The Banshee's Warning.

Michael Phelan, the vigilant night
watcbman at the Planters house, tells
some queer stories Of his experiences in
Ireland before he decided to emigrate:
"Once | saw a banshee II was many
years ago, in Kings county, Ireland,
about forty miles from Dublin. During
the summer months there the twilight Is
very long, and late one afternoon. when
the sun had gone down. happened TO
walk over to the farm of q man named
Michael Burns. Well, as We stood and
talked. my friend suddenly said: Mike,
do you want 10 see banshee? OF course
| did, and when / looked where he
pointed, sure enough, there in the lane,
creeping along near the hedge, was a wee

high. 1t looked like little giIl only its
hair. which was long and yellow, fell
down its back clear 10 the ground, and as
it crept along il whimpered anG .noaned
just like a child in pain. NJ friend
looked very grave, SAYING: That's a
family banshee, and I'm afraid some Of
my relations are going 10 be sick.
Pretty soon ! left, but not before a
neighbor had come riding up and told
told my friend to make haste, as his
mother had been taken very i'll. The
next day learned that the poor woman
had died before her son reached her.
Oh, the banshees are queer things, and
they never let any one come near them.
Another man / knew came across one
sitting in a corn field, near the fence
When he suddenly appeared il ran out Of
sight among the corn, but it dropped its
comb from its yellow hair. and the man
picked it up and put it in his pocket.
That night the banshee came near the
house and whined so piteously that the
man dropped the comb out Of the win
dow. The hanshce then left. and when
a search was made pext morning it was
found that the comb had disappeared,

The "BlessIng" Dying Out.

The custom of blessing food, or asking
a blessing upon meals when eaten, 10
dying out. Probably the cause Of this
decadence Of very charming domestic
custom is due to clearer conception Of
relative values in these days. The ques-
tion is forced upon people Of religious
sentiment why food is more 10 be con-
sidered blessed than clothes, or books, or
dozen other good things. The result is
that such religious customs fall away a.
together. Home life is certainly none
the sweeter, unless some substitute can

hard and business like. Perhaps the GUS
tom Of the Norwegians to dance ON the
green sward after meals would be more
TO our taste and improvement. Better
still probably is the custom before meals
