But I contented. myself with saying caustically: “Why, of course it is! Dr. Braith- waite has given great responsibility into her hands, and she.is a part of the war service. She is in no way her own mistress, and those who love her ought to realize this and make it easier for her.” ‘““No doubt,” Jack bowed coldly and left us. I saw by his eyes as he did 80 that his resentinent against Kath- erine now included me also, but that troubled me not at all. I turned back to her and felt a little glow in my heart at the warmth of gratitude in her eyes. Jake Evades Madge. “Thank you so much for that, Madge,” she whispered. ““Oh, my dear, 1 do need you so! I have so much to tell you.” “What is the very first minute you can come to me?” I asked practically. “The day after tomorrow,” she an- swered. ‘It will be a late afternoon train, though.” . “Come any time, day or night, you wish,” I sald lovingly. “In the mean- time I am going after that cousin of mine, and read the riot act to hm. He needs it.” But Jack evidently had no mind for any argument with me. He attached himself to Dicky like a limpet, and I couldn’t ask him away without di- rectly asking fiim for a word alone. This I would not risk doing, for while my husband ard my brother-cousin were now the best of friends, yet U couldn’t forget that there had been a time, and not so long ago either, when Dicky saw red every time he thought of Jack Bickett, so jealous was he of our affection for each other. So I had to leave Lilllan’s without the chance of another word with him. He took Katherine away when the Lesters, Mrs. Watrous and Dr. Pettit went. The Durkees, Robert Savarin, Lillian, Dicky and I gathered before the living room fire after they left to congratulate each other upon the success of Lilllan’s scheme to pre- vent Mrs. Allis from maliciously in- truding upon her dinner in honor of Robert Savarin. Mrs. Durkee Chatters. “So-far, so good,” Lillian said when Dicky came in from a trip outdoors and reported that the private detec- tives Lillian had employed to guard Ladies! Why Keep Comns? Lift a corn or callus right off without one bit of pain. Yes! You truly can lift oft every hard corn, soft corn or corn between the toes, as well as hardened callouses on bottom of feet, without one bit of pain. A genius in Cincinnati discovered freezone. It is an ether compound and tiny bottles of this magic fluld can now be had at any drug store for a few cents. Apply several drops of this freezone upon a ten- der, aching corn or a cal- lous. Instantly all sore- ness disappears and short- ly you will find the corn or callous so shriveled and loose that you lift it off with the fingers. You teel no pain while apply- i freezone or after- Just think! No more corns or callouses to tor- ture you and they go with- out causing one twinge of pain or soreness. Keep a tiny bottle on the dresser and never let a corn or cal- lous ache twice. her house had seen nothing suspicious all evening. “But when you leave here, have the taxl drop you at one of the subway stations between here and Brooklyn bridge. Then go over to Brooklyn and take the Long Island train from that terminal instead of the Pennsylvania.” “Nifty idea, Lil!” Dicky comment- ed. *“But suppose the Allis party de- cides she will give the Brooklyn'ter- minal the ‘once over? ” “She won't’” Lillian returned in- cisively. “I know her kind. She's the type of New Yorker who doesn’t know Brooklyn exists, or anything else outside of Broadway and her own particular vicious underground circle.” Her tone was wearily contemptuous with more than a little bitterness in it, and I knew that much of it was because of the fact that the woman of whom she was speaking had once called Robert Savarin ‘“husband,” and had caused his loss of sanity for 15 years. : “You're the doctor.” Dicky rose and went to the telephone. “If we're going over to Brooklyn we’'ll have to start earlier.” I tried my best so to engage the rest in conversation while we waited for the taxi that Lillian and Robert Savarin would have a few moment to themselves. The artist had told me that he was going back to his home in the Catskills the next day, instead of staying longer, and I knew the rea- son was his fear that he might be- tray to Lillian his love for her which he considered hopeless. But fate, in the person of little Mrs. Durkee, thwarted me. She kept up a constant chatter which though pretty and amusing nearly drove me | frantic, so anxious was I that Lil- lan shouldn’t be compelled to say good-by to Robert Savarin before the rest of us.. I didn’t care to have any- one of the little group see any trace of emotion in her face; when she should learn that he was going so soon. I had meant to tell her, but my father's letter had put everything else out of my head. Evidently he had told her himself, however, some time during the even- ing, and when she bade us all good- by, her farewell to him bade us all good-by, her farewell to him held only the extra friendliness