HISTORY OF
YANKEE DOODLE

Yankee Doodle is good deal like
Topsy. 1t was never born. just grow
ed" The words are the product OF the
Revolutionary war. but the history OF
the tune is bewildering. One authority
says the air. Nancy Dawson" which
we know as yankee Doodle" ante
dates the American Revolution by Ia
years. During Cromwell's time some
rustic bard wrote:
Nankey Doodley came to town.

dictionaries as a foolish or trifing Eel.

yankee Doodle" had its beginning In
England, Spain. Hungary and Holland
In support of Holland as its birthplace
the following story Is told:
A song was used In harvest tine by
the laborers who had immlgrated from
Germany to Holland. They received
for their work as much buttermHk as
they could drink and tenth Of the
grain harvested. They sang these
words to the tune Of Yankee DOODLE

Revolution, 1t has a definite career
after It came to America. 1t has been
the marching tune Of all victorious ar
mics of American patriots and will be
the measured tread Of coming millionf
even II its character is comical, rampant
and somewhat rattle brainish. 1t was
brought to us in ITS, when the Brit
ish were warning against the French
and Indians. The militia was called
| to aid the British regular army. They
were strangely clad In many colors
some in long coats. some IN short
coats, many with no coats at all. In
the British army was one DR.. Richard
Shackbury. He not only mendec
broken bones. but was q musician as
well. One day. in playing joke on
the militia because Of their grotesque
figures and awkward manners. with
mock solemnity he presented the
words and music of Yankee Doodle
The Joke pleased the well dressed
British officers. but as a joke 1t proved
q dismal failure. 1t became the battle
march of the colonists. Whenever
the tune was played 1t raised shouts
of laughter from the British-that Is
it did until after the battle Of Lexing
ton. Then the colonists made the Brit

STORY OF AN
indian BOY

No people are possessed Of greater
share Of natural politeness than the
Indians, wrote Isaac Weld In 1888
They will never interrupt while
another Is speaking, nor II one has
told them anything which they think
to be false will they bluntly contra
dict him. They deem 1t highly be-
coming in warrior to accommodate
his manners to those Of the people
with whom he may happen to be. The
following anecdote Is told by Mr.. Weld
In 'How Our Grandfathers Liv ed"
Our friend Nekig, the Little Otter,
had been invited to dine with US at
the house Of a gentleman at Detroit,
and he came accordingly, accompanied
by his little son, boy Of nine or ten
years.
After dinner variety Of fruits was
served, and among the rest were some
peaches. dish Of which was handed
to the young Indian.
He helped himself to one with be.
coming propriety, but Immediately
afterward he put the fruit to his
mouth and bit piece out Of It.
The father eyed him with indigna'
ton and spoke some words to him In
a low voice which I could not under.
stand, but which, on being interpreted
by one Of the company. proved to be
a warm reprimand for his having been
80. deficient in observation as not to
peel his peach as he saw the gentle.
man opposite him had done.
The little fellow was extremely
ashamed Of himself, but he quickly re
trieved his error by drawing a plate
toward him and peeling the fruit with
the greatest neatness. Some drink tc
which he was afterward helped NOT
being by any means agreeable to his
palate, the little fellow made a wry
face, as a child might naturally do
This called forth another reprimand
from the father, who told him that he
despaired Of ever seeing him a great
man or a good warrior If he appeared
thus to dislike what his host hat
kindly given him. The boy took the
rest of his drink with seeming pleas
