dent, and the virtual founder of a
powerful state. But the connection Of
General Washington with Sulgrave
manor is exceedingly remote. His
family parted with it half dozen gen.
eFations before he was born, and it is
quite possible that he never even heard
of the place. Nor is Sulgrave in any
sense a stately home" 1t is ga

chief, three mullets of the second"
Here We certainly seem to have the or
igin of the stars and stripes of the Uni
ted States flag. Washington is known
to have worn these arms upon his sig
net ring, although it has been contend
ed by purists in armory that he was
not personally entitled to use them.
The shields were probably placed in
the Sulgrave porch by Laurence Wash
ington, lord of the manor, who was
twice mayor of Northampton in the
time of Henry VIII, from whom he has
received a grant of lands which had be-
longed to the priory of Canons Ashhy.

Althorp Laurence Washington, the
grandson of the lord of Sulgrave, is
buried in Great Brington church, with

The family was very prolific-Lau-

from his living during the common
wealth. The pedigree of this family Of
old English yeomen was long crux to
genealogists. and it was not until that
remarkable searcher of records, the late

His mercy endureth forever" If it
didn't where should we be? 1t behooves
us to take a day off in remembrance
and celebration Of the fact that We are
favored. And though we shall of
course devote most of the day to eating,
drinking and playing there will be time
and room for a sober thought or two.
We can think of our country's prosper
ity and expansion. We can think of
the high tariff, from which all blessings
flow. We can think of Wall street, to-
ward which all money flows. We can
think of the coal strike and it's conse-
quences. We can think of Capital and
Labor" We can think Of politics and
of Apostle Reed Shoots senatorial as
pirations. We can think of the rich and
the poor. We can think of the football
heroes and of the obscure and humble
ones who are trying to keep learning's
torch alight. We can think of 1.-The decay
of religion" the increase in libraries,
burglaries, etc., etc. We can also think
ofour mercies which, though perhaps not
all we merit or want are enough to give
us cause for thankfulness. Let us there
fore to-day think sober thought or
two, and give thanks unto the Lord,
for he is good; for his mercy endureth
forever"

PECULIAR.

That the heatf en- Chinee is peculiar
has long been Known. And he will
stay peculiar until he ceases to be
heather and becomes like one of US
Christians. How peculiar he is in one
way has Just been pointed out by WI
Ting Fang, who has been minister from
China in this country, and Is now on
his way home to take a high office in
China. He was received in San
Francisco by several hundred business
men representing all the commercial
bodies of the city, and Of course he
had to make a speech. And this is the
way he talked about one of the pecu-
liarities of the heather Chinee: In
dealing with my countrymen want to
warn you. gentlemen, that you must
not adhere to the hard and fast ties
in vogue over here. When we Chinese
make promise, want you to under
stand that our word is just as good as
another's bond. Therefore, I beg to
suggest that when a merchant in China
gives you an order you accept his word.
He will always keep it.
The United States is away ahead of
China in civilization and therefore bust
ness can't safely be done here on YER
bal promises. Let us keep on civilizing
China until her business men can do
business in a business way.

employment under Uncle Sam last year
by taking the civil service examination.
Two-thirds Of those who submitted to
the test proved their fitness to hold po-

ments. These facts appear in the an

those who passed number 4O,509, and 49,

Smallpox Cures

1) The following remedy for this
loathsome disease is very simple, and
on the authority of surgeon of the
British army of China it is said to be =
thorough cure, even in extreme cases:
When the preceding fever is at its
height, and just before the eruption
appears, the chest is rubbed with croton
oil and tartaris ointment. This causes
the whole eruption to appear OH that
part of the body, to the relief of the
rest. 1t also secures full and complete
eruption and thus prevents the disease
from attacking the internal organs.
(2) The following will not only cure
smallpox, but also scarle. feaver. 1t is
harmless when taken by a person in
health: Sulphate Of zinc, one. grain
foxglove (digitalis), one grain; half a
teaspoonful of sugar; mix with two ia
blespoonfuls of water When thorough
ly mixed add four ounces of waters
Take spoonful every hour. Either
disease will disappear in twelve hours.
For child, smaller doses, according to
age. If countries. would compel their
physicians to use this there would be
no need of a pesthouse.
(3) II am willing to risk my reputa-
as public man." wrote Edward Hine
to the Liverpool Mercury, "if the
worst case of smallpox cannot be cured
in three days simply by the use of
cream of tartar. One. ounce of cream
of tartar dissolved in pint Of water,
drank at. intervals when cold, is a GER
tain, never falling remedy. 1t has cur
ed thousands, never leaves a marx,
never causes blindness, and avoids t.
