The term "0ld Glory" is a puzzle 70
E,oanv persons, who can not understand
nov the flag Of the youngest member Of
he family of great nations can claim such
rezpec.sble antiquity. Col. Samuel Har-
'den Church. an authority on all subjects
hearing on historical research, in a recent
address said: "Our standard is twenty
tbr ,e years older than the present flag OF
Great Britain, seventeen years older than
tbe French tri-color. nearly hundred
vesrs older than the present flag Of Ger
nanv or Italy, and eight years older than
The flag Of Spain"

one Of the funny incidents at the ex-
sminations for recruits for Company d,
says the Conneilsville News. Vas the case
of tall. angular man who sported a
nobby set OF false teeth. The prospective
Philippine campaigner passed the exsmi-
nation in splendid shape and was just
abo II to leave the recruiting Office in the
Smith house after having his name placed
on the roll as accepted when the examin-
ing surgeon said: "Oh, just wait min
ute. How are your teeth?'' You have
me there" said the tail, angular man, as
be jerked the set Of mOlars from between |
his Jaws aud held them up to the view of
the recruiting officers. His name was
scratchei of the list.
In the tropics the clothing worn is Of
very light material. usually light duck or
linen, says a correspondent of the New |
York Tribune, and knocking about on
decSs OF the boats these suits soon be- !
come torn aud badly soiled. On the
chase after Sehiey's fleet, when he went
u Santiago, one very fastidious CORES
p5aaen; had the bad fortune TO have all !
his clothing washed overheard except
The suit he was wearing. The trousers Of |
this suit had become badly soiled and he
determined 10 wash them. Not knowing
the techuicalities Of the laundry. he gave
them a thorough soaking. and. tying
lhem 10 strong cord. threw them over
lhe stem OF the boat, hoping that during
ihe night old ocean would finish TIE
Nasning- The next morning when the
trousers we e hauled in to dry they were
torn To shreds The sharks had been
niooilng At them. The young man went
in'o pori Al Cape Hayden two days later
wearing summer underwear instead Of
~hi'e duck. Hewas hero with natives
lhey mistook his undergarments for
