WHEN IRELAND WON
BY HARRIET G. CANFIELD.

She was a dainty, little, f1axenhair-
ed woman, in just the proper setting
"a room furnished after the quaint,
old Dutch fashion, from the blue and
white to the teacups, with their wind
mill decorations. She was a woman
proud of her Holland ancestors, and
glorying in the family name Of Van
dervelde!
1t was very discouraging to the
young man sitting opposite her. He
was a big, warm-hearted quick-witted
young Irishman-Timothy O'More by
name. Poor fellow He had habit
it had grown upon him-of wishing
that the elder Vandervelde had been
born in County Cork: it would have
simplified matters somewhat.
He looked at the little woman bend
ing over the teacups and sighed.
What have YOU been doing with
yourself lately, Timothy?" she said,
passing him cup on which the Dutch
windmill was particularly noticeable.

ments," he said soberly, but there was

"Oh, they've been fruitful enough; at
least ours has! I've been studying our

A Novel Use for old Shoes.

The thrifty housewife has discov-
cred a new use for old shoes. She
makes rugs out Of them.
For this purpose she saves all her
old shoes-her husbands, the chill
dren's and her own. Even though the
soles, toes and back seams are worn
beyond redemption, that does not mat
ter. as only the uppers are of use in
making rugs.
AS fast as the shoes are discarded,
it will be a good plan to cut the tops
off, and after cleaning them lay them
carefully away in a box for future use.
The unders may then be thrown away
to avoid unnecessary accumulation.
The first step is to cut a pattern
diamond, star, square, oblong or right
angle triangle. If the latter is de-
sired, it should measure four inches
along the straight sides. Two tri-
angles can be cut from each shoe top
To make rug 22xS6 inches will re-
quire the uppers from eighteen pairs
of shoes.
For the center of the rug purchase
a piece of leather about fourteen
inches square from the cobbler or har-
ness maker. On this outline the words,
What is Home Without a Rug?"
three words to the top line, one to the
second and the remaining two to the
last line. Then proceed to cut out the
letters. 1t will be good plan to draw
the letters on paper, basting this guide
down to the leather and cutting
through both the paper and leather
with a sharp knife. Care must be
taken to leave Sits of the leather I'M
cut at intervals, or nothing except a
hole will be left when the cutting is
finished.
To lace the leather together purchase
eyelets like those used in shoes for 25
cents a box. One box contains several
hundred eyelets. By means of an awl
punch holes in the leather strips and
fasten the eyelets at the same time.
Or If eyelets are not desired, merely
punch holes with an awl and lace the
strips together with shoestrngs. Fin
ish with fringe or shoestrings. Line
the entire rug with bright red broad
cloth or flannel, slashing all the edges
to the depth of three inches for an I'M
der fringe. The red will look pretty
under the laces and lettering, and the
rug will last a lifetime.

Anyone can see," she said, that
you've rejected him."
You are mistaken" Dorothy said
gently; "a woman cannot refuse what
has never been offered her."
But you intend to! You will let
your pride-of name and ancestry
stand in the way of your happiness,
Let men tell you, dear girl, that Ireland

martyrs as your dearly beloved Hol-
land has! One can tell at a glance
that Timothy O'More has good blood

"Bravo!" Dorothy interrupted laugh
ingly. Il had no idea that you could
be so eloquent. If Timothy could
hear you praise him he would say that
you had kissed the Barney Stone. ;
All you say may be true, but a woman
cannot answer a question that has
never been asked her!'
That evening Timothy copied his
verses and posted them. He called at
the Vanderveldes in the morning, on
the way to his office. The mail had
just been delivered, and Dorothy
seemed surprised to see him so early.
She received him in the morning-room,
where there was little to remind one
of the land of bikes and wooden
shoes
"Well?" she said inquiringly.
Have you read my verses?" he
asked eagerly.
Did you send them?" she said
calmly. Il. haven't looked at the mail;
is this it?" She held up an envelope

the lines once-twice:

But what care I, unless you raise

Timothy waited in an agony of
suspense. He tried to read his answer
in her changing face; when she smiled
his spirits rose; when she sighed, his
heart sank within him. Finally she
raised her eyes and looked at him,
and he held his breath to hear what
