An eminent Irishman, famous as
historian and man of letters. arrived
one morning at Dublin in a brown
study. Scarcely had his feet touched
land when he was seized, bag and bag
gage, by an alert car driver, who soon
had the dreaming gentleman ensconced
on side of his car. They drove off at
high speed and made a tour of the
principal streets. They doubled on
their tracks, flashed round corners and
appeared in most unexpected places,
all in the most aimless fashion and at
breakneck speed. At the end of an
hours brilliant car driving the fare
woke UP from his reverie in amaze
ment
I'm the name of heaven, Pat" he ex-
claimed. where are we going?"
"Och." said Pat, "the sorra one Of
