Irish Twins Dance a Jig.
The old woman and the Twins
made their way to the platform and
sat down on a bench near the edge
of it. Many other people were sit
ting or standing about. An old
man stood up on the platform. He
told the story of Cuchulain the
Hound of Culain and how he
fought all the greatest warriors of
the world on the day he first took
arms.
When he had finished, another
man took his place and told the
story of Deirdre and Maisi, and
another told the fate of the four
children of Lir that were turned
into four beautiful swans by their
cruel stepmother.
And when the stones were fin
ished a nrize was given for the
best one. and the Twins were glad
that it was for the story of Deirdre.
for that tale was Jike an old friend
to them.
After that there was music, and
the dances of old Ireland the reel
and the lilt. And when last of all
came the Irish jig, the old woman
put her basket down on the ground.

springtime in my bones." she said
to the Twins, "Bedad, I'd the foot
of the world on me when I was a
girl and I can still shake one with
the best of them, if I do say it
myself."
She put her hands on her hips
and began to dance! The music got
into everybody else's bones, too,
and . soon everybody around the
platform, and on it, too the old

dancing gayly to the sound of it.

WHY?-
Do White Streaks Appear in
Plaster.
(Copyright, 1920. By the .Wheeler
Syndicate, Inc.)
The white, streaked appearance
of plaster is due to the fact that
the joists or beams are compara
tively close to the surface in these
spots and that while the air has
filtered through the wall, deposit
ing its dust and dirt while so do
doing, the portion of the plaster
touching the beams is protected
from this process of filtration
and retains its natural white
color.
Frofesscjr N. B. Webster ex
plains this by saying: "The
white streaks on plastered ceil
ings, often noticed in churches
and halls, are always just under
beams or joists, the intermediate
spaces being darkened by deposits
of dust in the air which have fil
tered up through the porous plas
ter on the lathes. The beams,
however, obstruct the passage of
the air, so the plaster on the other
sidp of them is not colored. It
should be remembered that a
plaster ceiling, being quite porous,
is a strainer for the air which is
constantly passing through it
when the air on the opposite side
is not of the same temperature."

and they were having such a good
time that they might have forgot
ten to go home at all if all of a
sudden Larry hadn't shaken Eileen's
arm and said, "Look there!"
"Where?" Eileen said.
"There!" said Larry. "The rough
man with the brown horse."
The moment Eileen sata the man
with the brown horse she took
Larry's hand and hey both ran as
fast as they could back to their
father.
"We saw the Tinker!" they cried
the moment they saw Mr. McQueen.
"Then we'd as well be starting
home," said Mr. McQueen. "I'd
rather not be meeting the gentle
man on the road after dark."
He got Colleen and put her into
the cart once more. Then he and
the Twins had something to eat.
They bouhj a ginger cake shaped
like a raobit, and another like a
man from one of the hawkers, and
they bought some sugar sticks, too,
and these, with what they had
brought from home, make their sup

I'MTHEGUY!
I'M THE GUY who grafts free
rides from the automobile salesmen
on the bluff that he's going to buy a
car.
I have no idea of buying one, but
I do like to take a spin out in the
country or even through the city
now and then, and that is one way
I can enjoy the fun without having
to pay for it.
If I caii ring some friends or my
family in on it, so much the better.
The more the merrier so long as I
am not paying for the gas
Of course, the time the salesman
wastes on me he might be devoting
to a real customer, and it may cost
him a good commission now and
then, but that's no part of my wor
ries. I get the rides and that's all
I care about. If he wants to lose
ary sleep over what he may have
lost let him grow the wrinkles.
, I only wish they'd make even
more digerent kinds of automobiles.
Then I could graft more rides.
