A MANS GLOVE.

In, the Old Days II Served as Proxy

Inthe early days everything was not
regulhted for the people is 1t Is now
by the government and the law courts.
Europe was still young then. and pco-
pie had rough and ready means of
dealing with one another. of buying
and selling or giving goods and prop
,erty and settling disputes. A glove.
as it was very close indeed to a man's
hand, came in purse of time to be
looked upon as taking the place of the
hand itself. and sometimes took the
mans place and was made to represent
him.
For example, to open a fair it was
necessary then to have the consent and
protection of the great lord in whose
country it was going TO be held. Those
who wished to open the fair would
come to the nobleman and petition him
to be present. He might be very
busy or bored at the idea of having to
20, yet he would know that it must be
opened or his people would be discon-
tented. So he would say to the lead
ers of the people: NO. my trusty fell
lows, l can't open the fair in person.
but | will send my glove to do 1t. You
all know my glove. Nobody has one
like it in the country. 1t is the II
my lady mother embroidered for me in
colored silks and silver wire. n 1t
has a deep violet fringe. You can
hang it above the entrance Of your
fair grounds as a sign that you are
acting with my permission. If any n
disputes your right or touches his mas
ter's glove l will attend to him. That's
allw. So the glove would travel in
state to open the fair.-Westminster

Furthermore, it is the distinct
intention Of the people of the
United States to prevent Japan or
Japan's ally, Great Britain, from
ever using the canal in opposition
to the interests or the wishes of
the people of the United States,
who are clearly the constructors
and proprietors of the canal.
President Taft has done well to
reiterate the Monroe doctrine. He
has done better to declare the gov
