came brothers ag'in, 1t was finally
settled that public contribution
should be taken up to buy SI5
flag, and then came the question of
where ii should be raised. Enos
Hopkins, who had started it all,
got up in a modest way and said he
would go to the expense of plantin'
a pole in front of his house. 1t
was on high ground, and the flag
could be seen from every house In
Jericho.
owe shouldn't put Enos to all
that trouble" said Deacon Spooncr
as he rose up, "He's done his
sheer in thinkin' out the plan. I'll
see that the flag is duly displayed
from the roof of my cooper shop
when it arrives"
whats the matter with h'istin'
it over my grocery ?" asked Dan
Skinner as he wiped the tears of
emotion from his eyes.
"Or with h'istin' it over my coal
yard ?" said Darius Waterman,
who calculated to chip in 10 cents
and no more.
Then everybody bobbed up and
demanded to be heard. Every man
present wanted that flag in front of
his house or place of business and
nowhere else, and purity soon they
was shakin' their fists and sayin'
they'd be burned if they wouldn't
have it there or refuse TO contribute
a red cent There was a lively
row on in two minits, with no more
weepin' over patriotism. As the
row grew hotter Abijah Dawson
turned to Joel Hardman and said
he was glad his dog had bit the ear
off that hog and that he'd like 20
serve Joel the same way. Deacon
Spooner ratified on the stovepipe
with his cane until he quoted the
racket, and then he said
"Feller patriots, but have we no
public speerit among us7"
1--WE have :" yelled the crowd.
"Thon let us exhibit. Bein' my
cooper shop is the highest buildin'
in town and bein' the American flag
has got to dip.hap in the breeze to
be seen and venerated, | unselfshly
offer to put up a pole and take
charge Of the flag"

the crowd.
Then Squar' Joslyn made a speech.
He told how a million men had died
for that flag how its stars and bars
had made tyrants tremble how a
young nation had worshiped it and
made all the world respect it. He
wound up after 10 minits by oferin'
TO float il from his boss barn, but
only Kisses and groans follered.
There were signs that three or four
patriots would soon be punchin'
each others head when Lish Billings
strolIed in in that careless way of
his. Deacon Spooner pounded
and ratified ill he got order and
then said
'I want to hear from Lish Billings
on this matter. Mebbe he can
suggest sunthin' Lisb, what place
in Jericho would you say the Amer.

THE JE RICHO
POSTOFFICE.
Zap Perkins, Postmaster, Tells About
the American Flag That Was Not
Raised.

Eft was Enos Hopkins who got
~ the idea that Jericho should
prove her patriotism to the
world at large by displayin' the
American flag for seven days a week.
He got the idea one Sunday mornin'
as he lay in bed, and he Rugged it to
his soul and ohuckled over it for a
week before he said anything to a
Twin soul. Everybody knew by
his actions that somethin' was up,
but they couldn't fgger out whether
he was plannin' to stamp Nc KinIey's
face on his milk cans or Bryan's on
his rolls of butter. At length, when
Saturday night came, and there was
the usual crowd at the postofficc,
he sprung his surprise.
He had his speech all prepared.
He told how the American flag was
first flung to the breeze-how men
cheered for liberty as they saw it
how it had given freedom TO a con-
tinent and brought happiness to
millions. Men had fought cheerin'
for that flag, and men had died
blcssin' it. He wanted it h'isted in
Jericho at sunrise every day in the
year, and he wanted children to cry
for it and men and women to veneer
ate it. Monday was wash day in
Jericho, and front yards and back
yards made beautiful shown OF
sheets and shirts and towels and
table cloths, but above them all
would flap and flop the flag which
had covered the heroes Of Bunker
Hill as they died in the cause of
liberty.
As soon as the crowd had recov-
cred from its surprise and begun to
cheer, Deacon Spooner said it was
a mighty strong pint and one
worthy of leadin' patdotot Jericho.
He was heartily in favor of the idea,
and be would then and there con-
tribute - cents toward the purchase
of public flag. He also thought a
vote of thanks was due Enos for his
cuieness in thinkin' out the idea. A
happin', hoppin' flag h'isted to the
balmy breezes of Jericho would give
the town worldwide fame and prob
ably result in a boom.
Then Hosea Saunders spoke.
His grandfather had died while
hghtin' under the Stars and Stripes.
His father had fallen and killed him
self while climbin' a flag pole. His
mother had wrapped him in the flag

If proof were needed that the life
OF a private in the United States
army under existing conditions is
not pleasant one, it is furnished
by the annual report of the Ad-
jutant General, just made public,
which shows that there were 3,oo2
desertions during the last fiscal
year. The large and respectable
element which oppose the "army
canteen" are given a slap in the
face by the report, which says that
the army canteen" has grown to
be an absolute necessity, and that
business of SL9I5,962, with
net profit of S464, 5o4, was done by

FIGHTING AT TAKU.
Further Light Thrown on It in Brit
ish Parliament.

London, June 1S-In the house of
commons today Mr.. Broderick, the par
liamentary secretary of the foreign
office amplifed the admiralty's news
from Chez Foo He said the japanese
warships reported that the Chinese
forts opened fire on the gunboats at
the mouth of the river yesterday at
1890 a. NJ, and that the ships then en-
gagged the forts, and that the engage
ment was proceeding when the Japan
csc ships left at $50 a. m yesterday.
Detachments from all the foreign
warships were landed Saturday to pro-
tect Taku.
There was one Chinese warship at
Taku which remained passive. Mr.
Broderick added that British, Russian,
japanese and French achievements
were due to arrive about Thursday.
Within the last hour, said Mr.. Brod-
crick in conclusion, he had heard that
the telegraph line from Taku to Tien
Tsin had been restored.
The fitting out of the Japanese bat
tIeship Asahi of 200 tons being fin
ished at Clyde Bank is being expedited,
and she is under orders to sail within a.
week.
The failure of the international forces
to reach Pekin has greatly intensified
the anxiety here as to the fate of the
Europeans huddled together in the le-
cations at the Chinese capital, and 1t

WHEN DOCTORS DISAGREE
What Becomes Of a Patient?

Doctors have their hobbies as well as
other people and in the treatment of
disease often carry them too far for the
patients good. For instance in the
treatment of indigestion or dyspepsia
many doctors give bismuth and nothing
else, others rely on pepsin to bring their
patients through, still another doctor
treats stomach troubles with the var
ious vegetable essences and fruit salts
Now one or the other of these excel
lent remedies becomes a hobby with the
doctor who has had most success with
the particular one in question, because
all of them are first class remedies for
indigestion and dyspepsia, but not one
OF them alone is so good as a combina-
ton of all of them, such as is found in
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets which con-
tains not only vegetable essences and
fruit salts, but also the freshest, purest
pepsin and bismuth, making altogether
a remedy unsurpassed for every form
of indigestion, sour stomach, nervous
dyspepsia, belching of gas, distress after
eating, sleeplessness, headaches, etc.
Stuart'S Dyspepsia Tablets is not a
secret patent nostrum, but you can see
for yourself what it is and knowing this,
its success as a dyspepsia cure is not sur
prising. All druggists recommend and
sell them at so cents.
