The clipping of a horse in the early

leading veterinarians to be as essen

France have been clipping their
horses for many years, and American
farmers are not slow to realize its
advantages. A clipped horse dries
out rapidly after hard days work,
freshed for the work the following
day. An unclipped horse Is liable to

BELL Fifteen CENTURIES OLD.

The bell Of ST. Patrick, which is
preserved in Dublin museum, was
brought to America to the Worlds
Fair and was seen by many Canadians
visiting st. Louis. The bell possesses
an unbroken history Of nearly fifteen
hundred years.
1t is of the type Of those which
were rung by hand from the windows
Of the watch tower, and was probably
used by St. Patrick to call the faithful
together.
1t is made of iron, riveted at the
sides and bronzed both inside and out.

dipping the bell in molten bronze. A

of the shrine shows an indented i'm.

shrine bears the following inscription:

PROPERLY a Universal HOLIDAY.

st. Patrick's day is universal
holiday. The world honor's Ireland's
patron saint for the splendid qualities
his people have drawn from his teach
ings.
Irishmen rejoice that they have
kept the splendid traditions OF their
race through seven hundred years of
oppression.
But holding to these principles has
exiled them. They are a liberty-lov-
Ing people and the love OF liberty
has sent them far from Erin.
But other nations have reaped the
benefit of their exile The Irish have
contributed to the civilization, the
courage and progress of the world.
There were with Washington one
hundred and twenty-five years ago.
Montgomery died for America under
Quebec, and Sullivan and Morgan did
their full duty with American land
forces, while Barry and other Irish
men flew the flag of the American
revolutionists from his ship.
They were with Dewey at Manila.
They are an important and useful
force in American citizenship.
That's why all Americans are in
clined to join with their fellow citi-
zens of Irish birth or parentage and
celebrate st. Patrick's day.

DID GREAT AND NOBLE WORK.
Labor of st. Patrick Conferred Bless
inqs on huma anity

st. Patrick did a great and noble
work in Ireland-great for the church,
for humanity and for his own immor
tai reputation.
He founded three hundred and
siXty-fve churches, ordained three
hundred and sixty-five bishops and
three thousand priests.
We are told that he baptized seven
Irish kings at once. Whoever has
read very much about the old Irish
kings and their dispositions will real
ize that it took a very forceful man
to get seven of them together and
keep them alive long enough to bap-
tize them.
st. Patrick chose for his labors a
race worthy of his enthusiasm and
affection. No race ever received the
gospel with greater joy and willing
ress than the Irish people. Innumer-
able religious houses were founded
by the Celtic missionaries-amon
them the famous monastery founded
by the Irish monk, st. Columbia, on
the little island of Iona, which was
destined to become a world renowned
center of Christian learning and zeal.
From this little island, for two CEN
turies, Christianity was spread per-
sistently among the heather people in
all directions.
The Irish sent devoted missionaries
throughout the Pictish highlands. far
Off into the forests of Germany where
the Druids were still killing human
sacrifices and into the Businesses of
the Alps. Wherever men were living
as heathens and savages priests to do
missionary work were sent out by the
Irish church-thanks to the sowing Of
the seed by the great st. Patrick

st. Patrick's Day Card Party.


