CHILDREN TORTURED.
Girl Had Running Sores from Eczema
Boy Tortured by Poison Oak
Both Cured by Cuticura.

Last year, after having my little
sician for an obstinate case of &C.
zema, l resorted to the Cuticura Rem
edies, and was so well pleased with
the almost instantaneous relief afford
ed that we discarded the physicians
prescription and relied entirely on
the Cuticura Soap Cuticura Oint-
ment, and Cuticura Pills. When we
commenced with the Cuticura Rene
dies her feet and limbs were covered
with running sores. In about six
weeks we had her completely well,
and there has been no recurrence of
the trouble.
In July of this year little boy
in our family poisoned his hands and
arms with poison oak, and in twenty
four hours his hands and arms were
a mass of torturing sores. We used
only the Cuticura Remedies, washing
his hands and arms with the Cuticura
Soap and amounting them with the
him the Cuticura Resolvent. In
about three weeks his hands and
arms healed up. So we have lots of
cause for feeling grateful for the Gu
ticura Remedies. We find that the
Cuticura Remedies are a valuable
household standby, living as we do
twelve miles from a doctor. Mrs. Liz

faith to the people. After Oisin told
his wonderful story to the clerics Pat
rick took him by the hand and led
him the ways to Ath Cliath, where for
three days Oisin listened to Patrick
of the bells preaching to the princes
and to the people.
On the fourth day of the preaching,
when Patrick was getting ready to
baptize the people it's what he said
to Cisin:
Come out now with the others, son
of Finn, till | baptiZe you and save
you from the torments Of hell, for If
you are not baptized you can never
enter heaven"
But tell me first, Patrick of the
white book, where are the Fianna-
my son, Oscar of the strokes. Art
Garriada, the victorious, Caolite, son
of Roman, and Finn, my father-are
they in your heaven?"
NO" answered Patrick, their likes
would not be let into heaven, they
died unbaptized. They are prisoners
in deep hell, suffering the torments
OI IRE.
A spot of red anger burned on
either cheek of Oisin, and it's what he
answered.:
Then keep your heaven for your
self, o Patrick of the crooked staff,
and for the likes of these i'll singing
clerics; as for myself, | want none
of it. l will go to this hell you speak
about to be with Finn, my father, and
my son, Oscar, and the friends of my
youth"
And Oisin could not understand at
all the tears in Patrick's eyes nor the
trouble in his voice as the saint an
swered him:
THE mercy of God is more wonder
full than all his works. Oisin, this
night you will be christened with
Finn, your father and with your loved
comrades of the Fianna4 your high
loyalty to them has conquered heaven.
Come with me now to the ford"
AT that he led the old pagan's falter-
ing steps into the shallow stream and
baptized him there When that was
done he bade Olson return to the wa
ter's edge and wait for him there.
But Patrick remained in the water
praying. Three times he raised his
arms toward heaven, then bowed his
head again and waited.
When he did that heavy, luminous
mist settled on either bank of the
stream. Presently the figure of
giant warrior with shield, and sword,
and spears of ancient make, stood at
the rivers edge outlined against the
mist. And Patrick knew by the kings
crown that was upon the warriors
forehead that it was no other than the
great Finn, son of Cumhull himself,
that was in it. And the warrior came
into the stream and bent his knee be-
him there. Then followed Oscar of
the strokes, and Cairrioll of the white
skin, and Faolan the liberal, and
Conan of the sharp tongue, and
Caoilte of the flaming hair, and his
seven sons. And as each passed he
bent his knee in the flood and Patrick
sprnkled the water on his forehead
and spoke the words that changed
him into child of God
When the last figure melted away
into the haze Patrick knew that his
task was ended. But as he turned
to regain the bank a resplendent fig
ure stepped forth to meet bin. OF
all the men Patrick had ever seen in
the world, this one was the Stateliest

It's given up by every one that Pat
rick of the bells was the most won
derful saint that ever lived for work
ing miracles, and the one l am going
to tell you about now was the great
est miracle of them all.
Long ago, and a very long time
ago entirely it was when Finn Mac
Cumhull and the warriors of the
Fianna ruled from their kings dun at
Almhuin over the pleasant province
of Leinster. Three score captains
there were of the Fianna and five
score champions followed every cap
tain when he went to the wars. And
the like of these men for heroes
the world has never seen before or
since. Seven feet tall was Mime, the
smallest of them all, and the handle
of his spear was just a young ash

and comeliest. It's more than seven
feet tall he was, and the hair of his
proud head fell like Furnished gold
to his shoulders. Upon his brow was
a golden tillet, and a collar of red gold
encircled his neck. Patrick knew we'll
that it was Oisin and no other that
stood before him. AS the saint gazed
the apparition raised it's right hand
high above its head with the open
palm toward Patrick. And it's how
it stood there smiling a little minute
and then disappeared through the
cloud the way the others had gone.
AS it did that the mists lifted, and
Patrick went out to where the figure
of the old man was lying, and it's how
he lay with his lips to the ground and

TAKES ANOTHER TURN
FrankIyn A. Taylor Will Be
 Brought in as Trustee.

