CURED BY THE RELIC OF ST.
ANNE.

Little George Francis Harrington,
whose lower limbs have been paralyzed
for the last three years, discarded the
cumbersome steel braces, which he hss
b en- compelled to wear in order to
walk, on Friday. He had been treated
unsuccessfullv hy the physicians Of q Q
Orlhopedic Hospital and others in
New York. Finally, on Friday
last, his mother decided to take
her son, who was suffering Intense
agon, to the little church CT ST. John
the Baptist to imriore the aid of tho
good St Anne in behalf Of her crippled
child.
Mrs Harrington had heard of the
many miraculous cures wrGusht by ST.
Anne on those who looked with faith
upon the sacred relic, and her little
boy waa confident that the saint would
do something TO relieve his pain. Ac-
cordingly be and bis mother made the
pilgrimage to the little church aud
united their prayers for the iutetces-
sion of the good saint.
Hardly mad the relic heen applied
before little George turned to his
mother and said:
"Motber, dear, l guess you can taSe
off The irons now. Good ST. Anne has
driven away the psin anl made my
legs strong again"
With many misgivings Mrs. Harling-
ton removed the braces, and TO her
surprise and joy, saw her boy standing
unsupported and walking about for
the first time in three years. Saturday
he was rs lively as cricket, and cele-
brated not only the nations birthday
of liberty, but his own freedom from
irksome fette:s. Saturday afternoon
he and his mother took ride to the
Battery in that joy to the hearts of
the far east and west sides, an open
car. Mrs. Harrington believes implic-
itiy that the cure was wrought By
the good saint.
