THE HISTORY OF THE SHAMROCK.
When King Kerry, surrounded by his
lords, vassals and Druids, was celebrat
ing his birthday at Tara, the ancient cap
ital of Ireland, it happened to be on the
eve of Easter. The time had come
when all the fires were to be extinguish
cl, that, after a white, they might be re
lighted from the sacred torch consecrated
to the heathen gods. In the interval of
hallowed darkness suddenly there ap
peared a brilliant light at the top of the
Slope of Chariots. The sparks and
liames rose from the mysterious camp, in
profanation of the ancient faith of Tara.
Uho had dared to profane the sacred
darkness by unholy fires? What bold
blasphemer ventured to light the torch
until the flame had been brought from
oie altar ot the gods? The warrior
grasped their arms and rushed up the
h ' to tear the infidel to pieces. They
seized him and dragged him down to the
hall of judgment; but all the while he
reciting prayers to the unknown
sod; and when brought before the as
sembly of enraged idolaters, St. Patrick,
'iio for seven years had been Milcho's
herdsman slave, stood forth, like the
heroic Paul, and answered for himself,
kt his lonesome captivity he had learned
love the Irish people, and with the
harden of salvation he had traversed the
'~ Tcat Plains from the mouth of the Boyne
to the Slope of the Chariots. He stood
preached to them all night—from the
tuth 01 the stars till the grand ascension
the suu. He spoke as never man had
'l'Oken in Tara. He told them the story
of the Nazarene, of the Blessed Trinity
—Father, Son, and Holy Ghost—of Bap
' sm > °f the Eucharist—of all the su-
Fune faith of the Church of Rome. To
wards daylight the people began to be*
>o, ana fell into debate, one with ano
toer. The arch-Druid, the King, and
beautiful maidens, were converted
ana baptised. The tumult increased ;
t! j e ,rue fires of heaven were blazing in
valley of Paganism, and St.
|atnck preached on until the day-dawn
to reveal the course of the Black
er ’ the B °yne, and the hills of Cavan,
anu i t ‘ le heights of Slane. But the people
. not not understand the strange
Uuurme 01 the Trinity—how three psTr
sllou'ul constitute one God—and,
t "‘ 11 Wight, their hearts began to re-
\ lr “ tu tlleir idols. Suddenly the Apos
. f lll £id up a sprig of Shamrock,
M ‘' ll had been holding up its triple
pa -nis in adoration of the one true God,
a -- holding it forth, he showed the peo-
I c mm three leaves growing from a
c‘ f-.-'ik constituted but one. In
stantlv the quick-witted people under
stood the mystery; they rushed upon the
Apostle, and would have carried him on
their shoulders, and from that hour
Druidical superstition was overthrown
upon the Plains of Prostration.

Almost every day we hear many per*
sons complaining of headache, loss of ap
petite. and that they are not fit to do
anything, Ac. Many is the day that we
have felt so ourselves, and in fact have
gone- to bed and imagined ourselves sick,
but for the life of us could not tell what
was the matter. One day while thus
complaining, a friend said to us, “Why
don’t you try Plantation Bitters? they
are really a good thing and will make
you feel like anew man.” Upon his
recommendation we purchased a bottle,
and took them according to the direc
tions. They seemed to go right to the
spot, and gave us immediate relief.
Ever since we have taken every op
portunity to recommend them.

THE AVE iUVRIA.
A Catholic Journal, Particularly devoted to the Holv
Mother ot God. Published Weekly at Notre Dame
l mversity, Indiana. Encouraged and approved by
the highest authority of the Church.
This paper, the lirst ever established in the New
World tor the interests of the Blessed Virgin is ad
dressed not to nominal Christians, but solely to such
as love the Mother of Jesus and wish to see her known
and honored through the land ; commending itself
not only to the various pious Associations in honor of
Our Blessed Lady—such as the Living Rossarv
Scapulars, Children of Mary, Sodalities, etc., —but to
the whole community.
In order to secure the permanency of our under
taking, and to place it beyond the contingencies to
which similar enterprises are often liable ; to bind our
successors to continue a publication which we con
6i<l(*red one ot the most pleasing features of Notre
Dame as a Religious Institution, aud alike one of the
best services our Congregation could render Religion
in this New World, we proposed from its inception to
found the Ave Maria, chiefly and principally on the
basis ot Life. Subscript ion s . In a pecuniary point of
view, the prolit was all for our- Subscribers. W’e were
taken to task by some of our best friends, for offer
lng a Life Subscription at Twenty Dollars we
heeded not the criticism. We even added the promise
ot the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass to be celebrated
Saturday at Notre Dame for Life Subscribers,
\\ lth a certain number ot Communions on the same
daj ftoin fifty to sovouty-livc, by wav of .sulfiTi <r 6S

munions with indulgences and pravers to be offered
individually for departed “Life Subscribers,” as it
would please our heaveniy Father to call them from
our midst. f
