So Dicky was coming to Lillian's dinner after all! I hugged the thought to my heart when I had a moment’s time to re- flect upon the confidence Lilllan had just given me concerning the astonish- ing steps she had taken to safeguard her *party” from mischievous intru- sion or worse, upon the part of Mrs. Allis, For I was sufficiently acquainted with my husband’'s vagaries of tem- perament to he fairly certain that he would be his normal, light-hearted =elf again, the irritation against me that.had sent him off in such haste in the morning entirely forgotten. Nothing diverts Dicky so much from his own sulkiness as the chance to difficuty, especially if the helping in- volves anything unusual in his experi- ence. He is_generosity itself, and an adventure, especially if it partakes of the bizarre, is like a heéady draught to him. I knew that he would meet me as if nathing whatever had occurred to mar the harmony between us. Unless anger blinda his sense of the fitness of things, Dicky is always most atten- tive to me when we appear in public together. I reolved that I would meet him in like spirit, putting out of my mind the little trick he had played me a few hours before, when a girl at his instigation had called me up with the message that he might not attend Lillian's dinner. “I Was Worried.” He was the first guest to arrive, in spite of the wark Lillilan had delegat- ed hifm to do. I never had seen him look so handsome as he did when he entered her drawing room. Lillian, too, was radiant. I had heard their voiees in quick, low-toned colloquy in the hall, and knew that he must have assured hed as to the bassibility of her dinner being disturbed. “You~ aren't to worry any more,"” Lillian cried tc us all gayly. “Mr. Graham has arranged everything.” I saw Dicky start and look at her, and knew of what he was thinking. I never had known Lillian to call him anything but “Dicky,” of “the Dicky- bird.” Why the formal “Mr. Gra- ham?” The answer was not far from me. Beside her chair, which she had quitted to meet Dicky, Robert Sav- arin staod like a sentinel, waiting foi her to return. The coming back of this man into her life after so many How Dr. REVELATIONS OF A WIFE/VICTORY FOR By ADELE GARRISON . vears had changed Lillian. She no longer did things with the reckless in- souciance which had been her wont, but carefully, circumspectly. I did not like Lillian to act this role of humility, but I consoled myself with the thought that it was but a passing emotianal phase, and that she would, in all probability, soon be herself again. Dicky came straight to me, bowing courteously to Mrs. Durkee and Mr. Savarin, and giving Alfred Durkee s playful slap on the shoulder as he passed. “You're sure you're all right?” he asked with tender solicitude. “That little beast didn't upset you?" 1 My heart warmed to him, as I heard the genuine ring of worried affection in his voice, I forgave my Peter Pan again for the hundredth time—and flashed a loving look at him. “No, I'm perfectly all right. I was worried about you, though. Did you see her at all * “Nary a glimpse. But I've four of the niftiest lads that ever wore a pri- vate detective’'s badge scattered around where they’ll do the most goad.” “Four!” 1 gasped. “Won't that cost Lillian a large sum?” “Lil should worry,” Dicky declared magnificently. “I happened to do the ‘head of this agency a large Tound favor once, ad he's never forgotten. He'd line the street both sides with 'tecs for me, if I wanted them, and it wouldn’t cost me a cent. But when he does anything far me, I always draw him something. He’s perfectly daffy about illustrations, and that evens things up.” The Guests Arrive. A stir at the door saved me from a sarcastic little inquiry as to the num-!} ber of Dicky's illustrations' the head ! of the agency possessed, for this asso- ciation of my husband with private de- tective agencies annoyed me, glad that I had not uttered the com- ment, however, when I looked toward ' the door. I distinctly wanted Dicky to be good natured this evening. The guests, although coming from different directions, had arrived al- most in a body. I saw my Cousin Jack’'s tall figure beside Katherine Sonnot’'s petite one, little Mrs. Lester and her husband, whom I dislike, Mrs. ‘Watrous, a majestic woman, older than Lillian, whom I had met at her home, and who, I know, was a minia- ture painter of note, and—back ot the rest—a man I had thought had gone out of my lie orever.,, Mr. Pettit! GENUINE AMERICAN FILM AT LYCEUM “American—That's All” is the title of the new Triangle play in which Jack Devereaux and Winifred Allen are featured at the Lyceum theater tonight. It is a typical American comedy, in which the hero and the heroine enter the business world with startling results. Jack Devereaux, as the hero, is the son and heir of the pickle king of America. Going against his father's wishes, he marries the girl he loves instead of one of titled aris- tocracy. With the aid of the girl he shows that as a business man he is not to be sneered at and does not stop until he has his Yfather come to listen to his terms, During the filming of ‘‘When Baby Forgot,” the Pathe Gold Rooster play starring Baby Marie Osborne, and to be shown at the Lyceum theater Sun- day night, & number aof children were employed. To keep them all happy and contegted the studio gave a lun- cheon party for the youngsters with Baby Marie at the head of the table. W. A. 8. Douglas, general manager of the concern, acted as host-in-chief. The opening course was cookies and milk. Baby Marie gulped her milk with ell the avidity which childhood and a clear conscience can give “kids” full blast and piped. For Monday and Tuesday Louise Glaum will appear as a heroic vampire in “Love and Justice,” and ‘“Bryant ‘Washburn in “The Man 0 Was Afraid” Wednesday and Thursday. BUSINESS GIRLS LIKE CUTIGURA Because it keeps the hands soft and white, the complexion soothes andheals. Sun, wind and dust all do their best to ruin the complexions of those subjected to them.

