The Irish standard., 1910-07-23

On September 9th and 2Sth three
or four of the Nationalist leaders will
be present at the convention of the
United Irish League in Buffalo after
which they will lecture throughout the
country until the opening of the fall
session Of Parliament. The reception
that is accorded them on this occasion
and during their stay in this country
will determine for them the interest
which the Irish in America are taking
in their fight for Home Rule. If they
are accorded a hearty reception and
receive encouraging support it will
stimulate their efforts when Parlia-
ment opens in November. Let everyone
lend whatever aid he can toward maxi
ing the reception of the Irish leaders
q notable event and their entire visit
a memory that will inspire them to
fight for Ireland with greater enthusi-
asm than ever when they return.

The Table Napkin.

Curiously enough, that article now
considered almost Indispensable, the
table napkin, was first used only by
children and was adopted by elder
members of the family about the mid
die of the fifteenth century. In Ell
quette books of an earlier date than
this among other sage pieces of advice
for children are instructions about
wiping their fingers and lips with their
napkins. 1t seems that the tablecloth
was long enough to reach the floor and
served the grown people in place Of
napkins. When they did begin to use
napkins they placed them first on the
shoulder, then on the left arm and
finally tied them about the neck.-Lon-

A Curious Weddino Prss.n+

Among the Brass river tribes of
West Africa when a young couple get
married it is the custom for the oldest
member Of the brides family to pre-
sent the bride with a plot of ground
six feet long. This is for the grave of
her family and herself when they die.
The first member of the new family
who dies is buried about twenty feet
below ground and the next one almost
sixteen feet, and this goes on until all
the family die and are buried. The
grave holds them all. and this, they
think, prevents them from being sep.
arated. This grewsome wedding pres
ent is the one most valued by the
bride, the favorite native saying being,
when all other things are gone this
remains"

Genuine PoIitenesS,

Frenchmen are prominently the po-

nately, cannot be definitely defined. 1t
may mask Brightness, snobbishness or

CHE comes. the sweet girl graduate
~ With knowledge quite oerfiowins.
Upon the world and all mankind
Her simple charms bestowing.
She comes with plans TO fix up things
That might be our undoing
In words we cannot understand
And simple, plain rag chewing.
Within her head she packs around
A ton or two of knowledge
Concerning figures. plants an1 stars
And things you learn in CO ege
She has the whole thing on display
And outlined full and ample
Where any one who thirsts to know
Can come and take a sample.
She answers questions great and small
When she is on her metal,
For when she opens up her mouth
That does the matter settle.
No use to argue or to try
To tear her case asunder.
Man al her wisdom manifold
Can only pause and wonder.
Why should she not know everything
And be as wise as any?
For sure her education cost
Her father quite a penny.
So let her gable on, because
There's no way to restrict her.
And If a man were so inclined,
Pray, could he contradict her?
