The Plaisham. Br EHIAB MAC MAM'S. Author of "Through the Turt Smoke," "In Chimney Corners,” etc. Copyright, 1900, by Seumas MacManus. pjancy and Shamus were man and wife, and they lived all alone together for forty years, but at length a good-for-nothing eireel of a fellow named Rory, who lived close by, though what a fine thing It would be If Shamus would die, and he marry Nancy, and get the house, (arm . and all the stock. • So he up and said to Nancy: "What a pity It is for euch a line-looking woman g, you to be bothered with that ould com plainin' good-for-nothing crony of a man (bat’s as full of pains and aches as on f -g's full of meat. If you were free of bim the morrow, the finest and handsom est young man In the parish would be prouil to have you for a wife.” At first Nancy used to laugh at this, but at last, when he kept on at it, It began t 0 prey on Nancy's mind, and she said to young Rory one day: "I don't believe a word of what you say. Who would take me if Shamus was buried the morra?” "Why.” says Rory, "you'd have the pick of the parish. "I’d take you myself.” ■•ls that true?” says Nancy. "I pledge you my word,” says Rory, “I would'" v •'Oh, well, even if you would Itself," *§r%L While Shamus was Crying There, Up to Him Comes a Wee Red Man. says Nancy, "Shamug won’t be buried to morrow, or maybe, Gad help me, for ten years lo come yet.” “You’ve all that In your own hands,” •lye Rory. How's that?” says Nancy. "Why, you can kill him oft,” says Rory. “I wouldn't have the ouM erature’s blood on my head,” says Nancy. "Neither you need,” says Rory. And then- he sat down and began to tell Nancy how she could do away with Bhamus. and still not have his blood on her head. Now there was a Prince called Connal, who lived in a wee soil house close by Nancy and Sharons, whose fathers before btm. ere their monay was wasted, used to live in a grand castle. So next day over Nancy goes to this Prince and lo him says: “Why, Prince Their Eyes were Opened to See the Magnificent Castle that was Standing Finished. Connal, Isn’t It a shame to see the likes •f sou livin' In the likes of that house.” know it is.” said he, "but I cannot do any better.” Koiheration,” says Nancy, “you easily can. '• 1 wish you would tell me how,” says Pinnae Connal. " by.” says Nancy, "there's my Sha mu* bns little or nothin* to do, an' why don t you moke him build you a castle?” A b." says the Prince, laughing, “sure, • iamus couldn’t build me. a casctle.” "ays Nancy; "You don't know Bho ~) Uf ' fr >r there's not a thing In the wide or M he couldn't do If he likes to, but that laiy, that If you don’t break ~ bone In his body to make him do ‘ . ho won't do It.” ,J„ S that so?” says Prince Connal. ‘bin's so,” says Nancy. "So If you an - Shamus to build you a castle an' “‘kc his life If he doesn't, you'll soon are „ gran(J cagtle to n V e In,” says •he. "ell, if that's so,” says Prince Con '' "bll not he long wanting a castle." 0 on the very neat morning, over he •Ps to Shamus', calls Shamus out, and ’**'* him With him to the place he had ““‘‘kfd out for thp g | tc of his castle "1 shows It to Shamus, nnd tells him f wants him to have a grand castle “‘id finished on that spot In three time. says Shamus, says he, ”1 "'Trr a castle In my life. I know oihlng about It, an' 1 couldn't hav# you a castle there In thirty-three years, let alone three weeks.” "O!” says the Prince, says he. “I’m toul’ there’s no man in Ireland can build a castle better nor faster than you if you only like to, and if you haven't that castle built on that ground In three weeks,” says he, •si’ll have your life. So now, choose for yourself.” And he walked away and left Shamus standing there. When Shamus heard this he was a down-hearted man, for he knew that Prince Connal was a man of his word, and he would not stop at taking any man’s life any more than he would from putting the breath out of a beetle. So down he sits and begins to cry, and while Shamus was crying there, up to him comes a Wee Red Man. and said to Shamus: “What are you crying about?" "Ah, my poor man,” says Shamus, says he, "don’t be asking me, for there’s no use in telling you, you could do noth ing to help me.” "You don't know that," says the Wee Man, says he, "it's no harm to tell me, anyhow.”