CHAPTER VI.
A Sundays Mixed Affairs.


The faithful lima opened the door
of Glenarm House, and after 1 had
swallowed the supper he always had
ready for me when 1 kept late hours
l established myself in comfort on the
terrace and studied the affairs of the
house of Holbrook until the robins
rang up the dawn. On their hint
went to bed and slept until lima

An old hymn chimed by the chapel

me, for the benefit of the cottagers at

The sight of bright parasols and
modish gowns, the semi-urban Sunday
that had fallen in this quiet corner of
the world, as though out of the bright
blue above, made all the more unreal

just then the door of the main hall of
Miss Pat, Helen Holbrook and Sister
Margaret and walked toward the
chapel
1t was Helen who greeted me first.
Aunt Pat can't withstand the temp
tations of day like this. We're
chagrined to think we never knew
this part of the world before!"
I'm sure there is no danger" said
Miss Pat, smiling at her own timidity
as she gave me her hand. I thought
That she wished to speak to me alone,
but Helen fingered at her side, and
1t was she who asked the question
that was on her aunt's lips.
I'VE are undiscovered? You have
heard nothing, Mr.. Donovan?"
Nothing. Miss Holbrook," I said.

Helen, who met my gaze with charm

And took account of the girl anew
as walked between her and Miss Pat,
through a trellised lane that alter
mated crimson ramblers and purple
clematis, to the chapel, Sister Marga-
ret's brown-robed figure preceding us.
The open sky, the fresh airs of morn
ing, the bird-song and the smell of
verduous earth in themselves gave
sabbath benediction. / challenged all
my senses as I heard Helen's deep

. SKIN ROUGH AS BARK.
saby Boy Had Intense Itching Humor
Scratched Till Blood Ran.
Found a Cure in Cuticura,

Our son, two years old, was afflicted
with a rash. After he suffered with
the trouble several weeks 1 took him
to the doctor but it got worse. The
rash ran together and made large
bhsters. The little fellow didn't want
to do anything but scratch and we had
to wrap his hands up to keep him
from tearing the flesh open till the
blood would run. The itching was in
tense. The skin on his back became
hard and rough like the bark of a
tree. He suffered intensely for about
three months. But I found a remedy
In Cuticura Soap and Cutfcura Oint-
ment. The result was almost mag
fcal. That was more than two years
ago and there has not been the slight
est symptom of it since he was cured.

LIQUOR THE CAUSE.
Many Cases in City Court on Friday.

An aftermath of the fair was the collection of cases that occupied the attention of the city court Friday morning. John Mcknight of East Kill lingly, 66 was fined s1 and costs, amounting to s10OS for filling up on fire water.
 Judge Russell allowed him until Saturday to get the money.
 Nelson Constant was up on two counts. He had a tent on the mid way at the fair in which he exhibited five-legged and two-headed pig, but that was not one of the offenses. He did sell whisky in the tent. however, and that cost him something when the judge heard of it-s10-and $2 more for carrying an old pistol that would not go off The costs in the case were ss.Ss Constant paid S5 down and is going to pay the balance at the rate of $2 a week
 John Lavalee for breach of the peace and interfering with Howard James was fined s and costs and will pay at the rate of $1 a week.
 Eli Berard, a blacklisted man, was up for intoxicatoin and breach of the peace, and got fine of $3 and costs, amounting to S14.09.

Sports Anxious to See Four-Cornered
 Race.

The horse race of all horse races that the public hereabouts is particu- larly anxious to see arranged is four cornered affair between the following local horses DonnybrOok. owned by Louis N Dondero; County Beater, John Curran; Robert S., James Brown, and Billiken, T. R. Sadd.
 This combination would be the best drawing card of them all. Sporting men about the street, since the race at Putnam Thursday. have suggested that it would be a good stunt for the man. agement of the' local fair to arrange this special race as q feature.
 Everyone at all interested in horses in eastern Connecticut is aware of the wonderful interest taken in the recent Donnybrook- County Beater race at Horseshoe park track and the above race. if arranged, would be of even greater interest.
 The fact that all are local horses of class and each has particularly ardent supporters is sufficient to warrant the pulling off of the race that would prove the one big noise and be the talk of horsemen for the long winter months. Billiken, which won the race in straight heats at Putnam so handi- ly Thursday, is looked upon as a great conner and it was said about the streets Friday that the three horses mentioned would have to be content to be mere trailers
