NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, MONDAY, AUGUST & 1021 HOLDING A HUSBAND Adele Garrison’ s Néw Phase of Revelations of a Wife The Way Madge Rose to Meet Dicky’s Need. I do not know how other wives re- act toward the different moods of their husbands, but the most clutch- ing, the most pervasive of Dicky’s many appeals to me is the one I have most rarely known in him, when he needs comfort and turns to me for it. I have seen tears in Dicky's eyes before. Highly strung as he 1is. I have seen him wipe his eyes at a particularly affecting bit of a power- ful play or some similar appeal. But those tears were far different from the Shes which I now felt against my throat, where Dicky had buried his head. Never before had any trouble of his own been strong enough to ex- tract the tribute of tears from him. and though I knew that he was bi terly ashamed of his Weakness, yet T alse knew from the clinging clasp of his arms, such as a hurt child mizht give to its mother, that I was the one of all the world who could com- for him. “You Blessed Girl " It would be a strange woman in- deed, T fancy, who could not compre- hend how I thrilled with sympathy, which held in it something fercely maternal, possessive and protecting. He was my man—mine—who had come to me, as it were, wounded from a battle, sure of refuge and suc- jcor in my arms. Mine the blessed' task to bind his wounds, mine the privilege to gird him afresh for the fray, mine the joy of sending him forth to win, regardless of what I robbefl myself in so doing. T do not think that I ever have loved my husband so passionately. so sincerely, as I did in the minutes while, with his face against my throat, he clung to me. I knew that T must utter no word until he himself should break the silence that held us, and I contented myself with winding my arms apout him, holding him close as T would Junior, and, pressing my lips against his hair, the while n spirit faced a task from which every fibre in me revolted quiveringly. “You blessed girl ! Dicky’s voice was tremulous with feeling as he raised his head and gazed up at me with eyes holding such loving admiration that, T had to turn away my own in flushing em- barrassment. “If anybody else in the world but you had seen me do that T should have died,” he said extravagantly, and my heart thrilled selfishly enough with the knowledge that he had not even included his mother ~in statement. “You must think me an awful 2 he went ou deprecatingly, “whining like a whipped puppy, but this thing struck me between the eves, and—" “Stop talking that way !" T said in- dignantly. “You never whined in your life, and you aren’t doing it now. And you don’t know how won- derful it is to me that you let share your troubles—" “Share 'em !” he ejaculated. “That’s 2 nice, kind, polite way to put it. T simply dump ’em all in your lap, in- cluding myself and hang ®n you as Yuntor might. Yes, I share ‘em all rizht, only you have the lion’s share. But, od. girl, T don’t know what I'm zoing ta do about this !” His vbice was despondent again, PALACE WED. g TODAY E D. W.

IN in its and I saw that the news of the re- Jjection of his drawings for Penning- ton’s novel, which he had just re- ceived in Marsden’s letter, had, in- deed, to use his own words, ‘‘struck him betwcen the eyes,” and that something must be done, and that speedily, to reassure him. For Dicky has the failing common to many persons possessing the much tbused artistic temperament, of being unable to do good work under ad- verse criticism. He has a high and rigid standard of his own, to which all his work must conform. I have seen him tear up many a drawing which to my eyes appeared perfect, but which failed to satisfy him in some minor particular. But if he evolved, an idea that some one to whom his work was to be submitted did not look with enthusiasm upon his ability, and his execution of the particulars task assigned him, I have known him to sit for hours at' a time despondent, unable to do any satisfactory work until some fortuitous circumstance showed that he had been mistaken in his belief, and that everybody concerned in his work was eminently satisfied. “Why?¥” I knew, no one better, how uni- formly good his work during the yvears had been, and until this letter I had known of no adverse comment. And with the remembrance of his hours of impotent idleness when he had mrely imagined that publishers were not pleased, I quailed at the thought of what effect this unexpected, and I was sure, wholly undeserved blow, might have upon him. ¥ might indeed, be as he had said, the be- ginning of the end of his career. “Didn’t Marsden say that it was not the quality of the work to which Pennington objected * I ventured. “Oh, yes!" Dicky’s tone was lifeless, hopeless. “It was the model I had all right. She didn’t know enough to pound sand, and she looked as much like Draper as Katie resembles you. You remeémber Draper posed for the ‘Day Dream’ illustrations, and those were what took Pennington’s eye, But of course, Draper was and is out of the question.’ It was at this moment that I took my courage in both hands, flung all caution to the winds, looked my hus- band full in the eyes and uttered the monosyllable: “Why 2" OMAN IMPLICATED IN STRANGE MURDER Man Arrested in COonnection With Kennedy Slaying, Brings in- Mrs. Oberchain’s Name. Las Vegas, Nev., Aug. 8.—Deputy Sheriff Nolan, who came here to re- turn Arthur C. Burch to Los Angeles in connection with the ' killing of John B. Kennedy, insurance broker, said that upon his arrival in Los An- geles he would confront Mrs. Mada- lynne Oberchain with certain state- ments claimed to have been made by Burch and said to be at variance with statements of Mrs. Oberchain, who is being held as a material witness. Submitting to Burch of certain in- iormation given by Mrs. Oberchain impelled Burch, according to Nolan, to make the statements concerning Mrs. Oberchain. Chief among these Nolan said is the admission that Burch went to Los An- geles a few weeks ago at the request of Mrs. Oberchain, who telegraphed to him at his home in Evanston, Il Another statement attributed to Burch by Nolan is that Mrs. Ober- chain visited him at his hotel room in Los Angeles and that together they watched Kennedy as he worked in his office across the street. On these occasions, according to Nolan, Mrs. Oberchain was disguised principally with a wig of a color dif- ferent from her natural hair. Nolan also declared that Burch ad- mitted to him that he had used the name of Mr. Oberchain, but declined to tell why. » Exchange of loans of money be- tween Burch and Mrs. Oberchain was admitted the officer said, although Burch previously was quoted as hav- ing denied this. Burch, in custody of: Nolan, left Las Vesgas late last night for Los An- geles.

