O'CRADY Copyright by American Press Asso ciation, 1311. I'at Douian and Maggie McSnane were a young couple living In KU larncy town. Ireluu.1, and at the time this 8tory begins (fore not out of their toons. I'ut was a fine strapping young follow and good looking, though be was so poor that his clothes were rag gedIt's not every man whose manly beauty will show to advantage when bis bare knees are peeping through bis trousers and a tuft of bis curly hair protrudes through a hole In his bat. But when Pat smiled that good natured smile of his clothes were for gotten and he was taken right into the hearts of those he smiled upon. As for Muggle, she was a housemaid In a family whose place bordered on one of the lakes, and she was always well dressed. She bad a real Irish complexion, as white as milk and as red as a rose. There was so much mingling between the white and the red that if was Impossible to tell where the one began and the other ended. Pat and Maggie did a lot of walking about together on the banks of the lakes, and they were always noted for the difference in their appearance, Pat's being in such marked contrast to Maggie's. But if Maggie's clothes were spick and span and Pat's falling to pieces, Maggie's face wore a serious cast, while Pat's was always alight. His rags could not overcome the cheer fulness of his disposition nor chill his generous heart, for whenever he would meet any one worse dressed than him self he would sing out: "Arrah, hedad, man, go sell your toga to a farmer to put up for a scarce crow." Then Pat would thrust bis hand In bis pocket, and if by any possibility be should find a ha'penny there be would hand it out, saying, with a twinkle in his eye: "Go buy a new suit of clothes." The trouble with Pat was not that he was lazy, but that he was the kind of young man who needed opportu nity. And what opportunity was there for him in a region where the land had all been taken up long ago by the gentry? Was not the road leading around the lakes so hemmed in by the estates of the aristocracy that the beauty of the scenery was shut off completely? What was a young man to do who hnd neither land nor money and whose only work If he could get it would be dressing himself in livery and waiting on a master? "Maggie," said Tat one day when he and his sweetheart were sitting on the bank of the lake near Maggie's mis tress' estate, "Ol'm goin' to Ameriky." "Oh. Pat!" exclaimed Maggie, her heart falling like the mercury in a ba onieter before a storm. "Yes, Oi'm goin' to Ameriky, where '.hey say gold dollars as big as cart wheels are rollln" around In the streets and all a fellow has to ,do Is to pick 'em up. Whin Ol've collected a lot of 'em Ol'll send for ye." "But. Pat, how're ye goin' to get to Ameriky?" "Worruk me passage." "In the cabiTi?" "In the cabin! What would 01 look loike in the cabin in these togs? Ol'll go as a coal heaver. D'ye suppose Ol'd I be duncln' nround offerin' tay to the leddies and glntlemen whin I can get a much more respectable Job below? And do ye suppose Ol'll be lettln' the muscles of me arrni grow soft whin 01 can keep 'em hard?" "But how're ye goin' to git to the ship?" i "Walk. What were me legs given 1 me for? Shurely not for danoln', be cause Ol've no litigant clothes, no grasshopper coat, for balls and par ties. Ol'll walk to Queenstown and go In the first ship that'll take me." i Maggie had none of that happy-go-' lucky disposition which was at the ; bottom of all her lover's actions. But Tat's disposition was not only happy-go-lucky; he was a natural gambler. His proposed move to America seemed to Maggie a Jump in the dark. Tat was looking at the chances. There were surely none for him In Ireland, and there might be some for bim In America. Ergo. America was the place for him. As to his getting there, why, nny one can go anywhere. Ail be has to do is to go. On the morning before Tat's depar ture he stood with Maggie on the banks of the lake where they had stood so often before and would probably never stand together ngnln. They were look ing out on the beautiful scenery, though it Is questionable if they saw It. The mingled boughs of beeches, elms and oaks were putting on theil summer apparel. Ivy vines springing from a tangle of holly and arbutus clung to the taller trunks. Beyond all this was the placid bosom of the lake, contrasting with the emotions in the hearts of the parting lovers. "Pon't be cry in' loike that. Maggie, dear." said Pat. "This is a beautiful ih-ene and one we both love, to be j sure, but whin ye see me ng'lti ye'll be i lookln on a man dressed loiko a gin ' tlemnn. They say a man can do any- thing he lolkes In that free land, and ! mcbhe Ol'll be wenrln" the wig and gown of a Judge or the utitform of a tlneral. How would yt loike to see me marwhalln' a regiment o' ioJenT MeMie Ol'll lie governor or president or suinep'n l' ke that." "Oh. I'at, ye have slcb wild dreams!" Then Pat kissed her, took up bis pack, slung It on to the other end of a stuff and was about to set forth on bis Journey when Maggie banded bim an envelope. "It's for me cousin Bridget, who wlnt to Ameriky last year. She's work In' In one o' the hotels