NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 8, 1017, e | - — ol REVELATIONS e A e T e e ST e OF A WIFE By ADELE GARRISON How Robert Savarin Disclosed to Madge the Depth of His Love for Lillian Underwood. 1 seated myself mechanically upon the coping of the rustic bridge near Marvin at Robert Savarin’s request to listen to his story. I was glad to sit down, for my knees were tremb- ling beneath me. I had not realized how great had been my hidden fear that the delicate compass needle gov- erning Robert Savarin's newly re- gained mentality had been swerved from its course, until the calmness of his voice and manner re-assured me. “I'm not n man to beat about the bush, Mrs. Graham,” the artist began, looking down at me with a grim line about his expressive mouth which told me that the man was greatly moved by some hidden emotion. “And 1 don’t imagine that it will be news to you when I tell you that I loved Mrs. Underwood in the long ago days when I first knew her.” He paused if for an answer. gave it promptly. “I have thought of it, certainly,” T repHed. “I wish I could paint Lilllan Gale for you as she was when I first knew her,” he went on, and every inflec- tion of his, every shade of his expres- sion breathed the love he had had for Lillian so long ago, which I was sure he still felt for her. *Of course, she was the prettiest thing imaginable, as anyone who looks at her now can see. And she was such an eager, frank, wide-eyed young creature, with the sacred fire of ambition consuming the body and soul of her.” His words tumbled over each other as if he couldn’t ger them out fast enough. It was as if he were trying to utter years of repressed passion and admiration in a moment. “Of Course I Ioved Her.” “It isn’t in my power to express all her fresh, girlish enthusiasm meant to me at that time” he went on. “She came into my life when I was much discouraged in:my work, and in ald- ing her with what small effort I could, I found my own enthusiasm come back to me. Her freshness of viewpoint startled me out of the rut of despondency in which I had been traveling. “Of course I loved her. I don’t think any man thrown in daily con- tact with her as I was when she stu- died in my studio, could have helped falling in love witth her. But as [ look back on it now in the light of a later experience, there was rever- ence, almost worship, mingied with my love. It was as different a feel- ing from the mad infatuation that later ruined my life, as heaven is re- moved from hell.” His eyes gleamed with excitement as he referred to the woman who had sent him into 15 years of mental darkness, and 1 saw his hands shake as with the pal I hastened to bring his mind back to Lilllan, and in my perturbation said the first thing which came into my mind. ‘Why in the world didn’t you her of your feeling for her?” I regretted the question as soon as it left my lips, for a look of poignant regret overspread Robert Savarin’s expressive face. But the excited gleam left his eyes, his hands ceased trembling, and he answered my ques- tion quietly. “ I Have Wondered.” “Because T was years older she, and was an artist without any material success with which to care for a woman as I wished to care for her. Besides, my disappointments had made me morose, irritable, no companion for @ fresh-hearted child. So I closed my lips and thanked God that she never suspected my feeling for her was any deeper than her care- less, girlish friendship for me.” I could have cried out with the un- conscious irony of his words. “Care- less girlish friendship”—this was the way he had imagined Lillian regard- ed him in those long past studio days. And she had made a girlish idol of him and had hidden it in her heart of hearts, fearing that the man she adored—who she was sure thought twice about her—might gain some him. “But since T have learned of the tragedy that life has meant to her.” the artist went on, “I have wondered it it wasn't a hideous mistake 1 made at that time. Surely even a mar- riage in which the love would have been only upon my side would have been better for her than the lot that was hers How I longed to tell him that if Lilllan had guessed