the big athletic institution. Their first
action was to weed out something like

encouragement to the boys, handsome
medals and other prizes will be given COM

Cottolene ns . Trade-MarIr.

An important aud interesting trademark suit, which has been before the courts for some time, has recently reached decision lu the United States Circuit Court for the Southern District of New York. The suit was for an Injunction against the infringe ment of complainant's (The N K. Fairbank Company, Chicago) trade mark "Cottolene" by the use of the word "Cottoleo.n The validity of Cottolene as a trademark was made permanent by an injunction, the case being summarized by the court as follows
 "lt seems to be the law that when manu- lecturers have educat ted the public to ask for a certain article by it's trademark name, they have acquired the right to insist that products manufactured by others shall not be given to the public under that name. It is just that it should be so for the benefit derived from such name can only be ob- tained by faithful service in furnishing articles of recognized value. Moreover, if the trademark name might be adopted by others, inferior articles might then be pro duced and sold under it; and thereby the value to manufacturers of the reputation of the name used by them as a Jrade-ma would be deStroyed.n

UNCLE SAM'S FLAGS.
Where the Bunting Is Made Up Into tn
 Stars and Stripes.


 Stars and Stripes.
 Before a man-o'-war is completely equipped she must be supplied with varied assortment of the flags of all nations. The flag lockers of cruiser like the New York will contain more than two hundred different ensigns.
 All the flags for our navy are made in the equipment building at the Brook lyn navy yard. The floor on the flag room is covered with lines represent ing the exact measurements of the various designs, and it is no easy mat ter to turn out flag which will be eX- actly according to pattern, both as to design and measurement. There are eight colors used in fiags-red, white, blue, orange, yellow, green, brown, black and canary yellow. The canary yellow is used instead of white in flags used for signaling. This is because it is found that, when signaling at dis tance, a white flag or device on white ground blends with the horizon and becomes almost invisible. The largest American flag made is called No. l. It measures 34.s6 feet in length and l3.12 feet in breadth, and is very rarely used. The size called No. 9, which is considerably smaller, is the one gener- ally used by war ships. Cruisers carry the stars and stripes in seven different sizes, but only the Minneapolis and Detroit fly the gigantic No. size.
 The most difficult flag to make is that of San Salvador. The flag requires all the colors, and Costa Rica runs it close, requiring all but brown. Our own flag is by no means an easy one to make. The forty-four stars in their blue field have to be accurately arranged, and the stripes mathematically exact according to the official pattern. The stars are made of muslin, folded twenty-five times and punched out by a steel punch, which cuts a dozen or more stars at each operation. There are used in the navy yard 1000 yards of bunting an- nually, which is all made in the United States. Before being made up into flags the bunting is put to a very severe test. From each lot a sample is taken and steeped in fresh water for twenty-four hours. After that it is thoroughly scrubbed with strong soap and then rinsed and dried. It is then exposed to the direct sunlight for eight cen hours, and if it shows no fading in color it is accepted. The industry gives endowment to a great many men and women.-N. Y. Herald.

Put Salt on Coal.

At this time of the year, when the coal begins to develop such eXtraordi- nary possibilities in the way of rapid consumption, housekeepers are eagerly on the lookout for something that will, at least, prevent waste, if it cannot by any other means make a ton 'go further" There are several prepara- tions for this purpose sold under fan ciful names, but the basis of most of them is ordinary salt. If the latter is sprinkled literally over the coal, either in the bin or as it is put into the fur mace, it will make it burn more evenly to clean ash, and will also prevent clinkers. Of course, there is some chemical explanation for this, but the ordinary housewife does not care much about the reason. She is satisfied that it is so.-Philadelphia Press.
