EVICTION
TraIIe Magistrates Investi-
eating Death of Aged
Woman.

The Tralee Magistrates have only
done an act OF common justice in con-
senting to hold a public inquiry into
the causes that led to the death Of
an old woman, who is popularity re-
garded from one end Of Ireland to
the other as the victim of a Kerry
eviction. The incident happened on
the top of a mountain, in a place
called Glounseehun. There lived an
old woman, eighty-one years old, in
wretched little cot to which, in
spite of poverty and hardship, she
chung with all the force of a loving,
unreasoning woman's heart and
strength. The landlord, however,
determined to take possession of her
homestead, and in an unlucky mo-
ment he got an eviction order against
the poor old soul. When the Sheriff
arrived that officer found the poor,
half-demented creature in bed and
obviously very i'll, and he promptly
refused to carry out the victim, hold
ing that It was not humane to shift
this old woman, even with the help
of doctor. Unfortunately, the land
lord insisted on his rights, in spite
of the fact that the danger and risk
to life we're carefully pointed out to
him. and in the end the excited old
soul was hustled out of bed into her
clothes, tied on a car and driven to
a relatives home, where eight days
later she died. II is now alleged that
in order to make her leave the cot
an order was given to fire the roof
after saturating II with benzoline.

USEFUL HINTS.

The person whose complexion is
not clear should eat all the fruit
possible. But, unless 1t is cooked,
It is apt to bring out a rash.
Cold foods are enemies to the
stomach. They reduce the tempera-
ture below the point necessary for
good digestion.
A sponge for washing and bathing
is not sanitary, as it is impossible
to be thoroughly cleansed. An or
binary Turkish wash cloth is much
better.
For insomnia, lie straight and In
hale deeply for fifteen minutes,
placing the hands at the waist line
and sending the breath down, fore
ing the hands apart.
When your ear aches get a little
absorbent cotton; dip In jamaica
ginger and pack tight in your ear.
You will be surprised how soon the
ache will leave you.

CROSS OF CHRIST.

Protestants sometimes ask Why
We give so much reverence to the
cross. IL is because the cross is the
symbol of mans redemption, of Gods
undying love for his creatures, re-
calling to our minds the sufferings
FIe endured to atone for our sins.
And often when weighed down by
sorrow, when all seems to go wrong,
and the burdens of life press heavily
upon us. It Gains and refreshes our
troubled spirits to gaze on the wasted
form and forbearing countenance of
our Lord as He hangs upon the cross.
From the contemplation of his
sorrows we derive new strength to
bear up under our own, and we are
guided EDWARDS in the way of sane
tity, are made better by suffering,
and approach closer to Him who has
suffered so much for our sakes.

IRISH MORAL FORCE.

There are good grounds for admir-
ing the patience and persistence of
the Irish people, as displayed on the
home rule question A great Ameri-
can commander was much applauded
for fighting II out on one line eff
1t took all summer" The Irish have
backed the principle of home rule
through forty summers of hope and
winters of disappointment never
doubling that the clouds would
break" II this is not an evidence of
the real moral force Of the race we
do not know of better test Many
.hings happened to turn them from
their stern chase; but their tenacity
OF purpose never wavered. Even
their enemies must concede them the
distinction implied.
