WHO IS UNRECONsTRUCTEDF

" E1u Is LAEhENuN SLELAL
. Editor Fl PasO Herald:
I notice in your Issue Of the 31st of
May that one OF our district judges
has authorized the county auditor to
wire Denver for a confederate flag
to be displayed on the peoples court
house on suitable occasions and 1
would like to raise the question II the
occasion ever could be suitable Tor
the display Of that flag?
Does Mr.. JackSUd's position given
him by the people, give him authority
to desecrate our public buildings in this
way
Also has there not been some ma.
tiOnal legislation along this line pro
hibitinE the display of any flag other
than the Stars and Stripes unless
shown with the American flag always
at the mast head2
The old sectional feeling has been
forgotten by the men who actually
fought witness the demonstration on
the 3Oth), so why must the younger
generation and the women do all they
can to perpetuate it? c. c. ".
Editors Note-The letter printed
above is only one of several communf-
cations IN the same tenor that have
Deen received by The Herald In answer
TO the question whether il be in good
taste to display the confederate nag

The Herald quotes the best beloved Of
all the poets Of the Old South, the re-
Vered Father Ryan" who sang the
heart Of the South in victory and in
defeat The stanzas are from the
poem, The Conquered Banner" writ
ten at the close Of the war:l
FUrl that Banner. for it's weary:
Round its staff tbs dropping dreary;
Furl IL, fold tit is best:
For there's not man to wave Il,
And there's not a sword to save it.
and there's not one left to lave il
In the blood which heroes gave it
Furl It, hide it,-let it rest!
Furl that Banner-furI it sadIyl
once ten thousands hailed it gladly,
And ten thousands wildly, madiy,
SwOre ii should forever wave:
Swore that fOeman's sword should never
Hearts like theirs entwined discover,
TIL that flag should float forever
Ger their freedom or their grave!
Now, though conquered. they adore it
Love the cold dead hands that bore It.
Weep for those who fell before II,
PARDON those who trailed and tore it:
And, O, wildly they deplOre il,
Now TO furl and fold it sol
Furl that Banner. softly. slowly!
Treat ii gently-it is holy,
For il drOOps above the dead.

Changes of Climate.

A scientist who recently investigated the causes of secular variations in tenn perature at the earth's surface thinks that they are more probably due to changes in the amount of carbonic acid in the atmosphere than to varia. uons in the heat of the sun. If the amount of carbonic acid that the air now contains was diminished a little more than half, the mean temperature all over the earth would, 1t is stated arop about eight degrees. which would Oe suihclent to bring on another gla- cial period On the other hand, an in- crease Of carbonic acid to between two and three times it's present amount would raise the mean temperature IS uesrees and renew the hot times of the Eocene epoch.

THE BEST TREATMENT FOR ITCHING SCALPS, DANDRUFF

To allay itching and irritation of the scalp, prevent dry, thin and falling hair, remove crusts, scales and dan druff, and promote the growth and beauty of the hair, the following sps- cial treatment is most effective, agree able and economical. On retiring, comb the hair out straight all around, then begin at the side and make a parting, gently rubbing Cuticura Oint- ment into the parting with bit of soft flannel held over the end of the finger. Anoint additional partings about half an inch apart until the whole scalp has been treated, the pur- pose being to get the Cuticura Oint- ment on the scalp skin rather than on the hair It is well to place @ light covering over the hair to protect the pillow from possible stain. The next morning. shampoo with Cuticura Soap and hot water.

MANY PERSONS COLOR BLIND
Tests Used by Railroads Show That Almost Everybody Is Slightly
 Color Blind.

The various tests for color blind, ness have come into practical use In the examination of railroad engineers and the like, where the ability to dis tnguish colors is necessary, so that these tests are no longer peculiar to the laboratory. But it Is not gener- ally known outside the laboratory that everybody Is partially color blind that is, in certain parts of the field of vision. The most normal individual can see all the colors only when he looks directly at them. If looked at from an angle of about fifteen degrees red and green can no longer be seen, but in their places will appear shades of yellow or blue. This region of the eyes Is known as the yellow-blue zone. If the color be moved still farther to the side the yellow and blue will dis appear and only gray can be seen. This region Is known as the zone of complete color blindness. An inter- esting theory in regard to these zones is that every normal eye represents three stages of evolution. The zone of complete color blindness is the low est stage, and appears in such anil mals as the frog, whose vision Is known as shadow vision. The blue yellow zone Is one step higher in the scale, although not clearly marked off in the animal kingdom And the appearance of the red-green zone marks the highest stage of evolution. Cases of color blindness are, accord ing to this theory, lack of develop ment beyond the early stage of indi yidual fe.-Strand Magazine.
