' COURTING IN IRELAND.
Layers and Lovminklnjf In the Land
at the Shamrock.
The Irish way of courting In the old
flays and in quiet country place even
to the present day was and Is very dif
ferent from that style of thing which
makes the subject of many finely paint
ed romances. There were no stolen In
terviews, no twlllpht walks, no thought
of kisses or even hnnd clasps In short,
no lovemaklng whatever. But If they

bind her sheaves when lib? owu were
oone and at noonday took bLs. share of
sxida cake and his draft of milk from
her hands. Then in the quiet evening,
when the work was done and the even
ing nieul was over, Petor' would rise
and look out of the door and say to his
father or sisters: " Tls a fine night. I
think I'll go for a bit of a stroll." And
the bit of a stroll inevitably ended on
ihe narrow path through the whin
bushes up to the stile, over . which It
was but three steps Into Alec McCros
san's haggard, and then across to where
the firelight shone welcoming through
an open door.
Around the Are the family circle was

draw at the pipe, and maybe he didn't.
Anyhow be would sit there quiet and
contented for long enough, talking all
the time to McCrossan or the neighbor
men. but with quiet, happy eyes watch

she sat In the flickering light or moved
about the room. And there was a gleam
In her eyes and a smile on her lips
which told him he was welcome and
bade him stsy long and come again
soon, and In h!s heart was a firm re

The cold wave, bo much dreaded by
most people, Is really a blessing In dis
guise. It charges the atmosphere with
fresh oxygen and a surplus of fret
electricity, which produces a most ex
hilarating and beneficial effect upon
mankind. Torpid energies are aroused,
physical vigor and resistance Increased,
by ths advent of a cold wave to such
an extent that any Incidental damagi
Is more than made up for.
Tho American climate has a I way i
been recognized as a strong factor in
causing the aggressiveness and enter
prise which have lifted our people Into
the first rank among nations and mads
as commercially supreme. The cold
wave, with Its results of increased en
ergy and vigor, Is a meteorological phe
nomenon peculiar to this country. Ths
chief of the weather bureau at Wash

It appears that with a high pressors
system, rotating wlUi great velocity,
large volumes of cold air are drawn
down from above the. clouds, so thai
the cold wave Is "homemade," being
simply a product of motion. The sys
tem of motion originates In the north
west, but the cold air comes from
above the clouds.
The cold wave is not only useful fot
