Scouts should be particularly IN
terested in our American flag, for
it was first flung to the wind in
battle by little band of scouts
charged with holding battered old
Forot Stanwix against an out
numbering force of bloodthirsty
Indians and tories who were
swooping down from Niagara to
rob and murder American farmers
and their families in western New
York.
Made Flag of Shirts
These scouts-for they had been
peace scouts, farmers, hunters and
pioneers before the outbreak of
the revolutionary war forced them
to become war scouts-were up
against the real thing. Gen.
Herkimer. who had been marching
to their relief, had been killed and
his army driven back. But they
never faltered. 1t was up to them
to hold Fort Stanwix. To cheer
themselves on to perform this
dangerous and important task,
they fashioned the stars and
stripes from bits of red, white ami
blue cloth they had at hand, even
tearing up their red flannel shirts
to make the stripes.
History OF Flag.
The present design of the Unit
ed States flag was adopted by the
continental congress June IA,
1777. The first flag was made by
Mrs. Betsey Ross of philadelphia 4,
under the direction of Geo. Wash
ington himself. 1t had 13 stripes
and 13 stars, stripe and star
for each of the original 10 states.
This information about cur flag
is important to all scouts, not only
because it is something which as
loyal American boys they are in
terested in knowing, but also be-
cause it is required that thev must

TEN YEARS TEST
OF ECZEMA CURE

After q ten years. test, oil OF win
tergreen. as compounded In D. D. D..
Prescription. has SO thoroughly, SO
absolutely proven its merit for skin
diseases, that we have arranged with
the d. d. d. Laboratories Of Chicago
for a special offer on 25-cent trial
bottle.
We ourselves became convinced
years ago. Cure after cure and the
testimony of the worlds leading skin
specialists showed us that the way
to cure the skin is through the skin;
not, however, by means Of salve
which always clogs the outer skin,
but with a penetrating liquid that
gets to the inner skin, killing the
germs while soothing the healthy
tissue.
The Oil of Wintergreen Compound
d. D. d. Prescription, penetrates
while soothing the skin; and a %
cent bottle-a good sized trial bot
tle--is now offered, besides the S1.OO
bottles. in order to convince every
body. For this trial bottle ought
to be enough to show the way to the
cure, and at any rate the liquid the
instant 1t is applied will take away
that itch--yes, just as soon as the
wash is applied, the skin is soothed
and refreshed.
