IRISH GIRL LACEMAKERS.
Novel Demonstration Given Daily a.
S. Kann, Sons & Co.'s Store.

S. Kann, Sons & Co have extended an
invitation to customers, residents and
visitors here for the inaugural to inspect
the Irish lace now being made at the store
by three young Irish pupils from the
Loughlynn Convent School of Industry
in County Roscommon. Ireland These
young women. under the care of Father
O'Flanagan. are visiting this country to
interest the American people in the
beautiful handmade laces Of Ireland
Miss O'Flanagan. sister of the Rev.
Father O'F7anagan. is making and ex-
planning Irish crochet lace; Miss Rose
Eagan. bObbin lace. and Miss Mary X.
Donovan, Carrickmacross lace. They will
remain at kanns until March e. with
daily demonstrations from 9 to > o. clock
The young women are robed in the clas-
sic costume of ancient Ireland and in
answer to many visitors, who wondered
why the white draperies should he con-
trasted with other colors than green, ii
was explained that lavender was the IA
vorite color of pagan Ireland. 1t was
succeeded by the blue of Catholic Ireland
until the nineteenth century. when in
a probable attempt to merge that color
with the aptagonistic orange. it became
the present green.
irish laceS are so esteemed by women
learned in lace lore that the demonstra-
ton now going on will give those who
have not Il aveled through Ireland an OPP
portun1ty to see what care and time ii
takes to complete even a tiny blossom or
a cobweby mesh.

Swapping Turtle Farming.

From the Wide World Magazine
Swapping turtle farming is much more
exciting than raising the American ter
rapin. The former is a vicious creature
and will snap at anything-hence its name.
Indeed, in disposition il is the very OPP
poSite of its American brother 1t be
lieves most thoroughly in the survival of
the fittest and to it the fittest is number
one. IT Is chronic fighter. and mas
much as its jaws are very strong and,
like a bulldog. il never knows when to let
go, 1t is a reptile to be either mastered
or avoided. Indeed, the men at Mr. Hat
teri'S farm outside Toxic can tell many
exciting little stories concerning the vo-
racity Of this strange creature. One farm
hand. for instance. Is minus a finger, the
result of not using sufficient care when
transferring one of the larger reptiles to
a new pond
Many naturaliSts have visited this
unique farm and, after a close study of
the turtle and its habits have confirmed
all the bad qualities that have been re-
corded concerning it. In securing its food
1t shows that II possesses no mean intel
hgence. Al one time it crawls slowly and
silently along with neck OutStret ched to-
ward an unsuspecting fish. springs upon
it by a powerful thrust of its hind legs
and snaps ii up: at another time il drives
the fish around the basin and terrifes il
until it falls an unresisting victim. Again.
the reptile may be observed buried in the
sandy soil of its prison with only lis bill
and eyes protruding. On the approach
of a fish the head and long neck dart
forth from the sand with lightning speed
and the prey is caught and instantly
killed by savage bite.

suggested that among this number can
be found many to undertake the active

AS TO the money, = must not be for

highway robbories have always been well
coined as supplies for the anarchist war
chests. This doctrine has been frequently
declared. and notorious disciple Of this
school was the anarchist burglar Pena.
who successfully committed a long series
of burglaries in Paris in the early Dos be-
tore being arrested and sentenced to a
long term of imprisonment.
1t was known TO the whole anarchist
BODY In Paris that Pena committed these
burglaries. but the fact that he con-
trlbuted freely from the proceeds of his
crimes to the funds of the movement
caused his secret to be kept. and instead
OF being looked upon as criminal out

1t Will also be remembered that one OF the
most cherished ideas of the WalSall an
archists was the use of chlnrofnrm in the
robbing of capitalists: indeed, a bottle of
chloroform for this purpose was actually
found in possession of one of the priS-

Preventing Disease.
From the Omaha Bee.

One of the most significant and cheering
features of the annual reports of the
different large cities of the country for
the last year is the showing by the health
boards of generally decreased death
rate.
Many agencies have contributed to this
result. and there is every evidence Of a
growing popular interest in work for
health conservation.
Much of this improvement is due to the
growing conviction among physicians and
public officials generally that diseases are
not individual, but in many cases social.
Lack of nutrition. wretched housing con-
ditions, filthy streets and insanitary con-
ditions generally are found back of tuber-
culosis, typhoid and most of the children s
diseases. Poverty. ignorance and evil
environment are the most prolific sources
OF sickness, and their removal becomes
as much public duty as IT is the duty
OF the physicians to treat the physical ills
Of his patients.
