nearly SO narrow as in that almost mort
bund organization, the Society of the
Cincinnati, to which are eligible only
the eldest sons in the male line of officers
Of the Revolutionary army.
To the Daughters any woman OF good
character can join who is descended
either directly or collaterally from a
patriot of the Revolutionary period. II
the ancestor fought in the war OF gave
help and comfort to the combatants that
is enough to entitle a woman to mem
bership. The antecedents of each can
didate must be traced back accurately
n supported by an affidavit of its cor
r%ectness. This, to be sure, is not always
easy to do, for some Americans have not
been particular in keeping their family
records. An instance of this happened
last fall in the New York chapter. A
lady joined the society. In n little while
there was an intimation from some
dear friend" that she had gained ad.

great to do. Lawyers were hired and

lessons to the people of today and to the
generations hat are to come. How best
hat this may be done is now what the
society is considering. Probably the
fayorite scheme is to erect a museum in
Washington, which shall at once be a
repository for Revolutionary relics and
a library of books and papers throwing
N light on that shining period in
American history. Here is a plan sug-
gested by Mr.. Edward Eggleston, the
novelist and historian, who has himself
been a great collector of Americana, and
is learned in all that pertains to the
formative epoch in the western re-
public. BE says, in a letter to Mrs.
Cabell, a vice president general:
Perhaps the only thing l can do to
show my sympathy with the laudable
aims of the Daughters of the American
Revolution is to suggest that there is
one part of the field of American history
of the greatest Importance that has re-
ceived but scant attention, and that is a
peculiarly appropriate field for the re-
searches of members of your society.
Daniel Webster said, I'VE need q history
of firesides.' The real causes of the
American Revolution would be disclosed
by a true history of early American fire
sides. In order to teach this it is neces-

were sent to copy inscriptions from old
tombstones and the former to trace the
young woman's descent from wills and
title deeds. When all this had been
done the facts were laid before a COM
mittee and the "dear friend" had to
withdraw her statement. 1t is pleasant
to relate that this was not only done
c~heerfully, but with elaborate and ex-
planatory apologies.
Mrs. Harrison, the wife of the presi-
lem of the United States, is the presi-
dent general, and at the congress she
made an impressive address that showed
that she was jealous in her interest in
the welfare and work of the society.
Mrs. Harrison's address was responded
to by the wife of Congressman Clifton
R. Breckenridge, of Arkansas. Mrs.
Breckenridge is the regent for that
state, and probably to nave so described
her would have been sufficient identif-
cation without mentioning her hus-
bands name. Mrs. William d. Cabell

More women of ability are trying to
write than can find room in the maya

to them in the writing of local history,

ners and customs!"
This letter was read at the first con
gress of the society held at Washington
this year, beginning on Feb. % and last
ing two or three days, and it is quite
likely that Mr.. Eggleston's suggestion
may be acted upon with most interest
ing results.
In some quarters there have been in
timations that the Daughters of the
American Revolution is an ~aristocratic
society, and that the real meaning of it
is not so much patriotic as it is to give
the women at the head Of it an opportu.

many of those who heard her why Amer

history. Mrs. Hugh Hagan, of Atlanta,
reported on the progress the society had
made in Georgia. Her story was most
attractively told, and as she has the ad-
vantage of great personal beauty and
grace of manner, she was listened to
with attention and looked at with ad-
miration.
Miss Clara Barton, of whom the world
has heard as the president of the Red

also a member of the board of regents.
She was an interested member of the

at once indicates tender sympathy and
strength Of purpose, was admired by all
who saw it.
Among other women prominently in
terested in the work Of the society are

HeartrendIng Tale Of n Dog and n Young
Woman

Heartrending Tale Of n Dog and n Young
Woman.
Never do j cease to believe in the com
ing golden age when all women will be
strong, wise and sensible, that is, nearly
all. But there are times when / get
tired of hoping, not permanently of
course, only for a few hours perhaps.
One of these occasions came recently
when l read how a Brooklyn girl wept
and boohooed in court over a little beast
of a dog. She loved that dog, the girl
did. She said she paid q hundred dol
lars for him when he was a puppy in
London. Then one day, when her pa
was taking him out for an airing, the
little brute, Darling Daffodil," she
called him, got lost. He was found and
taken care Of by a family who put him
into the dog show. The girl who loved
him SO much recognized him. l don't
know whether he had a peculiar way Of
dropping his blessed little tail or whether
he had a peculiar note in his sweet little
bark. At any rate she knew darling
Daily, and then there was a scene which
was adjourned to court. In court the
family who had taken care of the
beast two months offered to give
him up if she whose lost love he was
would pay fifty dollars for his
keep. She refused to do this, although
she had paid a hundred dollars for him
when he was only in the stage of pup
hood, and she loved him so besides.
Pending decision darling Daily was car
ried away by an unfeeling lawyer. Then
the lady who wouldn't pay fifty dollars
for his board raised the ~neighborhood
with her sobs and lamentations. A
stranger would have thought that moth
ing less han her own baby had been
ruthlessly torn from her arms. All this
when there are thousands of starving,
homeless real babies hat would grow to
be noble, intelligent human beings if
only somebody would have mercy on
them and give them a chance for life.
No wonder there are people who incline
to think women are little better than
idiots
A story is told of a teacher in a girls
school who used to cut the naughty
things out of the newspaper zach day
and then let her pupils read it. She
o quit the clipping, however, very
wisely concluding that "the evil men do
should be known to their fellow men for
the protection of the individual" Quite
right. Girls would not &c wrong as
often as they do if they knew of the

Interest in the society known as the
Daughters of the American Revolution
increases as its aim and scope are better
understood. These are very concisely
set forth in the following sections from
the second article of the constitution,
adopted when the society was organized
at Washington some two years and a
half ago:
ITO perpetuate the memory and the
spirit Of the men and women who
achieved American independence by
the acquisition and protection of his
torical spots and the erection of monu-
ments; by tine encouragement of his

luton and the publication of its results;
by the preservation Of documents and
