For a British Am erican FIap

From the brain of a Boston girl, by name
Miss Barbour has emanated a suggestion
FOR British-American flag emblematic of
the good feeling OF the times The design
consists of diagonal half of the Stars
and Stripes met by diagonal half of the
Union Jack, the partition crossing from
the upper left hand corner to the lower
right hand corner. If the English papers
are to be believed, the British are much
pleased by the suggested banner of alli-
ance. One of them goes so far as to re-
mark that Boston seems to regret the tea
1t once threw into the harbor, adding:
"All right. Brother Jonathan. we'll forget
it, too" The Boston girl has remained
true to her traditions in one respect. how
ever. The two flags are. sure enough
Joined together, and the space occupied
by each Is equal, but 1t is noticeable that
the Stars and Stripes are-where they al
ways are--on top.-New York Evening

MOTHERHOOD.
Mrs. Pinkham Declares No Woman
Need Despair.

There are many durable causes for
sterility in women. One Of the most
common is general debility, accom-
panied by a peculiar condition Of the
blood.
Write freely and fully to Mrs. Pink
ham. Her address is Lynn, Mass. She
will tell you, free of charge, the cause
of your trouble and what course to
take. Believe me, under right condi-
tions, you have fair chance to become
the joyful mother of children. MRS.

under the doctors care. We had no
children. I have had nearly every
doctor in Jersey City, and have been
to Belvin Hospital, but all to no avail.
I saw Mrs. Pinkham's advertisement
in the paper, and have used five bot
ties of her medicine. It has done more
for me than all the doctors I ever had
It has stopped my pains, and has
brought me fine little girl. I have
been well ever since my baby was born.
I heartily recommend Mrs. Pinkham's
medicine to all women suffering from

Church Built of Coral.

A church built of coral is one of the
curiosities of the Isle Of Maize. one OF
the Seychelles islands in the Indian
ocean. The Seychelles islands. which
are supposed by many to be the site OF
the Eden of Old Testament history,
form an archipelago Of one hundred
and fourteen islands, and are situated
about 1,4OO miles east of Alden and
/ 900 miles from Zanzibar. They rise
steeply out Of the sea, eliminating in
the Isle of Maize, which is about 5000
feet above the level of the ocean, and is
nearly the center of the group. Ali
these islands are of coral growth. The
houses are built Of species of massive
coral hewn into square blocks. which
glisten like white marble, and show
themselves to the utmost advantage in
the various tinted green Of the thick
tropical palms, whose immense fern
like leaves give pleasant and much-
needed shade. These palms grow as
high as 100 feet and more, overlapping
both the houses and the coral-built
church. They line the seashore and
cover the mountains, forming in many
places extensive forests.

Little Africa ! Man.

Little Africa, 1.-the, petite dancer,
sprang into popularity At Detroit few
weeks ago, and through shrewd man
ager, became drawing card at private
dinners given by the mice" young
men. Two weeks ago the Detroit light
guard gave smoker, and one OF the
attractions was the mysterious Little
Africa.
The Seeley dinner dance was repro
duced in all its interesting details.
The little ''wiggler" was recalled
again and again, and each time re-
sponded with q new movement.
Glasses clinked to her honor, she was
showered with bouquets AMI coins, and
every effort was made to discover her
identity. Since that two quiet" stag
parties have been given by Detroit
select young men, and Little Africa,
the clever little dancer, as nearly cos
tuned la Eve as was consistent with
proper entertainments, has been idol
lied.
Society was scandalized, and Little
Africa supplanted many sweetheart
in the affections Of some fast young
men. Her admirers have been search
ing the city to do her homage, and the
scandalized members have been
searching for her to make her trouble.
It has now been discovered that the
dancer was Frank Bruesser, we'll.
known costumer. who has been having
fun at the expense of his friends.
Bruesser's form has remarkable re-
semblance to that of a woman.

