I noticed that toward the last of my narrative Jack seemed preoccupfed. “Be Very Brave.” “Did your husband come home to Marvin at all that day?’ *he asked. “No, he never came back from the city after he had once gone in, until evening. “But are you sure that this day he did not return to Marvin?” he per- sisted. “How dé you know '‘Because no one saw him,” I re- plied, ‘“and he could hardly have come back without someone in the house seeing him.” He sald no more, as Lilllan and Katherine came up just then, and the conversation became general. To my great surprise I did not see Jack again after that first visit, Katherine explained to me that he had been called out of town on urgent business, but the explanation seemed to me to savor of the mysterious ex- citement that seemed to possess every- body around me. Finally one marning, Lillign came 'to me, her face shining, ‘I want you to prepare to be very brave, Madge,” she said. “There is some one coming, to meet whom, I fear, will tax =il your strength.” “Dicky!” 1 faltered, beginning tremble.. ‘No, child, not yet,” she said, her woice filled 'with pity, “but someone who hds done you a great wrong— Grace Draper.” and to Menu for Tomorrow Breakfast, Fruit Sugar and Cream Bolled Eggs Cinnamon Buns Coffee Tunch Fried Ham Cheese Biscuits Fruit Coftee Dinner Cream of Spinach Soup Hamburg Steak ‘Tomato Sauce String Beans ‘\Mashed Potatoes ' Cold Blaw Cocoanut Drops Coftee Cheese Biscuits—Rub two ounces of butter into six ounces of flour, add three ounces of grated cheese, season- ing of salt, pepper and red pepper, and make into a stiff paste with a little. beaten egg.

No form of the English language is s0 gbused in this country as the superla- tive degree of adjectives. It may be a painting, an &ddress, an event, in fact anything—nothing will describe it so well as the superlative. Yet It d be an injustice to the members ‘of the Catholie Choral Union if the su- perlative were not used in describing its sixth annual concert I evening at the Russwin Lyceum. It goes be- yond comparing. favorably with past el AR T - PROF. F. F. HARMON. e P e S R R B efforts of the soclety, which have showed steady mprovement. It was the best. Nothing else will describe it as that word best, The concert was in twa parts. The first was “A Tale of Old Japan,” the words for which were written by Alfred Noyes and. the music by Cole- dge-Taylor. The second part was ““The Seven Last Words of Christ,” by Dubols. The soloists were Kathleen Lawlor, sopran Rosemarie Camp- bell, contralto; Wesley W. Howard, tenor, and 1 Schlegel, baritone. Proteasor Fréderick F. Harmon was conductor. ‘A large orchestra assisted. “A Tale of Old Japan' is a sweet idyl, having the odar of cherry blos- soms. It is a pretty love tale of the Orient, writfen only as the inspired Noyes can write, It was admirably rendered and this fact is worthy of .consideration as the score is more difficult than those usually selected for concert work. It was in the “Seven Last Wards of Christ” that the singers scored their real triumph. Nothing in music is so emotional as this masterpiece, which portrays the crucifixion of Jesus. It was in this number that the chorus displayed its ability. The blending of voices was perfect, demonstrating the arduous hours of rehearsal and the ambition of each individual to fur- nish the audience with perfect work. The soloists were equal in execution and voice to any that have been heard at concerts in this eity. Mr, Schiegel, in the second part of the program, stirred his audience to the depths of emotion by his masterly rendition. ‘While the cancert was a suuccess in every respect, it could not have been made so without the untiring efforts and zeal of the conductor, Professor Harfon. No eity of New Britain's size has yet produced better results with the talent at hafd than has he. Year by year, he scores triumph after triumph and each effort seems mare successfyl tham that of the previous year. Nearly every seat in the house was ocoupied and the response was warnr| and generous.

War- ner the popular stage star will be seen in “Wrath” the sixth of the Seven Deadly Sins which are being shown at Fox’s weekly: This is a vivid, gripping drama of modern life.

Clean House The Man I Pity There is a certain man,—a class, I mean, not an individual, whom I pity with all my heart because of the way his wife treats him. I do not mean that she is actively unkind to him. On the contrary she Is often most solicitous for his welfare and doubtless loves him as well as ghe knows how and would do anything for.him. That is, anything ‘except one thing. And the one thing which she would not do for him is to listen Intelligently when he talks of things outside her immediats inter- esats, especially of his business. He Feels As If Ho Must Have Some- one to Understand, He tells her about something that happened in the office, explaining carefully what this man said and that man answered. He is ful] of it and feels that he simply must have some- one understand it all. Her response at the end i» to 8y absently “Did you really?" and then with animation, n:em r that cousin of mine who etc., etc. She might just as well have sald, “I diab't listen to a word you were saying. 1 was thinking my own thoughts and waiting for you to - st through, Like a Blanket Soaked in Joo Water. Or perhaps her husband touehes on Dolph. All these questions and hun- dreds more are agitating the mind of the photoplay fan at the present time —but on Wedneaday Thursday the entire mystery will/be unfolded anl .all will be given an opportunity of seeing just how near correct they were in their solution of the problem. As an extra attraction for thess two days, William Fox will present his invigorating young star George Walsh in “The Book Agent,” a rapid fire comedy drama, which is bound to strike a responsive chord in the heart of every one who loves to see a live, red-blooded American in action.
