OF TARA. v w 0V many thousands of oltlzons I il ;- In this country will road with utmost Interest of tho contem plated sale of the faiunuw Hill of Tnra. Juiit what the details of tug sale nro havo not been mude public as yet, but tho fact that huoIi a mov meut is propocod Is of Itself attention-attracting. Tho Hill or Tara In closely Identi fied with IrUh hlhtory. There la a widespread movement In this coun try, having for Its object a general rovlval of Interest In tho study of Irish history nnd surely no study could be more Important and Inter esting. No history is more fraught with Mlrrlng ovonts. with groat adven tures, nnd with occurrences that had much to do with shaping tho his tories of othor countries. To studonts of Irish history the famous Hill of Tara Is very familiar. Even thoso who havo not devoted tlmo to making a study of tho his- tory of tho Emerald Isle, Tara Is well known hecauso of tho song which Thomas Mooro wrote of it and which is world wldo In its fame. Every happening which Involves any noted lnndmark in Irclnnd Is ol concern to many American citizens who have tender memories of the Is land across tho sea or who have hoard of Its romance nnd Its history nnd its wonderful careor from those who knew much of it nt first hand Irish music. Irish literature, and Irish history are all replete with such charms ns to win and bold undivid ed attention and consequently any part of the Emerald Isle which has been an inspiration for song nnd story merits and has tho regard of all who love tho beautiful and the romnntlc.

Golden runs the valley between the towers of corn, White runs tho river across the sil ver morn; And rippling laughter hedges the pathways where I roam Out oh, my heart goos hungry for tho lovo-wnys of homo. Tho luring earth dimpled upon the dewy sod, Tho tall treos wnvo in worship bc- foro tho face of God, Down nil tho country hillsides God's glory Is unfurled, But oh, for tho heart-ache that cries across tho world. Tho purple blossoms shine through tho kisses of tho sun As on their mother-bosoms the Hhndow-chlldren run; My foot faro on in glory, but all of my desire Drifts bnck In aching rapture be- slilo my homing lire. I gather to my heart all the glory, I Ion von sends But oh, I grow nwonry for the faces of my frlonds; The l titer ones, the doar onos, tholr arms nro open wldo And my heart flloa homeward to them from the sunned hillside. Tho sun fndos, tho hill fades, the river runs no more, I only see tho faces besides my horn-Ing-door, And this lono heart of mo will for got that It knew pain Whon I run with engor footsteps to claim them ouco again.

The woman who thinks the men uood watching Is due far n lot of disappointment if sho carries out her Idoa. Whenever two rich youui people get married there are people who remark, "Well, money always ninr rles money."
