OPERATIC SOPRANO
 PLEASES AT KEENEYS

One of the salient features of the show at Keeney's this week is the work of Lucille Savoy, dainty oper- atic soprano, who introduces an inno- vation in the shape of original Par isian art posing. She is gifted With beauty and an excellent voice. She has a superb figure, understand.ng perfectly all her poses, which are from the famous paintings of the Sa- lon in Paris She represents most artistic study of visual beauty. A spe- cial set of slides are used to throw the pictures on the screen with Miss Savoy shapely and beautiful, the sub iects around which the reproductions are worked in the most beautiful col ors. Probably her best pose Is that of a mermaid. Pose after pose was re- ceived with awe by the first night ers" but when Miss Savoy appeared as the beautiful mermaid the audi ence burst forth in applause of ap- preciation that was most flattering. She possesses a sweet voice which she used in pleasant manner in the pos es The act is refined from the rise to the fall of the curtain and the charming Lucille deserves all the good things that can be said of her.
 ''The Parson and the Burglar,' is the title of an extremely interesting dramatic playlet, which introduces to New Britain theatergoers Joseph AL deman, the popular actor. MT. Aide man has ben a successful entertainer for many years and in the vehicle he is now using he is adding many laurels to his already large collection. In the role of the parson he is at his best and as such the audience last night liked

One of the most interesting features of the present fashions is their adaptsbility. l his blouse can be made a perfectly plain simple shirt waist, or an elaborate bodice adapted to drcssy afternoon wear, as the over-portion Is used or omitted, and the neck finished in one way or the other. The blouse itself is just a plain one with high neck. The over-portion suggests the bolero idea that is especially adapted to lace or other bordered ma terials. The seams of this over-portion can be sewed in with the blouse to make one garment, or the over portion can be finished separately and worn or omitted as occasion requires. The high turned over collar with N-shaped neck is esscn- tially smart In combination with the lonT sleeves. In the illustration, the blouse is made of crepe de chine and the ovcr-por- tion is of lace, and nothing could be prct- tier or more fashionable, but as a matter of course, plain material could be used for the over-portion with the edges fin ishcd with picot or hem-stitching or trimmed in any way to suit the fancy, and there are other bordered stuffs as suitable as lace. Among the cotton ma terials are to be found lovely bordercd voiles, and one of these in combination with plain would make charming effect.
 For the medium size will be needed for the blouse 3T yds. of material 27 in. wide aH yds. 30, I34 yds. Al, and for the over portion, 5 yds. of lace IS in. wide, or 24 yds. of plain material P in. wide, IA yds. 36, Ias yds. A.
 The pattern No. S585 is cut in sizes from 34 to A bust measure. It will be mailed to any address by the Fashion Department of this paper, on receipt of ten cents.

Household Notes

Violin strings make an excellent string for beads. '
 Fish should be boiled in salted water to make it firm.
 Cream taken after a meal is eX- cellent to increase flesh.
 White fish is, as a rule, more digestible than any meat.

 Tomato juice will remove ink stains from fingers; so will lemon jcice.
 Before beginning to paper a house always see that the chimneys are clean.
 Before planting garden seeds, make sure of plenty of little wooden labels.
 Fruits of all available kinds should make large part of the spring dietary.
 Every housewife does not know that tea can be bought in compressed tablets
 Rinse cut glass in bluing water if you wish it to have the utmost sparkle.
 To make cut flowers last, set them in a pail of water up to their necks over night
 Cakes should be put in hot oven to prevent the fruit from sinking to the bottom.
 Olive oil makes an excellent tonic in the spring-a teaspoonful three times daily.
 To save the heels of your silk stockings, line the heels of your slip pers with velvet.
 If sewing machine needle be- comes burnt or hooked, rub it evenly on a sharpening stone.
 bOulllOu CuDSS Ol squares Ol Deel paste are handy to have in the house for emergency luncheons.
 One-half teaspoonful of vinegar added to the cold water when mixing l piecrust will make it flaky. l
 In the spring all winter clothing 1 should be looked over, brushed l cleaned, aired and repaired.
 Fish should simmer brislIly; if 1 it boils fast, the outside will be broken i before the inside is cooked.
 Never pour boiling water over | fish in fish kettle, it breaks the skin; lower the fish into tn ewater.
 Everybody does not know that | pickled apples are quite as good a 1 relish with meat as pickled peaches. i
 An old coffee or cocoa tin makes 1 a good flour or sugar dredger, if a ! few holes are bored in the bottom of 1 the tin.

CONVICT ESCAPED But
COMES BACK TO PEN
LIFE TERMER TALKED IT OVER
WITH WIFE AND MOTHER,
RETURNS TO PEN.

ATLANTA.-One of the most I'M
usual incidents in the history of the
Atlanta federal prison occurred Fri
day morning, when Mark Blenken-
ship, so years old, "Hfer" who es-
capped three weeks ago from the pris-
on chicken farm, where he was a
trusty, returned and voluntarily
gave himself up to Warden S. G.
Ierbst,
Blenkenship told the warden that
he had gone from Atlanta to his for
mer home at Sylacauga, Ala, where
he saw his old mother and his wife.
He said he talked it over with them,
and chat they advised him to go back
and serve his time-his life. So he
told mis- mother and wife goodbye
and caught a train for Atlanta to re-
enter the prison whose walls will
hold him until he dies.
Most prisoners as a punishment
for escaping lose their good time
the time off of their sentences earned
by good behavior. But Blenkenship
viii not lose this because a man SEN
fenced for life doesn't get any 'good
time death offers the only means
of freedom. And Blenkenship will
not be punished for escaping; per
haps, even, said Warden Zerbst, he
may be made trusty again. This
will not be done at once, said the
warden; first he must talk to the
man and sound him out before again
trusting him.
A search by the many agents of the
government had failed to find a clue
to Memberships whereabouts, and it
is possible that he might have re-
manned in the mountain Businesses
near his Alabama home for many
years before being caught But his
mother and wife told him to come
back and pay his penalty, so he
came.
Blenkenship was sentenced to life
Imprisonment in the United States
court of Alabama after bein5 found
guilty of conspiracy to murder rev
enue officer. He was a young noun
taineer, hale and strong, when SEN
fenced fifteen years ago; now he is
man. old and broken.
Warden Zerbst said that his vol
untary return under the clrcum-
was most remarkable.
