A Touching Demonstration.

Shortly after the surrender of the
Southern army Gen. r. h. Lee was
riding along one day through a rather
dreary sire Oh of country in Virginia
when he espied plain old countryman,
mounted on a sorry nag coming toward
him. AS they passed each other both
bowed, as is the fashion when stran-
gers meet in out-of-the-way places, but
the old farmer in the home-spun suit
stared hard at the soldierly figure as
though not quite certain of recogni-
tion. He went his way little further,
then turning his horse around, cantered
back and soon came up with the Cen
eral again.
Il beg pardon, sir, but is not this
Gen. Robert Lee?"
YES, am Gen. Lee. Did l ever
meet you before, my friend?"
Then the old Confederate grasped
the chieftain's hand, and with the
tears streaming down his face, said
Gen. Lee, do you mind if cheer you?"
The General assured him that he
didn mind, and there, on that lone
some, pine bordered highway, with no
one else in sight, the old rebel veteran,
with swinging hat, lifted up his voice
in three ringing rounds Of hurrahs for
the man that the southland idolized.
Then both went their way without
another word being spoken 1t was a
display of affection which the General
never forgot.

People Who Make History.

The people who make history,

mark in any line, are the people

look. The unique feature re-

Family Magazine is in touch with
this universal desire; every month
two pages are devoted to superb
half-tone portraits, quite equal to
photos, and about cabinet size, OF
celebrities of every class and all
eras, which are printed so they
may be removed from the maya
zine without mutilating it, and ar
ranged in an album especially de-
signed TO accommodate them. Ev'

opportunity for indulging in the
fashionable fad of collecting p0r
