Household Notes

No cream is used in a true sher- bet, but white of egg or a little gelatine mixed with fruit juice.
 A brightly polished bit of color is sometimes all that is necessary to give a note of color in a room.
 It is poor economy to save fruit jar rubbers from year to year Ster. ilize the cans and buy new rubbers.
 The corner cupboards, found in many old houses, give a delightful opportunity for the display of old china.
 A drawer made to slide under ones sewing chair is an immense con- venience for the keeping of thimble, needles, etc.
 To heat sugar for jelly making, put it in a granite-ware basin in the oven and stir occasionally. The oven door should be open.
 Paper plates are best to take on picnic, because they can be burned When used. Also a thermos bottle is well nigh indispensable.

 TO BE SEEN AT FOX'S

Continuing the policy of showing each day one of the greatest photo play features on the market, "The World, the Flesh and the Devil'' will be shown today in addition to the regular program of standard comedies and dramas. The story of this six part drama is extremely novel, is gripping from the very start and has been presented before the camera in manner which leaves nothing to be desired, while the members of the cast are all prominent stars of film land" Desirous of making the child of his mistress heir to his fortune, Sir James Hall bribes the nurse to exchange his infant son for the il- legitimate son. As years pass on
New Britain herald., 1914-07-21

both sons grow to manhood, and one thinking he is the illegitimate son be- comes highly elated, until told by the dying nurse that the exchange was made; from this time on until the finish of the story the many thrilling incidents come thick and fast as to make this production most absorbing and intensely interesting. The bal ance of the program is made up of first class comedies and single reel dramas from the Universal Studio, in cluding 'The Universal Boy," a ju- venile comedy feature that will ap- peal to the grownups as we'll as the youngsters.
 Tomorrow's program will be head ed by 'The Romance of An Outcast," picturized version of Alphonse Daudet's famous novel Jack" and promises to be one of the most pop ular photo dramas of the day. The striking human story of Jack" is one that is bound to appeal to every lover of the photo-play.>

KEENEY'S THEATER
 HAS A DANDY BILL

Keeney's theater has another rec. ord breaking bill this week. The reg ular Monday nighters seemed to be especially pleased with last nights offering, judging from the applause.
 Heading the entertainme this week is stirring story of underworld starring Miss Dena Cooper of Aus- tralia. "The Confession" is beyond doubt the best underworld drama that has been seen in the local play house this season. MT. Sheldrick plays the part of the gentleman crook to perfection using great amount of pistol play, minus the ten, twenty and thirty effect that is so noticeable in one act dramatic productions
 Bush and Ensel, advertised as two bar comedians, won new laurels for themselves last evening when they presented their regular stunts. The bar acts are vastly different from any athletic tricks offered for the ap- proval of Keeney patrons in some time.

 Tight rope walking is furnished by the famous team of Granto and Maud, Brussels most famous entertainers The male member of the company thinks nothing of turning flips on the wire, and winds up his act by turning a double flip, something that is very rare in tight rope walking circles The team has been receiving much favorable comment about town all day.
 The Maxinoff troupe is once again in town. Every season this clever bunch of entertainers makes a visit here and every time they appear they become more popular. A banjo and mandolin selection is played by the entire company numbering seven. The dancing and singing is different from the regular run of musical acts, re- sembling the entertainment of an Italian act not Americanized

Pads and Fashions

Paris is in tho height of admiration for the combination of maline and lace.
 velvets will be a most fashionable material for evenings as well as street wear.
 The bow tie makes suitable finish for practically all tailored basques.
 Later in the season wraps of velvet will supersede the wraps of thin material.
 The new sunshades have plain hook handles of polished horn, jade or iapis lazuH.
 Blue serge is frightened by being combined with Roman stripes or Scotch plaids.
 Little girls are wearing frocks of white crepon with sashes of bright colored crepon.
 Very smart are the hats of white satin in sailor shape, with trimming of black wings.
 A very smart hat is made of Bel gian split straw in white, combined with white felt
 Odd shades of blue will be worn, also mauve and reddish purple shades. These are all for evening.
 White serge frocks are smart for afternoon wear. They are made with long basques and Dutch tunics.
 The newest gowns have their bodices drawn down snugly, and there is not a suggestion of the blouse.
 Flower-patterned fabrics are very much used for making the frilly, flounced, feminine summer dress.
 Women with dull eyes should never wear diamond earrings Pearls soften the face more than any other jewel
 For afternoon wear the large, fiat hat is fashionable. It is made of vel vet, crepon, mousseline de soie, taffeta or satin.
