shiIlalah Still Useful.

The shillalah, watch showed at
Louth that it has net entirely lost its
old importance as factor in deciding
elections, Is no raw limb of tree.
1t is almost as much work of art as
q well balanced cricket bat. The old

after by their loving owners as is
rifle in the wilds. Cut from the stur-
diest OF young blackthorns, and show
Ing as little taper as an ebony ruler,

the end nearest the grip, SO that its
center Of gravity was about four
fifths of the way from the hitting end.

kept in the neighborhood of the farm
oven for few months, it became
thing Of supple steel. And the proper
pronunciation Of the name of this
fearsome weapon is the melodious one
Of "shil-ally," with the accent on the

old jokes. the jokes of Scarron and the
restoration dramatists, and even the
humor OF Fielding and OF Goldsmith, no
longer provoked laughter; but in this is-
land, washed at It is. think Lord Bea-
consfield said. by q melancholy ocean,
laughter is physical necessity. And after
ALL am not right in saying that q laugh,
real laugh, at any literary product, ex-
cept CT course comedy on the stage
any laugh ever book that you are read
ing is almost the rarest luxury which you
can eEicy.