one would naturally expect from a hostess to her guest of honor. But the eyes of Robert Savarin as he looked down at her upturned face held something that made my heart ache long afterward. CHARTER OAK SHOWS BIGGER AND BETTER More and better free shows than ever have been booked for the big Connecticut fair at Charter Oak park, Hartford, Labor Day week, to be pre- sented btwen the heats of the Grand Circuit races, and also under the glare of the calcium at night on the stage and in the field opposite the grand- stand. The galaxy will include the Flying Moores, America’'s premier monarchs of the air, who present a most daring and thrilling performance. The Montrose troupe of acrobats. men and women, one of the best of its kind now before the public, will also be seen in original and novel feats, The Hawaiian band, for talented instrumentalists and vocalists, will be heard in the latest Hawaiian song hits and musical numbers. Rube Haskell, the famous Yankee rube, much sought after by all fair managements, has been secured for the Connecticut fair, and will enter- tain in his own inimitable way. Another free attraction will be fur- nished by Stewart and Mercer, acro- batic aerial performers, who com- bine thrills and laughs with their dar- ing aerial feats on the flying trapeze and flying rings. Harry Henry, ‘the big man with the big baritone voice,’ as he is ap- propriately called, is one of the best open-air singers in America. Little Miss Harper, a dainty and skillful artist, will present a number of the latest dances as one of the stage acts. More gorgeous than ever will be the fireworks displays each night, as the contract with the Connecticut Fire- works company is on a big scale this year. ‘Women as well &8s men ary made miserable by kidney and bladder trouble.

Katterjohn and produced under the supervision of Thomas H. Ince, which will be shown at the Lyceum theater, Friday and Saturday. ToO pass from the obscur- ity of Bumpkinville to bright-lighted fame on Broadway in three days and three nights is the dizzying sensation [ that Ray undergoes as the Clodhop- per. He becomes a celebrity of lob- ster square largely by virtue of his, eccentric dress and his ability to exe- cute a curious dance. The mose spec- | tacular scene of this Ince production is the New York roof garden with its runway over the heads of the audi- ence, its candle lighted tables sur- rounded by ultra fashionable women and their male companions, and a Jazz band playng the frantic music to which Ray clodhops about stage. After their performance the guests also try the “hop” on the cleared floor space. The gawky coun- try boy, who was turned from home by a penurious father, earns enough money to save the same father from financial disaster and to gain the con- trolling stock in the village bank.

Sue Wilde has ‘“kicked out” of the sanctimonious asmos- phere with which her venerable father Dr. Hubbell Harkness Wilde, has surrounded her and is luxuriating in life which knows no morality, nor goal except that where the limelight shines brightest. She is an actress in one of those problem plays which scoffs at conventionality. the | | “THE SPY” BOOKED FOR FOX’S SCREEN | Extensive preparations are being made by the management of Fox’s theater for the presentation of the big, gripping Farnum-Fox drama, “The Spy,” which will be shown here for three days beginning Sunday, Sept. 2nd. This picture, which was written by George Bronson Howard, who has resided in Berlin so long that he is thoroughly familiar with the machinery of the Teuton govern- ment, and directed by Dustin Farnum, the most powerful dramatic actor be- fore the public today, has just opened at the Globe theater, New York, and already it is the talk of that city. “The Spy,” is the picture inevitable —it had to be made. It is not a hodge-podge of commercialized pa- triotism, nor a sentimental review of historical charactzrs or events. It does not make use of the Stars and Stripes to arouse enthusiasm, or. to stimulate applause. It does not con- tain any news-weekly cut-ins of bat- tleships, marching troops, or the like. William Fox, the producer of the pic- ture, could not and would not com- mit so unmitigated an offense as to exploit the tragic world cataclysm for commercial purposes. “The Spy” is an inevitable arraign- ment of the House of Hohenzollern before the unbribable bar of common humanity. It is the first anti-toxin to be shot under America’s skin to radicate the subtle poison that threat- ens to disintegrate the life of her government. It is the keen edge of the blade that will cut off from America’s vitals the parasite that is lodged there. Like nothing else that has ever been seen, unlike anything that will ever be seen again. “The Spy” is the mightiest screen drama ever pro- duced. And New .Britain will have the distinction of being the first city in the United States, with the single exception of New York City, to have the opportunity of seeing it. Menu fer Tomorrow .

