BUCHIERE DENIES
 THEFT 0F RINGS
Youths Under Suspicion Held for Hearing in S5,000 Bonds

Frank Buchieri, 21, of 96 Winter street, who was taken into custody few days ago on suspicion of be- ing implicated in the disposal of three diamond rings which were stolen from a Strand Theater dress ing room on June 21. faced Judge M. D. S1Xc in police court today and pleaded not guilty 10 the charge Of theft. His case was continued un- til next Tuesday in s3,000 bonds. but after court Judge Sake increased the bonds to S5,000 and made the same increase in the bonds in the case of John Wass, IS, of 302 Elm rtreet, whose case was continued yesterday until next Tuesday,
 Buchieri and Wass were without bonds this afternoon and it was not expected that they would be releas- ed before Tuesday. It was reported that Wass could have raised s3.000 but the authorities did not want him released at this time because of the possibility of important development in the case.
 This forenoon, one of the two boys who actually stole the rings, was released from police custody to be arraigned in juvenile court later, while his companion was taken to the State School for Boys at Meri- den. He has been on parole from the school and the theater theft au- tomatically sent him back for vio- lation of parole. It was he who handled the improvised wire hook with which the handbag containing the rings and s52 was taken out of the dressing room, according to the authorities

Advice to Girls
By ANNIE LAURIE
NEAR ANNIE LAURIE:

I am a girl past nineteen
years Of age and have been going
with a boy twenty-three. lie says
that I am the only girl, but he is
so Jealous. He finds all kinds of
fault with me and it seems that
every two or three weeks he
simply must have a quarrel. L
have tried in every way TO con.
vince him that he is wrong and
has no cause to be jealous. I love
him, but / feel that l could never
live with him or be happy. Please
tell me what to do. BLONDE.
BLONDE: Really. I don't see how
~ you can love a man who dis
trusts you. my dear. True love Is
founded on absolute faith. and If
there is no deep abiding faith, there
is no real love. Some women are
UNNECESSARILY flattered to be the
object OF a mans jealousy, but they
find as the years roll by that the
jealousy is not love, and it becomes
boresome and tireSOme. It's really
IN acknowledgement Of a mans in
'eriOrity and supreme selfishness.
Your life would be utterly miserable
if you married a man Of this type.
So, I'd think a long time. were I in
your place, my dear, before I gave
him my life. Your letter doesn't say
whether you are engaged or not. If
you are not, then you should Guilt
vate your other friends and try to
forget.

q AURA kEENE, famous actress,
was born In England, but it
A was in America that she was
destined to live the greatest part
Of her life and enjoy fullest success.
AS manager Of her own companies,
she revived Shakespeare and the
classic drama in America as well as
presented for the first time contem-
porary plays especially written for
her by aspiring young authors.
But life itself was to write for
Laura Keene her most dramatic
part-was to cast her as a principal
in one of the most moving tragedies
Of history; for it was while she was
performing Our Country Cousin" in
Ford's Theatre in 1865 that PreSi-
dent Lincoln was assassinated.
This tragedienne Of history was
born in London in 1926. Her first
venture on the stage was made with
the company OF Madame Vestris. a
successful actress-manageress. 1t
was here that the theatrical novice
learned the rudiments of her trade
and developed the ambition, realized
later in America, to preside similarly
over her w company.
An early marriage in England
with John Taylor. no less a person
age than the nephew of the Duke
Of Wellington, had brought trials
and tribulations. Miss Kenne never
discussed her domestic woes, but her

Thai Georges was so near to the

far to fathom that reason. The time

to have that knowledge. He wanted

called the tangled four-sided affair

Cushions for Use or

and you are perfectly safe in buying

Cushions should be both beautiful
to look at and also comfortable to

better than a lot Of small ones which

But several sizes are usually re-
quired, so that the little cushion can
be placed right under the neck. or
in the middle Of the back, and really
encourage relaxation. y very large
cushion, twice the size Of the aver
age square one, makes a comfortable
foot-rest, and is softer in appearance
than the upholstered hassock.
For the living con cushions Of
velvet, tapestry. silk. or cretonne
are suitable. Materials should be
cleanable, because cushions soil

The Shadow-Children Console
with the Blue-Plate Dragon.

~ o YOU believe in dragons? If
you don't it IS too bad, for
dragons are very agreeable
creatures, despite their bad reputa-
ton, as you would soon discover, if
you could only manage to meet one.
The trouble Is that nowadays
dragons are very shy. Hardly any
one ever sees them anymore. Mil,
Flor, Hand, Yam and Knarf-the
five little shadow-children with the
turned about names-saw one. Eut
then, shadows are hardly anyone.
They met this dragon in the fol-
lowing Having nothing
better to do one day they jumped
into the blue china plate that vas
setting on the table. Instead of land
ing on the plate, as little real-chil-
dren would, they landed in it, and
went running down the road that
led to the Chinese garden that was
painted on the plate. The road led
over a hill and up to the edge Of a
little woods. Here the shadOw-chil-
dren sat down on a long bench from
the end of which hung a Chinese
lantern.
Its quite quiet here said Yam.
"You don't hear q sound" said
Flor.

sound" added Mi, who being F1or's
twin always agreed with him.
Its as still as anything" said
Hand.
Knarf stood up on the bench and
saZed around. There's not a single
thing to be SEEM he said.
Just then the bench shook and
the five little shadow-children tum-
bled off. When they picked them
selves up again they saw to their
establishment that the bench was no
bench at all, but a Chinese dragon.
