CURRENT MISCELLANY^ In a village in tbe wedt of Ireland a Jew weeks ago a child wandered away into the country and was lost. Its anx¬ ious parents, after a weary and unavail¬ ing search, reported tho matter to the constable in charge of the village. After carefully questioning them he told them that any further search for the child Would be useless without certain pre¬ liminaries, because it »vas clear to him that the poor child had been carried off by the fairies, according to their well known custom. The constable told them to make a fire and burn in it as much of a certain herb as they could find. They did so at once. Then, according to his instructions, they went again in search of the child. He had declared that the smoke of tbe burning herb would force the fairies to bring the child back, and, sure enough, on going pver the ground they had previously searched, they found the little boy asleep beside a stream. The reputation and authority of that constable have now increased a hun¬ dredfold iu ail the countryside, and very few householders in those parts Oow have the temerity to risk offending "the good people,” as they call the fairies (muoh as the Greeks used to call the furies ‘‘the Eumenides, ” or well wishing ones), by omitting to leave out every night the traditional bowl of milk and the griddle cake for their benefit, The constable himself believes his Charm brought the child back. Yet, like all tho ftoyal Irish constabulary, he has had to pass a fairly stiff examination in order to be reoeived into service.—New York Sun. TAX RECEIVER'S NOTICE.
