IRISH HoPEFULNEss.
Sure, Things Are Never so Bad but
They Might BE Worse.

The Irishman sees everything
through rose colored glasses, says a
writer in the Guidon. He is support
ed, too, by a simple, sturdy faith, a
spirit of resignation and unworldli-
ness worthy of the saints of old
The dread blight had fallen on the
fields in most of the district where we
were visiting in Ireland, and the po-
tato vines hung limp and brown. No
word of complaint was spoken. and
when the likelihood of famine was
mentioned the answer came:
Danger, ma'am? Yes, there is, in
deed, but God is good. He'll find a
way"
So, too, about the hay. The sum-
mer had been terribly wet, and for
days the new mown hay had lain on
the ground. 1t was an anxious time.
What will you do" l said to Mike,
'if this weather keeps up? Your hay
will surely be ruined"
"Oh, please God, 1t won't keep us"
he answered. He'll send us a bright
day soon, just to see how well we'll
use It,"
What a glorious night, Mikey!"

Thanks be to God for giving 1t to u.s."
They showed us, on the road to
town, a gentleman's place where, in a
stretch of what not long since had
evidently been thickly wooded land,
stood stump after stump of giant
trees. Four or five years ago, when
the winter was exceptionally long and
cold, the peasants suffered from scar

ed proprietor to sell them wood, Of
fering not only to pay his price, but TO
fell the trees and carry them off. He
refused.
Again and again they begged, for
the suffering grew intense, but he
would not let his land be marred. One
night there came a wind so frightfrl
that 1t seemed for a time as II the
big wind were blowing again. In
the morning the highway along this
proprietor's domain was impossible.
Huge trees, blown to the ground, lay
across the road for a distance of two
miles. and the forest beauty was a
thing of the past. The town authori.
ties ordered the obstruction cleared
away, and the peasants got for moth
ing more than they had been refused
for pay.
Twas the hand OF God was in
that, ma'am," l was told, for, with all

harmed, nor another tree on the coun
tryside, only those. God always looks

DIVERSITY IN SLEEVES.
As IN the Case Of skirts, There Are
All Sorts and Con-
dtons.

There is wide diversity In the treat
ment Of fashionable sleeves; in fact,
IL is a question whether or not they
are more varied than skirts. for the
best models among the latter arc lin-
tied to six or seven styles. Not so
with sleeves, however, which are as
numerous in shape and design almost
as the patterns of lace which adorn
them. The open bell sleeve is a
favorite model for dressy tailored
suits. especially as designed for fore.
noon wear The opening is usually
bound with embroidery lace or braid
and underneath appears the sleeve OF
the blouse or guimpe
One of the very smartest Of the new
sleeves has a long. tight undersleeve,
with a loop extension at the inside.
the outer sleeve being formed Of rows
of lace rufIles. The loop is a feature
of many of the new sleeves on French
frocks and makes a charmingly chic
effect.
The fancy panamas used for dressy
tailor-mades are so designed that they
tempt one TO the unique in sleeve ef
fects. They combine the newest col
orings with the last words in pat
terms. and. in addition. can be wei
handled by the average tailor. They
are sufficiently cool and dust-resisting
to make them n reliable fabric fol
spring and summer. while their cost Is
by no means extravagant. A gown ~

To Remove Flnuer Marks.

The lintels of the doors of a room
and the woodwork around the win
dows when enameled white or in pale
colors frequently become marked with
the impression of finger tips. A
piece of flannel dipped in kerosene
will effectually remove all traces, but
after rubbing the woodwork the sur
face should be washed with a clean
cloth dipped in very hot water, this
being the only method of removing
the smell of the oil.
