NOT DUE TO SEX ALONE
New Britain Women Have Learned the Cause of Many Mysterious
 Pains and Aches.

Many women have come to know that sex isn't the reason for all back aches, dizzy headaches and urinary disorders. Men have these troubles, too, and often they come from kidney weakness. To live simply, eat spar ingIy take better care of ones self and to use Doan's Kidney Pills, is bound to help bad kidneys get better There is no other remedy so well-rec- mended by New Britain people.

HYPOCRISY" STRONG
 SOCIETY DRAMA

The sEams of high society are ex- posed in the latest William Fox pro- duction "Hypocrisy' starring Virginia Pearson and Alfred Swanson, which opens at the local Fox theater tOmOr- row. Owing to the rental of the thea ter to the United Swedish Singing society for Thursday and Friday '.Hy- pocrisy" will be shown tomorrow and Saturday only.
 Everybody familiar with this social
 life of every city from the Atlantic to
 the Pacific knows the social shams
 which come of false standards usually
 associated with wealth and ambition.
 But probably never has this familiar defect of our American life been so boldly and effectively laid before the gaze of all as this production, starring the famous Southern beauty Virginia Pearson. "HyDOCriSy' tells with force ful moral just what makes so-called high society really so low in many of it's phases. It lays bare the vices of social ambition, marriage for any thing but love, mems business race for gold women's climb to social l glory, and all the dangers of gambling | whether in stocks and bonds or at 1 the fashionable "bridge."

Pin Prick Duels

Cleverness is often dangerous The cleVerness, for instance, that does things so easily that it never learns to do them thoroughly.
 A great art teacher once said to young pupil whose work he was see Ing for the first time. "HoW clever you are.' and then, And how I can lit you cut of your cleverness"'
 But 1t is another sort of clever ness whose dangers I am thinking of Just now, the Cleverness of sharp rep artee among housemates, and especial ly among married folks.
 Half Jesting, Half Serious Little Digs
 You know what I mean; you must have sometime been in a home where the housemates made a habit of giV- ing each other half testing, half seri- Ous little digs, and where all the rest were quick to laugh at the expense of the one defeated in this duel of pin bricks.
 Perhaps you've even lived in such a home without thinking much about it. But come, now, think of it, and tell me-after all, is this sort of clever ness worth while? Isn't it, in fact, quite the reverse?
 I once knew two people who start ed out in welded life by loving each other very dearly. And I use that great word "love" advisedly for their feeling. for each other was not founded on the firm basis of congeniality, and made up of mutual respect and friend ship and tenderness all welded to- gether and fused into love by sex at traction. They had a wonderful chance of being happy, and for time they were. But by and by something C1ept between them. It wasn't an- other woman, it was just this internal habit of saying sharp things to each other, by criticising each others little

CHARLIE "CHAP" IN
 "POLiCE" AT KEENEYS

With Charlie Chaplin in his funniest comedy, "Police," leading the photo play program and LaFoela, the pre- mier Japanese dancer, topping the vaudeville bill, Keeneys offers this week a series of film and variety at fractions that should make the house exceedingly popular during the entire week. The big feature above men toned will be given during the cur rent week and the management has decided to charge no extra admis- sion fee. The advent of the warm weather invariably affects theater at tendance to a large extent and to counteract the usual humidity results, the management has secured an ex- ceptionally fine show.
 Chaplin, the $676,000 a year star, is seen during the week as an Els sanay actor. "Police'' serves to again

introduce him in the funny old shoes and trousers which made him famous. 1t is in this makeup that he is at hls best and local theater-goers grow enthusiastic over him. It is a two- part comedy and it is bound to draw heavily on the citys Chaplin devotees. Other theaters have advanced the price for this film but Keeney's will SUCK to the usual figures.
 LaFoela is a wonderful dancer. She has appeared before the crowned headS or Europe on several occasions and has danced before royalty in many countries. She is graceful of figure ana shoWs remarkable skill as a uahcer Her most interesting mum oef IS the Japanese arm dance, which she learned during her girlhood days III 'aNa' her native land. She also introduces the dance of the Apache slrl a French creation that scored a sensation in the European music halls. It made pronounced impression on the first nighters'

venture and rescues a beautiful child from wicked kidnappers.
 The parts taken by the older people this week are subordinated to Bar ney Cook, a part ably taken by John Dilson, who manages to wiring every drop of humor from it. By following Walter Babbing, a great detective, to his office, he succeeds in getting a job as office boy. One minor commission leads the detective to send the boy into the gang of kidnappers as a deaf and dumb boy. How he sticks to them through their flight with little Beryl Merideth into the Catskills, how he gets back to New York with the little girl after the two are abandon cd by the fleeing kidnappers, and how he finally wins the $10.OO0 re- ward offered by the millionaire father are the main incidents of the plot.

