Ours the Oldest Flag.

Few people know the flag of the
United States is older than those OF
the other great nations, says the New
York Tribune. The Union Jack, the
present British emblem, dates from
1901. The French tri-color was adopt
ed in 1749, and the German and Ital-
ian banners are no older than existing
administrations of those countries.
The Spanish flag was first established
in 1855. On June IA, TIT, the con-
tinental congress passed its memorable
resolution that the flag of the United
States be thirteen stripes, alternate
red and white, and that the Union be
thirteen stars, white in a blue field,
representing a new constellation. 1t
was after decided to adopt star for
every new state admitted to the Union
but this is the only change that has
been made from the form adopted by
those men who were prominent in es-
tablishing the government.

smart Aleck; some pretty girls; more
loafers than it needs; woman or two

remarks about the women; man who
laughs an lido tic laugh every time he
says anything; scores of men with the

We have been checking up the
above and are inclined to believe that
the Northport News should have
made an exception of the town OF
Ritzville, as we must deny each and
every allegation contained therein,
save the third section, which is an
article we have plenty of. But as to
all else there is no foundation for
making such sweeping assertion.
We have the best lot Of people on the
great footstool right here in Adams
county with Ritzvillc the hub-center.
Every man woman and child too busy
with their own affairs to NEEDLE with
the business Of their neighbors. If
there is genuine idler and man
that don't pay his bills in town at
the present writing we are not aware
of it, and we ought to know for we
have knocked about the town for the
last fifteen years. We claim to have
the best little burg of its size in the
inland empire, and we are not joking
either.

A True Hero.
BY Paul ]. Flanagan.

ny Idui D.
His deeds have not lived in bright song or in
story,
No lineage long can be traced in his name,
But entwined on his brow is laurel of glory,
Unseen by the world, still tribute to fame.
He led not the hosts in the grim line of battle,
Where warriors fell with the bright blade in
hand
He heard not their shouts. or the muskctry's
rattle.
Nor mingled he aught with the rich OF the
grand.
But daily he labors, to brighten the life,
Ola woman grown grey with the burden Of
years;
Bringing smiles to her eyes, and shielding
from strife
The mother, who shares both his laughter
and tears.
Though his deeds are not heralded far DER the
land,
He is still the true hero, 40 gem OF renown,
Though worn by the statesman or warrior
grand,
Is as priceless as love, in a true hero's crown
Then place the bright jewels on this hero's brow
A gem for each deed that he manfully done
Fighting silent alone where no multitudes bow
Where no cheers rcnd the air at the victories
won.
But in fancy I see. in warm CHEEKY room.
mothers dear face, as IT beams on her boy
More priceless to him, than the glamour and
boom;

OF joy.

His Personal Appearance.

We are left entirely to conjecture as
to the personal appearance Of Jesus the
boy, and we have no means of knowing
how He looked as He wandered over
plain and by seashore, overturning the
world by His words. There is, however
a story descriptive OF Him as man
which comes from the fourteenth GEN.
fury. He was exceedingly fair to be-
hold. His stature was full seven spans.
His hair was light and not very thick,
slightly tending to curl. His eyebrows
were dark and arched. His eyes were
bright, with a dash of yellow. His
beard was blonde and not long. He
wore His. hair down his shoulders, for
it had never been cut. He stopped
slightly,very slightly, at the shoulders,
never walking wholly erect. His
complexion was of the color of ripe
wheat, golden hue, and His face was
not round nor yet long, but oval like
his mothers. and it had just tinge
Of ruddiness. AS one looked at him
he was strangely impressed by the in
telligence, the gentleness, the freedom
from all passions therein expressed.

Honor for Mckinley.

When every gate for peace had been
closed President Mckinley firmly set
his face for war. He has steadily re-
fused to permit the conflict to be
changed from a war for liberty and
humanity into war for revenge and
territorial seizure. He has been so
magnanimous as to win the applause
of our enemies and facilitate the COM
ing of peace. He has softened the as
perities Of competing ambitions, and
given harmony and unity to our army
and navy. And he has done II all with
the modest dignity that is the mark OF
native greatness. This will be his
tory's acknowledgment, as 1t Is that of
his gratcfulfellow countrymen. Chief
among the honors OF the new peaca
are his own, and the man and president
whose department has been sufficient
fer the trials of war, may safely be
trusted to meet, guide and command
the issues of peace.-Troy Times.

She went there and the woman she
met on the corner never heard OF such
IA street and had lived on the South
side ten years.
She made a grand detour, taking in
numerous streets in every direction,
and then it began to grow dark, and,
worn out with her afternoons quest,
she took car for her husbands office,
and when she told him what tom
fool chase she had been making, he
just shouted: "Why, don't you know
that so seconds make minute? They
live out on Sixty-second street,"
He insisted that he didn't mean to
annoy her. 1t was threadbare old
joke, and he supposed she knew what
lie meant all right.
But she assured her friend she didn't
believe him at all. She knew 1t was
just one of those miserable unfeeling
practical jokes, and she wouldn't
stand it,
Fortunately, the friend was wise
little woman who knew just how to
pour oil on the troubled waters. She
soothed the hysterical woman into a
condition of quiet. She humored her
in the idea that it was a mean joke.
"But you must forgive me, Helen" she
said, "if tell you you have made an
awful fool of yourself Even IL 1T was
all done purposely, as you say, you
should have told him it was mighty
cute little joke if it did involve two
hours of pedestrianism for you, and
then you ought to have accepted his
little excuse graciously. He would
have been so ashamed and sorry and
anxious to prove his regret that you
would doubtless have been surprised
by new sealskin sack, instead of
pouting around for week. BY the
way, Helen, think you were rather
stupid about that street. 1t seems
to me l would have had sneaking
suspicion that minute meant Sixty
second"
Every likely you would, Kate, but
you know You ATE clever"
"No. am not clever at all, but have
q whole lot of tact
"Yes, and n lot of wit"
"Never made witty remark in my
life, but I make opportunities for
other people to say smart things and
they appreciate it and give me credit
for getting them chance to shine"
"Yes, have seen you pretending to
be tremendously amused over some
nonsense that lad neither pith nor
point. l don't understand how you
could do it,"
"And l don't understand how under
similar circums;ancesyo would per-
nit yourself to look so thoroughly
bored and Disguised. am afraid,
Helen, you have reached a selfish peri
cd without the tact to secure the adj
miration you crave"
why, Kate, you were not always so
considerable. | remember when you
were pretty severe in your criticisms"