New York, Aug. 8.—Even the high cost of paper can't make a paper hat very expensive. If you have never seen a paper hat as developed in the latest styles be prepared to find it looking very much like a late Paris import. New York is showing a lot of these pabq; hats. They were developed in Germany during the war. Germany, under pressure of war necessity, evolved . practical paper clothing and paper shoes, aa well as hats. Now the American manufacturer is giving a more esthetic touch to the practical paper hat. Germany is aiso manufacturing fo~ the trade thousands of paper hats. Those shown here were made in Chicago and cost $2 each. The imitation of straw and cloth defies detection. All weaves and shapes are fash- ioned. There is the smart turban of finoly woven braid with follage. There is another big garden hat, a Farmer Green always had a wood- pile in the backyard. - Sometimes it was big. Sometimes~it was little. Sometimes it was mostly made up of four-foot logs. Sometimes the logs were all split and sawed, ready to burn. When Farmer Green and the hired man had nothing more pressing to do they set to work on the woodpile. It was surprising how fast the big sticks grew into firewood under their axes and saws. One day they started uw‘lng and splitting when Johnnie Green' and ..mmnr once left the -hmdohnwmhvs'ww old dog Spot were roaming through the woods. And when Johnnie and Spot came back home, just in time for< dinrier, they found a great heap of firewood lying on the ground where there had been nothing but dirt when they started for the woods some hours before. Old dog Spot ran straight to the woodpile and began snifing and scratching and whining. If Johnnie Green hadn’t been hun- gry, he would have paid more heed to Spot’s behavior. But the men had already gone into the house. And Johnnie hurried after them, leaving Spot to nose about the woodpile as he pleased. “Humph!” Spot growled. “Seem: DAILY FASHION SERVICE sport hat, toques with paper feathers —anything you want. Oh, these paper hats are wvery far removed from those big crepe paper sun shades of your childhood. They ¢re the real thing. Are you real sure your straw isn’t paper? to me Johnnie Green gnight stay here awhile ‘and help me. I've been chasing woodchucks and squirrels for him al] the morning. And I showed him a few birds, too.” Spot never once left the woodpile while Johnnie was eating his dinner. When Johnnie and his father and the hired man came out of the house later, old Spot began to yelp. He made frantic efforts to burrow down beneath the pile of firewood, stop- ping now and then to run up to his young master and bark. Now that he had had his dinner, Johnnie Green was all ready for any sort of f “Spot smells some kind of game in the woodpile! Johnnie exclaimed. “Perhaps he does,” said his father. “But ¥ don’t see how he’s going to get hold of it unless we move the woodpile. And I don’'t believe we'll quit work to help the old dog catch a chipmunk—or maybe a rat.” ‘Come on!” Spot begged Johnnie, as plainly as he could bark. ‘‘Move some of this wood for me! There’'s something under it that I want to get my teeth on.” “All right!’ All right!” Johnnie told him.” And to his father Johnnie said, “Do you care if I throw some of the stove wood over on the other side of the pile?” “It you're going to move any "Wood—" Farmer Green replied with a wink at the hired man—*“if you're going to move any wood, you might as well move it into the woodshed and pile it up neatly.” ‘When he heard the suggestion, Johnnie Green looked very glum. For a minute or two he thought he wouldn’t bother to help old Spot find what he was looking for. But Spot teased and teased. And Johnnie ~ouldn’t help being curious to knew what it was that Spot was after. “Maybe there’s a muskrat here,” ¢ said to himself. “If there is, T'll have his skin to pay me for my ‘rouble.” Copyright 1921 by The Metropolitan Newspaper Service).

