IRISH CITYS LONG HISTORY
Limerick Has for Many Centuries Been
a Place Of High Importance
and Interest.

Limerick, Ireland, which occupies
both sides of the river as well as
Kings island, is about 1870 miles from
Dublin. It's bacon-ctiring industry, Its
creameries, its. condensed milk facto-
rles, and It's salmon fisheries keep busy
It's Rory QMores and its pretty little
irish colleens, the glanees of Whose
beautiful eyes are like to prove as ia
raj as those OF Kate Kearney. Linz
'eriek fish hooks are celebrated. and
though the Limerick lace worked up
on a fine quality of net, derived its
name from the city, 1t Is mostly made
In other portions of the iyland at>the
present time.
Limerick has had, a past, says a
bulletin OF the National Geographic
society. 1t was the ancient Regla Of
Ptolemy; the Danes desired it for n
long while before they finally occu.
pied 1t In the Ninth century and in
1910 King John visited 1t and built
forts upon its coveted soil. The de-
tnroned James II of England made it
his last stronghold. On the island In
the river the ancient Limerick had Its
beginnings, and today its maze OF
crooked streets, and its old cathedral,
dating from ITO, are important points
Of Interest.

Put Out Your Tongue.

The latest science, called glosso-
NANCY purports to read the persons
character by the size and shape of
the tongue. According to glossoman-
cists, those who possess short and
broad tongues are apt to be untruth-
full, while people whose tongues are
short and narrow are sly and bad
tempered. When the tongue is long
and broad It is u sign that its owner
Is inclined to be gossip. A tongue
that is long and narrow denotes a
frank, open disposition. Girls with
small, round, plump tongues possess
trustful and affectionate dispositions;
but men with similar shaped tongues
are apt to be Inconsistent. what
glossomancists term the rectangular
type OF tongue--one that Is almost
square in shape---is indicative of
strong, virile nature. Men with these
shaped tongues are ambitious, active.
and likely to get on In the world.
Squnre.tongued women, however, are
likely to be self.assertlye.

CONSTANT FIGHT ON CRABS
Destructiveness OF the Crustaceans
in the West Indies Is Something
Almost Beyond Belief.

The fisherman of Japan has a su-
preme contempt for the gigantic crab
0s his coast, which has nlppers ten
feet in length and when moving along
the bottom OF the sea with its claws
spread out covers an area of ~ feet
or so.
The destructlveness OF certain spe-
eles Of crab in the West Indn.s is
remarkable, observes an exchange.
They are great burrowers and In To-
callties where they are plentiful sand
they multiply with the pniditt of the
rodent othlng Is safe from them.
They viii cat the eggs on which
hen Is sitting, and just rs readily the
leaves Of Seeding coconut trees. They
effect In the West Indies practically
the same degree OF destruction on the
young coconuts as the sepoy crab does
In the East Indies. In each instance
some 3 10 IL per cent of the seedlings
have to be replaced II they are plant
ed in the newly cleared ground from
which the crabs have not been thor
oughly cleared OFT

Mark Twain's Cousin
to Lecture Here

All of the talent in the Clemens
family .eems not to have been
centered in Mark Twain, the IA
nous author and humOrist, for his
cousin, Mildred Leo Clemens, the
Well-known lecturer, is rapidly
gaining an enviable reputation
with her lecture entertainment,
Happy Hawaii
To the freedom of childhood
days spent on a western farm,
Miss Clemens attributes her de-
light in nature. Training in the
keen observation Of human nature
and life in it's varying phases was
early acquired through newspaper
and journalistic work, work, too,
that even before high school days
were over had led her into the
scenic places of the Great North
west.
Through extensive travels Miss
Clemens has become intimately ac-
quainted with the American West,
its scenic wonderlands, the Cana
dian Rockies, the Hawaiian Is
lands, Australia, New Zealand, and
other parts of the western world
Armed with her faithful camera
and notebook, the young lecturer,
writer and traveller has penetrated
to regions where it takes real cour-
age to go, seeing things that most
travellers have not, and her lee
lures never fail to present both by
picture and story her vivid impress
SiOns of the scenic places or
vitality interesting scenes of life,
customs and activities in the lands
where she has travelled.
OF her lectures it has been said
that they compress into an hour
and a quarter a story which art
lists have endeavored to tell with
brush, and writer's with pen, but
most of these efforts do not meas
ure up to the effectiveness of the
motion pictures and colored photo
graphs and the story as told by
Miss Clemens. She carries her
audience with her and makes them
feel as though they are in the
midst of the scenes she pictures
and describes, bringing price
less recollection to those who have
travelled, while to those who have
not she stimulates fresh ideas and
broadens the mental horizon. T.
To her pictures and story, Miss
Clemens adds a charming person
ality, a clear, penetrating voice,
the attractiveness of youth, the
culture of a college woman, a
wealth of Clemens humor, a fresh
and original style, and a sympa-
thetic understanding of her audi
ence. All of which combine to
make what critics have been
pleased to term a rather unusual
equipment for the lecture platform
and travelogues which do not in
any way correspond to the stereo-
typed travel talks.
