Deathbed FIattery,

Almost every dying person is liable

the company and the restrained or
flowing torrents of tears and emotions
scious comedy of conceitedness. The
seriousness with which every dying
person Is treated has undoubtedly been
the very finest enjoyment of his life to
many a poor despised devil and a sort
of indemnification and partial payment
for much privation.-Works of Metz

NEWS FROM IRELAND
Pictures of Ireland.

Pictures of Ireland.
Do-you ever hear the blackbird in the
thorn,
Or the skylark rising warbling in the
morn,
With the white mists DER the mead
ows,
Or the cattle in the shadows
OF the willows by the borders of the
stream?
Do you ever see old Ireland in dream?
All, many a time,-ah many time.
Can you see the hillsides touched with
sunset gold,
And eve slow, darkling down DER field
and fold,
With the aspen trees a-quiver,
And the waters of the river
Running lonesome-sounding down the
dusly glen?
Do you think of Irish twilights now
and then?
All! many a time,-ah, many time.
Have you seen green Ireland lifting
from the sea
Her pebbled strands that join the
grassy lea?
Seen. her rocky headlands rise,
With their shoulders in the skies,
1,roo Iii
spent at their feet?
Do her brimming tides on mem'ry's S
Shorthand beat?
All! many a time,-aii, many a time
Do you ever think OF night time round
the fire,
The rosy little children, their mother
and their sire;
The cross roads and the fiddle,
With the dancers in the middle,
While the lovers WOO by moonlight in
the lane?
For Irish love has e'er your heart been
fain?
All! many a time,-ah, many a time
Have you, ever seen weenshee lepra,
chaun,-
Or the fairies dance by starlight on the
lawn!
Have you seen your Fetch go by?
Have you heard the Banshee cry
In the darkness ''ululu" and 'ula
gomez?
Have you ever back OH fairy pinions
flown?
Did you ever lift hurl in lusty joy?
Did you ever toss tie handball, man OF
boy?
Light bontires at Johns Eve,
Or the holly branches weave,
When Christmas brought the robins
and. the frost?
Has Irish laughter clleered hearts
trouble crossed?
All! many time,-ah, many a time
Did your mother by your cradle ever
Groom?
For lullaby some sweetold Irish tune;
Did an Irish love-song's art
Ever steal into your heart,
Or Irish war-chant make your pulses
thrill?
Do haunting harps yet sound from
Tara's hill?
All! many time,-ah, many time
Do you ever hear the war-cry of the
AS O'Donnel led his Kernes against tht
Pale;
The trumpet of Red Hugh.
Or the shout of "Crom~Aboo:"
AS they rushed to die for Ireland lons
ago?
Do their sword blades from the ages
flash and glow?
All! many time,-ah, many a time
'Tis not written that the Irish race for

Though tile tossing seas between then

Yea the children of the Gael
Turn to far-off Innisfail
And remember her. and hope for her

That her long, long night may blossom
