Never, in all my sheltered, com- monplace life, have I experienced such a romantic thrill as I did when the stealthy knock sounded upon the door of the mysterious room lined with women’s costumes into which Lillian Underwood had ushered Kath- , erine Sonnot and me through the se- cret passage from her library to the adjoining house. whose existence I was certain member of her household dreamed. I realized, of course, by this time, as Katherine must have also, that Lil- lian’s brilllant brain, her wonderful energy and resourcefulness must be enlisted in the secret service of her country, realized also that this ser- vice must be a matter of years. That she had trusted me sufficiently to al- low me to accompany her upon this expedition, of which I began dimly to comprehend the nature, filled me with pride, with which, however, terror mingled whenever I thought of Grace Draper, whom Lillian appeared to feel so sure of finding. Lillian opened the door promptly in answer to the knock, which was a curious one, three short staccato raps, and then a drawing of the hand across the panel, and disclosed standing there a trimly built woman of middle age with an uncompromising jaw and an angular face which had all the earmarks of dogged fidelity, without being remarkable for acuteness. even How Lillian Worked. “It’a all right, Mary,” Lillian said reassuringy. “I just wanted you to know we were here. I'll give vou the signal when we're ready to go out the entrance.” A The woman looked at us suspicious- y. “New ‘ones?” she questioned. “‘Not exactly,” Lillian returned. going to take them with me. “Is that safe?” the question out with hostile inflection. “I will be the judge of that,” Lil- Han returned quickly, yet with an edge to her voice that I saw brought a flush to the other woman’s face. She went away without a word, and Lil- ltan, locking the door behind her Erim shot REVELATIONS OF A WIFE| > GARRISON she shrouded me in a long cloak and turned me toward a mirror. “There.” she said with relief and turned her attention to Katherine. The New Light. I gazed at myself in astonishment. ‘With unerring judgment she had ma- nipulated my costume so that I looked two inches taller, 20 pounds heavier, {and infivitely older than my usual self. And yet so skillful had she been It was a passage of ; that I could not distinguish any make- no | uP beyond the ordinary amount of rouge and powder used by many wo- men veering toward middle age. But I would have defled Dicky himself to have recognized me unless he had been placed in a position to study me. She made another successful trans- formation in Katherine, and then sub- jeted herself to a rigild manipulation which turned her into an old woman with only her brilliant - eyes distin- guishing her from the ordinary aged mother of daughters who are ap- proaching middle age. Then she touched another bell, evi- dently a signal, and waited until through the room sounded an aswer- ing tinkle. “Come now,” she sald, “and remem- ber, follow my lead, don’t speak un- less you're sure I want you to. You'll know by what I say when to talk.” She led the way downstairs and out the hall door of the house next to hers, a house which I remembered bore the sign of an employment agen- cy, and at which I had wondered even in & neighborhood as out of date as the one in which Lillian lives. It was evidently a blind for the varying kinds of people who passed in and out its doors. She hailed the first taxi she saw, gave some hurried directions, and entrance of a rather disreputable-look- ing apartment house in a much poorer quarter than her own. “IWait here,” she said, and alighting from the taxi, disappeared inside the building.

That Titian mass of yours is enough to give you away anywhere. Here—take down your hair and braid it into the smallest compass you can. She took a new comb and brush from a case on the dresser and gave them to me. . I obeyed her unquestion- ably, and my hair was soon in two strands plaited so tightly as almost to bring tears to my eyes. “Good!” commented Lilllan, who had been busy selecting several long coats and other garments from those hanging on the wall. “Now sit down, you and Katherine and I'll give you each a hand.” The next few minutes were | ones. She wound my hair of unobtrusive black hair.

