ATTRACTION
 FOX'S OFFERING

Another one of those special mid week double-feature programs will open at FoX's tomorrow for two days, presenting two of the most popular of the younger masculine stars of the screen, George Walsh, who re- turns at the insistent demand of Fox patrons in one of his most in- teresting five reel features Blue Blood and Red"; and Harold Lock- wood, who is the star of the new Metro wonder-piay, "The Averaging Trail" Blue Blood and Rcd' is a rapidf1re talo of the great wild-west, and it shows George Walsh at his best as the young cow-puncher who persists in getting himself into trouble just to see if he can get out of it, There is plenty of good red blooded action in the piece. and ex- citement without end, as we'll as lots of hearty George Walsh laughter. Harold Lockwood is always good, but he has never been seen at such an advantage as in "The Aveng- ing Trail" The story of it is something very unique, and deals with a long pursuit for revenge, which is finally accomplished under the most exciting circumstances inn dSll1ctplG. A HuUlDoI OL OLnGr uluS- ually good pictures complete the show.
 Much interest has naturally fol- lowed the announcement of the fea- ture for Friday and Saturday, which will be "A Heart of Romance,' with June Caprice and George Bunny, the Well-known and popular local actor who recently signed up with the Will liam Fox force. MT. Bunny plays an important role in the piece, that of Judge Stafford. who is the guardian Of a young and beautiful girl, (June Caprice.) The story which is highly original turns on the difficulty of determining whether a certain suit OTIS affections are prompted by love of the girl, or love of her money. On the same program will be the first of the new Billy West comedies, which are said by those who have seen them, to be quite as good as the Chaplin pictures.

KIDNEY TROUBLE NOT
 EASILY RECOGNIZED
Applicants for Insurance Often
 Rejected.

An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Com panies, in an interview of the subject, made the astonishing statement that one reason why so many applicants for insurance are rejected is because kidney trouble is so common to the American people, and the large ma jority of those whose applications are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease.
 Judging from reports from drug gists who are constantly in direct touch with the public, there is one preparation that has been very suc- cessful in overcoming these conditions. The mild and healing influence of pr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its remark able record of success.
 We find that Swanp-Root is strictly an herbal compound and we would advise our readers who feel in need Of such a remedy to give it a trial It is on sale at all drug stores in bot ties of two sizes medium and large

REVELATIONS OF A WIFE

Katie looked Up at me, innocent1yy Wide-eyed.
 "Oh, Missis Graham" she carolled happily, "I so glad. I lose heem two, Itree days ago, not know were I drop heem. Tank you so mooch. I like ,heem lots. You plees put heem down on table. no want to feex heem now. Il Vait till my biscuits coom out"
 Into DicIly's Arms.
 Silently I put the bauble down upon the table, and silently l retreated from the kitchen, thoroughly puzzled. Both Katie and Cousin Agatha, one silently, one volubly, had proved a conclusive 'alibi against my suspicious of their spying.
 | I was forced to the conclusion that a mouse had been the cause Of my men tai discomfort after all. But back in the recesses of my brain where Jpigeonholed the incident, there ling Iered a barbed little doubt of so sim Iple a, solution of the mystery, a barb which I knew would not fail to Hester in my consciousness and cause me many hours of discomfort. As I reached the front door Dicky was just turning into the gate. The sight of him in the flesh, safe and sound after the fright I had had over the message from the hospital, put to Irout temporarily all the problems pertaining to the secret service work in which I was assisting Lillian. My man had come safe home to me again. This was the only thing that mattered just now in all the world.
 Forgetful alike of the coolness with which we had parted over the tele- nh nf I~ of the ncighbors opposite, I pulled open the door, ran down the steps and fa1ly threw myself into my husbands arms

THE DOOR BETWEEN"
 KEENEY'S HEADLINER

Establishing herself firmly in the esteem and affection of the public in the brief space of a single year is the achievement accomplished by Ruth Clifford, the dainty Bluebird star, who is featured with Monroe Salisbury in ''The Door BetWeen,'' which will be shown at Keeney's theater tomorr Her extraordinary good looks and her sterling ability as an emotional &C., tress have carried her far on the high way of success, but these attributes have been aided and abetted by her rare good taste in choosing clothes suited to the characters which she portrays.
 Since her debut in Bluebird photo- plays, Miss Clifford has had rather a prcponderance of "gingham" roles.
 Miss Clifford has clearly won the right to be listed in the exclusive Blue bird Armament as one of the bright est stars that shine there, and there is every indication that the present com- bination of Ruth Clifford, Monroe Sa- lisbury and Rupert Julian will prove to be one of the strongest in the field.