 lover are money mad, and she has a failing for bridge which leads her to debt. Her love Ofo dress brings her deeper into that indebtedness which the poor do not know. The picture shows the truth in the tradespeople axiom Ut is only the poor who pay
 their bills' The basis of the play
 was taken from New York life where
 probably Americas money-mad and
 social climbing race is most complete
 ly accentuated. But it applies as we'll
 to the unwritten histories of every
 town of any size, to those stories of
 social disgrace which are whispered
 from ear to ear among the city'S upper
 class and which are known but never
 printed in every newspaper office of
 the land. Only seldom, when a divorce
 suit or sudden crime brings them into courts, do the common folk of every day life realize how lucky they are to possess the virtues of poverty and homely simplicity. In Hypocrisy l all will have a chance to see society 1 as it really is; not all bad, for society

faults in public, of sarcastic comments on his part and nagging on hers. Too Many a True Word Spoken In
 Many of the things were said ap- parently in jest but the sting within the jest went home for all that.
 No, there was no other man nor woman in the cahe; but for all that they weren't heart whole, far from it for the heart of each was pierced with hundred little pin bricks of taunt and complaint and sarcasm.
 I shall never forget one miserable evening that l spent there toward the last. The duel of pin bricks went on as usual until suddenly, after some thing his wife had said, the husband turned on her iii open rage. She was thunderstruck. 'What have 1 said to deserve that" she protested. And in deed her last speech had been nothing particularly outrageous. It was sim ply that each prick had gone 8, little deeper and left the surface of the heart more sensitive and the last prick had proved uncomfortable.
 Can't Be Happy With Or Without
 Each Other.
 They are divorced now, poor, fool ish folks, and as unhappy apart as they were together. And they might be so happy if they hadn't been so clever.
 If you want to be clever, why not turn your cleverness into graceful kindly repartee? Anyone can say sharp things that are amusing. It takes an infinite deal of cleverness to make ] gracious, witty speech. And the flush Of pleasure and gratitude is far pleas anter to see than the flush of resent ment and hurt. If you don't believe me try it and see.

$4,000 PAID.
IN CITY TAXES
Largest Amount On Record
Collected At Office
Yesterday.

Over $4,000 were paid in at the
office of the city clerk yesterday for
licenses. To be. exact, twas stated
that when City Clerk Eggart checked
up last night after day of the hard
est work done in his office in many a
day, it was found that there had been
collected little more than $4,000.
Some additional licenses were taken
out after this check was taken, and
yesterdays collections are said to
have established record for a single
days receipts in the office.
City Clerk Eggart and Assistant
Clerk L. Heinberg were kept almost
constantly at their desks during the
day writing receipts and taking in
the money Offered the greater part
of the days receipts being in cash.
Comparatively few checks were ten
dered. Several saloon raen, after L.
censes to avoid the fifty per cent,
penalty, counted out hundreds of dol
lars to the clerk, who, carefully re-
counting the piles of greenbacks and
gold, gave a receipt for the amount
paid.
Paying the license fee into the
office of the city clerk, all applicants
were then referred to the comptrol-
ler's office for license certificate, and
here was another busy office. The
comptroller, ]. Harvey Bayless, with
Assistant Comptroller Dan Murphy,
Philip Klein from the water depart
ment, and Tax Assessor James
Largue were busy here during the en-
tire day. The tax assessor, however,
was busy looking up back taxes while
the comptroller aided in writing hun
dreds of licenses during the day.
Another crush took place at the
office of the water company, on the
second floor of the city hall, where
monthly bills were being settled, sew
eral thousand dollars having been
paid over the counter in that Office.
