lacvsd st aa Irlak Giant.
Onoe upon a time, a long time ago,
when giants wets aa plenty In Ireland aa
itaa in oheese, there lived on the bor
den of th* eonnty Armagh on* Barney
MoOonneil, who lawfully came under the
above appellation, being seven feet high,
and mad* ia proportion. Hia prowoes
waa wall known, and there waa oae thing
that grieved Barney above a little, camel;
tbet he could get nobody who was able to
•tand before him in hia own country.
Mow, report Bpoke of a certain giant in
Bootland who was laboring nndsr the like
grief, and from preoiaely the same cause.
Therefore, Barney, after oonaulting hia
friends on tho subject, sent a challenge
to the Hootoh giant “to come over tu
Ireland and gat the oonoeit taken ont ef
himself.” After doe time, the bearer of
the challenge returned with jrord that it
had been aooapted, and fnrthar stated
that he waa advised lo inform Barney
that be had better make hie will, get bis
coffin made, etc., aa ha, that he was to
enconntar, never left hi* work half don*.
“Did yon see himf” asked Harney.
“Faith, an’ I did,” said tbs messenger.
“What ia he like 7” interrogated the
“Faith, Barney, avis! he’s like any
thing at all bat a mortal being.”
“How big ia be ?” said Barney, looking
bat little pleased at tha deaoription of bis
rival.
'How big ia ha, did yon say? Fail!
he's as big aa tha onld tower foreninat tha
door, an’ a head an’ shoulders on him like
Father MeGnraey’a ball. By all aoconnta
he’ll ete yon alive!"
Barney began to feel rather uncom
fortable at tha proapeet before him, and
straightway want to oonsult his wife es to
what should bt done in the event of hia
rival proving to be snob as hia messen
ger had repreaeuted. While they ware
tbne engaged, one of the ehildren came
running in and exclaimed: “Daddy!
oome to the door an' see the greet men
that's ooming np the hill!” Barney
peered throngn the ebinke of the door,
and, to his great terror, saw the monster.
One look was enough to letiafy him
that hia messenger haa not exaggerated
hie Moonnt of him, and tnrning to his
wife, he said:
“Bhelah, jewel! I'm eat up alive, for
aartin t Here cornea tha Sootoh baist to
dram your Barney.”
When Bhelah heard of tha approach of
the coming foe, and saw bar lord’s ina
bility to wag* war with one so far snperi
or in strength and sixe, aha oonoludad
that it waa only by aom* piae* of woman's
wit that her husband oonld escape from
the effair without dishonor. According
ly, aha gantly lifted the child out of the
cradle, and depositing it in the inner
room, made the (ether get in ita place,
and eovarlng him up with a quilt, gently
seated herself and returned bar work.
Atar a faw moments, in walked the cause
of all the disturbance, and demanded an
interview with the giant. Bhelah, after
motioning with her hand for him to keep
quiet, walked gently aoroes tbs floor to
where be stood, and in an undertone told
him Barney had gone ont to the woods.
The giant told her that he intended wait
ing H* retorn.
“Very well," said Bhelah. “Only don't
make a word of noise for th* life that's in
you, for there's nothing makes him more
fnriona than to bear the child crying when
be comes home.”
By this time the giant had seated him
self ou a beouh, and waa qnietly survey
ing the apartment but when his eye rest
ed on the cradle, with a look of ntterablo
astonishment, be asked what waa in it.
' 'In it I” cried Sheleh. “DouT you see
it's the ohild that's in it. An’ Heaven help
wake him! The orayturc didu t
it is being fumed—imvostint dooov-
xaixs.
