The wonders Of surgery will, il seems,

Figaro, that out of ten 'Americaines'
residing in Paris there is but one Amer

over there-absorbs tho sterner sex in
the United States. In that country the
men have neither the inclination nor
the opportunity for much leisure, and
only pay us very short visits.
"While their wives install themselves
here the good husband only makes fly

to in the elegant salons of the wives. y
The writer continues: Il was at an
official ball not long ago, where one of
them was the hero of a curious his

a brilliant star, which struck me as
original and somewhat curious in form.

CONTROLLING THE PRICE OF
WHEAT.

Events during the past few month in
the Chicago wheat pit have shown how
powerful one man car be. Throughout
the whole of civilization the increase
in the price Of bread has been felt.
This power OF a single man, however,
is not so great as that Of a single medi-
cine in relieving and curing many
diseases. This is Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, and it's influence for good ex-
tends to all lands. When the mouth
tastes badly in the morning, when the
appetite is lost, when dizzy spells come
on, when you are easily tired and have
no desire to work, take a wineglass of
the Bitters before meals and you will
feel like a different person. This one
medicine controls the health of every
body.

ABOUT FLAGS

A nations flag represents its SOW
ereignitY and is prominently dis
played in all army aud navy battles.
ITO strike the aag" is to lower
the national colors in token of sub
mission to the opposing forces.
Dipping the flag is lowering it
slightly and then hosting it again,
to salute either a vessel or fort.
A flag OF truce is a white display
to the enemy to indicate a desire
for parley or consultation.
The black flag is a sign of piracy.
The yellow flag shows a vessel to be
in quarantine or is the sign of a
contagious disease,
A flag at half mast means mourn
ing. Vessels come into harbor
with flag at half-mast to an
nounce the loss or death of some of
the crew.
Flags are used as the symbol OF
rank and command, the officers
using them being called flag officers.
Such flags are square, to distingu-
ish them from other banners.
The red flag is a sign of defiance
and is often used by revOlutionists.
In the American service it is
mark of danger and shows a vessel
to be receiving or discharging her
powder
The white flag with a red cross
is sign of peace. After a battle
parties from both sides often go
out to the fields to rescue the.
wounded or bury the dead under
the protection of such flag.

Give The m Their Share.

Editor National Tribune: AS one of the
old "COfee-cOolers" left over from 'C5 am
not a little amused at the fattery heape5
upon the Rough Riders. While we people of
the Territory feel proud that we are able to
furnish thousands Just as brave as our
original Rough Riders, it looks as though
the iiattery and praise is little overdonc
in their behalf
! believe in fair play, and while all
Oklahoma Territory is proud of our Rough
Riders, would it not look better If some of
our Regular boys got a share of the honors
so freely bestowed upon one volunteer or
ganization. They all did their duty and
as my experience goes, no one section of
the United States has Drawer men than
any other. We are all fighters, from Maine
to California.
l am also little diverted at the way
many papers discuss the losses. While
we lost In battle something like 400 men
all told, in licking Spain, it is but a drop
in the bucket compared with our battles
during the civil war. The first was ever
engaged IN, while was a beardIess boy
was Shiloh, Tenn, in April, 1862. There
was more men killed and wounded in that
battle than Gen. Shafter had in his entire
army.
! have seen more men killed in one
hour than there is in RoOsevelt's en1ire
Rough Rider Regiment, and the last fight
was ever in, December, 1864, our regi-
ment lost as many as the Rough Riders
did, and we did not have more than 250
engaged. There was not even q report
made of the scrap although we cap
tured one stand OF colors, two pieces ot
artillery, and 290 prisoners. g.
While | like to see the people applaud
the achievements of our boys, it is not
right that one set of men should get nearly
all the praise, and our Regulars both
white and colOred-5e to a certain extent
ignored. They are the boys who made il
possible for US to take Santiago.

waves; and while we thus enjoyed a
Salutary bath we amused ourselves in
collecting off the rocks a quantity of shell

hearty meal we had eaten since we started
from home.
Having thus satisfied our hunger, our
thoughts were directed to taking rest, OF
which we stood in great need; but il was
