Sliding Bog in Roscommon

New York, Dec. 31.-Graphic details
are being received of the devastation
caused by a moving bog in the county
! of RCscOmmon, Ireland says q Herald
dispatch from London.
The bog, which is known as that of
Cloonshiever, is three miles from Cas-
lerea. When it began to slide it moved
hree-quarters of a mile in few days,
-oEering everything in it's way with
peat and water to a depth of eight or
| ten feet.
According to reports from the scene
the peasants are surrounded on all
sides with miles of Dogs and water The
Inhabitants of. Clconshiever, a village
in the valley, of about $50 one-story
cottages, barely, escaped with their
lives, the bog having moved upon them
unaWares.
Many of the peasants houses have
continued the correspondent. wholly
disappeared, while all that is to be seen
of the others is the chimney tops. Here
and there a lifeless tree marks the spot
where titled farms have disappeared
probably forever.
At one point there is a lake of ten or
twelve acres, which had been formed in
the last few days by pent-up mountain
streams. Unless, some means is speed
lily adopted. to drain off this water it
will undermine the entire bog and
disaster may be anticipated
A later dispatch states that the lake
IS steadily extending upward toward a
number Of houses on the rising ground
The land attached to the holdings has
already been covered by the creeping
bog.

THE BACHELOR TAX
A Plan to Punish Men Who Don
Marry Revived in Indiana.

An old proiect of taxing bachelors has
Recently, been revived. When the In
diana legisla ture meets at indianapolis
/ in January it will be asked to pass
/ hin introduced by Gibson county
member ,levying a tav of 10 cents on
/ every 500 salary earned by an apie-
hodied bachelor of more than 80 VINO
receives more than 81, 600 annually. IL
is proposed to apply 10 per cent OF TINS
! revenue to the school fund and ~ per
cent to the maintenance of the various
orphans homes in the state.
indiana is not a state in which bach-
selcrs are unduly numerous. BY the last
census there were 9, 465 unmarried men
in Indiana between the ages of 40 ana
"a Abb between SO and 90 and 2.o0o
above So. a total of 1924, exclusive OF
81 5S6 bachelors between 30 and 40 who
are to fall within. the provisions of the
bill. though generally bachelors be
tween 50 and As are not deemed totally
incorrigible and hopeless.
How many of the $1,000 bachelors in
Indiana earn more than $1,000 year
and how many of them are able-bodied
are questions which could not be de-
cided offhand. But that many of them,
perhaps as many of them as 10000,
would fall within the provisions of the
proposed law seems probable, and the
school fund of the state and the or
phan asylums would, by the adoption
of this act be considerably enriched.
In New York state there are 100000
unmarried men between 30 and 45. 40,
600 between 40 and 30 and $4,000 between
% and s. There are. moreover. candor
compeIs, and feminine neglect accentu-
ates the admission 9,S00 bachelors over
Ga solutely incorrigibles.

Wondn's u)orld

low at one side. This makes the big
becoming dip over the eyebrow.
The irregular pompadour is becom-
ing TO most faces. a fact which is rec
ognlzed by artists, Who take advantage
OF It's softening traits. You will notice
now cleverly and irregularly the hair
is treated if you will look at some ideal
heads and art studies. Artists know
its identifying effects.
But don't think you can make a
pcmpadour out of i'll kept hair The
LOCKS must fairly shine, and they must
De light and free to toss and blow
BY this is not meant careless ar
Iangement. The Newport girls, with
blowing locks, and the southern girls,
with hair twisted in very careless
shock at the back of the neck. are all
ways mighty careful that the snood be
secured in place with many hairpins
and that it be arranged in the most
cscoming manner.
The coming style for the new year
calls for hair that is beautiful in it's
texture, for il is elaborate, and unless
the hair is Just right the appearance
is spoiled. Let the hair be bright and
lightly twisted. And let ii be twisted
low in the back of the neck. 1t can be
covered with an 1860 net if desired, and
this is. perhaps, the prettiest way to
fix the hair.
IF one be young and fresh, the hair
can be secured at the back of the neck.
Then it can be twisted and bundled
into net. And, finally, the whole can
be anchored to the head with many
handsome pins. This is a very becom-
ing style
Those who want TO do so can wear
front piece this year without fear
of losing it or of discovery in the wear
ing. The new pieces are so perfect
and so exquisitely pretty, in every way,
that one cannot help envying ones
neighbor the possession of them. They
are put on the head in natural man
ner. and it would take the eye of an
expert TO tell the difference between
them and ones own natural locks. (
The tendency in the new style is
toward the part. There is the 1860 part
ing. The hair is parted and the sides
are then rolled pompadour fashion.
Any woman who was a belle in 1865
will show you how.
"A less trying and more becoming
mode for the woman with good fea-
lures is the one in which the hair IS
parted in the middle and is re.igiously
waved at the sides in great big deep
waves that seem to cover the tenn
pies. To make these waves more at
tractive. few little stray curls are
allowed to creep out of the temples
the ears and the nape of the neck
1T takes bold woman these days
to expose the ears. The woman whose
ears are large should puff her hair
little over her ears and she should bury
hem in tiny little curls, combed out
loosely. They should be thin, just the
little stray locklets, curling over the
ips of the ears, that one reads ABOUT
IN poetry"

