There have been several invas- ions of Ireland, utost oi them pre- historic. Two only appear to have been successful: that of the Mile.- i-ans, about 1700 B C.. and that of the Normans, i171. The Milesiail ,na.mes all begin with “Mu? (son oi) or "0" Iz-randson or descend- ant), as for instance Macinnis ‘and O'Brien. The Norman used ,“F‘itz" (son of) as in GitaGeralil IThe “O" has been dropped from the majority of Mlleslan names. as in the case cf the O"1‘raynor=, whose ancestral home was south u! the Boyne River, near it.- moutn.

A singu ariy fat-med irord of the Indy Fern Asnlcnium Filix-iemina) was brought to me the other day. It was 19 inches long, and for the a icai 6 inches it looked like any oher Lady-Fern the pinnae .11 pairs gradually becom‘); larger till the lowest pair, iogeher, mea- sured 8 inches. Then there was a quick change! The pinnae grew’ half-sine 0n each side oi the mam stem or iuchis, and each divided ir-‘o two parts, making A-pointed stars set on the stem at regular intervals. These “crested" forms were once common in Brrain, but have found their way into the hands of the pint-breeders, who h-ri-ve fixed the types. Now ii’ you want them you must buy them.

The Woman's Christian Tem- perance Union are all for Prevcnt- ion rather than punishment. They believe that it is better to nuild a Icucc around the edge of the precipice. rather than to have an ambulance and police wagon in readiness below. If the drunken driver were punished drastically, if he were even treated according to the old law of "An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth". that would not give the child his two sound legs again.

The fact is that this traffic is thc Devil and every one who takes part in the traffic begins to {Jar- iake, to a greater or less ex ent, in thc character of the Founder of thc Curse. Under what other in- ilucltce could men tolerate such an injustice to a helpless child? Tltcrc is too much truth in the words c-f the guide who, in snow- ing the points of interest to a visitor of a Mainland city indicat- ed thc Magistrate's office with thc fluttering statement: “That is the ltloce witcre justice is dispcnscd with."

Small wonder that ‘justice weeps!
