When and how the national flag
should be displayed at full staff, is
plainly set forth in circular issued by
/ the Sons Of the Revolution. These are
the dates and the directions:
Lincoln's birthday, Feb. II.
Washington's birthday, Feb. o.
Battle Of Lexington, April 10.
Memorial Day, May 30. On Memorial
Day, the flag should fly at half-staff
from sunrise to noon, and full staff
from noon to sunset.
Flag Day, June IA.
Battle of Bunker Hill, June IT.
Independence Day, July A.
Battle Of Saratoga, Oct. II.
Surrender at Yorktown, Oct. 10.
Evacuation Day, Nov. rs.
The flag should not be holsted before
sunrise nor allowed to remain up after
sunset.
at retreat, sunset, civilian spectators
should stand at attention and uncover
during the playing OF "The Star Span
gled Banner" Military spectators are
required by regulation to stand at at
tention and give the military salute.
During the playing of the hymn at re-
treat the flag should be lowered, but
not then allowed to touch the ground.
When the National colors are pass
ing on parade or in review, the spec
tators should, If walking, halt, and II
sitting, arise and stand at attention
and uncover.
When the National and State OF
other flags fly together, the national
flag should be placed on the right.
When the flag is flown at half-stafi
as a sign Of mourning, 1t should be
hoisted to full-staff at the conclusion
of the funeral.
In placing the flag at half-staff, II
should first be hoisted to the top of the
staff and then lowered to position, and
preliminary to lowering from half-staf1
1t should first be raised to the top.
The National salute Is one gun FOR
every State. The international salute
is, under the Law of Nations, twenty,
one guns

As 1t Is undoubtedly true that one
mans meat may be another mans poi
son, SO it happens sometimes that what
seems like work to one person is re-
garded as recreation by another.
"Had good lecture on Alasky, didn't

a chance to get in word for two NOR

A Duty ON Heiressesl

Paul Morton declares that he was
not joking when, at gathering of In
surance men In Philadelphia, he advo-
Gated tax upon the incomes which
American heiresses so often take out of
this country by their marriage to for
tune-hunting members of the European
nobility. There Is something in his ar
gument, certainly. Why, when we pro-
tect American industry from the COM
petition of cheap foreign labor should
we allow the rewards of that Industry
to be turned over In bulk (and with
the accompaniment Of pretty Amer
lean glrD to an alien who never did
days work or served any useful pur-
pose In the worlds economy Why not
impose an export duty on heiresses +?
1t seems equitable-which Is doubtless
one of Mr.. Morton's reasons for pro-
posing it.

EUROPEAN MIGRATION.
Huge Annual Increase Since 1850
Chiefly from the south and East.

Huge Annual Increase Since 1850,
Chiefly from the south and East.
Between the years 1860 and 1880
from 100000 to $4,000 people, tired Of
Europe, looked for better conditions
and new home on the other side Of
the Atlantic every year, says the New
York Sun.
Since 1900, according to the statistics
Of the European ports, about 1900 1000
persons have left their native lands to
settle beyond sea every year.
The greater part of these emigrants
have adopted the United States as their
country. Several nations, In which
twenty-five years ago there was only
slight tendency to emigration. now
show q considerable annual loss by de-
partures for other lands. This Is par
ticularly true of Italy, Austria-Hun-
gary, Russia, Spain and Portugal. In
the years between 1870 and 1880 some
10000 Italians, 5000 Russians and 1900
Austrians or Hungarians emlgrated ey-
cry year. To-day about 10000 Aus
trians and Hungarians emigrate to
America, 10000 Russians and $4,000
Italians. These figures are taken from
European sources, and certainly In the
case of Italy they are too low.
Spanish emigration has also In
creased considerably since 1880, and
amounts to-day to $4,000 year. Little
Portugal sends out from 10000 to 25,-
900 of her people annually.
The English and Scandinavian emil
grafton has changed very little in the
last ten years German emigration has
heavily declined Between 1870 and
1890 the number Of German emlgrants
each year exceeded 100000 (maximum
Of 221, 600 in 1881, but since 1893 the
number has fallen off very much, and
to-day only about 25,O00 Germans an
nually leave their native land. The
present commercial development Of
Germany, no doubt, explains the
change. In Switzerland the conditions
are similar. In 1888 the annual emil
grafton amounted to 1880; to-day II
! 10 only 5000 or 5000.

