western division, with Superintendent

A large number of infirm Roman Catholic
people from NV Haven, Hartford, Water
| bury, Willimantic and Putnam went to the
shrine of St. Anne de Beaupre, near Quebec,
| yesterday in the hope of getting cured. The
| shrine of St. Anne de Beaupre is the most
famous in America. Miraculous cures are
reported to have taken place there, and local
| Catholics have great deal of faith in the
shrine. 1t is about eight miles from Que:
bee and consists simply of q church, a hotel
and few other buildings.
A Main street druggist in Hartford adver-
tises in his window Egg phosphate, made
from fresh laid eggs" and to prove his as
sertion he exhibits hen in the same show
window. The fact that the hen devotes her
| entire time to caring for a numerous brood
of abioko uphioh form mart Of the Y
hibit, doesn't seem to affect the supply Of
eggs at all.