TRIBUTE TO FATHER SHERMAN.

! from Rev. T. G. Dickinson, Method

: reference to the recent mission for nom

Rev. Thomas Ewing Sherman. S. J.
The kindly and generous spirit mani

for l had wished for years to both see

GIRLS THAT ARE IN DEMAND.

The girls that are wanted are good
girls
Good from the heart to the lips.
Pure as the lily is white and pure.
From the heart to its sweet leaf tins.
The girls that are wanted are home
girls
Girls that are mothers right hand.
That fathers and brothers can trust TO
And the little ones understand.
The girls that are wanted are girls of
sense.
Whom fashion can never deceive:
Who can follow whatever is pretty.
And dare what is silly to leave
The girls that are wanted are careful
girls.
Who count what thing Will cost,
Who use with prudent generous
hand,
But see that nothing is lost.
The girls that are wanted are girls
with hearts;
They are wanted for mothers and
wives.
Wanted to cradle i'm loving arms
The strongest and frailest lives.
The clever the witty, the brilliant girl.
There are few who can understand;
But. oh, for the wise, loving home
girls
There's a constant steady demand.

PEG AWAY

Men seldom mount at a single bound
To the ladders very top;
They must slowly climb it round by
round,
With many start and stop.
And the winner is sure to be the man
Who labors day by day.
For the world has found that the safest
plan
Is to keep on pegging away
You have read, of course, about the
And the tortoise-tne. tale is old
How they ran a race-it counts not
where
And. the tortoise won, we're told
The hare was sure he had time to
pause
And to browse about and play,
SO the tortoise Won the race because
He just kept pegging away.
A little toll and-a little rest,
And a little more earned than spent
Is sure to bring to an honest breast
a blessing Of glad content.
And so. though skies may frown or
smile,
Be diligent day by day;
Reward shall greet you after awhile
If you just keep pegging away.
Exchange.

LONG WAYS FROM HOME.

Feller's sort lost away
Long ways from homei
Sadder world by night an day
Long ways from home.
Birds. they never sing as sweet
In each violet retreat;
Colder hearts and hands we meet
Long ways from home!
Even a daisy in the dew
Long ways from home!
Seems a mystery to you
Long ways from home!
An that rose, in light an gloom.
Where the sweetness of EN- bloom.
Droops, as if it dreamed of doom,
Long ways from home.
Yet the sun shines just the same
Long ways from home.
Still the red stars fade an flame
Long ways from home!
Same old sorrows-same old signs
Same old questions an replies;
But the rain is round your eyes
Long ways from home.
An we dream forevern4ore
Long ways from homei
Ola loved. unopeI1iRg door,
Long ways from homei
All the old. dear hills an streRms-
Twilight shadows morning bfams-
MAY God take us there in dreams,
Long ways from home!

