HOLDING A HUSBAND Adele Garrison’s New Phase of Revelations of a Wife What Docs Dicky Demand. By Dicky's face 1 came out ot the telephone booth I knew that he hud overheard my reference to Dr. ‘Petit.

I made no answer, for I had all 1 could do to see the road. It was as if the prospect of Lillian's danger lit- erally blinded my eyes. Dicky spoke softly, yet compellingly: “Drive to the side of the road and stop.” I obeyed him, almost without mv own volition, and as I mechanicall stopped the car, Dicky leaned past Dicky Is Pessimistic. But I am sure there was no trace of my feeling as I related to Dicky just XEW RRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 3, ‘_\".\ == >_ Unless otherwise noted, bureaus of the theater BLAKE'S CIRCUS TO SHb\\' AT THE LYCEUM Announcement has been made by the manager of the Lyceum theater of his securing Blake’s Circus for the last hal’ of this week. 1t is consider- ed the biggest and best vaudeville act that is appearing today. It was recently connected with the Barnum & Bailey shows. With the Blakes circus, they have a bucking mule which is the only mule that a person cannot ride. Five other big time vaudevillé acts are also included in the vandeville program. “Uncharted Seas,” is the feature picture for the last half of this week. It is the story of Lucretia Eastrhan. It is the tale of a young wife who tried against the promptings of her heart, to help her husband make good as a man. How she, in the silent cold wastes of the Uncharted Seas’in the Arctic, solved her life’s dilemma, is an emotional experience of such intensity that only so genuine an actress as Alice Lake could portray it. WALLACE REID AT PALACE When Ben Ames Williams' story, “Toujours de L'Audace” was pub- iished in the Saturday Evening Post recently, it instantly created a sen- sation. Perhaps millions of persons read the story and now that it has been adapted to the screen for Wal- lace Reid under the name of “Always Audacious,” it doubtless will attract much attention. “Always Audacious” will be shown at the Palace theater for three days beginning Thursday.

But my dread for Lillian was too heavy on my heart to permit speech as, indeed, I think it restedi on Dick also, and we drove the rest of our journey in absolute silence.

The scenery, effects, and elaborate ward- robe used in the production should create a stir in this city, as never be- fore has a production of this calibre been offered in vaudeville here. The cast contains twelve clever perform- ers, special music by Walter L. Rose- mont, and the book and lyrics by Darl MacBoyle and the entire produc- tion staged by George Choos. The management is not cutting down the program in order to show this production as there will be three other high class acts on the same bill, and the feature photoplay presents Wallace Reid in his new one, “Al- ways Audacious!” “TRICK PROPOSAL” AT THE CAPITOL “A Trick Proposal,” the Capitol headliner for the first half of the week, teems with fun and good music. A dancing and singing chorus assists in the entertainment. Stewart and Harris are a versatile pair who are as funny when they are juggling as when they are doing an eccentrie dance. A. Wolman received a “big hand” at Monday night's performance, with his imitations of Bert Williams and Al Jolson and his comical ditty. The trio of Compton Girls sing and give a variety of dances, the Scotch being the most pleasing, though trite. The screen feature of the program is “The Man of the Forest,” a Zane Grey story, in which Claire Adams, Robert McKim and Carl Gantvoort play the leading roles.

