Played 1t to the Limit.

Many writers have declared that an Irish gentleman's hospitality is unlim- ited, but this is n slight eXaggeration, as is shown by story borrowed from a book of Irish memories.
 Jerry McCartie was often the guest of friends who on ac4Aunt of his pleas ant ways extended to him that sort of old Irish hospitality which enabled a visitor in my own family who came for fortnight to stay for six years.
 Tn McCartie's case the visit stretched to nearly double that time. After eight or mine years, however, his kins- man got little tired of his guest and let him know of his old mansions pro- posed renovation and that he had sign ed contract for having it painted from garret to cellar.
 By George" said Jerry, its for tunate that don't object to the smell of paint, and it will be well to have some one to keep an eye on the paint CTS now that the wall fruit is ripen- ing"
 Some months passed. Then his host informed him that he was going to be married, adding, Il thCFsht I'd tell you in good time, so that you could make leisurcly preparations to go, as the lady and you may not hit it off as well as you and dO."
 With fearful eyes Jerry grasped his cousins hand, saying:
 "Oh, Dan, dear, you have my hearty thanks for your consideration; but, dear, dear boy, surely if you can put up with her can."
