r1N THE neighborhood of Ard
| croney. in County Tipperary,
- not far from where the River
ESM Shannon forms the great Tough
Derg, there is a lonesome flat
stretch Of land. with q high gravel Hill
ION the northeast, called Aloneen-a-da-
laussga, meaning "the little bog Of the
two fishermen" But for many years
the full name has been very seldom
used and the place is known and
called by the name Moneen only. AL
though now perfectly dry there is
ample evidence to prove that stream
of water Of considerable size once
wound its way along the foot Of the
high gravel hill
Every place that savors of mystery
in Ireland has a legend or story att
tached to It, and 1t goes without say
Ing that Moneen has its own. If you
go among the peasants in the neigh
borhood you will heF the story, told
as only an Irish peasant can tell, Of
the things that happened long ago:
In the early days Of Erin large
river is supposed to have run through
the valley adjacent to Moneen, and
when 1t came to the wild stretch Of
land at the foot Of the hill it formed
a large pool of water, which was the
favorite haunt Of all who loved fish
ing, as 1t was well stocked with all
kinds Of fish that were good to eat.
The story goes that one day two men
were trying their luck at the sport,
but were meeting with little success.
After many hours Of fruitless striving,
they were about ready to give up,
when, on looking up, they beheld, to
their surprise, several strangers stand
ing beside them. One of them, who
seemed to be the leader of the rest
and on whose eountenance was re-
fiected a strange light, asked the men
| what success they were having. Upon
hearing Of their failure to land even
one fish, the stranger, who was none
/ other than st. Patrick, offered to pray
| for them, telling them that the rehson
for his request was that he and his
companions had been fasting all day
and were weak and faint. To this the
4
men readily agreed and the hooks
were rebaited and cast into the water.
In few minutes a large and shiny
fish was lying on the bank. ST. Pat
rick stretched forth his hand to get
the fish, whereupon the fisherman
pleaded hard that the very next fish
brought in would be his. The saint
seemed distressed at the breaking Of
! the promise given, and reluctantly CON
sented to wait for the next fish. Again,
at the casting of the line fish, even
larger and more beautiful than the
first was landed. But the fishermen
again hyoke their word, and the saint
/ was s6reiy grieved, but finally prom
ised to wait for the next fish, which
the men declared should be his under
any circumstances.
At the third casting out of the line,
a fish as large as the other two COM
binad, and twice as beautiful, was

charm Of the pervading mys-
terry than this little plant OF an
Client memory. It is made of mystery
Even the question Of which out of four
or five little humble rival plants pos
sesses by right and truly the name
shamrock Is a puzzle since centuries.
Then the shamrock Is bound up
closely with the life of st. Patrick, a
man Of holy mystery. And its own
traditions of virtues and powers as a
magic plant lead to more mystery,
which Is again deepened and widened
By the questions over the use of the
shamrock design La art.
The plant at present extensively ac-
cepted as the shamrock for wear and
all actual purposes is kind of clover.
This species Is by no means peculiar TO
Ireland, but It is common there and
friendly to the eye, so 1t serves well as
national flower emblem.
The plant at the present day in most
repute as the true shamrock, one of
the hopciovers, is slender trailing
plant with small yellow heads. 1t is IN
nse In many counties In Ireland and
forms a great part of the shamrocks
sold Ia London on St Patrick's day.
The white clover is generally under
stood to be the common shamrock, and
10 most frequently mentioned as the
national emblem of Ireland. But it is
also variousIy supposed to be the red
clover, wood sorrel locally called
shamrock In EngIand) and the water
cress The latter, however, Is not til
fciiate and would have no traditional
significance. Moore In one Of his melo-
dies couples the shamrock of Ireland
With the olive of Spain. but such an as
ISOLATION Is possible only in song.
The clover in general Is regarded
among emblematists as the emblem of
promise. But patriotism, even more
than love or friendship, is the symbol
ism which the shamrock portrays to-
] day for the Irish people. 1t has re-
ceived many tokens of regard for its
good qualities from Hibernian poets.
The following anonymous verses well
express the sentiment with which 1t Is
regarded By the sons and daughters Of
Erin the world over:
Brave sons Of Hibernia, your shamrocks
display.
eor eyer made sacred on St Patrick's
Day;
Tzs q type OF religion, the badge OF

HGay 1t flourish forever, we Heaven in
woke,
Kindly sheltered and fenced by the

The Drufds are thought to have held
the clover In great reptile, dreaming it

little child on tiptoe holding one Of