. So Shamus, to relieve his mind, ups ;and tells the Wee Man what Prince Connal had threatened to do to him if he had not a grand castle finished on that spot in three weeks. Says the little man, says he: "Go to the Faires’ Glen at moonrlse the night, and under the Rockin' stone at the head of the Glen, you'll find a white rod. Take that rod with you and mark out the plan of the castle on this ground with it; then go back and leave the rod where you got It, and by the time you get back again, your castle will be fin ished.” At moonrlse that night Shamus, a* you may be well assured, was at the Rockin’ stone at the head of the Glen of the Fairies, and from under It he got a little white rod. He went to the hill where the Prince’s castle was to be built, and and with the point of the rod he marked out the plan of the castle, and then he went hack and left the rod where he got it. The next morning when Prince Connal got up out of bed and went out of his little sod hut to take the air, his eyes were opened. I tell you, to see the mag nificent castle that was standing finished, and with the coping stones on it on the hill above. He lost no time till he went over to thank Shamus for building him such a beautiful castle, and when Nancy heard that the castle was finished. It was she that was the angry woman. She went out and looked at the castle, and she wondered and wondered, too, but she said nothing. She had a long chat with Rory ttlit day again, and from Rorjj ehe went off to Prince Connal. and says she: "Now, didn't I tell you right well what Shamua could do?" "I see you did," says Prince Connal, "nnd It Is very thankful to you I am. I’m contented now for life,” says he, "and I'll never forget yourself and Sha mus.'’ "Contented:” soys she, "why that place Isn’t half linfshed yet.” "How's that?” says Prince Connal. "Why," says she, “you need a beautiful river flowing past that castle, with lovely trees, and birds singing In the branches, nnd you should have the ocean roaring up beside It." "Hut still," wavs Ptlnce Connal, says he, "one can't have everything. This la a hundred miles from a river and a hun dred miles from an ocean, and no tr. es ever grew on this hill, nor ever coull grow on it, nnd no bird over sang on it for the last 300 years." •'Then all the more reason," save she, "why you should have ail these things." "But I can't have them," say* Prince Connal. ‘‘Can't you?” says she. "Yes, you can. If you promise to have Shamus* life un less he has you all those things by your castle in three days, you'll soon have all you want,” say* Nancy. "Well, well, that'* wonderful,' *ay THE MOHNING NEWS: SUNDAY, JULY 15, 1900. SAVES MEAT LIEBIG COMPANY’S EXTRACT OF BEEF Makes Meat Cos Further Makes Soup Taste Richer Prince Connal, says he, "and I'll do It.” So he seta out and goes to Shamus* house and calls Shamus out to him to tell him that his castle was very bare looking without something about it. Says he: "Shamus, I want you to put a beau tiful river flowing past it, with plenty of trees and bushes along the banks, and also singing birds singing in them; and I want you to have the ocean roaring up by it also.” "But, Prince Connal,” says Shamus, says he, “you know very well that I couldn’t get you these things.” "Right well I know you can,” says rrinca Connal, "and I'll give you three days to have ail them things done; and if you haven’t them done at the end of three days, then I'll have your life.” And away goes Prince Connal. Poor Shamus he sat down and began to cry at this, because he knew that he could not do one of these things. And as he was crying and crying he heard a voice in his ear, and looking up he saw the Wee Red Man. "Shamus, Shamus,” says he, "what's the matter with you?” "O,” says Shamus, says he, “there's no use in telling you what’s the matter wish me this time. Although you helped me before, there's not a man in all the world could do what I’ve got to do non-.” "Well,” says the Wee Red Man, "any how if I can’t do you any good. I'll do you no harm.” So Shamus, to relieve his mind, ups and tells the Wee Red Man what’s the matter with him. "Shamus,” says the Wee Red Man, says ItT;- He Found tne fliner Hanging from One of the Branches of the Sciog Bush. he, “I’ll tell you what you’ll do. When the moon’s rising to-night be at the held of the Glen of the Fairies, and at the upring well there, you’ll find a cup and n leaf and a feather. Take the leaf and the feather with you. and a cup of water, and go back to the castle. Throw the water from you as far as you can throw it, and then blow the leaf off your left hand, end see what you’ll eee.” Shamus promised to do this, and when the moon rose that night, Shamus was at the spring well of the Glen of the Fairies, and he found there a cup, a leaf and a feather. He lifted a cup of water and took it with him, and the leaf and the feabher and started for the castle. When he