Flower

Mrs. Sarah NJ. Black Of Seneca,
Mo-, during the past two years has
been affected with Neuralgia Of the
Head, Stomach and Womb, and
writes: my food did not seem to
strengthen me at all and my appe-
tite was very variable. Ny face
was yellow, my head dull, and I had
such pains in my left side. In the
morning when I got up I would
have q flow Of mucous In the mouth,
and q bad, bitter taste. Sometimes
my breath became short, and I had
such queer, tumbling, palpitating
sensations around the heart. Iached
all day under the shoulder blades,
in the left side, and down the back
Of my limbs. It seemed to be worse
in the wet, cold weather Of Winter
and Spring; and whenever the spells
came on, my feet and hands would
turn cold, and I could get no sleep
at all. Tried everywhere, and got
no relief before using August Flower
Then the change came. It has done
me q wonderful deal Of good during
the time I have taken II and Is work
ing a complete cure" O

THE FIRST FLAG.


The first American flag that was saluted
by any foreign nation Is owned by Mrs.
II. r. P. Stafford, Of Cottage City, Mass.
The flag has thirteen stripes and twelve
stars. The patriotic ladies Of Philadel-
phia presented ii to John Paul Jones,
whose name has become famous for the
successful victories he gained for America.
1t floated from the mast Of the Bon Homme
Richard 10 It's engagement with the Eng
lish vessel Scraps, and was shot away
and fell into the water. Mr.. James Bay
ard Stafford, father Of Mrs. StafFord's hus-
band, a lieutenant, jumped into the water
and saved IL from an untimely fate. He
was wounded by British sword and dis
abled for life. After the war was over the
flag was presented to him for meritorious
service. Three thousand dollars has been
offered for these old "Stars and Stripes"
II was exhibited at the Centennial by
Lieutenant Stafford's daughter. At the
Inauguration Of President Harrison it was
carried in the procession.

1t is literally true that harvesting isgo-
;ng on in some parts of the world all the
year round. Excepting November and
December there is not a month in which
wheat and other grains are not being
harvested In December and January
the harvest of Chill, the Argentine Re
public, of parts of Australia and New
Guinea, is being gathered. In February
and March the wheat harvest of the East
Indies is cut, while in May comes the
harvest of Texas, Japan, China, Turkey,
Asia Minor, Tunis, Algiers, Morocco, and
Egypt. June is the harvest month of
California, Spain, Portugal, South Italy,
Sicily, and Greece, while in July the
reapers are at work in France, Austria,
the central United States, and Black SCI.
departments of Russia. In August the
harvester travels farther north, and the
crop of Germany, England, Belgium,
Holland, Central Russia, the Northern
States of this country, and of parts of
Canada is gathered, while September finds
the cleaners at work in Scotland, North
Canada, South Sweden and Norway, and
North Central Russia. In October and
the first days of November the last of the
grain is harvested in the extreme north

Americans are bad walkers, says
writer in the New York World. 1t is
rare to find an exception, even in our
Army. Among Europeans, and the alb
origines of our own continent, a noble
mien is not uncommon. l understand
the causes of this ugly defect among our
people, and my present purpose is to call
attention to it and to point out the
remedy.
In the English and French books on
the military drill and physical training
whole chapters discuss the subject of
walking. We are told that this or that
part of the foot must touch the ground
tirst-that the angles must be so and so,
etc. l will not say this advice is not
right, but l will say that very few have
been helped by it.
Look at good walker. Shoulders,
head, and hips drawn well back and the
chest thrown forward What a firm,
vigorous tread Such walk may easily
be secured by carrying weight upon
the head. An iron crown has been de-
vised for this purpose, 1t consists of
three crowns, one within the other, each
weighing dboul llue pOuhuS' oIit VI an
three may be worn at time.
The water carriers of southern Europe,
although belonging to the lowest class,
hav noble bearing. Certain negroes
in the South, who tote" burdens upon
the head as a business, can readily be
pointed out in a crowd. The effort re-
quired to keep the burden directly over
the spine so developed the muscles of the
back and neck that in the absence of the
burden the head is carried in noble,
erect attitude.
By carrying one of these crowns upon
the head half an hour two or three times
day while walking in the garden or
through the halls of the house, one may
soon become fine walker. One-tenth
of the time occupied in learning few
tunes ON the piano given to this exercise
would insure any girl noble carriage.
The crown is not necessary. Any weight
which does not press upon the very crown
of the head, but about it, will answer the
purpose equally well.

Heads of More and Raleigh.

When the wise and witty Sir Thomas
More was beheaded, his head was stuck
on a pole on London Bridge, where it
was exposed for IA days, much to the
grief of his daughter, Margaret Roper,
who resolved to secure it. Zone day, {"
says Aubrey, "as she was passing under
the bridge, looking at her fathers head
she exclaimed: That head has lain many
time in my lap; would to God it would
fall into my lap as l pass under! She
had her wish, and it did fall into her
lap" Probably she had bribed one of the
keepers of the bridge to throw it over
just as the boat approached, and the ex-
clamation was intended to avert the sus-
picion of the boatmen. AT all events,
she got possession of it, and preserved
it with great care in leaden casket until
her death, and it is now inclosed in a
niche in the wall of her tomb in st.
Dustan's church, Canterbury.
Sir Walter Raleigh's head, in red bag,
was carried to his wife, who caused it to
he embalmed and kept it with her all her
life, permitting favored friends, like
Bishop Goodman, to see and even to kiss
it. His son, Carew Raleigh, afterward
preserved it with similar pietl 1t is
supposed now to rest in the Church of
West Horsley, Surrey.