Bad Roads Arc Costliest.
When once the fact gets firmly estab-
lished in the minds Of the farmers of
the United States that it is more ex-
pensive to maintain bad roads than to
make and keep in condition good roads
they will take active interest in the
question and an era of road building
will begin which will add to their
wealth, prosperity and comfort, and
benefit the country at large as much
as has the laying Of railroad tracks and
the advance Of the steam locomotive.
Let those engaged in agriculture study
such figures as those recently issued by
the supervisor of New York, wherein he
shows that it costs half as much to
haul produce three miles by wagon as
it costs to haul it 500 miles on the rail-
road. The supervisor figures out that
with a system of good macadam roads
the farmers would save an amount
each year equal to the interest on from
$40 to $50 an acre, according to the
crop raised, and would increase the
value of their land either to sell or
hold by like amount.

ANIMALS AS MODELS.

Some of the Experiences OF an Artist In
sketching From Life.
Leaves from the Sketch Book of an
Animal Artist" is an article by Mere
dith Nugent in the St. Nicholas. Mr..
Nugent says: There was an elephant
in the in-des-Planets that would
not pose unless he were paid for it, and
paid in advance. Then he took pay
ment in buns and pie. but if these were
not forthcoming, he would deliberately
walk to the farther end of the enclosure
and turn his back. The only way to
get drawing of this big fellow was to
engage some one to feed him mean
while. In the same gardens l saw an
unusually interesting sight one morn
ing. A little sunbear with a large
marrow bone in his shaggy paws was
resorting to all sorts of bear devices to
get the sweet marrow. Suddenly he
lay down on his back, placed one end
of the bone in his jaws, and with his
hind paws tipped the other end of the
bone SO high up that the choice morsel
slipped into his mouth. If the animal
could only have understood the shouts
of approval that greeted this perform
ance, think it would have turned his
head. In one of the sketches you will
see how this feat was accomplished. As
a rule I find the models very good ma
tured. True, they keep sharp eye on
me for the first few days, but after
that are generally quite friendly. OF
course, there are some parts OF the
business they do not like. The oriole
never was happy when held him in
my hand for close inspection, but a
beautiful cat which rebelled when /
first placed her in bird cage-to keep
her in front of me-grew SO fond OF
being there, and after finished my
drawings she cried and cried to be put
back into the cage. Intense curiosity
is the great Characteristic of animals
when in the studio. They are as much
interested in you and the surroundings
as you are in them. This is especially
the case with birds. Leave the studio
but few minutes, and these two
legged fellows are hopping into every
thing. OF course they inspect the
paper on which you have been draw
ing, and the paints, and the brushes,
and occasionally vary these proceedings
by taking bath in the water bowl.

The Insult to the United States:

London, April 19.-The Malaga cor
respondent of the Daily Mail says:
About 10 O'Clock last evening a large
group of young people, who had al
ready met in another part of the town
for the purpose Of organizing demon
stration, arrived in front of the Ameri-
can consulate, and began to cheer for
Spain. They did not at this time ut
ter any cry against the United States.
The chief of police endeavored to dis
perse them, but only succeeded in driv.
ing the crowd from the front of the
consulate. The demonstration then
paraded along the Gale de Larses, the
most frequented street in Malaga, and,
accompanied by very large crowd, re-
assem- bled in the Plaza de la Constitu-
cion.
The civil governor and mayor has
tened to the spot to calm the people,
and were received with wild cheering,
put in the meantime another group
posted themselves opposite the Ameri-
can consulate. They carried a Span
ish banner, and after uttering many
patriotic cries. began to throw stones
/ at the building. All the windows
were smashed, and a part OF the furni-
ture of the consulate seriously dam
aged.
When the crowd was as the height
of its frenzy. ladder was brought and
man, getting hold Of the American
escutcheon, threw it to the ground,
amid immense cheering. The escut-
cheon was then paraded as trophy
through the streets, and was ulti.
mately carried to the crowded Plaza
de Constitution, where its appearances
created great enthusiasm.
Another group, headed by . we'll
known Carlist, went through the prin-
cipal street and passed the consulate
shouting "vivas" to Spain. to the army
and crying necessarily, Death to the
