He became the type and exponent of a world of picturesque rough riding, of reé kless bravery, of keen vision and straight shooting. He spoke for the Indian world, too, for he possessed great knowledge of Red Men and great in- fluence over them, and the Indians i whom he selected to represent their] race in his show were typical of their people and of its old life But most of the experiences which he ined in the old wild life of the West was gained before he was 30 years old. Nearly all the rest of his life was the organized of that pe riod that not ony did it make a life- work for Cody himself, but all America, and most of Europe be- side, with a system of venture and a concourse ‘and huntsmen whic ficence, world pr Homer. |} chieftains themselves an Iliad for many ceneration of him fade from the minds of Amer- ica or Europe. reminiscence upplied tion ¢ actio of w under canva will the memory His youthful experience certainly caught the Wild West at its maxi- mum. His own father had been killed in the border fighting out of which John Brown emerged to plunge the republic into the fearful test of the Civil War. As a pony express rider, “Bill” knew what it was to fight for his life against desperate chances, and to read life or death in the merest scratch of a trail on the} surface of the earth. He lived what we read in Parkman’s Trail.” It was a striking commentary on the destructive recklessness of thar epoch, with all its personal heroism, that Cody gained the name by which he was known to the world by killing 4280 buffaloes in 18 months to pro- vide beef for the workmen who built the Pacific railroad. Before he died, the old life had all disappeared. Cow- boys wwe still have, but they are as tame and as unpicturesque as Boston truck drivers. The Indian is ‘several- tied” and civilized, and the blanket and the eagle-feather are to him now no more than a masquerade. The motor car honks where wolves once bowled. Cody had long outlived his Wild West, but the memory of it will! survive, and it is to his credit that he crystallized it all into the visible form in which most of his countrymen will remember it. And he was always in- tensely American, always a dynamo in ‘the Boston Transcript.

The reason an old man knows a Young man is making a fool of him- self is because the old man remem- bers when he did the same thing. Or maybe the Insurance rates are going up because the insurance men are afraid such hot weather will spon- taneously combust something. The premier of Newfoundland says the war is practically over. Still it may be some little Job to put on the finishing touches. Ignorance of the law, is well known, excuses no man; not even when it is ignorance of the automo- bile law.
