What do you know about your in- surance?
 Did you ever read the papers over and find out exactly against what and under what conditions you are in- sured?
 I should think (though I have no statistics) that ninety-fve adults out of a hundred must be insured in one way or another, against accident, fire, death or any of the innumerable things one can be insured against. And I don't believe fifty out of those ninety-five have ever thoroughly read their insurance papers through. What If An Invading Army Entered:
 The other day we were talking about insurance and someone asked what would happen if an invading army should burn a house down would the loser get his insurance. No one new

 Then she touched another bell, evil dently a signal, and waited until through the room sounded an aswer- ing tinkle.

BUSHMAN AND BAYNE
 ON KEENEY'S SCREEN

Scenes of dramatic intensity abound in Their Compact" Metros Super Feature, starring Francis x. Bushman and Beverly Bayne, which will be seen at Keeney's theater today and tomorrow. One of the closing tableau in which Horton. the mining camps evil spirit, succumbs to tragic death in the desert, is one of the most pow erful ever screened. As q sort of poetic justice, he meets his death at the hands of the woman he has lured from home, SO that it Is his own wrongdoing which proves to be his Nemesis.
 The desert country and the rough mining towns are shown in Their Compact" in contrast to the scenes of New York life in which James Van Dyke Moore (Francis x. Bushman) originally moves. Going westward the memory of a bad woman is erased from his heart by the winsome smile of a good one-Mollie Anderson played by Beverly Bayne. Soon he Is suing for her favor with an en- thusiasm the fashionable women of society could never arouse in him.
 Good and evil influences battle in the primitive mining town of Silver vile, and "Jim" Moore has need of all his superb physical strength. Of mental courage he has unusual need
 Today an added attraction will be the third episode of Who Is Number One?" and there are also several lighter attractions: For Wednesday and Thursday, '"rhe Mystery Ship" a wonderfully interesting serial, will be shown, and on Thursday, Fri day and Saturday there will be a big double bill, heading which will be the Bluebird feature, '"The Man Trap presenting Herbert Rawlinson. Brownie Vernon, in Fear Not" Keeney Weekly. and other pictures are on the bill, and at each performance there will be high-class vaudeville.

DOROTHY DALTON AT
 LYCEUM THEATER

Dorothy Dalton. one of the younger actresses who is fast winning her way to the top in the motion picture world. starring in roles of a light vampire class, more firmly established herself than ever before with New Britain fans. when she appeared last evening at the Lyceum theater in her latest vehicle, ''The Price Mark" Miss Dalton lived up to the kind advance notices, and deserved every bit of praise given her.
 '"The Price Mark" handles a vital and an interesting subject in an ex- cellent manner and smashes home forcibly the idea of the damage that might be done the future of a woman by the sins of her youth. This great feature also bares to view another con- dition that exists in sOciety-that of the attitude taken toward the poor. unfortunate girl that falls a victim to the wiles of the polished society man, she being made a veritable out cast while he is welcomed with open arms in the best circles.
 Excellent scenic effects, acting and direction make "The Price Mark" a wonderful film. On Thursday, Fri day and Saturday. the Lyceum man. agement offers Geraldine Farrar in The Woman God Forgot" the sen sation of 1917. This big feature will be at the theater Thanksgiving Day and will furnish excellent entertain ment for the holiday crowds There will be continuous performances Thanksgiving and no advance in prices. Miss Farrar presents this pie ture as fitting follow-up to Joan the Woman She will have in her support such famous actors as Wallace Reid and Hobart Bosworth. Other pictures, including the Lyceum Week. ly, Keystone Comedy and Lonesome Luke, will be on the program all week.

VIRGINIA PEARSON
 TODAY AT FOX'S

'Is any man safe from a marriage able lady?" That's the question that arises in the minds of those who see [ "All For 8 Husband,' the entertain
 ing feature of the present Fox pro-
 gram. in which that beautiful star,
 Virginia Pearson, is the star. Accord
 ing to the story of the picture. no man
 is, when the lady has the beauty and
 charm of Miss Pearson. AS a matter
 of fact, almost any man would be will
 ing to place himself in the same fix as
 Henry Harden, of the photoplay, if
 only to have such a bewitching pur- suer "In All For Husband" MT.
 Fox and his director, Carl Harbough have given the picture-loVing puDnc something entirely novel and thor oughly enjoyable. There is an unex- pected ending that certainly IS unex- pected, and the story is concerned
 with multitude of complications that leave the brain ill Q whirl at It's rapid
 action. No one can do justice to the plot by merely telling it. It must be seen to be appreciated. Mad women. scheming sisters and political intrigue figure prominently in the story which reaches it's elimination at a point
 where one can scarcely tell who is
 crazy and who is sane. But the whole
 thing winds up in a climax full of
 mirth and excitement which leaves the spectators roaring with delight. To- night will be the opportunity of see- ing "All For Husband" Among the other features of the altogether su- perior show are The Fighting Trail', MT. and Mrs. Sidney Drew in one of the cleverest comedies they have yet made, and the Pathe News. Tomor- rows feature will be the long awaited spectacle "The Daughter of the Gods" with Annette Kellermann. Announce ment has been made to the effect that '"The Seven Pearls', that gripping serial in which Mollie King and Creighton Hale have won such great popularity in New Britain will be shown hereafter on Fridays and Sat urdays, instead of on Wednesdays and Thursdays as has been the rule up to date. The change will go into effect immediately.

