The Church First,

That the influence of the church in
Ireland is considerable is newly at
tested by a story with a humorous
turn, recently printed in st. James,
Budget. Some years ago the little
Irish watering-place, Lisdoonvarna,
boasted of but one hotel, or rather
inn, of very modest dimensions, and
the accommodation which this could
afford was often severely overtaxed
during the summer months.
When all beds had been disposed of,
"shake-downs" were made up on the
tables, and table was often made
to serve as double-decker, one guest
sleeping upon it and another under
meath.
After one unusually large influx of
visitors, an English tourist, who de-
sired to catch the morning coach, and
had therefore ordered an early break:
fast for himself, was Tuning and
stamping impatiently in the hall
Whats keeping breakfast" he
broke out, angrily. 81 ordered 1t over
night"
"Ye can't have breakfast yet" was
the unperturbed reply of the general
factotum. His reverence Is not of
