It is a picture that is des- tined to be misunderstood and unap- Ppreciated by some, who are not suf- ficiently far-sighted or worldly-wise to catch the deep underlying signifi- cance of the theme, but it carries a powerful punch and a message that will not soon be forgotten. Miss Su- ratt steps out of the type of char- acterization which we have been ac- customed to expect of her, and plays a role in which she has more star- tling opportunities than ever for ex- ploiting her remarkable dramatic abilities. A rapid-fire Fox comedy, in which Tom Mix, the well-known dare-devil of the films, puts over.a few brand new comedy thrills, is a great laugh- getter. A peculiar coincidence is the fact that Mix played the part of the sheriff in “Durand of the Bad-lands,"” which was here Monday, which is & pretty good proof of this young man’s versatility. An exciting adven- ture of Stingaree, and the American News Weekly are also on the bill. Tomorrow brings in the big special double-feature fourteen reel show. Montagu Love will be seen in the ‘World picture unusual, ‘“The Brand of Satan,” a new kind of Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde plot, and the universal fa- vorite, Theda Bara, returns by the insistent request of Fox patrons in her most striking six-reel drama, ‘“Under Two Flags.” In addition there will also be seen the current chapter of the increasingly popular serial, “The Fatal Ring.” Women as well as men ary made miserable by kidney and bladder trouble. Thou= sands recommend Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great Kidney medicine. At druggists in large and medfum size bottles. You may recelve a sample size bottle by Parcel Post, also pamphlet telling about it.

Beauty of fabric overshot with ‘wreaths of beaded flowers in natural colors is the note struck here—a flesh colored georgette crape, with Lanvin collar and wide sash of flesh colored ribbon. VAUDEVILLE SHOW IS FINDING FAVOR Keeney's is offering this vaudeville program of merit and one to which the patrons are giving well merited recognition The show is without question the best variety list which the management has presenged to the public in many months and the theater-goers of the city are giving it much favorable ad- vertising. There is some distinctive features about every act that is bound to appeal to novelty-seeking audiences and the entire bill should satisfy the most discriminating. “The film feature for-the remainder of the week will be the Lasky pic- turization of “The Girl at Home,” in- troducing Vjvian Martin and Jack Pickford at the head of a cast. “The Voice on the Wire” will be shown tonight and tomorrow and Saturday there will be a new chapter in “The Neglected Wife.” week & exceptional Menu ior Tomorrow Breakfast.

If you suffer from backache— From bladder disorders— Any curable disease of the kidneys. Use a tested kidney remedy. Doan’s Kidney Pills have been test- ed by thousands. New Britain people testify. Can you ask more convincing proof of merit? Miss K. Welch, 40 Sexton St., New Britain, says: “I was troubled ' con- siderably by dull pains across the small of my back and I think they were brought on by my work as I had to sit down all day. It was a contin- ual, dull pain and made me feel tired and worn out. Doan’s Kidney Pills cured me and I have had faith in them ever since and always speak highly of them.” corn cut 60c, at all dealers. Co., Mfgrs,, Foster-Milburn Buffalo, N. Y. capable | e A e e IREVELATIONS Why Mrs. Durkee Tearfully Called Herself “A Horrid Cat. What do you suppose she's going to do?” Little Mrs. Durkee, round-eyed with terrified Wonder, whispered the words to me a5 We took off our wraps in the roam “like the heart of a rose,” which Lillian had fitted up for her baby girl in the heartbreaking years when the | chila had been kept from her. Since Marion’s restoration. to her mother I had never crossed the thresh-l hold of the room without a warm little feeling of thankfulness at my heart that it was no longer a shrine tenanted | only by heartbroken prayers, but a living human habitation. I knew that each night Lilllan slept with her little daughter in the rose draped bed and rejoiced that after so long a sepa- ration she had the chance to “cuddle’ the child for whom she had so poig- nantly longed. 4 “I haven’t the slightest idea,” T re- turned, a bit untruthfully, for a vague suspicion of Lilllan's purpose had crossed my mind. “Wouldn’t it be exciting if she sent for the police?” Mrs. Durkee queried, a spat of color glowing in either cheek, her eves dancing. I saw that all the child naturé in her, the little girl who had never grown up, was on tiptoe for anything that promised to be unusual. “That would be a novelty even for Mrs. Underwood, to give a dinner with po- lice officers back of the guests’ chairs.” Inconsistent Mrs. Durkee. “What utter nonsense!" I spoke sharply, for I imagined there was a tinge of malice in her merriment. “In the first place Mrs. Underwood wouldn’t do such a thing, and in the second place, even if she were lunatic enough to request it, no policeman would come on such an errand. “After all, we can prove nothing against Mrs. Allis. Mr. Savarin saw her looking at him through the car window. She spoke to me at the By ADELE GARRISON Hoyed at her persistency in her absurd OF A WIFE her hope that there'd be something bizarre about the evening’'s entertain- ment. “Why, don’t you remember we made up our minds that the person who fired the shot Wwas the man who escaped from the asvlum and roamed the streets of Crest Haven, shooting off a revolver?” 