KELLERMANN AT
 FOX'S TOMORROW

Tomorrow will bring to Fox's thea ter the biggest treat that New Brit ain has yet seen in the way of enter tainment in any form, for it will mark the formal opening of "The Daughter of the Gods," with Annette Kellerman This picture, which enjoys the unique distinction of having run for one solid year to capacity houses on Broadway at two dallor prices and which will remain in New Britain for four days is and always will be the most start ling wonder of the photographic field. So tremendous is 1t, and so perfect, that all picture-producers have bowed down In acknowledgment of its su- preme perfection. and paid it mute tri- bute by not even attempting to imi- tate it! It would be impossible to offer anything like an adequate de- scriptton of "The Daughter of the Gods," but the following statistics may give some slight idea of the magni- tude of the productions:
 Actual cost of the picture, just in excess of $1,10O,O0O.o0.
 Total number of persons appearing. 21,21s.
 Largest number used in single scene, 19.744.
 Number of children used in the Gnome City scenes, 1900.
 More than 200 mermaids. Three hundred dancing girls and women of the harem.
 Number of feet of film taken, 223,- 900.
 Number of feet appearing in pro- duction, 10000.

Have You Read Your Insurance Papers?
BY RUTH CAMERON

And would you know other things which enter into insurance risks. as, for instance:
 How About Gasoline? -.,
 Are you allowed to have gasoline in your house? ;
 Can you have kerosene lamps? If. you were filling lamp by lamplight> and had an explosion, would you get your insurance. :. If your house were damaged by ex- plosion mad fire would you get any in- surance?
 Do the relatives of a suicide get his your insurance?
 Can You Carry Two Insu1anccs?
 Are you allowed to carry more than one insurance on a house?
 Of course it isn't absolutely neces- sary that you know all these things but they are all interesting and some are rather important.
 I'd like a dime for every reader friend carrying insurance who couldn't answer them. I think could buy the house of my dreams with those dimes. @c--~-

What Happened in the House Next
 Door,

Door.
 Never. in all my sheltered, con- monplace life, have I experienced such a romantic thrill as I did when the stealthy knock sounded upon the door of the mysterious room lined with women's costumes into which Lillian Underwood had ushered Kath- erlne Sonnot and me through the se- cret passage from her library to the adjoining house. It was passage of whose existence I was certain no member of her household even dreamed.
 realized, of course, by this time, as Katherine must have also that Lil- Hans brilliant brain, her wonderful energy and resourcefulness must be enlisted in the secret service of her country, realized also that this ser vice must be a matter of years That she had trusted me sufficiently to al- low me to accompany her upon this expedition, Of which I began dimly to comprehend the nature, filled me with pride, with which, however, terror mingled whenever thought of Grace Draper. whom Lillian appeared to feel so sure of finding
 Lillian opened the door promptly in answer to the knock, which was a curious one, three short staccato raps, and then drawing of the hand across the panel, and disclosed standing there a trimly built woman of middle age with an uncompromising jaw and an angular face which had all the earmarks of dogged fidelity, without 1 being remarkable for acuteness. How Lillian Worked 1 "It's all right, Mary" Lillian said reassuringy. T just wanted you to know we were here. I'll give you the signal when we're ready to go out the entrance"
 The woman looked at us suspicious | ly.
 | New ones?" she questioned. l Mot exactly" Lillian returned. I'm 1 going to take them with me-
 ''Is that safe?" the question shot out with hostile infection
 T will be the judge of that" Lil- Han returned quickly, yet with ar edge to her voice that saw brought 8 1 flush to the other Woman's face. She went away without 8 word, and Uil. Han, locking the door behind hel l without comment turned to us anC l looked us over.
 ''Katherine's hair is all right" she said, "but it will have to be wig fol you, Madge. That Titan mass of yours 1 Is enough to give you away anywhere 1 Here-take down your hair and braid it into the smallest compass you can.' | She took a new comb and brush 1 from a case on the dresser and gave them to me. I obeyed her unquestion. ably, and my hair was soon in two strands plaited so tightly as almost tc bring tears to my eyes.
 "Good!" commented Lillian, who had been busy selecting several lone coats and other garments from those banging on the wall Now sit down you and Katherine and I'll give yor l each 8 hand"
 The next few minutes were busy ones. She wound my hair tightly 1 about my head. and put over it a wig of unobtrusive black hair. Then she went at my face, and what she did to 1 that I had no means of knowing ex, l cept that I knew she was applyine l certain cosmetics to it. Then she pu ] upon my head a large rather droop- l ing hat which shaded my face anG further shadowed it with one of the l mesh veils with large embroidered ] figures so many women affect. Ther

HOUSEHOLD NOTES

Old paint stains on a carpet can be dissolved with spirits of turpentine.
 Prunes can be treated to sweet pickle just as peaches or other fruits can.
 Apples are good when baked with the cores in, and there is not so much waste.
 Fried mush should always be served very hot with butter and syrup.
 The secret of good cranberry sauce is quick cooking and very little water
