Thu National EIaa.

The first display of the national flag
at military post was at Fort Schuy-
Ter, on the site Of the present city of
Rome. N. Y. The fort was besieged
early in August. 1777. The garrison
was without flag. so one was made
according to, the prescription of con-
gress by cutting up SHEETS to form the
white stripes. bits Of scarlet cloth for
the red stripes. and the blue ground
for the stars was made from piece of
the blue cloak belonging to Captain
Abraham Swartwout Of Duchess
county. N. Y. This flag was unfurled
over the fort on Aug. 3. 1777.
The national flag was first unfurled
I'm battle on the banks Of the Brandy
wine Sept. II. 1777. The flag was
first hoisted over foreign stronghold
June %. 1778. when Captain Rathbone
of the American sloop of war Provi-
dence captured Fort Nassau, on the
Bahama islands. Captain Paul Jones
was the first man to display the Amer
lean flag on an American vessel This
flag was made by the women Of Ports
mouth. N. H.. for the Ranger, which
was fitted out at that port for Captain

Little Known Republics.

Within the domain of the United
States on the North American cont
~nent there have been divers independ-
ent republics. says Mary W. Hazeltine
in Harpers Magazine, the very name
Of three of which is known to but
few. How many Americans of today
have heard. for example, Of the CON-
monwealth Of Watauga. which in 1772
was organized as an independent CON-
munity by North Carolinians who had
crossed the Alleghenies and. descend
ing into the basin of the Tennessee.
had made themselves homes in the val
ley of the Vatauga river? How many
remember the wealth Of Tran
sylvania. which WAS organized in the
eastern part Of what is now Kentucky
in 1873 and which sent to the Cont
rental congress Il delegate. who. how
ever was not admitted: How many
have heard of the short lived state of
Franklin. or Frankland which at a
somewhat later period was self ere
ated out of certain western counties of
North Carolina?

Whistler as a Horseman.

Boggs. cadet cavalry officer at
West Point academy. was an assist
ant in the riding hall. On one occa-
sion he overheard Whistler. who thor
oughly disliked to ride, objecting siren
uously to the horse brought for his
use. The horse. he argued. was too
heavily built and much too large for
man of his size. Whistler. with much
vehemence. urged the man next him
to "swap." The man with whom he
wished to exchange horses was Of
muscular build and "pretty generous
size'' and his horse a lightweight an
imal. 50 it seemed to Whistler that it
would be ''most fitting exchange"
"Oh. don't swap! Don't you swap.
Mr.. Whistler cried the dragon.
''Yours is a war horse. STRIP
"A war horse" exclaimed Whistler
'"That settles it. I certainly don't want
him."
Eyes. you do. sir" reiterated the
man. Hes a war horse. tell you. for
he'd rather die than n."-Century.

Decline Of tho Mustache.

Permission to wear mustache was
eagerly sought after in the middle of
the last century. But now the virile
decoration is discarded. Why? In
those old days the Bank Of England
would not allow it's employees to wear
it and issued an order, which might
have come more appropriately from a
bank of Ireland. 1t was to the effect
that the mustache was not to be worn
in business hours! A large drapery
firm in London objected not only to
the mustache. but to hair parted down
the middle. There is more tolerance
now. Men look younger when clean
shaved. They are also more readable
without the protection given by the
mustache to the upper lip. If hearts
can be worn on sleeves thoughts can
be read on upper lips. But is it always
wise to leave the legend unhidden
Men seldom like to be OWNED. as La
Rochefoucauld remarked once and for
all time.-London Express.

He Sings, and Well He May.

! sing about the stately COW,
with antlers growing on her brow
and a tassel on her tail, no other
animal can put so we'll her foot
inside'a six quart pail. My old
cow prods me with her horns and
puts her Tri)by on my corns and
fills my soul with grief, but she
consoles me with some milk that's
SMOOTH and white and fine as
silk, and rich beyond belief. The
city-dwelling modern man goes
to the grocer for can OF milk
made by trust or from the dairy
man he'll get a pint of something
pale and wet, in which to soak his
crust. And all the..people of that
ilk, who live on canned or doctor

FREE LIBRARIES FOR FARMERS.

With the approach. of the long
winter evenings, there is need of
providing something to proftably
employ the minds of the various
members of the household. Where
one is fortunate enough to be in
touch with one of our rural mail
routes, there is ample chance to pro-
vide series of good periodicals and
to receive them in good season.
There is however, a need and a
desire for books to read, and where
these are not wisely chosen it fire.
quently happens that some are read
which might better have been left
unread.
The Public Library Commission is
in position to supply reasonable
number of rural communities with a
special agricultural library of fifty
volumes. Twenty-Five Of these vol.
umes are standard works of fiction,
and the balance careful selection
of reliable works on most phrases OF
agriculture. These libraries are
loaned to communities practically

A Remarkable Concert.

A Carlsbad letter calls attention to q
remarkable concert which took place
at the Spa on Aug. 6. 1912. a program
Of which is still preserved in the city
archives at that place. The entertain.
ment was given for the benefit of the
sufferers by the fire which had laid
waste Baden and took place at the
Saechs;Scher Saal The only perform
erS were Beethoven and Poledro. who
played their own compositions. There
were two pianoforte and two violin
solos and several numbers in which
both took part. says the writer The
account of the entertainment also
mentions the fact that one of the inter-
ested listeners was tall. elderly
man. wearing great blue coat, who
sat perfectly erect throughout the per-
formance never looking anywhere but
at the stage. This was Goethe" The
amount realized for the fund was
about 5000. The letter ends with
'Beethoven at the piano for charity
and box receipts 500"

David B. Hill, democrat to the
end, died suddenly in his New York
home. AS an example of devotion
to political party he occupied an
unique position. Often men,
toned as possible democratic
candidate for president, he failed of
this honor, rather because of his
pronounced views and rugged
honesty, than for any other reason.
He belonged to the school of James
G.. Carlisle and Grover Cleveland
and few of his kind remain.

How Plants Remain Upriqht.

If flowerpot is laid on it's side the
stalk of the plant growing in it grad
ually curves upward until it resumes
the vertical position. This is called
geotropic curvature, and the question
is by what means the plant is stimu-
lated to change it's direction of growth.
One theory AYERS that movable starch
grains in the plant cells fall to the low.
er side as the position is changed and
by their pressure influence the mech.
anism of growth.
