Tho Order of tho Gath,

The last knights of the Bath made
according to the ancient forms we're at
the coronation Of Charles H., when
various rites and ceremonies, one Of
which was bathing, were enforced.
According to Froissart, the court
barber prepared a bath, and the can
didate for membership in the order,
having been undressed by his esquires,
was thereupon placed in the bath, his
clothes and collars being the perqui-
sites Of the barber. He was then re-
moved from the water to the words
MAY this be an honorable bath to
you" and was placed In a plain bed
quite wet and naked to dry. AS soon
as he was quite dry he was removed
from the bed, dressed In new and rich
apparel and conducted by his sponsors
to the chapel, where he offered a taper
to the honor Of God and a penny piece
to the honor Of the king. Then he
went to the monarch and, k~neeling
before him. received from the royal
sword a tap on the shoulder, the king
exclaiming. "Arise. Sir -" and then
embraced him, saying. BE thou a good
knight, and true."-London Strand
Magazine.

EngIand's Patron Saint.

The story Of E%ngland's patron saint
Is surrounded by a mixture of truth
and fable which defies definite sitting.
He is generally believed to have been
born at Lydia, but brought up in Cap
padocia, and suffered martyrdom in
the reign Of Diocletian, A: D. 303. The
legend of his conflict with the dragon
may have arisen from q symbolical or
allegorlcal representation Of his con-
test with the pagan prosecutors. When
our crusaders went to the east In 1906
they found st. George elevated to the
rank Of warrior saint, with the title
of the victorious" and as they be-
lieved that they were indebted to him
for aid in the siege of Antioch they
adopted him as the patron of soldiers.
Edward III. was thus led to make him
patron Of the Order Of the Garter, and
so gradually st. George became the tu-
,telary saint Of England.-London Mail.

Why does Great Britain buy
Its oatmeal Of us?

Certainly it seems like carrying
Goals to Newcastle to speak of export
ing oatmeal to Scotland and yet, every
year the Quaker Oats Company sends
hundreds of thousands Of cases OF
Quaker Oats to Great Britain and
Europe.
The reason is simple; while the
English and Scotch have for centuries
eaten oatmeal in quantities and with a
regularity that has made them the
most rugged physically, and active
mentally of all people, the American
has been eating oatmeal and trying all
the time to improve the methods of
manufacture so that he might get that
desirable foreign trade.
How we'll he has succeeded would
be seen at a glance at the export re-
ports on Quaker Oats. This brand is
recognized as without a rival in clean.

The Washington correspond.
ent to the Grand Forks Times
has the following to say of one Of
the former owners of the "Dude'
rancho near Medora:
Il am Just down here running
a hash mill for innocent people,"
was the response of Howard
Eaton, one of the proprietors of
Eaton's ranch at Wolf, Wyo.,
who is at the Raleigh. Eaton is
a typical cowboy and plainsman.
He is a fitting example OF the
strenuous life advocated by for
mer President Roosevelt. The
latter and Eaton we're ranchmen
together in North Dakota many
years ago, and the two became
close friends.
Il am here visiting people and
riding grub line. I'm getting so
fat that none of my clothes will
fit me, except my umbrella, and
I'm getting three new ribs put
in that to prepare for Washing
ton society. President Taft?
Nc. I have not been to see him.
He never was a COW <puncher.
What do 1 think about Pinchot?
I am not up on the fine points of
law, but we people from the west
believe that Pinchot knows more
about conservation and trees
than any other man alive. In
fact, he knows these questions
much better than I do the way
into the nearest side door,"
MI. Eaton has been following
with deepest interest the reports
from Africa, telling Of the won
derful success of the former
president as nimrod.
Teddy is the best shot for a
nearsighted man 1 have ever
seen. Without his glasses, how
ever, he could not distinguish
the Bible from a cocktail, and
would be very liable to pick the
wrong one, but with the aid of
his binoculars he can pull down
anything from a mosquito to a
bear, if it happens to come with
in his range"
Mr. Eaton brought down from
his ranch some mountain lions
and bears, which will be on ex-
hibition at the sportsmen's show
at Chicago, to be held March 19.
He has supplied animals for
nearly all the leading biological
parks through the country.
A native of Pittsburg, Eaton
has always taken the deepest
interest in the politics Of the
keystone state. He brings
word to Washington that Repre-
sentative John K. Tener, of the
Twenty-fourth district, is the
most talked of man as the next
Republican governor of the
state. . %
"Tener, l believe, is the choice
of the Republican organization
in Pennsylvania to succeed Gov
ernor Stuart. Talk among his
old friends would indicate that
if Tener decides to enter the
race, he will be a hard man to
beat, as he has the younger ele-.
ment with him." !.
Mr.. Eaton is going to make
Washington his headquarters
until the next Gridiron dinner, at
which he will be the guest of
Col. Henry Hall, the former
president of the club. Col. Hall
himself. spends several months
of each year trying to acquire a
limited knowledge of COW punch