Accord- ing to the story of the picture, no man is, when the lady has the beauty and charm of Miss Pearson. As a matter of fact, almost any man would be will- ing to place himse#f in the same fix as Henry Harden, of the photoplay, it only to have such a bewitching pur- suer. “In All For a Husband,” Mr. Fox and his director, Carl Harbough have given the picture-loving public something entirely novel and thor- oughly enjovable. There is an unex- pected ending that certainly is unex- pected, and the story 1is concerned with a multitude of complications that leave the brain in a whirl at its rapld action. No one can do justice to the plot by merely telling it. It must be seen to be appreciated. Mad women, scheming sisters and political intrigue figure prominently in the story which reaches its culmination at a point where one can scarcely tell who is crazy and who is sgne. But the whole thing winds up in a climax full of mirth and excitement which leaves the spectators roaring with delight. To- night will be the epportunity of see- ing ““All For a Husband.” Among the other features of the altogether s perior show are “The Fighting Trall Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Drew in one of the cleverest comedies they have yet made, and the Pathe News. Tomor- row’'s feature will be the long awaited spectacle “The Daughter of the Gods” with Annette Kellermann. Announce- ment has been made to the effect that “The Seven Pearls”, that gripping serial in which Mollie King and Creighton Hale have won such great popularity in New Britain will be shown hereafter on Fridays and Sat- urdays, instead of on Wednesdays and Thursdays, as has been the rule up to date. The change will go into effect immediately. in a few minutes stopped before thae j BUSHMAN AND BAYNE ENEY’S SCREEN Scenes of dramatic intensity abound in “Their Compact,” Metro’s Super- Feature, starring Francis X. Bushman and Beverly Bayne, which will be seen at Keeney's theater today and tomorrow. One of the clasing tableaux in which Horton, the mining camp’s evii spirit, succumbs to a tragic death in the desert, is one of the most pow- erful ever screened. As a sort of poetic Justice, he meets his death at the hands of the woman he has lured from home, so that it is his own wrongdoing which proves to be his Nemesis. The desert country and tHe rough mining towns are shown in “Their Compact” in contrast to the scenes of New York life in which James Van Dyke Moore (Francis X. Bushman) ariginally moves. Going westward, the memory of a bad woman is erased from his heart by the winsome smile of a good one—Mollie Anderson— played by Beverly Bayne. Saon he is suing for her favor with an en- thuslasm the fashionable women of society could never arouse in him. Good and evil influences battle In the primitive mining town of Silver- ville, and “Jim” Moore has need of all his superb physical strength. Of mental courage he has unusual need. Today an added attraction will be the third episode of “Who Is Number One?” and there are also several lighter attractions® For Wednesday and Thursday, ‘“The Mystery Ship,” a wonderfully interesting serial, will be shown, and on Thursday, Fri- day and Saturday there will be a big double bill, heading which will be the Bluebird feature, ‘“The Man Trap,” presenting Herbert Rawlinson. Brownie Vernon, in “Fear Not.,” Keeney Weekly, and other pictures aro on the bill, and at each performance there will be high-class vaudeville. KELLERMANN AT FOX'S TOMORROW Tomorrow Wwill bring to Fox's thea- ter the biggest treat that New Brit- | ain has yet seen In the way of enter- tainment in any form, for it will marlk the formal opening of ““The Daughter of the Gods,” with Annette Kellerman. This picture, which enjoys the unique distinction of having run for one solid vear to capacity houses on Broadway at two dallor prices and which will remain in New Britain for four days, is and always will be the most start- ling wonder of the photographic field. So tremendous is it, and so perfect, that all picture-producers have bowed down In acknewledgment of its su- preme perfection, and paid it mute tri- bute by not even attempting to imi- tate it! It would be impossible to offer anything like an adequate de- scription of ‘““The Daughter of the Gods,” but the following statistics may give some slight idea of the magni- tude of the production: Actual cost of the plcture, just in excess of $1,100,000.00. Total number of persons appearing, 21,218, Largest number used scene, 19,744. Number of children used Gnome City scenes, 1,200. More than 200 mermaids.

A Moorish city built at a cost of $360,000.00 and totally destroved to make one of the big scenes of the picture. An entire Caribbean island and all of its population utilized by William Fox to assist his actor principals. Took three months to build and equip the tropical city, and then eight months more to make the picture. A special municipality was created and governed by William Fox for his thousands of employees. Special re- frigerating and laboratory plants built and maintained for development of the film. Not a single human life was lost in the making of even thc most hazard- ous scenes! DOROTHY DALTON AT LYCEUM THEATER Dorothy Dalton, one of the vounger actresses who is fast winning her way ta the top in the motion picture | world, starring in roles of a light vampire class, more firmly established | herself than ever before with New Britain fans. when she appeared last | evening at the Lyceum theater in her | latest vehicle, “The Price Mark.” Mi Dalton lived up to the kind advance notices, and deserved every bit of | praise given her. ) “The Price Mark” handles a vital and an interesting subject in an ex- cellent manner and smashes home forcibly the idea of the damage that might be done the future of a woman | by the sins of her youth. This great feature alsa bares to view another con- dition that exists in societv—that of the attitude taken toward the poor, unfortunate girl that falls a vietim to the wiles of the polished society man, she being made a veritable out- cast while he is welcomed with open arms in the best circle: Excellent scenic effects, acting and direction make “The Price Mark" wonderful film. On Thursday, Fr day and Saturday, the Lyceum man- agement offers Geraldine F “The Woman God Forgot,’ sation of 1917. This big feature will be at the theater Thanksgiving Da and wil furnish excellent cntertair ment for the holiday crowds. There will be continuous performances | Thanksgiving and no advance in prices. Miss Farrar presents this pie- | ture_as a fitting follow-up to *“Joan | the Woman.” She will have in her support such famous actors as Wallace Reid and Hobart Bosworth. Other pictures, including the Lyceum Week- | ly, Keystone Comedy and Lonesome | Luke, will be on the program all week. | No Need to Rub Try Sloan’s Liniment and see how quickly the swelling is reduced and the pain disappears.

Did you ever read the papers over and find 6ut exactly against what and under what conditions you are in- sured? I should think (though I have no statistics) that ninety-five adults out of a hundred must be insured in ohe way or another, against accident, fire, death or any of the innumerable things one can be insured against. And I don’t believe fifty out of those ninety-five have ever thoroughly read their insurance papers through. What Jr An Invading Army Entered?

And would you know other things which enter into insurance risks, as, for instance: How About Gasoline? Are you allowed to have gasoline In your house? Can you have kerosene lamps?
