It was through her 800d sense and tact alone that 1 was able to get out of a most embarrass- ing situation. I don't think she likes me particularly at that. I don’t see how she could, either,” she added re- flectively. I couldn’t, in her place.” “Katherine Sonnot!” I gave her a little impatient shake. “If you don't tell me this minute what you really mean instead of giving me all this cryptic conversation, I'll do something desperate to you."” She laughed, but there was no mer- miment in the sound. “It Isn’t True.” “It isn't a particularly pleasant reminiscence for me,” she said. b am always wondering if I were by any manner of means to blame, al- though my conscience thoroughly ac- quits me. But the }ong and the short of it is that Dr. Braithwaite began to depend too much upon me, and to show a little too plainly that he did 80." “The old—goat!” In my dismayed resentment I couldn’t think of a word in my own vocabulary, so snatched one from Dicky's. “How did you ever manage the situation?” 1 knew how Katherine's sensitive, highly strung nature must have re- belled at such a complication of af- fairs. But I was surprised to hear her say quickly: “You mustn's blame him. He really doesn't deserve it. And he is such a wonderful man! For an instant a doubt of Kather- ine crossed my mind. Could it be possible that Dr. Braithwaite's genius and his wonderful personality had won something more than admiration from my cousin’s flancee? “Don’t think that Madge. true.” Tt isn’t ‘Why Katherine Sailed. Katherine's quiet, reproachful voice made me flush shamefacedly. I was thankful that she: spared me & re- joinder by talking on. “If you had been a nurse, Madge, you would understand as I do, that men are just like chil- dren. They need to be made com- fortable above everything else, and there is an especial appeal about the woman who takes care of their phyhi- cal comfort, especially if ‘well—not positively ugly.” “What if she is distractingly pret- ty?” I interrupted, thinking that any man might be pardoned for losing his ‘head over Katherine Sonnot. ‘They’re like children, too, in their appreciation of anything novel and in their prompt forgetfulness of the nov. elty as soon as they've grown used to it,” she went on ag if she hadn’t heard me. “That is the reason why almost every man fancies himself 4n love with his nurse when he i il1, and | promptly forgets all about her when he gets well. All good nurses real- ize this, and none save a very silly or a really knavish woman ever tries to take advantage of it. If only wives realized the truth of this, and the ephemerality of the feeling aroused there would be fewer heart- aches. “Luckily, Dr. Braithwalte's wife is a woman of rare common sense. She saw even before she came home, from Httle things her husband sald, how matters stood, saw also that the only reason for hig feeling was that he so sorely missed her at first, that he was like a bewildered child. Then my presence in his home, my care of him went to his head like an unac- customed draugh of wine. It only needed hig wife's return te steady him down.” “What daid breathlessly. “Sent for me, and we had a long and most satisfactory talk. I never knew & woman who eould so directly 80 to the heart of things. She was Just enough to realize that I wasn't ¢to blame, she was also wise enough she she do? I asked sacrifices herself and her nefarious government on the altar of her love ,nhuloml‘hr the American, she to know the value of separating her husband from my while. I never knew how she man- aged it, but it was she who pulled the wires for my trip over see to things.” “THE SPY” GATHERS CROWDS TO FOX’S presence for aj “The Spy" has taken New Britain by storm. There is no doubt what- ever that this big Fox production is the greatest that ever hit this clty, | bar none. On the opening, Sunday night, the services of an extra ticket seller and four extra doaor tenders Wwere required to handle the huge throngs that jammed West Main street for an hour before the box office opened. And it is a remark- able tribute to the picture that Mon- day’s crowds, both matinee and even- ing, were just as big as Sunday. They couldn’t have been bigger, as every available seat was pressed into ser- vice, and hundreds were turned away. To accommodate these, and the many who were out of town yester- day, it has been decided to run con- tinuous today, giving three complete shows, including the Charlie Chaplin and Sidney Drew pictures. These three shows will start at 2:15, 5:15 and 8:15. Regarding “The Spy’” is but one thing that Its wonderful! Not a particle over- | drawn, nothing that could in least offend anyone of foreign or parentage. It is the most as- tonishing revelation of what is going on right under our very noses, that can be conceived, exposing with a simplicity and directness that is ap- palling, the insidious spy system that the German goernment is maintaining right now in the United States, And must not be supposed that this is all composed of i organization foreigners, for there are some of our so-called high society denizens who | itself, there can be said: have bartered their citizenship and honor for social position in Berlin and a worthless title. Dustin Farnum that is the name that is on the lips of all who have seen the picture. Far- sighted indeed was Willlam Fox, when he selected him for the princi- ple role. No one else could have done the part. But in the hands of the unrivalled Farnum, we actually live through the terrible anguish, mental and physical, that he endures for the sake of his country. I have never lived for my country”, he says, in character. “but that gives me the more right to die for it!” and, when his time comes, he is not found want- ing. And much credit must be given to winsome Winifred Kingston, who plays opposite Farnum. As Greta Holzt, the little German spy, who cannat be surpassed. Tonight will be the last opportunity to see “The Spy”, as it is booked so heavily throughout the United States that it could not be kept in New Britain longer than three days.
