Turn to the Right Naturally.

The Philadelphia Record recently
quoted an observant street car conduc-
tor to the effect that the right hand
seats are always filled first. He could
not account for this except on the
theory that as most persons are right
handed and accustomed to turning to
the right. 1t might be simply force OF
habit. There is another probable
reason which he did not think Of"
says the Record. 1T Is generally be-
lieved that the right side of a car 10

to his hearers, whose simple minds
could not conceive of the existence OF
three in one, was timely and satisfac-

to the date and place of Patrick's
birth. The most reliable historians,
however, concur in the belief that he
was born about the year 396 in the
British-Roman province of Valentia, at
a place near the Clyde, not far from
the modern Dumbarton, called from
him Fitzpatrick.
About the year 1872 he began his
