So kind- ly take yourself off.” Fairly llvid with rage, the lunged at Dicky, who easily side- stepped his drunken rush, and our landlord, already unsteady from his potations, measured his length upon the veranda floor. ‘With a sneering, tantalizing little laugh, Dicky stepped back into the hall, and when Mr. Brennan unsteadi- ly got up from where he had fallen, he looked around ludicrously for his missing adversary.

I was so afraid you were going to have a fight!” 1 gasped and Dicky frowned, even while he patted my shoulder reassuringly. “Will You?” | “You ought to know better than to followed me down into a scrap,” he | said. Then he looked thoughtfully af- ter our landlord. “There’s one thing sure,” he went lowed him—emerged from my hiding ‘ GARRISON can get those papers and books of yours moved over by tomorrow noon.

I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll get some boxes up from the grocer’s and pack the stuff right away.” But I knew Dicky. in action—or rather inaction—when packing his ‘‘collection” before. A vision came before my eyes of Dicky sitting placidly in the midst of his papers and books the next day while an irate landlord thundered at the door. A sudden inspiration came to me. I went over to him and put my hand upon his arm. “Don’t bother about it,” I said gay- ly. “With William Trumbull and the push cart, I know I can manage beautifully, if you'll just do one thing for me. Will you?” He slipped his arm around me, and kissed me tenderly. “Will I?”” he answered. “When you ask me that way? Lead me to it!

It presents what are without doubt the most complex and funniest comedy situa- 222 \ fWW//// Z A1 T A\ TR in BABY MINE Goldwyn Pictures tions imaginable, in the story of Zole and her sober-minded husband, Al- fred, who is made to believe that he is the father of a bouncing boy, as an inducement for him to become reconciled with his pleasure-loving but penitent wife. < He arrives sooner than expected, and there is much hur- rying and worrying to produce a child. One is kidnapped, but the angry parent appears on the scene at the wrong moment, and necessitates the substitution of another infant. The second arrives too soon, and it is found convenient to congratulate Alfred on being the father of twins. He is just beginning to believe it when another youngster is brought around by a well-meaning but tactless friend who wants to do her bit in bringing the couple together, and the awful fact is impressed upon him that in- stead of twins, its triplets! Alfred has no sboner begun to enjoy his new- found dignity than the parents of all three concoct a clever scheme to get their offspring back again. They suc- | ceed as far as the front gate, where they are arrested as kidnappers, and | brought before the indignant Alfred for identification of his triplets, Com- | plication follows on top of complica- tion, and each mix-up makes the whole situation a thousand times fun- nier than it was before. There are some highly original comedy charac- ters in “Baby Mine,” particularly that of the washwoman, who is the real mother of two of the children. Madge Kennedy, who plays the part of Zoie, is recognized as the world's premier comedienne. She has starred on the spoken stage in such successes as “Twin Beds,” “Fair and Warmer,” and several other very popular pieces. In spoken form, “Baby Mine” has plaved to record audiences in Paris, Berlin, London and every other me- tropolis in the world, including Tokio, Japan, where it was kept for one hun | dred nights, the longest run that any European comedy has ever had in the There will be no increase in PETROVA ON THE SCREEN AT LYCEUM The greatest portrayer of dramatic roles in her most Wramatic offering, Madame Petrova in “The Law of the Land,” is to be offered the New Brit- ain public three days at the Lyceum theater commencing today. Critics in every city where this picture has been displayed have nothing but kind words to say for the great offering and from the Atlantic to the Pacific it is hailed supreme. Madame Petrova’s name means ex- cellence. Her name and art unalloyed | are synonomous. None of the petty details that mar the work of present day actresses ‘are found in her work, | and in “The Law of the Land,” her most recent and best suited vehicle, she rises to untracked heights. Never before has a motion picture actress given so great a rendition of so great a part, and with a director and a | cast that are above criticism to as- sist her, the famous and justly popu- lar Russian actress cuts a niche that will' remain long to be viewed, with awe. Madame Petrova shows herself the mistress of dramatic acting. She has a difficult part to enact, and she car- ries the burden lightly for she really lives the part and brings her audience Wwith her throughout her almost un- bearable suffering. The comedy ele- ment, although light, blends ' faith- fully with the dark background that forms the greatest part of the theme. /On the same program with this wonderful production will be the Ly- ceum Weekly, and another of the Lonesome Luke stories. An innova- tion in the program will be the first of a series of six instalments of “With the Allies at the Front.”” Faithfu! reproductions of scenes at the front will be given in each instalment. These scenes will have more than usual local interest because of the fact that American soldiers will soon have the experiences and will view the same scenes that the English and , French soldiers of the pictures are. The program at the Lyceum the first three days of this week will be one of the best ever shown at the play- house. KEENEY’S OFFERS UP-TO-DATE BILL At Keeney’s theater this week the usual up-to-date program of' motion plctures and vaudeville will be of- fered. On Monday, Tuesday and Wed- nesday Pauline Fredericks the great emotional actress, in her latest Fa- ous Players-Paramount picture, “The Love That Lives,” plays the part of Molly, the office scrubwoman. To this part she has brought all - the charm and power of her great talent and made the role one of the: finest she has ever depicted on the screen. Nature has endowed woman with no attribute stronger than sacrifice for nher children, and Pauline Fredericks in her latest Paramount picture, de- picts a mother—an humble scrub- | woman—but possessing all the moth- er-love of any woman. It is not easy to fancy Pauline Fredericks the fas- | tidious and exquisite as a slovenly drudge, but, as might be expected, she has made of the role one of the best pieces of work of her career. On Thursday, Friday and Saturday, Famous Players-Paramount offer Se: sue Hayakawa the Japanese actor, in “Forbidden Paths” supported by Viv- lan Martin and Theodore Roberts. In addition to these features, the pro- gram every day includes a number of pictures of high class and several acts of vaudeville.

That Terrible Once upon a time when I was talk- ing with a husband and wife, the | husbana started to tell a story in il- lustration of some point. “Henry,” said his wife, with a queer little gesture and a tone of calm des- describably funny, “if you tell that story again 1 know I shall scream.” “But my dear,” protested her hus- band, (he is one of those rare people who have enough sense of humor to smile even at themselves) ‘she hasn’t heard it.” She Stepped Aside While He Told It. ‘We compromised finally by deciding minutes while I listened to the story. It was really worth listening to. Quite amusing in fact. But not so amusing as her protest. She expressed so exactly what every wife (and husband) has felt a hun- dred times. Almost every individual has cer~ tain stories of one sort or another that he likes to relate whenever he sees (or can pry) an opening in the conversation. There’s his favorite funny stories, and his most exciting adventures, and the queerest thing that ever happened to him, and the most interesting coincidences, etc., etc. So long as he knows how to tell a story and doesn’t tell the same story over again to the same people, the fact that he is- repeating himself doesn’t matter.

It would be asking too much of man or woman to expect them to play only for the single audience and neglect the gallery the rest of their lives. We all enjoy the gallery’'s applause, however dear and impor- tant is the audience of one.

When you've heard a story so many times that you feel like scream- ing when you hear it coming, just learn to close’ the ears of your mind and. think of something else when it comes. Doubtless your partner doing the same for you. And if you find that things like this fray your nerves, remember that your partner is probably having the same experience, and don't be afraid to give both of you a little rest from each other in any way possible. ““Yoke” used to be a favorite simile for matrimony. “Partnership” is more commonly used of i nowadays.
