Rubbing 1t In.

The bad men" of the West aren't
always SO bad Even if they start
that way they sometimes get over it
after they have made their reputa-
lions sure.
There is BAT" Masterson, for ex-
ample, who is now a deputy United
State marshal in New York city.
He is quite willing to sleep under a
roof, quit roaming and keep the trig-
ger finger from twitching nervously
every ten seconds. But 1t seems
some of his new-found Eastern
friends won't let him devote his life
to useful deeds without labelling him
SO conspicuously that he might be
taken for a minstrel man. They de-
clare the regulation badge of the law
is too common thing for SO great
a man and forthwith they purpose
bedecking and bejeweling him with
another one, made of gold and stud
ded with diamonds.
OF what use the tawdry thing
would be to the poor man they do
not seem to have considered. He
wouldn't want to carry it with him,
surely, while if he left it at home il
would be just as likely to be stolen
in his absence. 1t couldn't REINFORCE
his courage-it is quite impossible
to make the full cup fuller-while it
might incite some hayward highway
men to treat with knockout drops.
So what's the use? Pray permit
the penitent BAT" to get busy, New
Workers, without making him feel
foolish and look ridiculous.

ton of 1907 Surely enough it is
sentiment upon which he is playing.
But all his efforts of that sort fade
away in comparison with another
patriotic and appealing plan-his
advocacy of the removal to the
sacred soil of the Old Dominion Of
the body of Pocahontas
General Lee knows well his his
tory and the basis it affords for an
appeal to national sentiment when
he suggests the propriety of bring
ing back from England the dust of
the world-fcnowned Algonquin prin-
cess. Pocahontas saved Capt John
Smiths life at a time when Anglo
Saxon civilization had not gained a
firm foothold in the wilderness of
America. Had he lost his life at the
command of King Powhatan, who
can say how changed would have
been the course of American destiny :?
England has always realized that
it owed much to the dusky maiden
who braved the wrath of her impe-
rlouS father History records how the
big wigs of that day welcomed her
to their tight little isle as the wife
of Rolfe, and of the whole king
dom's sorrow on her death SO shortly
afterward. Every Englishman knows
that what England gained through
the sparing of Smiths life can be
measured not only in national SEN
timent but in material prosperity.
In the mad rush after commercial
results in the present era, America
has given less time to the historical
causes of 300 years ago. But the
mere mention of General Lees plan
is sure to arouse a national senti-
ment that his suggestion is eminent
ly patriotic and proper, and that it's
consummation in connection with the
jamestown tercentenary is as fitting
and timely as the circumstances per-
nit.

GIVING THE BRIDE AWAY.

Now there Is change in the manner
or following the time-honored custom OF
giving bride away. For years it was
customary for the father, or relative
standing as sponsor for the bride, to
take her by the hand and give her into
the keeping of the bridegroom. Under
the new mode the relative giving the
bride away simply stands beside her
without taking her hand Persons who
do not keep in close touch with changes
in customs, even in wedding ceremonies
We're surprised when President Roose-
Welt gave away his niece by simply
standing beside her and not taking her
hand in the old-fashloned way Some OF
them still are wondering whether that
was just a popularity of the President
or II he had forgotten the old CUSTOM
