A Hoy's Essay on Cats.
Tho fallowing is vouched for as a
boy's essay on cats. It is all true,
every word of it, and no doubt voices
the sentiments of tho average small
boy everywhere in relation to the
comparative merits of dogs and cats:
"I'd rather havo a dog than a cat
any day. Dogs can race cats; they
can race other dogs; they can race
boys or anything. Nobody ain't
seared of a cat. A mouse Is, but not
if it ain't soniowheres that It can't
get out of, or a rat either. A dog
can make a cat dead If he bites her
enough. When ho comes hi tho
yard ho cau muj;e her tail look like
u Christmas tree. Ho can nniko
her fix her back up like a camel. I
ain't afraid of thieves, but thieves
aro afraid of dogs. If a thief comes
where a dog can get at him, ho'll
run like tho doost; but tho dog
won't run. A dog can watch a
house better than n policeman. He
won't let the dog that owns It come
In the back yard in the middle of
the night; but a cat would. If a
man or any other thief was to sneak
in, would a cat care? She'd go over
the fence llko lightning. That's
what. A dog knows when you're
homo from school. He ain't sleepy
then. He bus fun with old hats, II
you glvo him one. You've got to
pay for keeping him, but you don't,
a cat, because a nog's some goou
and a cat uln't. I'd rather have a
dog."

AFOOT IN IKEhAND.
Edgar h. Wakenian Describes n Fa
miliar hut Mournful Irish Scone.
It may well bo imagined that
when front 200 to 800 souls leuvw
Ireland for foreign shores every
working day in tho year there aro
heart and haiidwrlnglngs Innumer
able and dolorous mists from tho
region of tears. Few families uro
fortunate enough to get uway all
together. If help has come from
America; If tho passage money has
been saved Iu secret through years
of deprivation by a single person;
If an Irish family have, after every
manner of sacnllce, provided for tho
freedom of one who Is to go to
blessed America that the remainder
may, ono by one, oyontuully bo ic
leused from slavery; however tho
going of all these wretched people
may have come about, In every In
stance there Is a struggle In tearing
away from tho things to which tho
heart Is rooted, which wo of better
fortunes and conditions know noth
ing about.
Bo many of these scenes havo I
now witnessed that I am beginning
to huvo some little conception of tho
real bravery of this net of Illiterate,
untrained men and women pushing
boldly across the seas Into untried,
unknown walks and vays, with u
love, hope hud dolci initiation for
one's iitvn ut the bottom of It all
that havo more real heorlsm iu
them than the average American
Is ever able to comprehend In his
whole life.
However lowley, poor and desper
ately good-foMiutight tho prospec
tive emigrant muy huvo nil his II fo
been reguidcd uiiioug Ills fellows,
the great and generous Irish heart
iu those mound him melts Into stir
plowing Interest and tenderness
when lie comes to have his neigh
borhood and tlio-e whom he has
never been so little u part of
through the bitter days thut havo
encompassed all. For every de
parture reuwiikeim the huart-uchlug
memories of other departures; aud
In every Irish homo I ever shared
there Is tin empty chair whoso
former occupant Is somewhere be
yond tho sea,
Tho Delaware crop Is not as lino