SIDE TALKS BY RUTH OCAMERON Too Much Thrift There ‘are a great many ways a wite can help her husband. Frugality and thrift are two of the most press-agented. And yet there are times when too much thrift, too much of the Martha spirit, that anxiousness over many things—are a let and hindrance; times when cour- age and faith would be more helpful. We were talking the other day of a young business man who is very hard working, very intelligent and yet does not seem to get far. “I think his wife is partly to blame,” said the Authorman. “How can you say that?” said the Authorman’s wife, ‘“why she works terribly hard and she is so econom- ical!” A Wife Who Had to Have Money Might Have Helped. “She could work less hard and have a larger vision,” sald the Au- thorman, “I think it’s her thrift and her habit of counting pennies that has helped hold him back. He fig- ures too small on the work he does. He doesn’t ever dare take chances. He's somewhat that way and she makes him more so. If he had mar- ried a wife who was used to having money and thinking in big figures he might be forced to succeed.” The Authorman’s wife looked en- tirely unconvinced. It is & dangerous philosophy to put up to women and yet there are women who need it. Daring, the willingness to take a chance, are qualities women notori- ously lack. A Very Brave Thing to Do. Among my friends is a young wom- an who has never since her marriage had to do any hard work, and yet she did one of the bravest things I know for her husband. He is a writ- er. When they came home from their honeymoon several things they had counted on failed them and they had only enough money to pay the rent for a summer cottage they were hiring by the season. She opened bills with all the tradesmen, hired a maid and went calmly ahead, living Jjust as he had always been accus- tomed to live. “It will be all right,” she said, serenely, ' you will sell some stories before the bills are due.” She never let him feel the slightest anxlety, she kept everything calm and pleasant. The result was that, he was not disturbed or made anxious, he could do his work properly and the money came in. Another woman might have been able to pinch the pennies but she might not have been able to have that courage and faith and appearance of serenity which made hig success possible. No, This Doesn’t Mean You. There are woman who need this lesson and there are women who em- phatically don't. I hope the wrong ones won't take it to themselves.

Conn/ !MOREY AND JOYCE - ON FOX PROGRAM The Fox patrons certainly have no grounds for the quantity or quality of the enter-, tainment that is provided for them on the present program. It is one of the biggest shows that has ever been given to an audience in this city, be- ing composed of two great features, Theda Bara in “Her Double Life,” and Alice Joyce, with Harry Morey in “Richard the Brazen,” and a number of shorter subjects which, in all, makeg, up a fifteen reel show. Miss Bara shows her wonderful versatility in this six part production (which was brought back at the insistent demand of Fox-followers) in a way that she has never done before, for the inter- pretation of her role demands the as- sumption of two entirely different na- tures. In the five-act drama, “Richard the Brazen,” there is told a truly re- markable tale of a young Americanc. millionaire who has nfoney to burn, and plenty of time to burn it. When he gets into a mix-up with business sharks who mistake him for someone else, he boldly goes through with the deception for the sake of a girl, and saves her from financial disaster in a way that is remarkable and unex- pected. A rip-roaring Fox comedy and a most interesting exciting ad- venture of Stingaree are also on the% bill, together with a new issue of the popular American News Weekly. , Owing to the arrivl of certairl un- foreseen circumstances, the’manage- ment has been compelled to post- pone for a few days, the showing of the long looked-for ‘“Jack and the Beanstalk,” which has been the cause of more ~ box-office inquiries - and,, phone calls than any other picture ever shown here.