EATING OF FRUIT.

Said to Give Complete Immunity
from Rheumatic Attacks.
'SThe vegetarian Is sort of sandbag
for the wits and artists, but after all
that can be said against him he has
a good deal in his favor, and among
other things to recommend his diet,
there Is an almost complete immunity
from rheumatism. A great many med
ical authorities take the ground that
rheumatism is peculiarly the disease of
the flesh eater, and the theory Is
strengthened by the fact that the fur
ther you go south the less rheumatism
you find, until when you get into the
tropics, where vegetable food is the
rule and people eat very little flesh of
any description, there Is hardly any
rheumatism to be found at ALL"
So says a st. Louis vegetarian, who
Is fond of telling how great are the
advantages of vegetable over animal
diet.
at may be that the climate of high
latitudes has something to do with the
rheumatic pains endured by the people
who liEe there, but 1t is nevertheless a
fact that the vegetarian of st. Louis
has no rhAawatism in his joints, any
more thai De vegetarian of New Or
leans, whiIe the meat enters in both
cities furnish the physician not only
with rheumatic cases, but also with
gout and a variety of other distempers
caused by oyerfeeding. The idea that
a flesh diet is necessary for an athlete
| is a great mistake. The contestants
for prizes at the old Olympic games
| trained on a diet of wheat, figs, dates
and other fruits. One of the strongest
men In this city Is rigid vegetarian
He never tastes meat, and yet, In spite
of the fact that he lives on bread
1 grains and fruit, he can start out any
day and walk twenty miles without al
ache or pain, while, after such spell
Of exercise as that, meat eater would
be rubbing his rheumatic joints for 1
week"

The phrase, "a complete f1asco," orig
mated with a German workman, who
declared that he could blow glass as
well as an expert glass worker.
A friend laid a wager with him to the
contrary, and when the test came of
the would be glass blower found that
he coold produce only pear shaped
flask (fiasco). Nothing daunted, he
tried again, but with the same result.
The story of the workman became
known and hence the origin Of the
phrase which is used in designating a
failure.

ItHurrah.O

The history Of many a race may be
read In its battle cry. The "Banzai ~
of the japanese, the "Faghaghballah r
of the Irish, and our own "Hurrah -
have found their origin far back In
history.
Although many authorities have de
clared that the word "hurrah" is de.
velopment of the Jewish "Hosannah,'
the consensus of opinion now Is that II
Is corruption Of the ancient battle
cry of the wild Norsemen, "Tur ale =
meaning, "Thor aid us" Formerly the
word was spelled "Huzza" and pro
nounced "Hurray" In one form ol
another 1t Is used by almost every
nation.

his books one day, comparing his list
of patients. 81 had great many more

"Your American fats are very con-
venient," said William T. Stead, the

| Adlai e. Stevenson, formerly Vice
President Of the United States, Is fond
Of telling an odd experience he had
shortly after the Civil War. At that
time David Davis was much talked of
as the man to run against General
Grant for the presidency. A conference
was held in Mr.. Stevenson's residence,
many leading Illinois and other Demo-
Gratis being present. A good deal was
said about the possible candidacy of Mr..
Davis, but no one happened to mention
his first name. After the conference
broke up Mr.. Stevenson drew an old
farmer friend into corner and asked
his opinion. The farmer was from the
extreme southern end of Illinois. He
said: well, you know, Adlai, I've fol-
lowed your lead in politics for a good
while and I'm going to do 1t now. But,
honest, Adlai, don't you think it's a
leetle mite early to nominate JEFF

Daniel Meyer, the prominent San
Francisco banker, tells the following
story Of himself: "Some years ago I
wanted to buy lot to build home
on. was taken in hand by one of our
younger real estate men, who showed
me some very fine lots. Most of his
prices, however, were outrageously
high. On our fourth excursion be took
me to the corner Of Webster and Broad
way and pointed out small, steep lot,
for which he asked staggering figure.
By way Of apology he said: or course,
you realize, Mr.. Meyer, that lots with
such fine marine view as this cannot
be had for nothing l am somewhat
nearslghted, and after adjusting my
glasses several times / found that my
sight would not take me farther than
the gas works, of which there seemed
to be several hundred. l said: MY
boy, you have done an inestimable ser.
vice to science. You have demonstrated
the theory that nearsightedness is the
greatest money-saver in the world"
