ApriL 29th. 1916 \ | by Fruit-a-tives Limited, OGDENS» | NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, SATURDAY, JULY 7 1917, T § What 1Is Tt That troubles Underwood . . “For heaven’s sake Madge. What on earth do you mean by that?" My wilderment when I told him was afraid we would have to Lillian Underwood out of our plans | for entertaining Robert Savarin. He | had gooad reason for being puzzled, for | months before when we had discussed the subject of the artist's return to the world from which he had been ahsentsso long, Lillian thusiastic in her plans for entertain- ing him, ,, Dicky did nat know that during the illness following my burns upon the night of his birthday dinner, Lillian had told me of her youthful romantic adoration of Robert Savarin because he had made it possible for her to realize her dream of becoming- an artist. She had also told me that be- cause of her husband's attitude toward her little girl the child of her | former tragicallr unhappy marriage, she and Harry Underwood had almost come to the parting of the ways, and that with her mind and heart so at- tuned to tragedy she did not think it wige for her to meet Robert Savarin | again. T had kept both secrets from Dicky, for T am not one of the women who believe that confidences from their | friends should be retailed to their hus- bands. But the fact that he was i ignorant of Lillian's feelings made it a puzzling matter for me to explain { things to him. T took refuge in a sub- ' terfuge, something which I loathe, but in which my life with Dicky had made me fairly proficient. “l don’t think she cares to go out much or to meet new people since she has her little girl with her,” I ex- plained lamely. “Then, too, Mr. Un- derwood is in South America, and I don’t believe she enjoys going with- out him.” Dick husband scowled at me in be- that I leave laughed aloud. “Make Her Come.” “What a prim little Puritan,” he said, with the teasing playfulness which always annoys me. ‘‘That sure is a scream, Lil not caring to go any- Wwhere becawse Harry isn’t around! Why, that gang they train with wouldn’t think it was respectable to be seen too often with your own Hhus- band or wife.” “I never saw the Underwoods with any one else,”” I retorted a trifle sharply. K “That's’ because you never saw much of them outside our own home,” Dicky shot back. *“But they always were mild compared to the rest of that bunch. Come to think of it, there may be something to your dope after all. Lil hasn’t been out since Harry left. It must be on account of the kid, though; I don’t believe her life is so bound up in old Harry's as to make her take the veil.” Dicky's mocking tone made me realize that he had no illusions con- cerning the state of the Underwoods’ marital affection. His next words made me wonder how far he was in Harry Underwood’s confidence. “Never mind what Lil savs,” he said abruptly. “Just make her come out here while Savarin is here. It will do her good. And she needn’t have any scruples on Harry’s account, That lad is perfectly capable of at- tending o his own affoirs. I'm about through’with him if anybody should happen to ask you.” A’ Smothered Sob. 1 was wise enough to make no comment upon this remark, startling though it was to me. Dicky must be possessed of some knowledge which he had not shared with me regarding Harry Underwood. I knew the friend- ship which had existed for years be- tween the two men, knew that it would take no light thing to shatter it. “I will call Lillian after. dinner,” I hurried to assure him. ‘“Then you can talk to her yourself.” The promise made me most uncom- fortable, however. The prospect of summoning Lillian to the telephone to listen to Dicky's raillery over her se- clusion grated upon my sense of fair play, and effectually spoiled my din- ner. But Lillian herself intervened. We were just finishing our coffee when the telephone .rang. Dicky usually answers it when we are sitting together, but he had seemed unusually tired when he reached home ,and he looked so comfortable in his big chair by the fire that I answered it myself. Lillian's Voice came over the wire, husky, strained. I knew by the sound to her. “Is that you Madge?” she asked, and then at my affirmative answer she said rapidly, appealingly: “C'an you come to see me, or may I come to you the first thing tomorrow morning ? Something has happened about which I must talk to you. I have no one but you, my dear.” I could hear the break in her voice, and I hastened to give her the as- surance for which she asked. “You know I am ready to do any- thing you wish, Lillian,” I answered. ‘Would you rather I would come to see You or would you prefer to come here?” be: inconvenience you it wouldn’t How’s This?

This subject, in which Alice Brady, the star of ‘‘Darkest Russia’, plays the leading rcle, is a- gripping five-reel object lesson to wives” and mothers, for it deals in a frank, though not at all vulgar manner, with a matter of foremost importance to family and racial existence. Miss | Brady’s role is that of a young wife, | who, because of the tradition that the " mothers of her family have always died .at child-birth, has come to look upon maternity with the greatest fear and horror. And so it is that she finds herself confronted with the choice between self-preservation, or | propagation. ‘“‘Maternity” is a pic- ! ture that every woman should see. In it, Miss Brady does some of the best i emotional work of her screen career. Among the other features of the same program is a novelty-comedy . entitled “Haunted,” in which two of the principal actors are Napoleon jand Sally, the well-known monkeys. ; Those animals are remarkably trained iand their motion-picture debut is sur- ! prisingly entertaining. l Sunday's feature will be a five-part Metro surprise, ‘“‘Alladin’s Other Lamp,” in which Viola will star.

