FRIDAY MORNING
A trunk tournament, in whien pygmy prices play an important part—
and we add with emphasis that he who hesitates loses a good trunk It
doesn't matter whether you need a trunk just now - come and see them
any way. All of these trunks are heavy oaimtis covered, strong hard
wood slats on all—some sole leather hound, some iron bound, some have
two leather straps, heavy brass locks, some linen, some two trays .with
hat box compartment, two bottoms, one of which is sheet iron, and not
one in the lot but will defy the fiercest li ggage smasher that ever llung.
kicked or jumped on an unoffending trunk. Some of these' trunks are
great, handsome, swell.

fftreath of Scandal
Young Mrs. Yerrell leaned on the
rail of the yacht and looked with dis
uppolnted surprise at the approaching
dingey.
“There are only Hugh and your cous
in In the boat.” she announced to her
guest. “Mr. Cuthbert isn't there. I’m
so sorry.”
Her intonation implied that the sor
row was sympathetic rather than per
sonal. Sibyl Beach resented it.
“You needn’t be, Helen,” she said,
the curve of her lips straightening
firmly.
“Why, I invited him to come, partic
ularly on your account.”
“And I wanted him not to, particu
larly on my account.” said the girl,
“'Why, Sibyl, dear, 1 thought you
were such great friends or even more.”
“So did i.” There was a suspicion
of tears in the bright eyes the girl
turned to her friend. “So did 1 until
until lie disgraced himself. Oh, you'll
know all about it soon enough any
way. I may as well show you now.”
She held out a dipping froiß a week
ly publication which makes a business
of purveying social sewage to its read
ers.
“it came to me in the mail anony
mous, of course,” she said.
Mrs. Yerrell took it with an expres
sion of distaste.
“You wouldn't believe anything that
wretched paper says, I hope,” she ob
served. "Whenever I read it l feel as
if 1 needed a batli to get clean again.”
“The Era had a little notice, too, say
ing that SUI--Mr. Outlibort -was there,
and that is reliable enough. I only
wish it weren't.”
With pressed Ups and frowning brow
Mrs. Yerrell ran over the clippings. It
was a comment, less veiled than is
common with that paper, upon the
presence of Sidney Cuthbert at the fn
ueral of a woman who had once linen
well known in that dim border of the
theatrical profession where people of a
more dubious world claim habitation.
“It will strengthen Mr. t’uthbert’s
reputation for generosity among his
cluli and society friends,” commented
the paragraph, “that lie should have
borne the expense of the funeral from
his own pocket. The woman who was
once known as Viola Trevannion was
burled beside her son, whose death
two years ago was also the occasion
of a burst of mortuary generosity on
the part of young Cuthbert.”
“Isn't that a idee thing to read about
a man you had thought you could -
could at least respect'.'" said the girl
bitterly.
“1 don’t believe it* about Mr. Cuth
bert," began the oilier indignantly
when the two men came over the roll.
After Yerrell and young Dr. Dent
had greeted the two women the latter
turned to ids cousin and said:
“Did 1 hear you speaking about Kid
ney Cuthbert, Beauty?"
“You may have If you were list ell
ini'.” said the girl. “And 1 do wish,
Harvey, that you would drop that
childish nickname. I’ve outgrown it.”
“Well, 1 don’t know about your out
growing it,” said Dent, looking at her
flushed cheeks and shining eyes, “but
you certainly haven't outgrown your
childish beg pardon- your childhood
temper. But of course I’ll drop it,
Kib, if you don’t like it,” lie added
good nnturedly. “But I was Interested
in Kidney Cuthbert because 1 used to
know him when he was Typli 7 and I
was house in Sawguins.”
"What’s Sawguins?” asked Verrell
lazily from Ills dock chair. “Lunatic
asylum? And was Cuthbert one of the
numbered patients and you another?
I understood you to say you were a
house. Singular delusion.”
“Kawgums is short for St. Augus
tine’s hospital, where I disported my
self as house physician when t’utli
liort became typhoid ease So. 7,” ex
plained the young physician. “As all
the private rooms were full lie had to
go into tiie public ward and live at -S!
per day between a profane and asth
matic ear driver and a charity con
valescent.”
“Very good Jesson fn economy,” ob
served Verrell virtuously.
“lie couldn’t give many dinner par
ties and send the kind of (lowers lie
used to favor Sibyl with on that basis.
Helen, if my feet are in your way I’ll
have 'em moved,” lie concluded, bliss
fully unconscious of bis wife’s savage
glances. “Did Cuthbert like it, Dent?”
“Seemed to enjoy it tolerably after
he got convalescent. lie got up quite
a friendship with another patient
known as Tommy the Cod, presumably
because he lived in an empty fish box
down Fulton market way.”
“Don’t remember having beard Cuth
bert speak of the gentleman,” mur
mured Verrell. “Did lie ever bring
him to call, Sibyl? Helen, if you kick
(lie only husband you’re ever likely to
have on the shins lie'll rise up and de
sert you.”
