Tfco author of "Irish Life and Char
acter" says truly that one has only
to mix with an Irish crowd to bear
many a laughable expression, quite In
nocently uttered. As the Duke and
Duchess of Tork were leaving Dublin
la 1897. amid enthusiastic cheering, an
old woman remarked:
"Ah! Isn't It the line reception

Its tercentenary, and crowds of vis
itors were attracted to the city. Two
laborers, rejoiced at the general pros
perity, expressed their feelings.
Well. Tim," said one. "thlm tar
clntlnariea does a dale for tbe thrade
of Dbblln. and no mistake.''
"Oh. fair they dor said the other.
"And whin, with the blesaln of God,
we get home rule, sure we can bare as
manny of thlai as we plasc."
An Old woman, seeing a man polling
a young calf roughly along the road,
exclaimed:
- "Oh, you bU'guard! That's no way
to to rate a fellow crather."
"Bure." said a laborer to a young
lady who was urging him to send his
children to school. l'd do anything for
such a sweet, glntlemanly lady as
yourself."
Again, the laborers on a large estate
decided that It would be more con
venient for them If tbey could be paid
very week Instead of every fortnight.
One of their number was sent to place
their proposition before the land agent,
and this waa his statement:
"If you ploase. sir, It's me desire,
and It Is also I very other man's desire,
that we rraave out fortnight's pay
Ivery week."
An exasperated sergeant, drilling a
squad of recruits, called to them at

Sneaking Into a small shop In an ob

man who "went broke" at the races

of jewelry. A woman so poor and
pinched In feature, so marked with
care and desperation that It made him
feel sick to look at her. was holding
something under her shawl and wait
ing nervously until he should have fin
ished his transaction.
"Walt on her. She seems to be In a
hurry," lie said to the man liehlnd the
counter, and at the word of permission
a carpenter's plane was produced from
tbe shelter of the shawl.
"IIow much do you want?" queried
the unmoved pawnbroker monotonous-
iy.
"Fifty cents." replied tbe woman,
vlth a gulping In her throat and an
eager look In her eyes. She clutched
tbe money tightly and ran Into another

had just left the shop. He was not
given to acts of charity, and he felt
awkward, the more so an' the woman
shrank from hint as be accosted her.
"I beg your pasdon," he began, "but
here's $3 I bare no ran- for. Perhaps
you"
"No. no!" she crlod. drawing further
from him.
"For your child." he said gently.

They have some very curious crimi
nal laws In Mexico. For instance, it N
twice as much of an offense to muti
late tbe face of a woman us that of a
man. The law seems to be bawd on
the Idea that a woman's ltest posses
sion Is her beauty and that to mar It
does her a great Injury.
There la another curious law. If a
person should be woundad In an en
counter, tbe punishment to the offend
er Is fixed by tbe number of days his
victim has to stay In the hospital or
under a doctor's care. A line Is fixed
at 40 days In the way of a general divi
sion. If the injured man occupies more
than 40 days In his recovery, the pen
