The Proper Salute to the
Greatest of All
the Flags

many have laid down their lives tc
save"
One day there came a letter to me.
all to my own little self, from my fa
ther, written on the battlefield Of
Shiloh. The envelope had a little flag
in the left corner and had a narrow
border in blue and red around it. Sta
war days. He had been wounded
slightly in the shoulder and must go
to the hospital. He wanted to write
to his darling child" himself, so that
if his name appeared among the
wounded or killed in the daily papers
| might know the truth. While he
wrote large smooth chip of wood
served for his writing desk and his
back was braced against the huge for
est tree from which the chip had been
cut by some woodsman when the bat
tie began. This friendly tree protected
him as he wrote from the bullets
which were still flying, although the
tide of battle had turned in favor of
the union.
My father did not write how he had
received the wound, but learned aft
erward During the fight-indeed, at
the crsis-a standard bearer was shot
through the head and he fell to the
ground, bearing down the flag with
the staff broken in twain. My father
standing near, saw it fall, and rushing
TO the spot raised the flag and carried
IL
could reach onward to the thickest of
the fight. The regiment rallied and
followed with all speed, and, alas!
was cut to pieces.
My fathers cap was shot from his
head and he was wounded in the shoul-
der, but his act. l have been told,
helped to save the day.
That impressed me greatly-the fact
that my father had risked his life to
keep that flag aloft Surely | thought
in my childish brain, as | tried to
reason it all out, it must be something
very, very great, and it would be a
very, very wicked little girl or boy
who could ever see that noble banner
and fail to salute it.
At that time it was not customary,
and few ever did it. Now it is gener-
ally observed; the only question
raised is, What particular way is the
best? | have seen many different
forms of salute, and have read of many
others, but to my mind there is none
sweeter nor quaintSr than the one
employed by noble old lady and a
little child, bowing low from the
waist, with the right hand just raised
to the forehead, then brought down
to the right side in grateful and loving
salute to the s-eatest 8f all flags

Only sure Cure for Tuberculosis.

In view of the constant agitation
and misrepresentation with regard to
the treatment of consumption the
National Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis has issued
a statement in which it states that the
only sure cure for this disease is fresh
air, rest and wholesome food. Hardly
a week passes without some quack
doc or" or eminent specialist" in
form ng the public that he has at last
discovered the sure cure for tubercu-
losis. After examining every one of
these so-called cures several hundred
in. number, the National association
states that, one and all, they are mis-
representations or fakes.

The Tyrrany of Yesterday,

There are some people over whom
yesterday tyrannizes That is to say,
they shrink from doing to-day any
thing that differs in the least from
what they did "a hours ago Emerson
has called consistency, under some
circumstances, the hobgoblin of lit
tie minds" and Walter Bagehot has
said there are many persons TO whom
1t is positive pain to entertain new
idea. This slavish defense to yester-
day robs us of many a fine inspira-
ton, and many a splendid opportunity.
Letting 1 dare not wait upon I
would we cover and falter and
shrink upon the verge of great ex-
ploits and achievements merely be-
cause these would involve strange and
unfamiliar experiences OF death it.
self we are afraid, not because death
is painful but because it is different
or seems to us different from what we
have been doing all along.

LIGHT BOOZE
Do You Drink 1t?

A minister's wife had quite tussle
with coffee and her experience is in
teresting. She says:
During the two years OF my train
ing as nurse, while on night duty,
became addicted to coffee drinking. Be-
tween midnight and four in the morn
ing, when the patients were asleep,
there was little to do except make the
rounds, and it was quite natural that
| should want a good, hot cup of cof-
fee about that time. 1t stimulated me
and l could keep awake better.
after three or four years of coffee
drinking ! became a nervous wreck
and thought that l simply could not
live without my coffee. All this time
l was subject TO frequent bilious at
tacks, sometimes so severe as to keep
me in bed for several days.
After being married. Husband
begged me to leave off coffee for he
feared that it had already hurt me
almost beyond repair, so l resolved to
make an effort to release myself from
the hurtful habit.
Il began taking Postum, and for
few days felt the languid, tired feeling
from the lack of the stimulant, but
liked the taste of Postum and that
answered for the breakfast beverage
all right.
Finally l began to feel clearer head
ed and had steadier nerves. After a
years use of Postum l now feel like
new woman-have not had any bilious
attacks since | left off coffee"

Grow Too Old for Parades.

AS a day celebrated only by vet
Grams of the union army, Memorial
day is rapidly slipping into the past.
The veterans are growing too old for
the parades which, until within few
years, were it's most conspicuous fea-
lure. In the south, where Decoration
lay was formerly observed on diff
serent dates in different states, the
.ustom has grown of celebrating May
80, which until recently was an exclu-
;ive anniversary of the Grand Army

Who Said Them d?

