An Irish Patriot
Story For St. Patrick's
Day.
By NORA O'NEILL

There are two characters in Irish his
tory who are the very antipodes OF
each other. The one Is st. Patrick,
whose memory is revered and beloved
by Irishmen; the other Dermot, who is
looked upon with hatred and contempt.
Dermot was one of the early kings
Of those sections into which the Elmer
aid Isle was formerly cut up. The
prayer of the Turks, "Allah, prevent
the uniting of the Balkansp' might
have been spoken by the English of
that faraway period with reference to
the Irish. There was constant warfare
between these Irish sovereigns, and
finally Dermot, when hard pressed by
his enemy, invited the English to come
across the channel and help him.
The English, once having obtained
foothold in Ireland, did not stop till
they had dominated the island. SO,
while blessings are onthis day show
cred upon st. Patrick, who converted
Ireland to Christianity, there Is execra-
ton for Dermot, forthat constant dis
content of the Irishspeople under Brit
ish rule dates from his giving Britons
the first opportunity.
During the reign Of Charles I. OF
England one Of these kings or rulers OF
what have since become counties OF
Ireland was beheaded by order Of the
English king. He was called the
O'Donohue. the o being a prefix 10 the
name Of the ruler to denote his SOW
ereignty. His son, a boy Of seven at
the time Of his fathers death, made
a vow that when he grew to manhood
he would spend his life In attempting
to drive the English from Ireland
It might be expected that a resolu-
ton formed at such an early age would
not be kept. A child Of seven losing
q father is not likely to remember him

To Clean Valuable Glass.

One can never be careful enough In
cleaning valuable objects dart OF all
kinds, says the Pail Mall Gazette.
Many exquisite pieces have been en-
tirely spoiled through cleaning being
accomplished unintelligently. Old glass
counts among the most precious Of
possessions, and for It's cleaning chem
icals must never be used, because they
remove that dull blush gloss which Is
always a characteristic Of antique
specimens and is point highly priced
by connOisseurs. If cleaning really
becomes necessary use powdered egg
shells. These must be ground very
flne with no gritty pieces remaining to
scratch the glass. Mix with tepid wa
ter into thin paste and with this rub
the glass, rinse with clear water after
ward and dry with soft leather. This
is the only really reliable way of clean
ing valuable glass and Is method
carefully followed by collectors.