came there he pitched the cup of water from him as far as he could put it, and at once the ocean that was a hundred miles away came roaring up beside the castle, and a beautiful river that had been flowing a hundred miles on the other side of the castle, came flowing down past it into the ocean. Then he blew the leaf off his left hand, and the trees and the bushes were filled with all sorts and varie ties of lovely singing birds that mode the most beautiful music he ever had h^ard. And maybe that was not a surprise to Frlnce Connal when he got up in the morning and went out. Off he tramped to Shamus’ to thank Shamus and Nancy, and when Nancy heard this etfe was the angry woman. That day she had another long confab \\ Every One that Got Hold of It Stuck to It. with Rory, and from him she went off again to Prince Connal, and asked him how he liked his castle and all his sur roundings. He sold he was a pleased and proud man, that he was thankful to her and her man, Shamus, and that he would never forget It to them the longest day of his life. "O, but,” says she, "you’re not content. This night you'll have a great gathering of princes and lord* and gentlemen feast ing In your castle, and you’ll surely want something to amuse them. You must get e Plaisham.” "What’s a Plaisham?” sold Prince Con nal. ”0,” says Nancy. "It’s the most wonder-’ ful and most amusing thing in the world; It will keep your guests in good humor for nine days and nine nights after they have seen It.” •’Well,” says Prince Connal, "thet must be a fine thing entirely, and I’m sure I would be mighty anxious to have It, but,” says lie. “where would I get It or how would I get It?” "Well,” says Nancy, “that's easy. If you order Shamus to bring a Plaisham to your rustle by supper time this night, and promise to have his life if he hasn’t It there, he'll soon K<* >* * or Y° u '' ' "Well If that's so." soy* Prlnco Connal, "I’ll not be long wanting a Plaisham." So home went Nancy rejoicing this time, for she said to her.wlf. poor old Shamus would not lie long living now because there was no such thing known In the whole wide world as a Plaisham: and though Shamus might build castles, and bring oceans and rivers and tre-s and birds to them, all In on- night, he could not get a thing 'hat did not exist, and was only Invented by Rory. Well off to Shamus went prince Connal. without much loss of time, and called Shamus out of his little cabin. He told him he was heartily well pleased with all he had done for him. "But there’* one thing more I want you lo do. Shamus, and then I’ll be content," says he. “This night I give a grand supper to the lords, ladies and gentry of the country and I want something to amuse them, so at sup per time you must bring me a Plaisham." "A Piaisham! What’s that?” say* Sha mus. "I don’t know.” says Prince Connal. “No more do I,” soys Shamus, "an’ how do you expect me to fetch it to you, then?” "Well,” says Prince Connal, says he, "this Is all there is to be said about It— if you haven’t a Plaisham at my castle door at supper time the night, you'll be a dead man.” "0. O,” says Shamus, says he, and sat down on the ditch and begun to cry, while Prince Connal went off home. "Shamus, Shamus,” says a voice in his ears, "what ore you cryiiV about now?” Poor Shamus lifted his head and looked around, and there beside him stood the Little Red Man. “O!" eays Shamus. says he, “don’t mind asking me.” he says, “for it’s no use in telling you what's the matter with me now. You might build a castle for me,” says he, “and you might bring oceans an’ rivers to it, arv' trees an’ birds, but you couldn't do anything to help me now.” "How do you know that?” said the Lit tle Red Man. “O, I know It well,” says Shamus, says he, “you couldn’t give tne the thing that never was an' never will be!” "Well,” says (he Wee Red Man. saya he, “tell me what it Is anyhow: if I can t do you any good, sure I can't do you any harm.” So, to relieve his mind, Shamus ups and tells him that Prince Connal bad ordered him within twenty-four hours to have at his castle door a Plaisham. “But,” says Shamus, says he, "there never was such a thing as that.” "Sure enough,” soys the Little Red Man, "there never was, but still. If Prince Connal wants it, we must try to get it for him. This night, Shamus," says the Wee Red Man, says he, “go to the head of the Glen of the Fairies to the Sciog bush (Fairy thorn), where you’ll find a bone ring hanging on a branch of the thorn. Take it with you back heme. When you get home, young Rory will be chatting with your wife in the kitchen. Don't