lreiand's Patroness,

The first day of February is the an
niversary of st. Bride. or Brlget, the
"patroness" of ireland and of Fleet
street. She was the beautiful daugh-
ter of an Irish bard, and her story
seems to have fired the Celtic imagi-
nation. Wherever the early Irish mis-
sIonaries wandered in western Europe,
from Cologne to Seville, churches or
abbeys will be found dedicated TO her
honor, and wherever the "exiles of
Erin" may migrate the name of Brid

spire of her church in Fleet street has
been repeatedly struck by lightning
and is now much reduced In height, but

pies in London.-London Chronicle.

"Oh, nothing will happen to tele-

In half an hour Mr.. Bowser was

on his way to a circus.
1t was about two o'clock in the after
noon when the telephone rang me up

"Do you mean that an accident has

he was longing for trip out into the
country. In his conversations he spoke

toned the rabbit; he spoke of the fall
apple, and so I knew that he would
take a day off soon and refresh his
boyhood memories.
Mr.. Bowser came down to break

Such tales as these are told of by
the Irish themselves with no hint of
disrespect. They are merely the evil
dences of the all-pervading humor of
this light-hearted people and should
be taken in the same spirit by others.
In spite of them the Irish worship the
memory of st. Patrick above all other
saints.
1t should not be imagined, however.
that the traditions concerning the pa
tron saint of Ireland are all humorous.
Some of them embody that sense of the
beautiful which is also an Irish char
acteristic. One of the most attractive
of these tales Is that of st. Patrick
and the kings daughters.
In the year 433 he celebrated Easter
by converting many thousands of the
Inhabitants. After the termination of
the services he went to Tara to try to