A card party is always enjoyable,
and the invitation for a card party
given on st. Patrick's day might be
illustrated in water color or line draw
ing, with pictures of toads, snakes,
etc, jumping into the sea and swim
ming away.
The scheme for the house decoration
should be in bright emerald green,
and it is very effective and combines
with white nicely The Irish flag
should be a prominent feature, and
pots Of shamrocks on each table
would be very suitable.
The tally cards may be procured in
the shape of a shamrock leaf or they
could be decorated with water color
sketches of Irish poetry, or could be
miniature Irish flags. The prizes
should be wrapped in green paper and
tied with green ribbon.
Appropriate prizes would be Irish
landscapes, framed in green; jewelry
in emerald settings or in frog or snake
designs; st. Patrick's candy boxes, or
tiny ferneries with green growing
plants.
The refreshment table may be
dressed in variety Of ways. Either
with white cloth and green decora.
tions, or with green doilies laid right
Cn the oak or mahogany. A gigantic
pot of shamrocks in the center, and
with low vases containing the green
blossoms of mignonette or maiden
hair or asparagus ferns combined with
white roses.
The following menu carries out the
green effect most admirably:
Fish Croquettes Served on Mounds OF
Parsley.
Fresh Peas in Pattie Moulds.
Potato and Celery Salad Served on Let
tuce Leaf with Green Mayonnaise
Olive Sandwiches (tied with green rib
bOn.)
Small Cucumber Pickles.
Pistachfo Ice Cream Garnished with
Small Shamrocks Cut Out of Citron.
Green Punch Cakes in Green Paper
Cafe Noir, with Whipped Cream, Tinted
Light Green.
Green BOnbonS.
There are playing cards with backs
either would be appropriate.
A novel way to determine the first
partners is to have two tally cards
made in one piece Cut this in the
center thus cutting the design,
whether landscape or figure drawing,
just in half. 1t is most interesting to
see what funny combinations happen
when the wrong halves are put to-
gether.

Entertainment That Can be Given
With Little Trouble.

A clever entertainment for March
is to celebrate ST. Patricls day with
a unique house affair. which can be
arranged without much fuss and feath-
ers or on as elaborate a scale as de-
sired.
A church or charity entertainment
can reap a harvest by charging
small fee and additional for meals, or
a larger one might include refresh
ments.
Portieres and window draperies
OF emerald green cheese cloth or
crepe paper will pay for the trouble,
and the cloth can be utilized after
ward in housekeeping uses. Irish
flags should wave from every avail
able space.
Oxalis can be used to simulate
shamrock and a pot enveloped in
white crepe paper, tied with green,
will be dainty finish to the newell
post or table center The green and
white chains of paper which one can
buy at a novelty store, will come in
handy to form canopy in the dining
room for the table.

in harmony with the event. the wom-

and stocks, perky bow or rosette
in the hair, and on the breast an Irish
harp made OF shirred ribbon with

The maids who serve at the door

dainty white aprons and caps, each
crnamented with green ribbon bow.
The men can wear green ties and tiny
Irish flags in buttonholes, or typical
Irish costumes can be hired at the

ST. PATRICK WORTHY OF HONOR
His Career Marked with the True

There are those who dead to senti-

But is the festal day utterly wasted?
Hard labor is the portion of mankind.
from the man at the office desk to the
labOrer in the street. Since the bless
edness of leisure has little part in most
lives, the rare feast day brings with it
an inspiration of enthusiasm to cheer
the jaded spirits. 1t is a time for the
assertion of the man himself. He es-
capes for an instant from the grasp OF
necessity and joys in the privilege Of
doing what he likes.
II, by chance, his mind turns to the
hero whose manhood had the power
to stay the wheels of work-to a
Washington, a Lincoln or a ST. Pat.
rick-a gracious influence from the
tonored dead enters into his soul.
Be his heart as dry as summers dust,
his faith and hope worn to shadow,
the passing thought of reverence for
men whose integrity shines steadfast-
ly through the ages will have an ele-
waiting power, and he will take up his
burden on the morrow encouraged
and refreshed
To-day the sons Of Erin honor the
memory Of st. Patrick His gift to
his people is the blessed one Of peace
on earth, good will toward men. His
heneficence and genial qualities have
the power to awaken joy in the human
heart. No sacrifice of heather nor
blood of the martyrs stains his shield;
his career was marked with the true
spirit of Christian charity.
All hail. st. Patrick. May your
memory never grow less, but blossom
anew as gladly as the evergreen
shamrock responds to the call Of each
returning spring.