you go in there, but go into the byre (cow shed), and put the ring in the cow's nose; then lie quiet, and you'll soqn have a Plaisham to drive to Prince Connal's cas tle door.” Shamus thanked the Wee Red Man, and that night he went to the head of the Glen of the Fairies, and sure enough he found the ring hanging from one of the branches of the Sciog bush. He took it with him and started for home. When he looked in through the kitchen window, there he saw Nancy and Rory sitting over the fire, chat ting and eonfabing about how they would get rid of him, but he said nothing, only went into the byre. He put the ring into the brannet cow's nose, and as soon ts the ring went into it, the cow begun to kick and rear and create a great tendher ary of a noise entirely. Then Shamus got in under some hay In the corner. It was no time at all until Nancy was out to find what was wrong with the bran net cow. She struck the cow with her fist to quiet it, but when she hit it, her fist stuck to the cow, and she could not get away. Rory had come running out after Nancy to help her, and Nancy called: “Rory, Rory, pull me away from the cow.” Rory got hold of her to pull her away, but as he did his hands stuck to Nancy, and he could not get away himself. L’p then jumped Shamus from under the hay in the corner: "Hup, Hup!" says Shhmus says he, “drive on the Plais ham.” And out of the byre starts the cow with Nancy stuck to her, and Rory stuck to that, and heads toward the castle, with the cow rearing and rowting, and Nancy and Rory yelling and bawling. They made a terrible din entirely and routed the whole countryside, who flock ed out to see what was the matter. Down past Rory’s house the cow went, and Rory's mother, seeing him slicking to Nancy, ran out to pull him away, but when she laid her hands on Rory she stuck to him, and “Hup! Hup!” say* Bhamus, says he, “drive on the Plais ham.” So on they went, and Rory’s father ran afier them to pull the mother away, but when he laid his hands on the mother, he stuck to her, and, "Hup, Hup!” says Shamus, "drive on the Plaisham." On again they went, and they next pass ed where a man was cleaning out his byre. When the man saw the ridiculous string of them, he flur.g a gralp and a gralpful of manure at them, and it struck to Rory's father, and "Hup, Hup!” says Shamui), says he, "drive on the Plais ham.” But the man ran after to save his gralp (fork), and when he got hold of the graip he stuck to it, and "Hup, Hup!” says Shamus, says he, “drive on to Plaisham.” On they went, and a tailor came flying out of his house with his lap-board in his hand, he struck the string of them with his lap board, the lap board stuck to the last man, and the tailor stuck to it, and, "Hup, Hup!” says Shamus, says he, “drive on the Plaisham." Then they passed a cobbler's, who ran out with his heel-stick ar.d struck the tailor, but the heel-stick stuck to the tailor, and the cobbler stuck to the heel stick, and “Hup, Hup!" says Shamus, says he, "drive on the Plaisham." Then on they went, and they next passed a blacksmith's forge; the black smith ran out and struck the cobbler with his sledge, the sledge stuck to the cobbler, and the blacksmith stuck to the sledge, and "Hup, Hup!" says Shamus, eays he, "drive on the Plaisham.” When they come near the castle, they passed a great gentleman's bouse entirely and the gentleman came running out and got hold of the blacksmith to pull him away, but the gentleman stuck to the blacksmith and couH not get away him self, and "Hup! Hup!" says Shamus, says he, "drive on the Plaisham.” The gentleman's wife, seeing him stuck, ran after her man to pull him away, but the wife stuck to the gentleman, and “Hup! Hup!” says Shamus, says he, ."drive on the Plaisham.” Then their children ran after them to pull the mother away, and they stuck to the mother, and "Hup! Hup!” says Sha mus, says he, "drive on the Plaisham.” • Then the butler ran to get hold of the children, and he stuck to them, and the footman ran to get hold of the butler and stuck to him, and the cook ran to get hold of the foolman and stuck lo him, and the servants all ran to get hold of the cook and they stuck to her, and "Hup! Hup!” says Shamus, says he,* "drive oei the Plaisham." And on they went, and when they came up to the castle the Plaisham was a mile long, and the yelling and bawling and noise that they made, could be heard any where within the four seas of Ireland.

THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, GA. Th r.icket was so terrible, that Prince Connal and all his guests and all his ser vants, and all in hi house, came running to the windows to find whrft was the mat ter, at all, at all; and when Prince Con* nal sow what vhr coming to his house, and the racket they were raising, he yell ed to his Prime Minister to go and drive them off with a whip. The Prime Minister ran, meeting them and took the whip to them, but the whip stuck to them and he stuck to the whip, and "Hup! Hup!’’ says Shamus, scys he, "drive on the Plaisham.” Then Prince Connal ordered out all his other ministers and all of his servants to head it off and turn them away from his caetle, but every one of the servants that got hold of it stuck to It, and "Hup! Hup!” ••ays Shamus, says he, "drive on the Plai sfinm.” And the Plaisham moved on still for the castle. Then Prince Connal himself, with ail his guests ran. out to turn them erwav, but when. Prince Connal laid hands on the Plaisham, he stuck lo it, and when his guests laid hands on him, they stuck one by one to him, am!, "Hup! Hup!” says Shamus, says he, "drive on the Plai sham.” * And with all Che rocket and all the noise of the ranting, roaring, rearing and rowting, in through the castle hall-door drove the Plaisham, through and through it and out at the other side. The castle itself fell down and disappeared, and the honeying rolled away from the cow’s r.ose, and the Plaisham all at once broke up, and when Prince Connal looked around there was no castle at all, only the sod hut, end he went into it a sorry man. And every one else alunk off home right heartily ashamed of themselves, for the whole world was laughing at them. Nancy, she went east, and Rory, he went west, and one of them was never heard of more. As for Shamus he went home to his own little cabin, and lived all alone, happy and contented for the rest of his life, and may you and I do the same. SLIPPERY FISH. .lust Wliy Fish Are Covered With a Coating of Slime. Fish, as a rule, increase In weight and length every year up to their death. There are several varieties of fish that cannot swim; they are deep sea dwellers, and crawl about the rocks, using their tails and fins as legs. Why fish are slippery Is accounted for In this way: The slimy coating protects them from the attacks of fnngus, a form of plant life found in all waters. If a fish Is so Injured that some spot Is un covered by slime the fungus lodges there, and grows until in time It kills the fish. The slime helps also to Increase the speed of the fish through the water. In order to capture a certain fish, a South American tribe whips the water with the wood of a tree which contains a substance having a narcotic influence on the fish, which are then readily caught. One South American flsh, the anahl.ps, a star-gazer, can see in air a* well as water. Its eyes are divided into an upper and a lower portion, giving the effect of two pupils In each eye, one suit ed for seeing In the water. The fish of ten swims at the surface, with tt* head downward, something below the water line. There Is a wonderful flsh In Alaska, which, when dried. 1* used as a candle. The Alaskan insert* the tall of the dried fish in a crack of his rough, wooden table and lights its nose. The fish burns with a bright and steady flame of alxmt three candle power, giving a clear white light and considerable heat. A fairly large flsh will burn about three hours.' The flsh It* very fat, and its vertebrae are formed largely of phosphorus—thus the fai is the ta low and the vertebrae the wick of this curious candle. If necessary it can be eaten afterwards, being nicely smoked. The pollock la severely let alone by its finny brethren, for it is armed to the teeth with a formidable sting and a sac of poison. The lake lamprey of central New York is another fish which Is fero ’clous and bloodthirsty. It* mouth is (Ag ger than its head, and Its teeth are rharp and pointed like n tiger’s. The brook lamprey has never been known to eat at all. It Is supposed that he does all his eating before he becomes a real lamprey —ln the larva period—and is never hun gry afterwards. People marvel at the mechanism of the human body, with its near 500 bones, but man Is simple' in this respect compared with the carp, which moves no fewer than 4,386 bones and muscles every time it breathes. Tt tia* 4.320 veins, to say noth ing of its ninety-nine muscles. One fish has a brain larger than man’s—the whale. —Before studying for the priesthood, Patrick O'Donnell, who has Just been or dained in Cleveland, was a civil engineer and had risen to some distinction in hi* profession, having served two terms as city engineer of Lansing.
