DICKENS LEARNING THE POLKA

He Would Practice Gravely In n Corner
without Music or Partacr.
"My father insisted that my sister
Katie and | should teach the polka
step to hin and Mr.. Lee2h," writes
Mamie Dickens in the Ladies' Home
Journal. rMy father was Us much in
earnest about learning to take that
wonderful step correctly as though
there was nothing of greater inpor-
taEce in the world. Often he would
practice gravcly in corner without
either partner or music, and | rcmcm-
Der one cold winters night his awaken
ing with the fear that he had forgotten
the step so strong upon him that, jump
ing out of bed, by the scant illumlna-
ton of the old-fashioncd rushlight
and to his own whistling, he diligently
rchearscd its 'one, two, one, two until
he was once more secure in his knowl-
edge.
mo one can imagine our excitement
andnervousness whep the evening came
on which we were to dance with our
pupils. Katie was to have Mr.. Lecch,
who was over six feet tall, for her part
ner. while my father was to be mine.
My heart beat so fast that could scarce
ly breathe, was so fearful for the sue
cess of our exhibition. But my fears
were groundlcss, and we were greeted
at the finish of our dance with hearty
applause which was more than COM
pcnsation for the work which had been
expended upon its learning.
my father was certainly not what in
the ordinary acccptation of the term
would be called good dancer"
doubt whether he had ever received
any instruction in "thc noble art other
than that which my sister and gave
him, In later years remember trying
TO teach him the schottischc, dance
which he particularly admired and de-
sired to learn. But, although he was
so fond of dancing, except at family
gatherings at his own or his most init
mate friends houses, never remember
seeing him participate"

Walton meaning "all right" used not
only in current talk but in serious bust
ness, rs in the marking of documents,
etc. 1t is plausibly held by the Brook
Ign Eagle that in carly colonial days
the best rum and tobacco were i'm
ported from Aux Cages, in San Domin-
60 Hence the best of anything came
to be known locally as Aux Cages or o..
X. The term did not, however, pass
into general use until the presidential
campaign of 1928, when the very much
supposed illitcracy of Andrew Jackson,
the democratic candidate, was the stock
in trade of his wing opponents Seba
Smith, the humorist. writing under the

the story that Jackson indorscd his pa

formed the initials of coil Korrect." 1t
is not impossible that the general did
use this Endorsement and it was used by
other people also. But Mr.. Parton dis