R AR A RO SR PPN, CHARTER OAK FAIR OPENS LABOR DAY Planned on a larger scale than ever before! with many new . educational exhibits and amusement features, the big Connecticut Fair and Grand Cir- cuit races, to be held at Charter Oak Park, Hartford, Labor Day week, wilt be more than ever a mammoth en- terprise that will be a credit to the state and the Connecticut Fair asso- ciation, its sponsor. The fair, now in its tenth year, will open as usual on Labor Day (September 3), and- continue day and night up to and in- cluding Friday, September 7, the gates being open from 9:30 a. m. to 11 p. m. President John A. Pilgard and the executive committee have been plan- ning the extensive details of the fair for many months, and their efforts will no doubt bear fruit in the cul- mination of a wonderful exposition that will attract great crowds from all over Connecticut and nearby states as well. Notwithstanding the worid war, the president and directors of the Con- nectjcut fair have planned every feat- ure on a lavish scale, holding to the belief that the exposition is educa- tional and helpful to Connecticut dairy, agricultural and home inter- ests and that it has become a fixture that is eagerly awaited for by its thousands of patrons and it can not be deferred. This year, more than ever, there has been a great stim- ulus to agricultural production, due to the war, and the results of the in- creased efforts of the tillers of the soil will be exhibited at the Connecti- cut fair, showing how this state has answered the nation-wide call for big- ger and better crops. Interspersed with the educational and production side of the fair, the amusement feat- ures that fit in to make a gala week of course have not been neglected and they will be many and diversified. Premiums for the agricultural and other exhibits with the :purses and stakes for the Grand Circuit race pro- ; gram, will aggregate $50,000, a sum sufficient to attract the best in every department. All the standard departments will be featured as usual, and in most of these entries of exhibits surpass the best showing of former years. ERWIN’S “MA]JESTICS” AT GRAND NEXT No matter, it seems, how much good burlesque is furnished an audi- ence, it wants a free interpolation of vaudeville specialties. That's what Fred Erwin, of Fred Erwin's ‘‘Ma- jestics” thinks. Fred Erwin's “Ma- Jestics” is the attraction all next week at the Grand. It is because Mr. Ed- win realizes the public wants lots of vaudeville with is burlesque that he has provided it in generous quanti- tles. La Pine and Emory appear in an original rube number, Paul Cun- ningham and Flgrence Bennett have a fascinating act they call “In Song I was, | Limited, Ogdensburg, New York, THE CANADIANS Boston Man Tells His Experience With | “Fruita-tives”,—Now Made In USA. | i MR, JAS.

And it is evident that they consider the big fourteen reel double feature show that they saw, a good thing. Starting off with interesting views of up-to-the-minute happen- ings in the world at large as seen by the Pathe News, the next picture was the demanded return of the imm tal Theda Bara, in her greatest six reel success, “Under Two Flags,” which was taken from the novel of the same name. It is a remarkable tribute to Miss Bara’s art that over half the people that were present yes- JAS.J.ROYALL. | R S T N T T P T THE LAST WEEK OF OUR MID-SUMMER RUG SALE If you are going to need anything in floor coverings in the near future you should not neglect this great Money Saving Sale.

The | story, which is fast becoming as much ! of a-literary institution as “L'no]oé Tom's Cabin,” is too well known to require repetition, but/the Fox pre- ! sentation of it ends a new charm and interest. The scenery, particularly of the Algerian desert during a sand storm, leaves nothing to be desired in the way of realism, and Thedu Bara's impersonation of Cigarette, the daughter of the regiment is one of the best things that she has ever done, before or since. The other feature is “The Brand of Satan,” a five-reel World drama with the most unusual plot that has ever been screened. Montagu Love, the star, plays the part of a young Parisian who is afflicted with a disease that gives him a dual personality. On cer- tain occasions he is the prosecuting | attorney, and at other times he he- comes a notorious murderer, Lazard. Throughout the picture there is con- | stant warfare between his two selves, of which he is ignorant, and the de- nouement is an example of what clever stage-craft can accomplish. In the sixth chapter of ‘“The Fatal Ring” Pearl White runs new risks that out- class any of her previous perform- apces. There is one thrili in particu- lar, concerning a caldron of boiling | oil, that is in a class of its own for excitement. There will be a contin- uous show today.

Catarrh being greatly influenced by constitutional conditions requires constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is taken internally and thru the Bloo¢ on the Mucous Surtaces of the System thereby de- stroying the foundation of the disease, giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting na- ture in doing its work.