The fight in the Apothecaries' Hall
 Go took an unexpected turn to-day
 which switched it onto Franklyn A.
 Taylor, trustee of the estate of the late A. E. Rice, one of the founders of the Apothecaries' Hall Co. To-
 days development was an applica- ton which was filed with the probate
 court by Colonel Burpee, counsel for I. P. Kellogg, president of the com pany, for an order to bring MT Tay- Tor into court and have him hand
 over the estate and explain why he
 has not done so long ago.
 The applicant states that the late
 F, B. Rice was executor of the es-
 tate of his father, A. E. Rice, and that on April 8, 1893, he filed an in-
 ventory with the court showing the property to consist of real estate
 worth $15.000. personal estate of | $74,491.31, making total of $89,- 591.31. Of this personal estate there were 409 shares of stock of the Apothecaries' Hall Co appraised at $30,675. The terms of the will of
 A. E. Rice left house on Church
 street to his widow, Sarah Houghton
 Rice, and an annuity of s1,300, the
 remainder of his property to be di- vided among his children share and
 share alike.
 On February 19, 1894, the execu- tor filed report showing that he
 had made some division of the prop erty. On May 20, 1898, he filed a further report showing that the
 homestead was still in his possession
 along with the 409 shares of stock. On April 22, 1905, the executor
 died, and in February of the follow ing year began the fight for the con- trolling interests in the concern,
 which has not fairly started, though
 there has been considerable and
 costly litigation. A. E. Rice, son of F. B. Rice, insisted he had stepped itno his fathers shoes and therefore
 was executor and trustee of his
 grandfather's estate and had a right to vote on the 409 shares of stock MT Kellogg insisted otherwise and the upshot was that on July IT, 1906, MT Taylor was appointed trus- tee on the estate of A. D. Rice. He immediately took possession of some $2,100 in cash and the homestead
 on Church street, and, of course, the famous 409 shares of stock.
 Mrs Sarah Houghton Rice, widow of A. D. Rice, died on October 21. 1906, and thereby terminated MT Taylor's trust. Nevertheless, the ap-
 plicant states that MT Taylor has
 never filed an inventory of the es
 tate or any account of his trustee
 ship, and that it was about time he
 should do so in order that the estate
 may be divided. There will be a
 hearing on the matter in a week.

THE HALF HOLIDAY
Much Interest in Action Mer-
 chants Will Take.

The half holiday question in the stores is interesting and the public is curious to know what conclusion the merchants will arrive at. Many claim that inasmuch as the factories close at noon on Saturday 1t would be better all around to have the stores close up too, thus giving the whole community a day and half in one continuous stretch. This would enable families to make trip to the shore and return on time to go to work Monday. On the other hand it is said that Saturday after noon and evening are the principal shopping times for the wives of a goodly number of working people and that 1t would be hard to accus- tom them to making their purchases any other day. It is also hinted that considerable number of merchants feel that they are not doing justice to themselves in closing as often as they do under the present method, because much trade that naturally would go to them is necessarily di- rected elsewhere. Don't you know" said merchant to repre- sentative of this paper, that 1t means whole lot in dollars and cents to those who keep open all the time when we add another halliday to our closing schedule. Men who have accumulated fortunes can af- ford to close when they please, but 1t is quite different with dealers who are paying enormous prices for rent, light and help and have to make ends meet out of what they can get in a market where competition is pretty brisk.'
 When 1t was first proposed to close one night week some laughed at the proposition and thought they could not do business successfully on such plan, but after they had tried 1t and found that they were needless ly alarmed, 1t was an easy matter to have them agree to make it two nights a week and so on until it got so that the stores open but two nights in each week, and while a few think it hurt them, the general opinion lis that on the whole 1t prov ed beneficial and it is doubtful if even one merchant would care to re- turn to the old plan of six nights a week.
 One thing in favor of the Saturday afternoon proposition is that 1t would get all out together, the clerks in the stores and the help in the factories. In most families some are employed in the factories and others in stores and the half holiday coming on diff ferent. days makes 1t rather unpleas- ant, because meals have to be pre- pared for those who are working while if all were of at the same time many could turn the key in the door and get away into the open for at least one whole day. Of course if the stores should close Saturday afternoon they would have to keep open Friday evening until 10 or II o'clock.