he loved her she would have been happy beyond me! a I tell than never | inkling of her feeling toward | ure. But that was Lilllan's secret. If the time ever came, for which there seemed no glimmer of hope now, when Lillian should be free to show this man what was in her heart, it ought to be from her lips alone that he should hear it. “WOMAN WHO DARED” AT FOX'S THEATER One of the biggest sensations that the motion picture industry has ever witnessed is the big seven-part drama, “The Woman Who Dared,” which s the feature of the Kox program for today and tomorrow. The star of this production is the charming Boattrix Michelena, who is well known for her cersatility in dramatic roles. The power and vividness that she puts into her work is & by-word among the less celebrated of her profession, and when it is said *“The Woman Who Dared” is the biggest and best picture that she has ever made, it follows logically that there have been few productions that can compare with it. The picture tells the story of a woman—a different kind of woman, one to whom convention and the opinions of her fellow-kind mean nothing. She is daring in more ways than one, and every foot of the seven thousand that make up the pic- ture is packed with unusual incident and dramatic situation. *“The Woman Who Dared” will only be shown once in the evening, and there will be no advance in price. Another adventure of the popular gentleman scamp, Stngaree, will also be shown, as will the latest issue of the American News Weekly. Consid- erable attention has been aroused by the announcement of. next Monday's feature, which will be return of the lathletic and handsome hero Dustin Farnun, who will be seen in his latest release, “Durand of The Badlands,” one of those strong stories of primi- tive passions and man-to-man fights. “DAYS IN DIXIE” POPULAR NOVELTY Giving an exhibition of the manner in which the negroes, young and old, make merry in the South, a company of twelve colored entertainers is pre- senting “Days in Dixie” as a feature of the Keeney show this weck. The act just brought to the East after successtul tour of the western circuit is an exceptionally entertaining pot pourri of mirth, melody and comedy and it makes a very favorable appeal to the audience. The songs are well | sclected and are rendered in the usual ! style of the ragtime singer. The ne- ! groes are good dancers and their | Terpsichorean specialties are partic- ularly popular with the Keeney audi- cuces. | Tafcatt, a “lone” performer, gives | a series of acrobatic feats that show | exceptional skill and daring. Fields and Hanson, minstrel entertainers of an old school, give a repertory of songs and stories that are favorably received. In addition to the vaudeville there are the regular Universal releases and some good features. Tonight and Thursday there will be an episode in “The Voice on the Wire” while on Friday and Saturday “The Neglected Wife” will be continued. STORY OF NORTH ON LYCEUM SCREEN 1 A story of the north, with its beau- tiful snow and tall pines should be welcome in this kind of weather. Such a picture is the “Land of Long Shad- ows” featuring Jack Gardner, today and tomorrow. The story is a par- ticularly strong one and is one of the finest that could be selected for the “Lyceum All Star Week.” The Lyceum has long promised its patrons new seats. They have now arrrived and a gang of workmen are busy nights assemblyng them and making their installation as they pro- ceed. It is expected that they will be put down at the rate of one hundred a night, and no performance willl be interrupted. Friday and Saturday the famous Willfam S. Hart will be at the Ly- {ceum in his latest photoplay, “Wolf Lowry.” His fame is widespread, and his ability as an actor can be said to equal four or five of any “stars” pre- sented in many other theaters. During this ‘Lyceum all star week" there will be no advance in prices. area remed% which quickl, conditions. q Y and so renew the strength, A few doses of these worls When Tired and Nervous If the end of the day finds you weary or irri- table,with achingheadand frayed nerves,you need something to tone and strengthen the system.