WILLIAM S. HART TO STAR AT THE LYCEUM That local favorite, William 8. Hart, “The Desert Man,” will be the Lyceum fehture for Monday and Tuesday. It is a long time since this “good bad man” has been seen here, and all the cowboys and girls are planning to give him a royval wel- come. The younger generation has been seen in the Lyceum lobby study- ing his photographs for the correct way to ‘tote” a gun, as W. S. Hart is an authority on this gentle pastime. He is also some, lovemaker, and that will interest the local femininity. Boys who hold registration cards will be introduced to their future duties by following this feature attentively. On this same program will be seen another chapter of “The Secret King- dom,” which is known as ‘“The Serial Beautiful.” Refined comedies and the Lyceum. Weekly will complete the program.

BY RUTH I Are you at the present time form- ing any good habits? . There are certain much emphasized maxims of conduct which, while they are good in what they aszert, are not ! | sood in what they infer. One of these is the well pounded_in assertion that the only time to form good habits is while yvou are young. . That an excellent time, perhaps | the best time, but the inference that if you haven’'t formed good habits before vou are thirty there -is no use in trying to do so afterwards is bad. Your can form a good habit any | time you make up your mind hard enough. And as one ought to grow in control of one's mind as one 8§rows older one has that advantage to off- set the lack of plasticity in one's temperament. A Good Habit is a Path of Least Re- sistance. the to- A good habit mind, a path of least ward right living. Good habits accomplish that much to be desired miracle,—they help a man to do naturally the things he ougth to do. That is, they take that much effort off his mind and leave the energy for other things. Form- ing a good habit is like putting money in the bank. It comes hard at the time but once you get it there it begins to draw interest. ¢ And 1 think one should have at least one good habit aforming all the time, just as one should be putting aside something each month, It is an interesting thing to take is a groove in resistance BRITISH BRUTALITY IN AFRICA DENIED Condition of Natives Due to Ger- man Negligence, Is Charge London, June 30.—In reply to some remarkble stories of British mistreat- ment of natives in German West Africa which recently have been cir- culated by the German wireless, an official statement of the situation in that district has been given to The Associated Press. It declares that whatever sufferings have been en- dured by the natives of Ovamboland were due, not to British mistreat- ment, but to the neglect of the Ger- man government prior to British oc- cupation, and gives some details of the work of restoration and recon- struction which the British undertook as soon as they came into possession. The most recent German wirele: communique on this subject was is- sued on May 30, and said in part: “Terribly critical conditions have been created in German West Africa owing to the occupation of that coun- »try by the English. A missionary writes to a South African mission pa- per: ‘In the Ovambo country the terrors of war were followed by even greater terrors of famine. y and then the country has been v fore by similar afflictions, but the German government took care to pre- vent suffering by helpful precautions so that the afflictions never reached extreme severity. After the Inglish came, these precautions were neglec ed and hunger was able to ravage the unfortunate country without merey. Thousands of natives have fallen vic- | tims ¢ English neglect and misgov- ernment.’ The facts as established by reports from the governor general of South Africa, illustrate the reckless false- hood of the German official to- ments. The British reply is as fol- lows: The territory of Ovamholand was | included within the borders of the | German Protectorate of Southwest Africa, but was always lelt severe alone by the German admin A= tion. The events referred to in the wireless report occurred in 1915 and were directly due to the neglect of the German Protectorate to take pre- cautions a st famire. “Owing to a succession of droughts, want hegan to make itself felt in Ovamboland in 1913, and the famine culminated in a total failure of the crops in the: beginning of 1915. “Immediately after the surrendev of the German forces at Tsurmeb in July, 1915, the starving Ovambos who hitherto had been shut in Ovambo- land by the German troops operating | directly between them and the Union forces, ‘commenced to stream south jout of Ovamboland in search of suc- cor which had been denied them by the Germans. Over 7,000 Ovambos reached our posts in northern dis- !tricts and were immediately placed lin hospitals and depots and every- { thing possible done.to nurse them ) back to health and strength. “Within two months of our pation of the Protectorate, a large | fleet of motor lorries had heen o ganized to convey food to Ovambo- land and to succor those who had been unable to come south and re- | lief measures were in fuil operation Our officers distributed large quanti- ties of foodstuffs and relief parti | were organized to assist Ovambos on the road.