“The Cod’s real name, as near as he
could tell, was Ifannigan,” continued
the physician. “Cuthbert's previous
acquaintance with liim was purely a
business one. Tommy used to sell
Cuthbert evening papers on Wall
street until one day a truck ran over
bis ankle, and when we got him here
we found he had a very interesting
ease of heart disease, so we kept him.
VVeIL _the _Cq<i . used .to give Cuthbert
THE BRUNSWICK DAILY NEWS
all tilt- news about me street' mat ne
got from his friends who used to visit
him. It meant a good deal to Cuth
bert, for he was keeping his illness a
secret for fear it would bring his moth
er back from Newport and consequent
ly didn’t have any callers-of his own.
Tommy generously loaned,him his vis
itors, and one day the superintendent,
a pious old party, came in iiniui
nounced and caught them shooting
craps on Cuthbert's cot. They had
made dice out of lump sugar, and
Cuthburt had won 8 cents, when old
Burlier raided the game. After that
tiie two pals were more cautious. One
other visitor the tied lmd was a wom
an who said she was his cousin, but
Tommy bad other ideas. Certain ac
quaintances of hers had told Tommy
that she was his mother. At any rate,
she had ‘treated hint white,’ as he in
formed me, on several occasions and
had ‘staked’ hint to a much needed
dollar more than once when he was
‘up ag’in it.’
“In those days we had n night orderly
in our ward whom 1 always meant to
poison, but somehow 1 never got time,
lie wound up a career of blunders one
night by dropping a night lamp into a
screen, and two minutes inter lie drop
ped the job of lighting the lire and
hustled to save our eases, .lust ns we
were congratulating ourselves that all
were safely out Tommy the Cod seized
the night nurse by the nock and yelled:
" ‘Where’s my pill? Where’s Typli 7?'
‘“ln the inner passage,' said the
nurse, turning white. ‘They must have
taken him out the other way.’
“The first 1 heard of it was when the
nurse came crying to me.
•“[ tried to stop him, sirs, the liitlo
heart ease No. 13, but lie broke away
from me and ran 'buck into the ward,
lie thinks Typli 7 Is in there.’
“I thought so, too, and ran for the
entrance, and ns I readied it a wall of
black smoke rolled out upon me, some
where back of which rose the voice of
Tommy the Cod, who was exhorting
his pal, awl the rattle of a wheeled
chair.
“‘Keep yer head down, buddy. Air’s
fresher near do floor. I lore’s de floor
ahead! Blast do chair! It’s stuck!’
“‘Never mind me, old man,’ 1 heard
Cuthbert say. ‘Make a run l’or it. You
can send back after me.’
“‘Not on yer life,’ began Tommy,
blit Die bra ve words ended In n pitiful,
strangling cough.
“(1 roping blindly, I stumbled upon
the chair and wiili a rush brought my
two patients out into the hall. Tom
my keeled over, and we got him (o
open air unconscious. When he came
to, Ids first words wore:
“ ‘Did yer get my pal?’
“‘l’m right here, Tommy,’ said Culli
liort, catching the boy’s hand In his
ow n.
“‘Dal’s nil right, den,’ said the Cod
contentedly. ‘But I guess I’m done.
Doy always told me Inhalin’ wasn’t
good for kids,’ lie added, with a faint
grin.
“Outlibort looked up at me appeal
ingly, I tut I lmd to shake my head.
Tommy’s diagnosis was correct. Culli
bert climbed out. of li is chair -against
my orders -and bent over Tommy.
“‘Little pal,’ lie said, ‘you saved m,v
life.’
"Tommy waved the matter away air
ily, ‘fiat’s all right. It was up to me.
Bel ween pals, yer know, yer’d have
done de same trick for me.’
“ ‘Cod knows,l’d liavetrlod. And now
there’s nothing 1 can do,’ said Cutli
bei't, his voice breaking, 'isn't there
anything, Tommy? Haven't you got
any r< lations or friends 1 could help?
I’m rich, you know.’
“‘(“wan!” said Tommy faintly. ‘ls
dat right? I Fought yer was a charity
patient.’ lie pondered for a moment.
‘There’s dat fluffy haired loidy dat:
came to see’ me last week. Klie was
pretty white to me. You might kinder
look out for her a bit. Dey said she
was me old woman, but I dumio. Wol’s
do difference?’ said Tommy the Cod
wearily. ‘She was white to mo any
way.’ And Tommy said no more.
“Cuthbert buried Tommy in style. I
went to the funeral professional in
terest, you know. Well, Cuthbert lias
been paying Ids debt to Tommy ever
since, looking after the ‘fluffy haired
loidy,’ as Tommy called her. Shu
called herself Trevannion, I believe, I
on the stage.” I
“Trevannion,” interrupted Sibyl
Beach—“ Viola Trevannion?”
“Why, do you know her?” asked her
cousin in surprise.
“Yes—no; never mind,” said Sibyl
tremulously. “Harvey, I want you to
go ashore and telegraph Mr. Cuthbert
that we—that I am expecting liim and
sign my name. You needn’t stare so,”
she added indignantly. Then she turned
and hurried below.
“Well, upon my soul!” mused Dent
as he went over the side to send the
message. “I must have done that un
commonly well.”