SIDE TALKS
An I1nteres ting Custom
BY RUVM QAMEsHON

An interesting custom which has been growing more common in the last few years is the selling of their cast off clothes, by women of means.
 Doubtless women have always done this, but not, I think, to the extent they now do and not as systematical- ly Once only the rich dreamed of such a thing. Now the upper middle class do it, too.
 There are fashion magazines which have a regular department for hand ling the sale of such articles. Women who can afford to part with gown not because it is worn out, but be- cause they are tired of it, offer it for sale at a small part of it's original value People who have to discard gowns or give up furs because they are going into mourning partially re- imburse themselves in this way.
 Just the other day I heard of wo- man agent whose sole business IS handling the half used fnery of the rich, on a commission basis.
 When Would Her Washwoman
 Wear It?
 A woman who has traded with her was talking about the custom ana someone asked why the rich did not give their clothes away to the poor, just as the middle class does.
 Well" said the woman, every year I have a very elaborate evening gown to wear to the three grand as semblies which are the big soclal event in our city. I seldom wear the gown anywhere else because 1t IS So elaborate. Now the next year one doesn't like to appear in the ssUih9 gown and so I send this to the agent. How could I give it to the poor Would my washerwoman wear it?'

LYCEUM VAUDEVILLE
 STRONG MAGNET

For the second time in two weeks New Britain witnessed a real theatri cal riot when three capacity audi ences and one good-sized crowd stormed the Lyceur theater yester- day to witness the third bill that has been presented since the theater entered the vaudeville field. Crowds Of such size as to startle those in charge of handling the entrances jammed their way by the ticket office and into the alleyway that leads to the theater, and hundreds of people waited patiently for those inside to get out in order that room be pro- vided within.
 Yesterdays crowds were larger even than those of last Monday, and while they did not get in as rapidly as might be desired, the manage ment did everything possible to give satisfaction. What is better than the fact that the crowds were good is that the bill was good. By far the best yet, according to the crowds that piled in, and they ought to know. From the first picture right through the vaudeville and to the last scene of Mary Gardens "Thais," the performance was excellent.
 falrIaX & StdHOrd, COlOred enter tainers sprang 8 surprise by giving the rest of the show a big run for principal honors.
 The headline act was Victor's Musical Melange, with fourteen mu- sicians led by Beatrice Nash, direc- tor. Miss Nash in two vocal solos proves a delightful singer, and the harmony of the instrumentalists was beyond criticism. The other act, Wells & Lee went over in excellent style in their singing and talking skit. The big motion picture, "Thais" lived up to advance notices, and then some. Miss Garden, known to most New Britainites only through the columns of the press was seen in her first motion picture offering, and carried off the honors like a sea- soned camera artist.
 "Thais" is the story of Egypt in the days when Christianity was start ing to make headway against great odds, but unlike most pictures of the land of the Nile tlrere is no lack of action. Action, action all the time,

 Ireland, the Isle of Romance, has furnished the scenes for many beau tiful dramas, but none more quaintly sweet than '"The Man From Wicklow which was produced last evening at Parsons theater, Hartford, before a small audience that thoroughly en- joyed the production Fiske O'Hara, the last of a once populous school of Irish actor-singers, was billed as the main attraction, but unfortunately he was afflicted with a cold and his voice could not be heard at it's best. It is needless to dwell on his acting in the role of Robert Emmett O'Donovan, an Irish boy who had grown immensely wealthy in trade and whose heart was as big as the Lakes of Killarney. Mr. OHara is q finished Thespian and his work is never better nor worse than is expected of him. He is F'iske O'Hara, and the world knows him for a thoroughbred.
 If the audience was disappointed in O'Hara's inability to sing at his best, it soon forgot it's regret when introduced to Patricia Clancy, as Eileen Norwood. Never was there such a colleen. Never did an audi ence want so to climb over the foot lights and gather her in it's arms as O'Hara was always doing, the stingy rogue. She made a sweet Eileen and was born for the part.
 O'Hara is assisted by a capable company, including Mary Louise Nal Joy and Lillian Shaffner, as the for tune seeking, vain girl and her moth CT; J. E. Miller, whose chief Occupa- ton was obeying his wife's com-

A Chance to Give Away Elaborate
 Gowns.
 Of course there is a measure of truth in that To be sure, I happen to know of a society in New York to which many rich women donate their gowns to be sold for small sums (which sums I believe are turned over to charity) to the young students at cOnservatories and dramatic schools who need elaborate gowns and have not the money to buy new ones. But every woman may not know about this mighty decent charity.
 I suppose in way this custom is a great help to that part of the middle class which find it such a constant struggle to keep up with appear ances and yet which couldn't accept charity

 Thnk what infinite happiness it may bring to some young married woman who buys a lovely evening gown for twenty-five or thirty dollars and daz- zlcs the neigh borhood with her splen- dor.
 Of course one feels a repugnance to wearing clothes that have been worn, but the gowns we buy from shops have often been tried on as many times as these have been worn.