hand. --I-weh remember poor wo-
| man who struggled for months with d
large washing and ironing, when she
was scarcely able to stand at the tub.
She had TO have the piano stool carried
TO the laundry to sit on while she
ironed and finally she had to give up
Ter work, for which she sadly needed
the. pay. 1t seemed a cruel thing to
let her do the work, but her children
were depending on her. OF course her
husband was OF the ordinary idle sort
whose wives go out washing. But this
is all by the way. How shall we get
the washing done? If we send the
clothes to the laundry, they come back
in ribbons, besides costing a fortune.
If the clothes were not ruined by chem
icals. if the mangle through which they
! Put the fat pieces did not wear away
half the body of the cloth and send 1t
, hack in lint we should advise the
pound laundry. But bitter experience
teaches that the laundry is the last
resort.
For twenty years of housekeeping l
used the old-fashioned \. ashing fluid
in the laundering of the household
linen. And it was u boon. The clothes
always came up sweet and clean, there
were no yellow stained pieces. and they
wore as well as when the dirt has to
be rubbed out on the board. If l were
to keep house again, | should certainly
provide washing fluid for the cleansing
of the soiled clothes. OF course, col
cred garments must not be washed in
the fluid, but only a few colored pieces
need be had. 1t requires care and judg-
ment in order to use it without injury.
If woman does not care and does not
take interest. she cannot be trusted TO
manage the washing for everything de-
Ponds on thorough rinsing. In these
days of running water and stationary
tubs. the rinsing is small matter. To
make the fluid. buy u pound can of
concentrated I've, five cents worth of
muriate of ammonia, five cents worth
of salts Of tartar. five cents worth of
borax and add If to one gallon of water.
Keep this corked in a stone jug we'll
away from the children and irresponsi-
hle persons. To use it, fill the boiler
two-thirds full of cold water. add one
fourth of a cake of soap shaved, and
one teacupful of washing fluid. Put In
the soiled clothes and boil them tWen-
ty minutes after the boiling point is
reached. Unless the clothes are very
dirty, there will be no rubbing neces-
sary. Rub anything which needs it,
and put all through three waters. The
boiling suds must be thrown out and
new suds made for the second boiler
full, but the water is cleansing for
garbage cans and cesspools, so it is not
an absolute waste. Unless the laun-
deress is thoroughly trustworthy, some
person must deal out the
fluid. as the temptation to overdo the
tightening of work is hard to withstand.

CAN'T BAR CATHOLIC JURORS.
New York Sun. Dec. 81

y
Supreme Court Justice Gaynor in
Brooklyn yesterday set aside the YER
dict for $4,000 given by ''non-Cath-
Ollie jury several days ago against Fa-
thar Eugene j. Donpelly in favor of
Title Smith. The young woman was
washing windows in one of the priest
houses when she fell from the third
story and received permanent injury
When the verdict was rendered for
mer Assistant Corporation Counsel
William G. Carr moved to have the YER
dict set aside on the ground that the
rights of the defendant had been vio-
lated, because Catholics had not been
allowed to serve on the jury. He con-
tended that the question as to the re-
ligion of the juror was an infringement
on the constitutional right Of both the
juror and the defendant Justice Cay
nor yesterday returned the papers
marked Motion granted" The case
will be tried again.

Advice Regarding courtships.

A young woman should know well
the person with whom she keeps COM
pany.
The object of courtship is marriage,
and young folks should not forget it.
Find out if your lover ever gets o
high lonesomes.'' This may pro-
valuable to woman in after life. Es
pecially she should ascertain whether
he CANDLES. This is a most pernicious
evil, particularly if he bets on a ia
vorite horse and-loses.
Call on the young lady at $50 p. m.
Be sure and duck by 1890 o'clock.
Keep all the lights in the parlor on
in full blast Avoid dark corners; also,
coy corners.
Do not hold hands. This is really a
fearful habit, and one hard to get rid
Of
Sit about twenty feet from each other
if there is room in the parlor Under
no circumstances must you sit too
close.
Avoid drives. buggy rides and walks
through lonely places.
Cut out park benches.

Learned What Made Her Fat.

Of a young doctor who has just OPP
ened an office-his first one-in the vi
cinity OF Rittenhouse square, and who
is fond of using the largest words he
can find while practicing his profess
sion. his friends tell little story. He
was visited recently by a woman who
is weather. than she is wise, but
whose patronage he was anxious to Sc
cure and retain.
The trouble is not serious" he said,
after examining the patient, ''and due
principally. 1 think, TO all excess of
adipose tissue"
MY goodness" said the woman,
awed and alarmed, perhaps it's that
that makes me so awful fat" And
the doctor was hard put to explain
without giving offense.