la Ameriky." "Which wan?" "Ol don't know. If ye don't folnd her the week afther land In' open It and read what the wrttin' says." Ol'll folnd her, sure," said Pat, and with a last embrace he started off with head erect at a strapping pace down the road. Maggie waited till he bad gone to a point where she could see him through an opening in the trees on the crest of a bill. lie turned and threw her a kiss. Firing up didn't trouble Pat a bit; it was when he reached the great city of New York, where "dollars as big as cart wheels were rolling about in the streets," that the real fight began. He dldu't happen to meet Maggie's cousin Bridget, and, concluding that America was, after all, too big a country to warrant a search for her, he put the letter away. Indeed, he bad no time for anything but making his living, ne soon got a Job, though a small one, and hadn't been in New York a month before be cast off bis threadbare suit forever, donulng a new one in its stead. Pat spent a couple of years with a plumber learning the trade. The ap prentice was smart and not only bo- came a plumber, but a boss plumber, and four years after having landed set up for himself. Pat had a great advantage in his cheery disposition, ne became very popular with his associates, and, since popularity Is an essential feature of leadership, he became a leader in a small way. A politician, perceiving bis influence, took him up and made him one of his lieutenants. Pat developed fine political instincts. He had the art of turning down all grumblers among his adherents with that imperturbable smile of his. This is a power In poli tics. If he was obliged to give four plums to eight heelers, all of whom bad worked equally well "for the tick et," he would give four of them a plum each, while every one of the other four men received a smile, an encomium and a promise for "next time.' Pat did not forget Maggie. Several times he made ready to send for her, but every time something happened to prevent Then he began to make mon ey, and it occurred to him that it would be a fine thing to go over, marry Maggie In Ireland and bring her borne, Just as the quality do. He wrote to her to that effect, but she wrote back that such a plan would be too great a waste of funds. So in the end Pat sent her a draft for plenty to buy her a first class ticket, but Maggie, who was of a frugal turn of mind and could not realize Pat's change of condition, would not come over in any berth above second class. Now, it happened that when Maggie reached New York Pat was engaged In matters that required all bis atten tion, ne sent one of bis workmen to meet her, but it happened that the man was a very stupid person. And as for Maggie, she had never looked upon a town bigger than Klllarney, never seen a body of water bigger than the lake on which she had lived and, having always been a housemaid. had no head for taking care of her self. She missed the man who had been sent to meet her. Fortunately her affairs for passing the immigrant authorities were in first class condi tion, and she had no trouble with them. But when she was landed at the dock In a strange city, with no one to tell her where to go, her heart sank within der. Some one looked In a directory for her and found the address ot Pat's shop. Then he put Maggie and her belongings on to a trolley car, told her to ask for a transfer, take another line and so mystified her that she didn't know what to do. Riding up the street, she saw floating in the breeze the green banner of Ireland, harp and nil. It was a welcome sight. When the car reached a broad thoroughfare It was stopped by a crowd. Maggie got out and was told a procession was about to pass. Some one Invited her to get up on a stoop, where she could see, and she accepted. Presently she heard muBlo coming, and a man on horseback approached. He wore a "grasshopper coat" and a silk hat, and n green sash covered with rosettes bung from hU left shoulder. "Arrah, mushla," exclaimed Maggie, "It's my rat!" There was Pat sure euough caracol ing as marshal of a dozen or more Irish societies celebrating St Patrick's day. Tat," cried Maggie, "lt' good luck I've seen you." Pat could uot have heard her, but at that moment he happened to turn his eyes toward her and saw her gesticu lating at him. He rubbed his eyes and, being satisfied that she was really his Maggie, waved his baton for a halt, threw himself from his horse and el bowed Ms way through the crowd to ward her. Then when the grand mar shal took the Irish immigrant In his arms and smothered her with kisses a shout arose from a thousand throats. After the wedding, which occurred Ihe same evening. Put remembered the letter he hnd brought for her cousin Bridget. Ho whs about to hand it to her when he checked himself. "What's in it anyway?" he said . Tearing it open, he took out a Ore pound note. Maggie hud supplied him with her savings, hoping when he reached the foreign shore and did not find Bridget he would uso it. This time when Pat took Maggie to his arms a tear stood In his eye. DR. F C. BR0S1US Physician and Surgeon Ksaidmea, Oskud Psrt. Ofllc Osk and Samri Offic hours, 10toUa.iBwttalaod.Ttols.ss.
