 Why! Are you going 1n2" She looked so astonished and with a hint of disapproval. I have learned that anything unexpected annoys Mother Graham-I think 1t does most old people. Isn't this something sud- den? Dtcky didn't know you were going this morning. did he?"
 I wanted to smile at her early Victorian attitude, but I knew better than to let any hint of amusement ap- pear even in my eyes. If only I could get away without any comment from Cousin Agatha!
 Yes, I think he does," I returned with a half truth. T told him the other day I thought I would go in either today or tomorrow. I want to look at some draperies."
 Mother Graham Decides.
 My mother-in-law drew her feet down from the fender and arose de- cisively.
 Fortunately, I'm all dressed ex- cept my coat and hat," she said. And I certainly want to see any draperies for this house before you purchase them. Want to go along, Agatha?' She turned with a rather grudging manner to her cousin.
 No, thank you." The words came from the thin lips as if they had been shipped off with sharp shears. ''Im sure dear Margaret doesn't need or 1 desire either your company or mine 1 in her trip to the city. or our assist 1 ance in selecting draperies' l The tone in which the words were l couched was tipped with venom and l plainly meant to be mysterious 1 knew that she hoped my mother-in. l law would rise to her bait and de. mand her meaning: but either tho older woman was unusually obtuse Q, didn't desire to gratify the otbe, woman's maliciousness. At any rate she paid no attention to her ant turned back to me-

 Going to the post office?" asked cousin Agatha. and there was a ma lc1ous gleam through her half-closet Ads.1 Because if you are I can save you the trouble. I'm going dowr tnere myself right away"

REAL COMEDIAN
 AT KEENEYS THEATER

When Bob Penney, tar black humor- ist, sails on the stage at keeney's these days, there is perfect uproar' Bob is no mean comedian. in fact he is one of the best on the big time, and he knows how to use the access sories to increase the fun. For in stance, when he makes his first en- trance. he does not fall on the stage or make spasmodic appearances. as most comedians do. He literally sails on." He has a craft '"The Saucy Belle,'' he calls it. in which he sails his way to success As mu- sician MT. Penney is no slouch. He is however, comedian first. last and all tho time and he introduces such fun into his playing of the cornet, French horn and trombone that one cannot forget for one moment that he is above all a comedian. His solo on the latter instrument to panta- loon accompaniment is a scream and has the audience convulsed with laughter. His jokes are new and bright and he is undoubtedly one of the features of the all-star bill that Keeney's is this week presenting to capacity houses.

Hats off to. the leader of them all! Hail to the greatest comedian in the theater world. Douglas Fairbanks.
 Fairbanks in The Man From Painted Post" takes his audience by the arm and leads it with him through the various mazes of the plot here bringing a laugh, there bringing out the 'kerchiefs, and all with g. sort of familiarity that makes one believe hs really lives the part depicts, in real life.
 Yesterday afternoon and evening when he made his most recent ap- pearance in New Britain, he brought something that he did not appear to drama. And yet his story is a com edy, and is acted as a comedy should be acted and in a manner that Fair banks knows how to act.
 "The Man From Painted Post" re- 1ates the story of a professional gum man upon whose mind preys the re- membrance of the murder of his sister. His life is devoted to the search of "30-30 Smith," the man who committed that murder. Finally in Wyoming, where he is engaged in , rounding up a gang of cattle thieves
 he accidentally falls onto the trail of Smith.

How Cousin Agatha Cunn1ngly
 Blocked Madge's Plan.

Mrs. Allis! As sat staring at the mysterious newspaper clippings anonymously sent with the evident purpose of frightening me, and de- cided they must have come from her. I shivered with the dread the thought of her always bringA me.
 Mrs. Allis, the woman who had driven Robert Savarin, the distin- guished artist, into exile and mental darkness for 15 years; the woman whose plot to steal the valuable paint ings the artist gave to his sister, Mrs Cosgrove, I had thwarted while on an outing with Dicky at the Cosgrove farmhouse in the Catsklll mountains; the woman who had tried to shatter my nerves by A relentless tracking of my movements and a mad attempt to disfgure me with acid-clippings such as these accounts of a spy's exe- cution and 0 hideous Black Hand murder would be just the sort of thing she would employ.
 But only a few weeks before when Katherine Sonnot. my brother coue- in's little fiancee. had providentially saved me from hideous dishgurement at her hands. Katherlne's trained eyes-she was accounted one of the best nurses in the city-had discov- cred that the woman was a drug ad- dict. She had used the knowledge, together with the dread of punish ment for the attempted crime, to force Mrs Allis to consent to enter a private sanatorium for such unfortu- mates where Katherine had the dis posal of one of the rooms. Katherine | and had taken her there ourselves l If she had been dismissed or had es- ! caped, surely Katherine would have l been notified and would have at once 1 gotten into communication with me The First Obstacle.
 1 There was but one thing to be done l I must see Katherine at once. I didn' dare trust to the telephone with m! mother-in-law and Cousin Agatha il the house. and the booth in the loca 1 drugstore was about az bad. l wa