ME TALES area> THE TALE OF) £) Grunty Pig had got out of his pen and out of the piggery too. Ever since his talk with Moses Mouse the day before he had been hoping for a ‘chance to escape. And shuffling across the farmyard somewhat heav- ily—for he was growing longer and taller and fatter every day—Grunty went straight to the woodshed door. Il was open. And he walked through Then he clattered over the wood- shed floor and peered into the Moses Mouse tried not to lock startled kitchen. There was no one there. For a few moments Grunty stood sniffing in the doorway. A delicious odor greeted him. He wasn't sure whal it was. A pan sat near the edge of the table. And Grunty Pig had no trouble upsetting it with his nose. Doughnuts rolled in every direc- tion—ecrisp, brown, freshly fried doughnuts. And Grunty Pig showed that he was thoughtful. He went to the trouble of picking them all up off the floor. But he forgot to drop them: back into the pan. Instead, he put every one of them into his own mouth. “That Moses Mouse was all wrong,” he murmured. ‘“He complained of the food here. When I see him I'l have to tell him that he was mis- taken Why, I never ate anything that tasted better than these rings.” Afcer making sure that there was nothing else for him to devour in the kitchen Grunty Pig pushed through a door that stood ajar. He founa himself in a long, dimly light- ed hall. There were doors on both sides of it. Grunty nosed around each one In turn. Not till he came to the last of all, at the further end of the hall, did he find one that wasn't shut tight. This door yielded to a little gentle pushing. And Grunty then found himself—though he did not know it—in the parlor of the farmhouse. As he stood still and gazed about him, who should come stealing into the room but Moses Mouse. “Ah!” said Moses in a “So you've arrived at last?” “Yes!” said Grunty Pig. “Isn't this a fine pen? Now that I've come to the farmhouse to live I believe I'll make this pen my headquarters.” “That’s a good idea,” Moses Mouse told him. “Farmer Green's family whisper. “ALWAYS AUDACIOUS” don't use it often. They seldom come here unless they have company.” . While he listened, Grunty Pig sidled up to a table in the center of GRUNTY P W BY ARTHUR SCOTT BAILEY, . WY minded fashion to rub his back against it. To his surprise, the table tipped over and a lamp that had stood upon it crashed into a hun- dred pieces on the floor. Then a door slammed somewhere and steps sounded in the hall. Moses Mouse tried startled. “I must be going nmow,” he abruptly. “I'll see you later.” he dashed into the fireplace and ran up the chimney. “The accident was really fault,” Grunty called to him. hadn’t talked so much I'd noticed what I was doing.” Moses Mouse, however, did not re- ply. And a moment later Farmer Green'’s wife appeared in the doorway. When she saw Grunty Pig she gave a scream. Mrs. Green couldn’t help being surprised at first. But soon she began to laugh as if she would never stop. “A pig in our parlor!” she cried “Whoever would have thought it?" Grunty Pig tried to explain that the broken lamp was really Moses Mouse’s fault. But Mrs. Green wouldn't listen. She ran out of the room and came back at once with a broom in her hand. Then, opening the front door, she drove Grunty Pig into the yard. “Now, I wonder why Mrs. Green put me out of the farmhouse,” he muttered. Suddenly an idea popped head. “It must be’” cause I told tales. I tattled on Moses Mouse and Mrs. Green didn't like it Next time I'il be careful about what I say to her.' There never was a next time. Per- haps Farmer Green took pains to keep the door of Grunty's pen shut Perhaps Farmer Green made the fence outside the pigsery “hog tight.” as he said he would. Or perhaps Grunty Pig grew so fat that he couldn’t squ@ze through any ordi- nary opening. Anyhow, Grunty never set foot in- side_the farmhouse again. After a while he didn’t care. The bigger he was, the less he liked to roam about. And at last Farmer Green began call-' ing him his “Prize Hog." So you can see how very fat he must have been.

DAILY FASHION SERVICE HINTS ON NEW THINGS FOR FALL BY MARIAN HALE New York, Aug. 3.—Whether it is a complete disregard or an accentuated observance of season values—the French fashion artist never fails to get noticeable effects. In these two French imports from Franklin Simon & Co. autumnal char- acter is given in picturesque detail The evening gown is of golden- brown chiffon velvet and its new and oddly draped skirt is a continuation of the long-waisted bodice with its rich- toned panel embroidered in amber and jade. With Bacchante-like abanden the black satin meteor afternoon gown shows its wearer—not with vine leaves in her hair but with a wreath of black Cire flowers encircling her waist. An interesting indication of the new blouse bodice, which will be an autumn feature, is shown. An insert of gold forms a panel of the blouse and also of the sides of the skirt.
