Our Flag,

A Spaniard through the city's streets Was strolling slowly up and down; And stopping me as l passed by,
 He asked me with frown: 'What mean the eolors of yon flag? That waves so proud on high, What mean the red. the white, the blue; The stars of midnight sky? "Why are those stars so gaily set? Upon field of blue; Why are those stripes of red and white So dearly loved by you?" With smile I turned and answered.: That flag so fair to see Is an emblem of sweet freedom
 And foe to tyranny. e.. ue red is the blood by heroes shed
 In ages long gone by, When freedom burst from tyrant's chains And set her flag on high ''The white that in our banenr gleams Is the color of God above And teaches us our hearts to keep
 Pure and free for the flag we love. 'gro our country's flag and honor Forever more be true; To keep them free from insults stains Is the emblem of the blue.'

CIRCULAR LETTER TO BREWERS,

CIRCULAR LETTER TO BREWERS. Issued by Treasury Department Con-
 corning Possible Increase on Beer
 Tax
 Collector Lake has received from the treasury department at Washington a circular letter warning brewers that it is the intention to increase the tax on beer in case of war and cautioning them that it will be of no avail to buy up large quantities of stamps at the present price in order to escape pay ing the increased tax, as was done last year when the beer tax was increased about 1-2 per cent. The letter is as follows:
 In view of the prospective increase in the rate of internal revenue tax on beer, brewers may endeavor to pur- chase quantities of beer stamps foI future use and largely in excess of their present needs. You are, there fore instructed to advise all brewers when purchasing beer stamps that the stamps now in use will not be available for the payment of tax on beer after the passage of an act increasing the rate of taxation thereon. Immediately after the approval of such an act the new rate of taxation will attach tc and become available on all beer not actually sold or removed from the brewery premises for consumption o1 sale. Such excessive purchases o1 stamps, if made, will not only greatly increase the work in this office and yours in the redemption of stamps, but will deprive brewers of the use of the money invested therein until suct stamps can be redeemed.

How Are You Supplying Your Table With
 Water :?

We assume that you are using something
 besides the ordinary city or town water supply, as 1t Is now generally recognized that water as it comes direct from the mains is too impure for drinking. Are you
 using spring water? If so, would you not
 be glad to reduce your water bill to a small fraction of what it now Is, and save the annoyance of handling bottles or carboys, obtaining at the same time equally good Gin fact frequently better) water? If you are using some system of filtra- tion, are you satisfied with its results? Do you get an ample supply of water? Is it always white and pure, and does your filter work well 4.-4L THE TIME? If not, will you permit us to show you
 how those results can be reached, by talk ing with you further, or by having our agent call on you?

dressed by Secretary Long to the Presi-

1 cannot. though absent from the depart

through you to your associates on the
board-Commodore. Crowningshield and
Capt Mehan (retired)-the very high ap-
probation which the department has of
the services 1t has rendered since the war
began. That its members have been faith
ful and dligent in the highest measure
goes without saying, for they are animated
by the high professional spirit which dis
tinguishes the navy, and which they have
themselves done much to stimulate and
maintain But from my personal knowl-
edge and observation, I desire TO add to
this that equally marked have been the
Intelligence, The wise judgment the COM
prehensive forethought and the unfailing
competency to meet every exigency which
have distinguished their deliberations and
actions.
May it'be said that not one error has
been made? Proper control by the depart
ment has been exercised over all move
ments i'm the field aud yet at the same
time. commanding officers have been duly
LETT to exercise discretion and have never
been hampered in their work l do not
know how your work, as member OF that
important board could have been better
done or where I'm the arena of the war
you could have rendered better service or
deserved more honor. Very truly yours,
John D. Long, Secretary Of Navy"
