St Patrlck's s Day.

st Patrick was not an Irishman born.

sixteen years Old he was seized, with a
number of his fathers vassels, and carried
into slavery among the mountains OF Ire

Italy when Pope Celestinc awarded him
the apostolic mission of converting the
Pagan Irish 10 the Christian religion. Ac-
cordlngly ST. Patrick returned To the
c untfy OF his former bondage to break The
chains ofignorLnce and superstition which
enthralled it. He travelled the whole
island. penetrating its most hidden recess

II is said that during his pilgrimage he 50

habited the land since st. Patrick's time
In odd confirmation of this legend IL is sa I'd
that no spider ever ventures near Kings
College, Cambridge, because 1t is built OF
Irish wood. St. Patrick baptized great
multtudes in the new faith, ordained
clergy TO preach to the people, founded
Monasteries aud different orders of monks,
besides working many miracles, such as
healing the sics, storing sight To the
blind, and even raising the dead to life.
Such at least are the works ascribed TO
HIM, and devoutly believed in by his
countrymcn, and tor which his memory is
venerated even TO the present day. AIter
forty years Of faithful devotion to the good
of others, in the year 454, St. Patrick end

he was buried. After his death, the leg

Quick WORK A gentleman recently visited
a shoe factory in Lynn, Mass, and became
greatly Interested at the rapidity with which
young lady performed the work Of fastening the
tops and soles of ladies' boots together prepar-
atory to lasting. Ooe OF those having the
management of affairs expressed the opinion
that she could do twenty cases in ten hours.
The gentleman first mentioned could not credit
this, and offered to stake 81 90 against $500
that the feat could not be accomplished. The
wager was accepted, the young lady acquainted
with the facts, and asked if she could do if.
She replied that she was willing to try pro-
vided she should have a share Of the money she
should win. This was agreed to. and the task
was commenced At twelve O'Clock on the
next day she had eleven of the twenty cases
finished and packed ready for the las:er, and at
ten minutes inside the ten hours the task was
completed. The incredulous gentleman paid
the wager of one thousand dollars, and the win
ner handed the young lady five hundred of it,
This, together with the sum earned by doing
the work, made pretty fair wages for one day,
and any one can see by little calculation that
she had to keep pretty busy. There were in
each case sixty pairs, four pieces TO a pair,
making two hundred and forty pieces of leather
TO handle, and as many nails to be driven. In
the twenty cases there would be forty eight
hundred pieces TO take care Of in ten hours,
which was done; thus averaging four hundred
aud eighty per hour, or eight in one minute.

Experience has taught that the so called
lead paralysis. common among painters in the
form of loss of motion of the wrist-joints is
chiefly produced by the habit of washing the
hands in turpentine. 1t is probable that it is
not the turpentine alone which produces this
fatal result but chiefly the particles of lead
or zinc paint On the hands, which, by the
turpentine, are brought in condition TO pen
citrate the skin more readily aud to be absorbed;
therefore painters should avoid, as much az
possible, the use OF turpent;ne for washing
the hands.
"A curious experiment was tried in Russia
with some murderers. They were placed
without knowing it, in four beds, where four
persons bad died Of the cholera. They did not
take the disease. They were then told that thew
were to sleep in beds where some persons had
died Of malignant cholera, but the beds were.
in fact, new and had not been used at eli.
Nevertheless, three Of them died of the disease
within four hours.
