Not the Pun.

What is the lowest form of wit? I suppose everyone will probably answer "a pun"
 l challenge that answer. There is another form of so-called wit which is infinitely lower and meaner than a pun. And that is sarcasm.
 It takes some sort of mental fa- cility, if not of very high order, to make a pun. It takes no brains at all to use sarcasm.
 By sarcasm, I mean the sort of thing that generally goes under that head-namely saying the opposite of what you mean, in a taunting manner. "Of Course You Never Make Mistakes''
 For instance, some one is arguing that a certain thing that some one else has done is a mistake. The Op- pOnent, being wOrsted, in arguing that it is not a mistake, picks up the blud- geon of sarcasm and says taunting- ly, "Of course you never make mis- takes.
 Again, when his wife tries to argue that the dining-rOom table is not the proper place to put his soiled cuffs, the sarcastic man can alWoys confute her by saying, Very well, I'll take them down and put them in the coal bin, if that is what you want"

in "Shedd 43," H. B. Warner gives a convincing portrayal of a young man of mystery in the last Triangle play and not until the end are you able to discover his identity. The trench periscope and heliograph are among the instruments of modern scientific warfare whose use is shown in this feature. The Keystone comedy Pup pets,' and the Paramount Burton Holmes Travelogue will make up the balance of this interesting and in structive program.

''THE BLUE ENVELOPE"
 OPENED AT PARSONS
Farce, With Edward Garyie and Car Tie Reynolds, Gets Off to Poor
 Start, But Good Finish.

It may be that t'The Blue Envelope" is excruciatingly funny; it may be that it is the greatest farce ever written,
 it may be that those who saw it at Parsons theater, Hartford, last night will travel back to see it again tonight and tomorrow. These things may be true; but we contend that if it were not for the last act of The Blue En- velope' the players would have re- ceived their final blue slips long ago. There are some very funny situations in the last act of ''The Blue Envel- ope" the players would have received their final blue slips long ago. There are some very funny situations in the last act. The first two are devoted sole ly to getting the play under way, and the movement is exceedingly slow. And yet withal there is some very fine work done by a few members of the cast, even though Edward Garvie is not as good as he should be, after all his stage career, and Carrie Reynolds does not measure up to her reputation

 Sweet oil will remove finger marks from furniture.
 Ice awter is bad for the stomach and the complexion.
 If you wish fish to be crisp do not cover it while cooking.
 Pictures should be hung on an agreeable level with the eye.
 The lightest weight kitchen utensils make work less tiresome.
 Before starting to build a fire the grate should be free from ashes.
 Orange ice served in orange-sllin baskets makes an attractive dessert.
 Chicken soup is improved in flavor if a little grated cheese is put into 1t.
 Onr1D6 1Tull dllu that IS D6Sln- ming to decay should never be eaten.
 If an article of food has been fron- en, it should be kept frozen until used.
 Bread should never be kept wrapped in a cloth; the cloth will absorb mols- ture and impart an unpleasant taste to the bread.
 Before making tea the pot should be filled with boiling water and al- lowed to stand for few minutes. Pour the water out and make the tea.
 DO not leave the furnace ashes un- covered after sitting. Sprinkle with water and cover tightly.
 When coal is red hot it has parted with most of its heat; therefore, dampers should be closed before it reaches that stage to prevent the heat, from going out the chimney.

GRAND THEATER HAS
 GOOD SHOW PLAYING

New Britain patrons of the Grand theater, Hartford, are enjoying many good laughs and much good music this week at the "Behman Show.'; maidens who sing and dance with ability and the male chorus has more ability than the general run of bur- lesque. There are several leading characters who share equally the ap- plause, but the best of these is prob ably Martelle, a female impersonator who is unusually clever Martelle appears in female singing and danc- ing role and until he removes his wig has the audience believing he is a female. Ameta Pynes and Bert Mccarthy give a series of dance in- terpretations that also meet with favor. They are equally good in the Castle dances the Grecian classic dance or the South Sea Island dances
 The show itself is a good one. The comedy parts are ably handled by Wilbur Dobbs, John E. Cain with the Bud Snyder comedy troupe which robe of the chorus adds to the beauty of the show and number of catchy songs, chief among which is one of recent date, For There's Just Little Bad in Every Good Little Girl'' earn applause for the principals and chorus. Scenic effects are likewise good, one showing the forward tur- ret of a U. s. battleship which grad

 It would be your misfortune if VOL miss seeing "It Pays to Advertise" for it will give you the laughing treat ment. 1t also does mOre-much more than that; it bOoms business for the reason that it imparts the best busi- ness spirit. Not the narrow, timid, cringing spirit of small business but the spirit-big, audacious, large vii sioned-which commands success Every man who sees this adroitly con- structed farce leaves the theater with his shoulders squared, eyes bright with resolve and soul dauntless.
 5, Do you eat duck eggs? No, of course not. Well then, why not? When hen lays an egg, she makes noise about it, doesn't she? But when a duck lays an egg the darn fool not advertise.
 There you have the whole idea of Roi Cooper Megrue and Walter Hack ett's very funny play that has been the biggest go the New York theatrical field has seen in moons. And Tt Pays to Advertise' certainly does go. It has all the dexterity of a game that keeps it's audience guessing and even when the fun is at it's fastest, the fundamen- tai commonsense back of it all SUD- plies the necessary punch.
 It all begins with the plot of a wealthy soap manufacturer to get his easygoing son interested in business. His stenographer enters into the con- spiracy and the two find their schemes work only too well.
 On money obtained from father himself the boy embarks on a rival soap manufacturing idea and gives the old man a run for his money. It is see-saw between them, and the ups and downs make one of the breeziest imaginable farces. Seats now selling.

The Weapon Of Those Who Cannot
 Argue.
 Sarcasm is the weapon of those who do not have the brains to argue. or who have no real grounds of argu- ment.
 1t is those who find themselves get ting worsted, who have no logical ar gument to bring up, who seize a sar- casm. The man who really has some thing to say doesn't usually stoop to sarcasm.
 Moreover sarcasm is the weapon Cf those who are not held back by the inhibitions of breeding hey think it is because they are wittier than others that they can say such taunting things, when it is only be- cause they are less wellbred Sarcasm Is Curlcd Lip Talk curled lip is the symbol of sar- casm, and you know how unlovely tEat can make even a pretty face. When you are tempted to resort to sarcasm remember James Russell l LOwelIs warning: "A sheer is the weapon of the weak. Like other devils weapons, it is l always cunningly ready to our hand, 1 and there is more poison in the handle 1 than in the point.'
