The National Cloth of Ireland.

AS far back as the history of Ireland
can be traced in writings mention is
made of coarse woolen cloth woven by
the people of the country and known to
them as frieze. The name is said to be
drawn from the ancient Frisa in the
Netherlands, whence possibly the art of
mote, however, IS the period When frieze
was first made in Erin that no one can
tell when or where or by whom it was
originally spun. Century after century,
so long that the mind of man runneth
not to the contrary, it has been the ma
tional cloth of Ireland, the distinctive
dress of patriot, peasant and peer. and
since the Seventeenth century an out
ward badge of the peoples aspirations
for nationality. ty.-Donohoe's Magazine.

II You Follow This Advice You Will Be
Sure to Prosper.
Don't keep any kind of stock in a
semi-starying condition. 1t is poor
economy and no farmer will subject
his stock to such cruelty, unless he has
heart as hard as Pharaohs.
Don't keep a worthless dog, and by
the way, there are but few of any
other kind. 1t costs about as much to
keep dog as it does calf, and the
latter may be worth forty or fifty
dollars when three years old, and is not
likely to go off on sheep-killing ex-
petition.
Don't burn green wood. There is no
economy in it, and it is easier for a
camel to go through the eye of needle
than-for your wife to look pleasant
while trying to cook with such wood.
Don't fail to '.let your face be like
the morning while -the.-days are going
by" and speak an encouraging word
and lend helping hand to your neigh
bors whenever you can. Be honest and
upright in all your transactions.
Don't be Careless. Such farmers can
not prosper even though they work
hard and have a good deal to say about
"hard times" 1t is easier to repair
bridge or stable floor than an injured
horse. 1t is cheaper to keep the har-
ness and buggy in good repair than to
purchase an artificial limb for yourself
or wife, after an accident. 1t is better
to keep the outlet of tile drain open
than to have to do all the work over
after it becomes imperative. Don't let
mowers, harrows, scythes, forks, ETC.,
remain where stock will get hurt on
them, but strive to keep everything in
apple-pie order.
Don't put all your eggs in one basket,
or in other words, don't make too much
of a speciality of any one thing. Should
you make speciality of hogs, the chol-
era might get among them and cause
such complete devastation as to leave
you nothing for your summers work
but experience and sad recollections,
while, were you to put all your trust in
sheep, foot-rot or paper-skin or some
thing else might develop among them
and so thoroughly disgust you with
sheep husbandry as to cause you to
abandon the business entirely. Have
a variety of stock. Keep hogs to con-
sumo your soft corn, dishwater and sur
plus milk; sheep to keep down weeds
and briars and pasture on lands insult
able for other stock; cattle to convert
the straw stacks into beef and fertil-
izer; chickens and turkeys to eat grass
hoppers and pick up loose grains of
corn; and colts to turn your hay and
oats into ''b;g money Frank Leslie,

Changing Demands. in Restaurants.


A restaurant waiter in this city says:
''There are some things about peoples
habits of eating that defy explanation.
For instance, Monday is known in the
restaurants as sandwich day, for twice
as many sandwiches are sold then as on
any other day of the week, and what is
still more curious, more corned beef is
called for on Monday than at any other
time. Saturday is devilled-ham day, for
two orders of devilled ham will be called
for on Saturday to one on Monday,
though why no human being can guess.
Sometimes a most unexpected demand
will be made for particular kinds of
food. Some days everybody that comes
in will want custard pie, and the next
day, he will not need to cut single
slice. On. good Friday, 1888, we had
not made much preparation fora meat
dinner, not expecting to do anything in
that line, and, to the establishment of
everybody in the place, there was more
meat sold than on any other day in the
year. 1t seemed as if all the infidels in
town came in and called for meat to
show defiance Of the day."-St. Louis

most people would prefer to feed but

the first few days do not gorge them

The early years Of my manhood were
spent in Pittsburgh as molder in one
of her oldest stove foundries.
And happy days they were-full Of
hard work and honest pride in my
young wife, my strang arm and my
skill in throwing a patternf
But that's neither here or there.
What you wish to know is the story
of the struggle that well-nigh ended in
my being thrown alive into the blast.

called the tall, red-headed Scotchman
who tended the blast cupola, was start

days led to the cupola room, with his
wheel barrow loaded with pig iron.
Close behind him was stretch of
new wall that the masens had just put
up, and left without tying" just then
strong breeze sprung up, and saw
that the wall was beginning to topple.
l yelled to the man to get out of the
way but he did not hear me, on ac-
count of the wind, and the next breeze
tumbled the upper part of the wall pell-
nell upon him, as supposed, but on
reaching the spot / found that, as he
had been close to the wall, most of the
bricks had been blown over him.
His head seemed badly crushed. and

They had carried ''Old Cupola" into

The doctor directed me to sponge the
blood from Cupola's head.

least he ''came to-" and l was the first
man he set eyes on.
Whether or not that had anything to
do with the nub of my story, don't
know. You must be the judge of that.
When the doctor had finished patch

serious wound was across the top of the
mans head, where the edge of brick
had left long dent or crease; but that

like brain fever set in, he couldn't see

the little things that my wife sent and