McHarg, has fled with the child from her home here, to seek refuge where the child will be safe. The flight followed what were believed to be several efforts made to get the daughter, Marion, who is six years old. Miss Marion McHarg and Paymas- ter George R. Venable, U. 8. N., then stationed at Portsmouth, N. H., were married seven years ago in the big McHdrg home, on Strawberry Hill here. It was one of the events of that society season. At that time it was understood that Mr. McHarg, who had been a director in the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad and in numerous banks and other corporations, had settled $1,000,- 000 upon his daughter. A few years later the couple parted and about a year ago Mrs. Venable obtained a divorce on the allegation of cruelty. Paymaster Venable did not contest the action. ‘Soon after Mr. McHarg made an allowance of $15,- 000 a year for his daughter. Mrs. Venable had purchased a large piece of property in North Stamford and was developing it as a country estate. She and the child and several servants lived in a large bungalow she and in the\ outbuildings lived John Brophy, chief gardener, | and several of his assistants. One night about ten days ago Brophy found a stranger prowling about the grounds near the residence and stopped him. The man either —— SIDE TALKS BY RUTH A Special I want to tell you about a garden. Doubtless you have heard a good deal about gardens this summer. But this is a very special garden. In ‘'a way there was nothing re- markable about it and in another way it whs quite remarkable. Some folks may find it commonplace be- cause they have had similar experi- ences and other folks, not having boys in their family, may not be in- terested on that account. But for the sake of those who have boys and haven’t this kind of a garden I want to tell you about it. (And also for the sake of neighbors of gardenless boys). The Father Didn’t Butt In. This garden was a boy’'s garden par excellence. It belonged abso- lutely to him. His father had a gar- den of his own and he showed the boy some things (later the boy showed him some things) but he didn’t butt in to the boy's garden with any bossing or helping. That was one important point. An- other was this: When the plan was made his father said, “Now doing things alone.is work and doing things with someone i{s fun. We'll let the boy pick out two other boys and let them all three have the garden to- gether. The Other Boys Were the Best Feat- ure. His mother looked a bit doubtful CAMERON Garden about having all those boys around the place but his father overruled her doubts. The other two boys were duly invited and proved the very best feature of the scheme. It was fun for the -youngsters to all get out and grub together whereas it would have been the hardest kind of work for anyone to leave the rest playing ball and go out and dig by himself. Also it stimulated rivalries. And best of | all, perhaps, it taught cooperation and team work. He Outstripped His Father. Another somewhat unusual feature about this boy’'s garden was that it outstripped the grown-up garden. Junijor was so much interested that he went to several lectures on gar- dening, and having youth’s willing- ness to try the new, he trled out some of the methods suggested by the lecturer and actually outstripped his father in early production of several vegetables. The boys are now cooperating in marketing their produce and getting a practical lesson in bookkeeping, be- sides earning (and saving) some real money. And the nation’s stock of food is increased. Ever so slightly? Yes, but what was it we used to write In our copybooks about little drops of water, etc.? was half witted or pretended to be so and Brophy escorted him down the road half a mile and let him go. Man’s Face at Window. A few nights later Mrs. Venable and a governess were putting little Marion to bed when the child cried out to her mother:— N “There'sa man’s face at the win- dow.” Mrs. Venable and the governess looked and saw a man peering in at the open window. While the child and her governess screamed Mrs. Venable ran into her own bedroom and obtained a pistol. Running back into Marlon’s bedroom, Mrs. Venable bravely went to the window and looked out. She saw a man running across the lawn and she fired five shots at him. Apparently no bullet hit him. He continued running and escaped. | Brophy and other gardeners searched the grounds, but found no one. On two occasions after that strange men were seen about the place. Mrs. Venable had engaged a detective from an agency, and when he approached the men they ran. Mrs. Venable be- came convinced, it was said, that an effort was being made to kidnap Mar- ion, and a few days ago she hurriedly packed a few things and left her home | with the child. Thelr refuge is being kept a secret, but their flight was sb precipitate that Mrs. Venable neglect- ed to take with her jewels valued at $10,000 that had been on a dressing table. Prowler Escapes by Window. Late in the night of the day that the mother and child fled Brophy was awakened by a dog barking and saw a light moving ahout one wing of the bungalow The gardener called two of his 4 stants and they hurried to the house. Through a wndow they could see a man moving about, light- ing his way with a candle. Brophy and his men went to a rear door, to which he had a key, and opened it. They ran into the house, hoping to ¢ catch the man, but he escaped through a window. They fired several shots while pursuing him, but he reached the road, jumped into a waiting au- tomobile and disappeared. The jewels that Mrs. Venable had left behind and a chest containing all her silver had not been disturbed, and that convinced the household that the object of the intruder-was to kidnap Marion. Apparently he did not know that the child had been taken away, that day. He had obtained entrance to the house by forcing a side win- dow. Friends of Mrs. Venable said she had expressed a fear that Marion would be stolen and held until a large sum was pald for her deliverance. The court that gave a divorce decree to Mrs. Venable also gave exclusive cus- tody of the child to her. Menu for Tomorrow Breakfast.