THEATER ORCHESTRA MEN OUT ON STRIKE Most New York Claim, to Have New Or- Managers However, chestras Ready. New York, Aug. 8.—The second phase of the walkout ordered by the musical protective association came today when musicians employed in approximately 100 vaudeville theaters were ordered to stay out of the or- chestra pits. Most of the vaudeville managers claimed to be ready with aew orchestra, recruited from the ranks of the American Federation of Musicians. Moving picture houses felt the force cf the walkout yesterday when or- chestras failed to report, under an order of the union effective Saturday at midnight. Movie managers met the situation in various ways. Some employed new orchestras, while oth- ers relied on pianos or organs. Vocal- 15ts were featured at some.houses. In others the orchestra pits were con- verted into flower gardens. The walkout was ordered -as a Pro- test against a proposed wage reduc- Jon and was intended, union officials said, *o forestall a lockout which the nanagers were declared te have planned for tomorrow. (AT Tnless otherwise noted, bureaus of the theater GRIFFITH'S “LOVE FLOWER” AT PALACE The master screen craftsman, David Wark Griffith, producer of the screen’s greatest sensations, creator of the most advanced innovations in motion picture productions, finder and de- veloper of the world’s greatest screen stars, has produced another wonder- ful production, “The Love Flower,” which is heralded everywher gkiq ng which is being heralded everywhere as a creation of exquisite beauty, haunting charmt and spirited drama. United Artists Corporation recently announced its release and the first showing of this newest Griffith pro- duction in this community will be at the Palace theater on Monday, Tues- day and Wednesday. Among the players in this unusual- ly dramatic love story of the South Sea Islands are none other than Rich- ard Barthelmess, Carol Dempster, George MacQuarrie, Anders Randolph, Florence Short, Crawford Kent, Adolphe Lestina, William James and Jack Manning. The one most important thing in casting is the securing of players whose facial expressions can possibly emphasize the characteristics of the parts. No one in the entire motion picture fleld could have been better for the part of Bruce Sanders, a wealthy young plantation owner, than Mr. Barthelmess, for his very being just typifies the very thing that Mr. Griffith portrays throughout the en- tire production and with his world of experience, Mr. Barthelmess gives the character a particularly intelligent interpretation. The Keith vaudeville bill is headed by the Rozellas in a clever musical surprise. DANCING SHOES AT THE LYCEUM For the first half of the week the vaudeville program is headed by The Dancing Shoes.

RESCUE WORK Seven Hundred Farmers, Men and Women, Fight to Save Maine Village From Flames. Rangley, Me., Aug. 8.—Hope that the village of Oquossoc might be saved was expressed last night by leaders of the 700 men and women who have oeen fighting the forest fire along the shores of Lake Mooselookmeguntic, cne of the chain of Rangley lakes, twenty miles south of the Canadiap border.. The fire, which started on hursday, has swept an area three miles wide and several miles long, and last night was creeping up Bald iountain. . Should the flames go over the top * of the mountain it is feared they vould quickly sweep down on the vil- :age and the many summer camps in .ne vicinity. Subsidence of the wind T night, however, assisied the fire dghters. The sawmills og Cummins Brothers and several portable mills in the path of the fire have been de- stroyed. Many women and girls have assisted 0 carrying buckets of water, and sev- «ral have dropped from -exhaustion. A hand tub, operated by a motor, was directing streams on the fire last night from a raft in the lake. An engine from Portland has been sta- tioned near the camps. A slight shower this morning had little effect on the flames. Twenty-five men caught between the fire and the lake shore at Bugle Cove yesterday were rescued by mo- torboats.

WEBSTER flour on the market = comparatively short time agr, we anticipated success, as we knew we were offering to the conswuaer the best flour ever produced, and the discriminating consumer iz not slow to recognize me:it in a really meritorious article. However, the popul.rity of DANIEL WEBSTER has grown fa: excess of our most sanguine anticipations. It has already plsased thousands of housewlves. Its quality ha- been a stronger argument than could have been made by tongue or pen. It may well te called “A flour of quality.” “Better than the best,” and we can truthfully clajm for it “Once known, never for- gotten.” Clean, paore, wholesome and, sanitary, DANIED WEBSTER flour will ever contir.ue to lead where the consumer demands the best Ours is a progressive company and our mill is equipped with the aim most mouern contrivances known to .nan, it being our constan and inteution to give to the -consumers of DANIED WEBSTER Flour tke very best flour in the world. While DANIEL WEBSTER costs originally a little more than other flours, “The value recelved more than equals the higher cost.” Your bread will be more nutriticus, will have a finer flavor and will rcmain sweet and fresh longer; and you can obtain more bread than from an equal quantity of any other flour. A trial will convince you. DANIEL WEBSTER Flour will make its own arguments and appeal to you as eloquently as did the re- nowned man whose name it bears. The guarantee protects you. Please read it: “If you are not thoroughly convinced that DANIEL WEBSTER Flour has produced the best bread you cver baked after you have used an entire sack of it, return the empty sack to the dealer, leave your name with him, and the purchase price wil! be refund. od and charged to, us.” W.J.CAHILL CO.
