To marion that had been the crowning point of the even- ing, and we all smiled at the pretty, cager picture the little thing made as she handed us our cards. Lillian had arranged her table with her usual skill. She herself, of course, had Robert Savarin as her dinner partner, and she had asked Dicky to take the place of the host, with Mrs. Watrous at his right hand. Frank Lester took in Mrs. Durkee, Dr. Pettit, Mrs. Lester; Katherine Sonnot fell to Alfred Durkee, while just opposite them Jack and I were sttaioned. The seating arrangements, and in fact everything else, however, were forgotten when we caught out first ‘glimpse of Lillian’s dining room, which had been carefully closed until | Betty's summons. Until I saw it I had not known that { Lillian had had the rocm entirely re- | modelled. She had evidently been keeping it a surprise for her first { dinner against its new background. The ceiling was beamed, the floor dark polished oak, the walls wains- coted in the same sombre wood. Where Lillian had secured her work- men I don’t know, but it was a most wonderful refectory ecffect that met our eyes. The tables were of the type one sees in old pictures of monastery re- fectories, and their only coverings were strips of tapestry-like cloth with xquisitely embroidered bands hang- | | THIS LASSIE SIMPLY LOVES NEW SWEATER Why Lilllan Underwood Invited Dr. Pettit to the Dinner. What was Dr. this Lillian Robert Savarin? This is the question that beat an- grily against my brain as I mechanic- ally rose to greet the guests who had come into Mrs. Underwood’s beauti- ful white-and-crimson living room. Dr.Pettit had no possible connec- tion with Robert Savarin or with the world of art, and he had not the close kinship and friendship which had guided Lillian's invitation to my cousin, Jack Bickett, and his flancee, Katherine Sonnot. And Lillian must have known that he had been the un- derlylng cause of more than one un- pleasant scene between my husband and myself. Why had she done it? The anwser to my.question had to walt, however, for in another instant I was engaged in the general greet- ings which welcomed the new guests and marked their presentation to Robert Savarin. Mrs. Watrous, who, I knew from Lillian, had known Robert Savarin' in the old days, was soon deep in remi- niscences with him, leaving the rest of the guests to their own devices. Jack and Katherine, of course, came straight to me, and in my delight at seeing them I had the chance for only a perfunctory bow to the young physician, to whom iittle Mrs. Durkee | was talking. | But before we were called into the.| P& Pelow the edges of 'Ee ‘;‘h}”" t:““ dining room Lillian drew me aside for | \Were but fosether in the form of a S etter T.

She thinks an awful lot about her health. I think she’d be better off if she'd ‘spudge up’ a bit and not think so much about herself. So T heard one woman character- | ize another the other day. The woman characterized had been visiting the other and had had the misfortune to have an attack of a chronic malady during the visit. She 1s One of Those Terribly Healthy People. The woman who did the character- Izing is one of those people who are dorn of hardy stock, have abundant vitality and think it “all nonsense’ for other people not to be as abound- ingly healthy as themselver. This trick of fancying that the other fellow is spleeny when he does not feel up to the mark is one of the commonest human frailtfes. ‘We know he isn't well, but we can't help feeling that if we had the same allment we would stand up under it i better, would throw it off more bravely, would not act so depresged (and depressing). Why, we can re- member perfectly well times when we felt just as bad as he does and wouldn't give in to fit. Maybe He’s Bearing Up Wonderfully. And there's the rub.

How on the face of the earth can we know T once had a great lesson in this which has helped me ever since. Some vears ago a relative of mine with whom I was living had a bad attack of tonsilitis, a disease with which neither of us had had any ex- perience until then. She was com- pletely floored by it. For awhile I nursed her willingly and dtd her share of the work, and then I be- gan to wonder if she weren't a little bit spleeny because she dldn't seem to have more ambition to get well, didn’t try to make herself eat, didn’t push herself a little harder. Yes, I'm not proud of it, but to tell the truth such were my hidden feelings. I Found Myself in Her Place. And then the germ reached me and I also succumbed. I also felt that deadly lethargy, that miserable iner- tia that hange like a weight upon one's every movement, almost on one's every thought. And then I knew how unjust I had been. And that is why I am more care- ful nowadays how I adjudge people spleeny, more sceptical when I hear other people pass that judgment. know we felt just as bad? How do we know just how he does feel. as Nan, a leader of Bohemia, covets that which she has not within herself —culture and refinement. When a newcomer to her little world arrives, who possesses these things her sudden savage interest causes eves to flash and the only real affection he has ever known is awakened. Charles Gunn, who plays the role of a brilliant young lawyver who sinks to the lowest depths by the drug route, ably supports Miss Glaum in this drama. The Lyceum weekly shows scenes of interesting current events. ~Among them being the departure of the fa- mous 69th. regiment of New York for camping grounds. For Wednesday and Thursday the Lyceum presents a pic- ture for everyone to see. At the pres- ent time when the topic of the day is “Are you in the draft?”’ Here is a story of a yvoung man who was afraid of the draft. See Bryant Washburn in “The Man Who Was Afraid.” It is a picture the family should see. This feature has made quite a hit everywhere it has played and has been baoked as a special attraction for the Lyceum patrons, i CELBRATED STAR IN KEENEY LEADER Margaret Illington, one of Amer- jca’s greatest emotional actresses, will make her initial bow as a screen star before the Keeney patrons dur- ing the last three days of the current week when she will appear in a Lasky picturization of the drama, “Sacrifice.” The picture is said to be one of the best productions bearing the Lasky name and it is making a | tremendous hit. Charming Marie Doro heads the cast which will be seen in the Irch- man production, “Heart's Desire” to- night, Tuesday and Wednesday. Doro is recognized as Frohman's most popular stars and film dramas in which she is seen are always big drawing cards. Wednesday and Thursday there will be a new episode in “The Voice on the Wire” and on Friday and Sat- urday “The Neglected Wife” will be i continued. There is no necessity for a pot to boil furiously in order to cook the contents. It will cook just as well if it just boils, and this can be done over Miss | a very small flame. [ GRAND HARTFORD TEL, C. 1026 ALL WEEK Irwin’s Majestics MATINEE DAILY “THE SOUL OF SATAN" AT FOX’S TODAY 5 When William enougfh of an actress’ to trust her with the stellar role of a ten-reel production, that ought to be sufficient indication that she is one of the biggest drawing cards in the profession, and that is just what he has done with Gladys Brockwell, who comes to Fox’s theater today and to- morrow in a five-part drama usual, “The Soul of Satan.” Brockwell is the star of the gigantic prison-reform picture. “The Honor System,” which, incidentally, will be shown in this city at an early date. Her: present vehicle, “The Soul of Satan,” is an extraordinary story of a woman’s temptations, and is quite the best production that has come out of the Fox studios recently.
