his expression.

branches, and was forced to remain until

The Order Of the Bath.

T. P. OConnor tells a good story in NJ
A. p. that he recently heard In the West
of Ireland. 1t concerns the rising little
seaside town of Lahinch, a place which
has recently developed tremendously
through the tourist and golf booms. A
few years ago the public baths, like most
other institutions in the village were very
primitive. They were situated In a little
cottage, which was just above the high
water mark. Shower baths were spe-
cialty, and they were to be had in room
which had a bath tub placed In the mid
die of the floor. On pulling string
perfect deluge of bracing sea water came
through the ceiling. lady visitor once
stood ready in the tub ana gave the dread
signal. But instead of the usual avail
anche of green water there came from
aloft the gruff voice of the fisherman
proprietor of the baths. III yen move
a taste more to the wesht, ma am" said
the voice, yell get the full benefit of
the shower" Looking up she, to her hor-
ror described the old fisherman standing
by an aperture In the ceiling and hold
ing a barrel of sea water ready for the
douchei Whether the lady moved to the
west and received the shower or not, the
chronicler does not relate. But Lahinch
has made giant strides since.
