at The Courier office a curiosity that
for novelty and delicacy cannot be ex-
celled. It is n of natures pin cush-

stone into which has been driven q
number of fine pins, scme of them
being bent a little in the driving. In
reality it is a stone on which a num-
Der of lichens or fungi have fastened
themselves. 1t is a beautiful little
thing, as chaste and handsome q
curiosity as one would find any,

DUBLIN, September 25.-The tech
nical committee of County Mayo has
reduced from 1870 to f400 the money
provided for the teaching of the Irish
language and forecasts a further re-

Monsignor Dalton, who introduced
the motion, said that he knows
mothers who threaten to withdraw
their children from school if the
teaching of Irish is not dropped. He
declared that the spoken language is
losing ground even in districts where
1t was generally spoken until com
paratively recently.
The government recognizes this, but
thinks it regrettable and is taking
steps in all directions to remedy it.
Irish is now made a compulsory sub
Ject in the primary schools all over
the country and the government has
appointed n commission, which Is TAX

language in the Irish-speaking dis
