| ST. PATRICK'S RETURN
Every True Irishman Believes the
Good Saint Wili Go Back to the
Emerald lsle,
NYONE on the west coast of Ire-
and will: tell you that some day
St Patrick is coming back to Ireland,
the land he loved. No one says when
that day will be, although there is rea
son to believe that it will be on the
day of the nnal judgment of the world.
Whether or not his return is desir.
able depends altogether upon the
point of view of the teller of the
prophecy If he be a gloomy pes-
simist he is likely to remark that St.
Patrick can't come soon enough, God
knows. If he be a cheerful optimist
{ he will add, “and may that day be far
| although ‘twill be a good day when
ever it comes.”
irelana has a personal regard for
St Patrick probably equaled by no
| other country in the world in {ts rela-
| tion to a patron saint; and so it is
that the prophesied return of the mis-
{ stonary to the isle has had a his-
! toric bearing upon certain of its char
acteristics and events, so that even
the passing of the home rule bill has
| met in certain remote districts ot Ire-
land with the turn of phrase, “If St
Patrick came back now, ‘tis the
| pleased man he'd be”
And, indeed, it St. Patrick were to

Superstition Lingers,
In some parts of Ireland there is a
superstition that the “poochaun’
(fairy) blows a poisonous breath on
the sloe on halloween, and to eat the
perry after November 1 would result
in serious iliness, if not death. For
this reason the youth ol the country,
although fond of the sloe, will shun 1t
