their hair cropped like the soldiers of
Cromwell, and others with wigs whose

Small wonder was it, therefore, that
their march, their accouterments, and
the whole arrangement OF their troops
furnished matter OF amusement TO the
well grooned, well disciplined British
soldiers. DIR. Richard Sehuckburgh

THE MAKING OF YANE[EEDOODLE

AN OST Americans know the story of
IM "The Star Spangled Banner
and Francis Key, but of the old
er song of Yankee Doodle" how many
can tell the history? Rather. how few
stop TO think that it ever had be-
ginning, taken for granted as it is, and
part and parcel of Americans as it is
from babyhood.
One tradition has it that both words
and music were of American compost
ton in pre-Eevolutionary days. but
while the verses are indisputably Uncle
Sans, neither the United States nor
any other country can read its title
clear to the rollicking old tune
Buckingham Smith, while secretary
of the American legation at Madrid in
1858, wrote TO an American gentleman
that Yankee boobies music bore a
strong resemblance TO a popular air OF
Biscay, and that a professor from
Northern Spain had recognized it as
being much like the ancient sword
dance played on solemn occasions by
the people of San Sebastian.
The professor says the tune varies

national air certainly has its origin in
the music Of the free Pyrenees:s the
first strains are identically those OF

The Mother OF PauIine-By L. Parry
Truseott. BY d. Appleton & Co. For
sale by the ST. Paul Book and Stations
cry Co.
This is an extremely painful story OF
two young people, girl and the man
to whom she was engaged, who made a
terrible mistake in their lives and tried
afterwards 10 shift the burden and
cover up the sin from the world. There
was no happiness, OF course, in their
married life, and the wife was wise
enough to know that there never would
be until they accepted their punish
ment and acknowledged their child.
The little Pauline had been adopted by
kind woman, but the mother pinned
for her until at last they decided to
adopt her, and after that things became
a little happier. In the course of time,
however, 1t was Pauline, the mother,
who told the real truth about the child,
preferring TO face ostracism rather than
live lifeSof deceit. The book is not
pleasant, but it is well written and is
valuable only in showing the inevitable
consequences Of sin and how a fault
acknowledged is half atoned for.