The golden text was Suffer the lit

had been recited to the class by
cherub on the front bench. Later in
the afternoon the teacher, in the
course of the lessons, had occasion to
refer to the text.
Now, children" she said, "who said
those words?" and she repeated them.

boys on the back bench, and receiving
permission to answer, he said, pointing
to the cherub: That little feller down

Memorial
Day
+*::::*:s* **..**...::.s .s.*:S**:..
<IR WALTER BEsANT

sFzpe, perior significance, inter
est and character of our
-.zxy,,,f N national holidays. An
ga Englishwoman last year
discovered the beauty of our Memorial
day. She was a guest in an old New
England town, and missed nothing,
either of preparation or observance.
She helped gather flowers for the
children, who came begging them all
day, and listened to their condolences:
my grandfather, he was soldier.
There's flowers and a flag on his
grave, anyway. but we bring flowers,
too" This basketful's going to the
ladies of the post; they're making up
bouquets at the hall" Nom, these
amt for the soldiers; they're for our
baby. I've got enough to most cover
the mound, it's so little" MY, them
laylocks'll look fine on teachers desk!
Yes'm, we decorate for the exercises,
and take 'em up to the cemetery aft
erward."
On Memorial day she attended the
exercises; saw the rows of young
faces turned attentively toward the
fine old man in faded uniform, who
spoke we'll and simply of the duties
of citizen in war and peace; heard
the children sing; saw them salute
the flag.
Then came the procession-the old
soldiers, most in carriages, sturdy
few OH foot; the town officials; the
militiamen; the boys brigade; the
fire company With the crowd she
followed to the ancient burying-
ground.
She saw blossoms and little waving
flags placed where lay men who had
served in the Spanish war, the civil
war, the Mexican war, the revolution,
and under quaint stone, lichened and
aslant a soldier of King Philips war;
not one forgotten, not one neglected.
She observed how everywhere, in
every burial-plot, there were more
flowers: how, naturally and simply,
the day was coming to be one of re-
membrance, not of soldiers, only, but
of all the honored and beloved dead;
how friends, meeting among the fra
grant paths, talked quietly of those
gone, or of the great historic days;
or noted with appreciation the grace
of memorial garlands or the beauty of
clustered flowers.
1t happened that she was woman
who had seen parades and pageants
and state solemnities in many lands.
She had kept very silent, and her
friend, fearing that, to her too-expe-
rienced eye, the dignity of the occa-
sion might have been impaired by oc-
casional crudities and rusticities, and
a decoration here and there in OBJ
trusive i'll taste, expressed her
doubts.

Where all take part, there must be

Coffins Made of Paper.

Some undertakers, whose customers
are poor people, are using collins
made of paper. The collins are made
in all styles of pressed paper pulp,
just the same as the common paper
buckets. When they are vanished
and stained they resemble polished
wood and in point of durability it is
claimed they are much better than
wooden ones.

COS, when a tiny child of tender
years, upon the death of my mother,
my father being in the Army of the
Cumberland, | was left in the care of
the widow of the late Capt. John
Cleves Symmes (of arctic fame),
U. S. A.
Mrs. Symmes was the daughter of
an army officer, Col. Pelchy, U. S. A,
and the widow, first of Capt. Lock
wood, U. S. A, then of Capt. Symmes,
and was a most heroic army woman.
At the time of which l write she was
so years old, full of vigor and activity
The civil war engrossed her entirely.

Promptly at 8 a. m. we often went
on "parade"-that is, we walked out
over the old streets of Newport, Ky,
generally ending the day at the old
barricks (now destroyed), to hear the
band at the evening concert.
One of my childish honors was

her pension from the government in
gold. AS we would approach the build

flag was floating, Salute the flag,

she and | would make the French
courtesy-she was French-bending
from the waist, low, almost to the
ground, and in the most profound man

funereal performance. 1t always at
tracted the attention of surprised peo-
pie. She never noticed them, but tC
me it was a real concern which the
bright little gold dollar-my part of
the penson-could not wholly do
away with. Everywhere and under
any circumstances | would never fail
to salute that flag. and she saw to it

greatest war of all time in the cause
for which it was fought. In the be-

to withdraw from the union proposed
to exercise this right peacefully if it

it with new laws, and the south wished
q separate government in which such
laws would be supreme. The north
insisted that the union was indissol-
uble; that once having entered it,
states could not withdraw. AS a
question of law, this could never be
settled.
1t is pitiful to see how our fathers
for years argued and demonstrated
and quibbled over an Interpretation

ordained the dissolution of this union
and fired on it's flag. Then rose the
curtain on the red drama that cost
million lives before the curtain fell.
Confused in the beginning, the

ground became clear and the pro-
tagonists were disclosed in deadly
strife, not over a petty text, but over
the question of human freedom versus
| human slavery. The fathers had eat.

teeth were set on edge. There could
be no compromise. AS long as this

True and Patient Work.

An idea arrives without effort; a
form can only be wrought out by pa
tient labor. If your story is worth
telling. you ought to love it enough
to work over it until it is true-true
not only to the ideal, but true also to
the real-Henry van Dyke.
