Creates
An Appetite

There is nothing for which we recommend Hoods
Sarsaparilla with greater confidence than for loss
of appetite, indigestion, sick headache and other
troubles of dyspeptic nature. In the most natural
way this medicine gently tones the stomach, assists
digestion, and makes feel real hungry"
Ladies in delicate health, after taking Hoods sar-
saparills few days, find themselves longing for
and eating the panest food with unexpected relish
and satisfaction. Try it.

One of the greatest hardsn1ps OF the
grain growers of Russia is the want of ad-
equate means for storing and transporting
their produce. At certain periods of the
year such quantities are brought to the
rail~ays that sufficient number of wagons
for transport is not to be had, nor are the
in sacks in the open, exposed to rain and
snow, much of it becomes damaged and
worthless.

CHAPTER xLvIL-THE wIFE's RETURN.

OF course Mrs Vimpany was quite
right. Iris had gone back to her husband.
She arrived, in fact. at the cottage in the
evening just before dark-in the falling
day, when some people are more than
commonly sensitive TO sights and sounds
and when the eyes are more apt than at
other tunes TO be deceived by strange ap-
pearanceS. Iris walked into the garden,
finding no one there. She opened the door
with her own key and let herself in. The
house struck her as strangely empty and
silent. She opened the dining-room door;
no one was there. Like all French dim
iug-roomS, it was used for no other pur-
pose than for eating, and furnished with
little more than the barest necesSaries.
She closed the door and opened that of the
salon: that also was empty. She called
her husband; there was no answer. She
called the name of the cook; there was no
answer. 1t was fortunate that she did
not open the door of the spare room, for
there lay the body of the dead man. She
went upstairs to her husbands room.
something lying on the table-a photo
graph. She took it up. Her face became
white suddenly and swiftly. She Shrek
ed aloud. then dropped the picture and
fell fainting to the ground. For the pho
tograph was nothing less than that of her
husband. dead, in his white grave-clothes,
his hands composed, his eyes closed, his
cheek waxen.
The cry fell upon the ears of Lord Harry,
who was in the garden below. He rushed
into the house and lifted his wife upon the
bed. The photograph showed him plainly
what had happened.
She came to her senses again, but seeing
her husband alive before her, and remem-
bering what she had seen, she shrieked
again, and fell into another swoon.
"Wnat is to be done now?" asked the
husband. What shall tell her? How
shall make her understand! What can

of business brought up before the committee
was the recent attempt of high school stu
dents to gain possession of coming examina-
ton papers. This matter is still held under
consideration and will not be settled till fur
Their investigation has been given. There were
no names of scholars submitted or anything
of character to make the matter indi-
vidual. The next meeting of the
board of education will be held
next week Thursday night unless special
meeting be called this week. This is very
possible, as this affair has grown to such
proportions with the public that prompt
action may be considered necessary. The
public opinion seems to DO that it Is a matter
most serious and one that ought to be in
vestigated thoroughly and dealt with sum
marily, If needs be. There are several pupils
of the school at present who live from day
to day in state Of feverish anxiety, uncer-
tain as to what their fate may be owing to
their connection with the affair.
Punderson and Mathewson Of the class of
80, the former chairman of the Promenade
committee and the latter president Of the
class were present at the early part of the
meeting and explained the matter of the sale
of tickets for the promenade so satisfactorily
that no interference will be made on the
part of the committee. Among the other
business transacted was the award of con-
tract for the supply Of free text books.

STONY CREEK.

The County Commissioner Decide an
Interesting Liquor License Case
Good News for Cottagers and Sum.
mer Boarders.
The county commioners have refused the
application of Mrs Henry BONN of Branford
for license to sell intoxicating liquor at
Stony Creek This case has been before the
commissioners for several weeks, the final
hearing having been held on April 5. The
applicant proposed to open a saloon at the
junction of the roads leading from Frink's
hotel aud the Island View house. The prem
Uses are owned by Mr.. Henry Clark, who
formerly kept a saloon there and whose ap-
plication for a renewal of his license was re-
fused last December. Mr.. BONN is running
q saloon in the village of Branfosd, and Sc
curing the services of Attorney Edmund
Zacher, made strong fight to obtain this
license.
The CAGE has attracted good deal of at-
tention and the decision Of the commission
ers has been awaited with much interest
The opposition came not only from the
Stony Greek residents but also from those
who occupy cottages at this popular resort
during the summer months. It was shown
to the commissioners that the recent open
ing of the quarries has brought into
the community large number of foreign
lsborers, many of whom, when the opportu-
nifty offers, are in the habit of using intoxi-
cants to excess. 1t was therefore claimed
that the proposed saloon would mako the
vicinity dangerous and disagreeable to the
ladies and children residing In the adjacent
hotels and cottages. 1t was also shown that
directly opposite the proposed saloon is a
bathing beach used by boarders from the
Three Elm house and Frink's hotel.
Attorneys Livingston w. cleveland and
John c. Gallagher appeared for those who
objected to tho granting of the license
Among those who testified for the applicant
were ex-Postmaster William T. How'd and
Postmaster Henry D. Linsley. Among those
who opposed the granting of the license
were ex Mayors George R. Curtiss and Isaac @
Lewis of Meriden, Rev. ]. q. Chaplin, who
represented Meriden in the last legislature,
w. J. Clark of Southington, and Squire
Holdworth, foreman of the Norcross Broth
ers' quarry. The announcements of the de-
cision will be good news to those who wish
to keep Stony Greek free from saloons.

Omcer Nichols Arrest.
ibid 70 git iti Did he see YOUR "Naw."
This was part Of q conversation held last
evening between two boys, young in years
but with considerable experience in sin. 1t
was held in the alleyway on State street be-
tween $40 and 374 and hsd reference 20 a
small toy cart stolen from the and 10 cent
store across the way and which the nine year
Thomas MoGrail was carrying. They believed
themselves safe here and had not looked for
the coincidence of Officer Nichols being In
there trying one of the side doors In the
allsyway. The officer took both of the boys
In charge, who began laying the crime upon
each other, but he finally allowed the one
named Noble to 60. and with NeGrail went
up to the police station. 1t was q rather
amusing sight and drew large crowds in its
wake to see the big officer with the wagon
in question in one hand and the tiny
offender held firmly by the other. McGrail
has no father, his mother living at 70 Oak
street and brother in the orphan asylum.
He went through the ordeal of Lieutenant
Wrinn's searching questioning with stolid-
ity and indifference worthy of an old hand at
thieving and all this at nine years of age.
The manager of the five and ten cents store
complains that he loses something of his out
side display every evening by the gang of
young boys who infest the neighborhood.
