THE GIRLS OF LIMERICK.
Pretty of Face md Full of wit, Says
One Who Has Studied
Them.

IL asked "Where are the prettiest
girls in the world?" will immediate
ly reply, i'm Limerick, Ireland. There
is freshness of face, lustrousness of
eyes. healthfulness of color and com
plexion about the Limerick girls, en-
masse, that carry off the sweepstakes
trophy. The girls of Cork and of the
lakes-in fact, of the country all the
way down from Dublin-are some
what of the Limerick order. In form
they constitute happy medium be-
tween the rotund English maids
across one channel and the sylph-like
Partisan demoisselles beyond the
other, says a writer in the San Fran
cisco Argonaut. o
But the Limerick face is the per-
lection of female beauty-a human
ceramic without blemish. The Linz
erick girl is also the highest example
of exquisite wit and righteousness
an extraordinary assimilation, to be
sure. In other words, while she is not
insensible of her sparkle of words
she seems like one who has never
looked frequently into mirror. She
has regular and sometimes very pref
ty teeth; and if her nose is often in
clined to retrouSse and there is an
Irish expression of mouth" these
but adds piquancy to her other beau
tiful features.

oh. the anguish In my brain,
Almost driving me insane;
oh. the wheels that start to turning In

Like the inquisition wheels;
And my reason shakes and reels,
When Belinda starts to practice. hours

Up and down the minor scale
In a wild chromatic gale,
It'll 1 grit my teeth and shudder as ]
wish might be dead!
Oh, there's something doing there,
And tear
My hair
And swear
When Belinda starts to practice, hours
before I'm out of bed!
Heavens! will she never tire!
And threaten vengeance dire;
11url my pillow at the mirror; while the
frenzy overhead.
In another CHASTITY key.
Sails upon the wild high &C."
And Belinda starts to practicing before
I'm out of bed!
One of us must surely die
And no doubt II will be H.
For no mortal can withstand that awful
horror overhead;
Twill be sad to die, I know
But I'm quite resigned to CO.
When Belinda starts to practicing before
I'm out of bed!

Too Hard night work for n Pupil

Too Hard Night Work for Pupil.
A teacher in the Dallas county pub
lie school has received the following
letter:
''Sir: Will you in the future give my
son easier some to do at mites? This
is what he's brought hoam two or
three mites back: If fore gallins Of
bere will fill thirty to pint bottles,
how many pints and half bottles will
nine gallins of bere flip
"Well, we tried and could make
nothin' of it at all, and my boy cried
and laughed and sed he didn't dare
to go bak in the mornin' without dom
it. SO had to go and buy nine gal
lin keg of here, which / could i'll af-
ford to do, and then he went and bor-
rowed lot of wine and brandy bot
ties; we fill them, and my boy put the
numbers down for an answer. 1 don't
know whether it is right or not, as
we split some while doing it.

in water as am not able to buy more

door open, walked in upon a scene
which was, to say the least, unusual.
Mrs. barrow was repeating for the
third time snow 1 lay me down to
sleep" at the dictation of Master Dam
iel.
"And make Mommer better, and
niccs to her little boy Dannie what
the angels sended and the doctor
bringed," continued the youthful in
structor in religious training.
"Dannie, let me out. Pleased" inn
plorcd his mother.
"And make Mommer better and
more nicer to little Dannic what the
angels sended and Doctor Morrison
bringed," repeated that young man
inflexibly.
His mother mumbled il after him.
Then Master Dannie lifted up his voice
in song, probably. intent on bringing
the meeting to an appropriate end,
his clear little treble piped out:
Dare to be a Daniel.
Dare to stand alone.
Dare to have n purpose firm.
And dare to make It known"
He was proceeding to arrange terms
of personal immunity from vengeance
when Mrs. Wentworth slipped past
him and turned the key of the cellar
door. Master Daniel recognized that
his flank had been turned, and tacit-
ly admitted by attempted fight the
impending triumph of the enemy.
Like Cronje, however, he had fingered
too long in the presence of superior
force.
"The little imp"
These were, I regret to have to
chronicle, the words used by the au-
thor of "The Passing of Corporal
Punishment" as, with very red face,
she flashed past the relieving force
and swooped down upon the flying be-
sieger. Pursued and pursuer disap-
peared together into an adjoining par
Tor, whence presently issued the
sound of something falling at regu-
lar intervals upon soft substance,
accompanied by prolonged and pro-
tested youthful wall.
Mrs. Wentworth drew her own con-
illusions, smiled and withdrew from
the field of battle without the caramel
custard recipe. She had OWNED the
sad fact that in the next room a re-
version to barbarism was occurring,
and that Master Dannie was under