1 asked the _question with as innocent an air as I could manage. «1 Can Depend on You.” “I remember that Mrs. Underwood didn’t believe that version of the thing,” Mrs:. Durkee replied, setting her pretty childish mouth in an ab-* stinate line, “and I just believe she's going to have the palice here tonight. So there now!” “There evidently is nothing more to be said,” I rejoined, smiling at her, although secretly I was rtather an- theory. I could npt forbear adding a caution. “You won’t hint to Mrs. Underwood that you think she is going to send for the police?"” Mrs. Durkee drew herself up her full height of less than five feet. “I trust I know how to behave in public,” she said with such an air of offended dighity that I did not know whether to be sorry or amused. “Of course you do,” I said, sooth- ingly ,Jaying my hand caressingly on her shoulder. ‘“Forgive me, won’t you, for asking such a question, but I'm a little upset myself tonight.” The little woman’'s eyes filled -with quick tears. She is the most impul- sive, warmest-hearted little creature one could find, and her faults are all surface ones. She’s incapable of a premeditated unkindness. “It is you who should forgive me,’ she said. “I'm just a horrid cat to bother you With my nonsense when you're so worried. But I do hope that woman won't trouble you any more. to Ne ws For T. heatergoers and Women Readers e e e MORE STARS SHINE AT THE LYCEUM Tonight the Lyceum presents Mabel Trunnelle and Robert Conness in a very interesting picture away from the ordinary run of phatoplays. Cub- an legendary never provided a more thrilling or interesting story than “The Ghost of Old Morro.” To get the cor- rect atmosphere permeating the gtory, | the Thomas A. Edison studious sent an | all-star cast to Cuba, which as the title | implies, was made chiefly in and | about Old Marro Castle, the historic | pile of granite on the outskirts of | Havana. i Also on the program is Baby McAl- lister in ‘Do Children Count " ar other interesting feature. The Pathe ! Weekly shows the new national army camps, also a very interesting inven- tion of a western man who has co structed a practical wireless subm: rine, and many ather current events | of the day. For Friday and Saturday | the Lyceum offers another of the Tr angle features with Jack Devereaux | and Winifred Allen in ‘“‘American, That's AlL” It is a comedy of youth, love, and business, showing the trou- bles of a young college graduate falls into when he opposes his father's wishes. On the same bhill is the Mack Dennett-Keystone camedy with Charles Murray in “The Betrayal of Maggie.” The white knit sweater will clean easily in the following way: Put into a flour bag equal parts of flour and salt, then put the sweater in and shake well. No ironing will be necessary after the process. $100 Reward, $100 The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages, and that is catarrh. Catarrh being greatly influenced by constitutional conditions requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally The cowardly beast—T wish I had the wringing of her neck!” I laughed. I couldn’t help it. Any- station tonight; simply saying, ‘It's no use trying to fool me, you see. You're only wasting your time trying,’ and then we saw her go past this house in a taxi and look at it closely. Imagine going to the palice with a story like that, asking for protection!" “But didn’t she look through the window at Marion out at Marvin, and then fire that pistol shot through the glass at you?” I could have laughed aloud at the little woman’s inconsistency. At Mar- vin she had ridiculed the theory that Mrs. Allis had fired the pistol shot through the glass, vet here she was advocating it because it bolstered up thing more incangruous than little Mrs. Durkee's appeararce and the bloodthirsty wish to which she had just given utterance could not be imagined. “Don’t you ever think I couldn't,” she said, tossing her head. “But I won’t mention her or police, or any- thing unpleasant again tonight. But I do wish I knew what Mrs. Uuder- wood was gaing to do.” We had come out into the empty living room again. As if in answer to our question. Lillian’s high-pitched voice floated in from the back hall. “All right, Dicky, 1 can depend on vou.” } Fads and Fashions There is a fancy for tailored un- derwear to wear with the severe tMl- ored outer dresses. A crown of white pique and a brim of black satin, makes one of the very prettiest of hats. Dinner gowns with high backs, low fronts and transparent sleeves serve for all ordinary evening occasions. Tassels have lost much of their rank in fashion, almost all belts and girdles end frankly without trmming. The new pique is & soft light ma- terial which comes in all the soft, charming shades. Paris is wearing pique now. Broad sash belts will be seen new autumn dresses, and often belts will show colored fringe embroideries. in these and So long as the crown and brim of a hat are of different materials, it is fashionable, no matter what the materials may be. New blouses buttons in the back. Iiats have very little trimming. Pique frocks are trimmed with fur. Leather is very smart on tallorea coats. Coat collars are gamning in height. The tailored suit has returned its own. to ‘Wide belts are not smart at present. The simpler the dress the more youthtul, Metal printed velvets are promised for fall. Household Notes i No one meal need be “balanced” but the three meals of each day should be—that is. should have one part protein, three parts fat, and six parts carbohydrates. Sponge ribbon and silk with a mix- ture of equal parts of alcohol and highly rectiefid benzine. Great care should be taken to do this away from the fire or gas burning. If you keep your clothespins in small grape baskets with a wire hook, and then place the hook over the clothes line, pushing it before you as you pin, it will save a lot of stooping. There are many times when the flame can be turned out in the gas oven and a cake or biscuits will finish baking in the heat that is retained in J the oven. SUPERIOR SHOW AT GRAND THIS WEEK No matter what one looks for most in a burlesque show he is sure to find it if he goes to the Grand theater, Hartford, where James E. Cooper's Roseland Girls are the attraction. If he wants to see pretty girls, he will see a superior beauty chorus; if he wants good music, he will hear musical program of unusual excel- lence interpreted by a high-grade vocal organization; if he wants plenty of good, wholesome comedy, he will strike a very gold-mine of comedy, put over in that inimitable way that Solly Ward, the chief comedian, is famous for. Thrown in for good measure are many specialties and fea- tures which are always coming up to surprise the audiences. Billy X. Wells has furnished two extremely funny burlesques entitled “Putting It Over” and *“A Whirl of the Golden West.” a To make a cat stay in a new home, rub its forepaws with butter. a pro- ceeding that is said to destroy the scent of the old home. This is an old English custom. e 5 P ey { Few Dropsona i Comn or Callus % Instantly stops pain and they lift right off with fingers. H i L PRSI This tiny bottle holds the wonder of wonders.
