HAS SEEN GREAT CHANGES
Venerable Cigar Store Indian Witness
Of Remarkable Period Of the
Earth's Progress.

An Indian girl who has stood on SEN
tinel duty In front of cigar store in
Bellefontaine for almost half IA cen
fury has witnessed other women
adopt Tho customs of The original
Americans of painting their faces. But
the Indian maiden never used lip
stick. says the correspondent of the
Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Folks who graduated from Bellefon-
tame high school 30 years ago and
who have seen life-size figure in
wood OF an American Indian standing
In front of "A cigar store in West Co
lumbus avenue since their earliest re-
membrance, express wonder today at
the good state of preservation of this
representative of the first Americans.
How old she is is not thoroughly es-
tablished, w. l. Stokes, owner of the
cigar store where the Indian makes
her headquarters, recalls that the In
dian was already I'm RcllefOntaine
when Albert Bodey came there in 1876
and engaged I'm the tobacco business.
A visitor In Bellefontaine last sum
mer told Mr.. Stokes, who is the sue
cessOr I'm business OF Mr.. Bodey. that
his father was the only man i'm the
United States who ever made these
once popular tobacco store signs and
that from the style of this figure he
estimated this one was manufactured
during the COS. The cost at that time,
he said, was $500
In all the time the Indian has stood
on guard in Belefontaine she has
moved but once That was from one
side OF the street to the other
But while she has remained sta
tlonary the world has moved on.
There were no telephones, no electric
lights, no street cars in Bellefontaine
when she first began sentinel duty.
Automobiles were not thought Of and
she was an object of much concern
to shy horses who happened 10 he
hitched In front of the store where
her gnudy paint attracted attention.
In that early day Indians were the
only human beings who painted their
faces. While this Indian has been
on duty she has seen popular taste
I'm smokes change from "twofers' 10
cigarettes. She has witnessed the
once despised cigarette come into its
own-even into the mouths of promi
nent people. including long-whisker3d
granddads and fair debutantes. She
has seen the plug and fine cut tobac-
co have rival In scrap
She has seen the sidewalk where
she stands swept by the long trains
Of dresses and now she witnesses the
flappers who wear their skirts well
above the tops Of their high shoes.

The Charm Of Bad Acting.

And what is the secret of the para
dox? The secret, very simply, is that
bad acting often enchants, by virtue
OF its very artlessness, where highly
proficient acting leaves one cold. Act
ing that lacks sound artistic design Is.
in this, much like some ugly old easy
chair 1t has much of the coy ease
and agreeable friendliness that a beau.
tiful, stiff Sheraton lacks.
If acting is an art at all, 1t is the
baby art. And like a baby, sophistl-
cation is, or should be, relevantly q
stranger TO It. Acting that is polished
to the last degree is like n butler
distingulshedly lifeless. Mankind is
itself bad and fitful actor. Imita-
tions of mankind upon the stage

MAY REMODEL UNION JACK
Ireland's New Position in British En-
pire Likely to Bring Change
in Famous Flag.

Among the lesser and more senti-
mel tai sacrifices the British feel they
are making for Irish peace, there is
the prospect of the changed Union
Jack.
The diagonal red cross in the Union
Jack stands for Ireland. The original
national flag was the banner of st.
George, a plain red cross on white
background. In 1906 the Scottish flag,
white diagonal cross and blue
background, was blended with the
English cross and placed over the
white upright cross, with blue
background of the diagonal white cross
being added.
On the death of Charles | the cross
of st. George again became the ma
tional flag, but in 17O6, after the
union with Scotland, the cross stand
ard with the blue background vas
restored. In 1901 the red cross of st.
Patrick was super-imposed on st. An
drew's cross, making the present
Union Jack.

NOT A MATTER FOR POLICE
Elderly Gentleman Meant Well, but
He Had Not Allowed for Pos

The wisest person may sometimes
make serious mistake by judging
entirely by appearance, as is shown
by this case.
A careless young woman, in starting
to leave car, dropped her purse. A
young man, who evidently, intended to
leave the car at the same time, saw
her drop the purse, picked it up and
put 1t into his pocket.
But his action had not been unno-
ticed. Just as he stepped from the
car an elderly man gripped him by the
arm and whispered: IF you don't give
that purse to the young lady this in
slant I'll expose you"
Eyes, certainly!' gasped the aston
ished young man.. Then, with grin.
IT beg pardon, Marie; you dropped
your purse"
"Oh, thank you. Harry" she replied,
as she took it.

ry, turning to the elderly man. "The

was a look of question and pleading.
She turned away, her young blood
thrilling with the premonition of ro-

Again she felt his longing but hess
liant gaze fixed upon her averted face.
She flashed him fleeing look of en-.

his eager breath tanning her flushed
cheek and whispered, hoarsely:
