The Praise Glutton.

The Authorman had received an in vitation to spend week end during his wife's summer absence with a bus mess acquaintance who had bought 2 handsome new summer place.
 He refused.
 We asked him why
 "I went to his other summer place once," he said briefly.
 We persuaded hirn that an irlnuendC like that was worse than a frank con- fession, so he finally explained him. self.
 Hes a praise glutton," he said; "eats it up as fast as you can man ufacture it and then hollers for more. All the Way Down You Must Admire
 The Car.
 You know the kind I mean-all the way down you are supposed to admire the car and listen to the req sons why it is the best car sold. Then, when you finally arrive, he hardly gives you time to wash your hands be- fore he takes you all over the house. Of course you are expected to rave about every room, including the bath room. And he isn't satisfied with an adjective for each one, either. You have to admire the furniture, the size of the room and the view from each window separately.
 "At dinner he draws your attention to the cigars, tells you he picked them out especially for you, so that he can have a chance to intimate how much they cost. And all the time you are smoking them you are expected to lei off ecstatic admiration at intervals If you don't he prods you by some lit tie remark like Pretty good flavor? or Not bad for a flve-cent cigar" He Thinks You Should Praise Hin For The Scenery.

CLAIMS HUSBAND IS SANE.
Mrs. Wanamalker, 30, Seeks to Free
 Aged Spouse

New York, Aug. 17.-supreme Court Justice Frederick F. Crane in Brooklyn heard testimony yesterday on the application of Mrs. Emma s. Wanamaker of IA South Portland d avenue to have set aside the order of Judge Norman $. Dike of the county court committing her husband, Lewis Cass Wanamaker, 73 years old, to the Kings Park State Hospital for the In- sune on August 2.
 Mr. Wanamaker was committed by Judge Dike on affidavits made by Dr. George F. Brewster and pr. Sylvester R. Leahy. They said he had made an attack on his wife With a milk bottle and was excitable. Mrs. Wanamaker obtained a writ of habeas corpus last Saturday directing the officials of the hospital to produce her husband in court on the ground that when she signed the commitment papers she did rot know what they meant and that she was deceived by Harry E. Shirlx, a lawyer, as to their true contents. Sne alleges that her husband Is sane and entitled to his freedom.

 any girl who is unfortunate enough 1 to be both beautiful and clever has 1 short shrift where Hattie Graydon ] is concerned. That's what Miss Dra- 1 per meant delicately to convey to 1 Harry, but I'll wager dozen dough- ! nuts to a stick of chewing gum that | Hattie Graydon had some real cause 1 for misgiving if the Draper was in 1 the same company with her. "A Cold-Blooded Little Devil, I Perhaps you misjudge her." I said l taintly. Truth is, I had shamed con- l scioUsness that I could hear no judg- ! ment of the girl which would be too ] harsh for my vindictive heart

 riage, when I had foolishly imagined
 that Lillian Underwood was my rival
 and my secret enemy. What an iron 1 teal turn of fate's wheel, that the | woman whom I had so heartily dis
 liked and feared should now be my
 best friend and ally. Part of my
 thought trembled to my lips, over- | flowed into speech.
 You are so good to me, Lillian,"
 I said brokenly.

BILLY REEVES AND
 CHAPLIN ON ONE BILL

Sharing the position of distinction on the photoplay bill at Keeney's to- night with Charlie Chaplin in "One A. M." will be another com edian, celebrated throughout the world, Bill Reeves, who will be seen in the big Lubin film, ''LOve One Another" Billy has been famous for years as a vaudeville performer and since his advent in the "movie'' world he has
 added to his laurels. The Lubin
 people provided him with a splendid
 vehicle when they selected Love One
 Another' for him nd he has big op-
 portunities to "get over" his amusing
 antics. Patrons of the theater will
 have an excellent opportunity to
 compare him with Chaplin, both ap-
 rearing tonight.
 The Chaplin film is probably the funniest screen production in which this remarkable mirth prOvOker has appeared. It will be shown daily for the balance of the week and those who miss 1t will be the losers themselves. Another feature for tonight will be the Edison comedy drama, ''The Match Makers,' with Sally Crute and Carlton King in the lead
 Tomorrow the headliner will be the Broadway attraction, 'The Bond of ! Blood," featuring Leah Baird. Satur- day "The Speed King" will top the bill
 There are some good vaudeville acts playing at the theater this week. The Rachos have an interesting aero batic turn; Keough and JosOn pre- sent an entertaining playlet entitled, Ambition" and Martin Brothers do a song and dance number that pleases the audience.
New Britain herald., 1916-08-17

If you take walk, he acts as if he had arranged the clouds and the sunset and the scenery and ought to be praised for it. If you go in swim ming or play tennis on his neighbours court, you must pay him tribute of praise for your pleasure.
 "I know it sounds ungracious to talk about man after you have accepted his hospitality but, by ginger, felt as if I had paid for all I got in adjectives before I got away! Hospitality isn't hospitality when you pay for it-and are overcharged into the bargain"
 If you've met the praise glutton, I'm sure you'll readily forgive the Auth horman.
 If you haven't, let the fact that we leased him be his justification.
 With My Letter Friends.
 Some weeks ago I explained the phrase "a flash in the pan" as refer ring to the gold in the prospectors pan.
 Several of my readers have kindly come to the rescue ad corrected my mistake. I will let one of them speak for the rest.
 Ou IldVS LII O11SOuS lNlScI OA CAAO origin of the phrase flash in the pan. This dates back to the Revolutionary war, when the oI style flint and steel muskets were used. The pan on the side of the gun lock was filled with powder to receive the spark produced oy the flint so arranged in the ham, mer of the gun, and the vent filled also with powder would communicate with the powder in the barrel of the gun and fire the charge. When the powder in te gun failed to discharge, why, it would be said it was a flash in ] the pam"
