BITS OF FLAG LORE.

The simple stripping Of the red and
yellow in the flag of Spain was suggested
by the arms of Aragan.
The strangest flag under which man
ever fought is that of the Macedonian
insurgents. It Is red on one side and
black on the other.
The crescent, moon and stars were
adopted by the Turks as their device on
the capture Of Constantinople by Mo-
manned II. in 1853.
The white cross on the red field of the
Swiss flag has q religious meaning. 1t
was adopted as an appeal to heaven in
1889, when the stout Swiss fought and
won one of their greatest battles.
Peter the Great, it is said, borrowed
the idea of the Russian flag from the
Dutch, among whom he learned ship
building. He simply turned the Dutch
~tricolor, red, white and blue, upside
down.

an account Of some cures effected by
DR.. Williams Pink Pills. The state

how felt assured that these pills would
help me. Most people, I think, buy only
one box for a trial, but I purchased six
boxes at once, and when I had used
them up, I was indeed well and had no
need Of more medicine.
CDR. Williams Pink Pills enriched my
thin blood, gave me back my sleep, re-
stored my appetite, gave me strength to
walk long distances without fatigue, in
fact freed me from all my numerous all

late Nelson Dingley, Of Maine, passed
away, shortly after the enactment OF
the tariff law that bears his name, Mr..
Payne has been chairman, OF the ways
and means committee, a position which
carries with it the floor leadership OF
the majority in the house. Nh. Payne
is a. distinguished looking old gentle
man of rotund proportions, large head,
rubicund countenance and snow-white
hair and mustach. Up until two years
ago he wore a full beard, he then made
himself almost unrocognizable to old
friends by shaving it off and appearing
with only a mustach.
The late Speaker Reed used to refer
to Mr.. Payne as the "White-headed
Mandarin" The parliamentary car,
however, could always depend upon the
gentleman from New York to carry out
the programme of the committee on

and a perpetual smile and the opposi-

sition more sentimental than practical.
He has encountered great difficulty in
having the confederate flags identified
SO that they can be returned to the
states and the old confederate organi-
cations to whom they belonged in war
The flag room in the war department
is filed with these trophies and it
seems impossible to identify all OF
them SO that they can reach their for
mer owners. In discussing his embar-
rassment, Gen. Ainsworth said:
II am doing everything possible to
find at least the states from which
these unidentified flags came. Each
flag is being carefully examined, but it
now seems clear that a majority of the
captured flags will go unclaimed I'M
less some means of Identifying them,
not now known, should present itself.
OF course, unless a flag is identified in
some way it cannot be returned and
will have to remain stored in its pres
ent Tlace in the flag room of the war
department"
Gen. Ainsworth was asked IL there
would be any particular ceremony in
connection with the return Of the bat
tie flags SO dear to the hearts of old
confederates. There have been sug-
gestions that the return might be made
at some sort of reunion or with some
formality that would be impressive, but
Gen. Ainsworth said:
There will be no ceremony at the
war department in connection with the
return of the identified confederate
flags. All that we are doing is writing
letters to the governors of the various
states having flags here, notifying them
that, in accordance with the provisions
of a joint resolution of congress, their
flags are returned"

Bordering on the miraculous is the case
of Mrs. Benz. Wilson, of this place. Suf,
fering from Sugar Diabetes, she wasted
away till from weighing 200 lbs. she
barely tipped the scales at 100 lbs.
Dodd's Kidney Pills cured her. Speaking
of her cure her husband says
my wife suffered everything from
Sugar Diabetes. She was sick four years
and doctored with two doctors, but re-
ceived no benefit. She had so much pain
all over her that she could not rest day
OF night. The doctors said that she could
not live.
"Then an advertisement led me to try
Dodd's Kidney Pills, and they helped her
right from the first. Five boxes of them
cured her. Dodd's Kidney Pills were a
God-sent remedy to us, and we recon-
mend them to all suffering from Kidney
Disease"
Dodd's Kidney Pills cure all Kidney
Diseases, including Bright's Disease, and
all Kidney aches, including Rheumatism.
