SPOTS AND STAINS.
Ways in Which the Various Kinds May
Be Removed.
(Boston Herald.)

After spring housecleaning is over
every housekeeper usually finds on her
hands many things which were put
aside in the busy cleaning days to be
attended to later. Many of these
things, sometimes the accumulation of
wears. are fit only for the scrap heap
or rag bag More and more women
are coming to value the fact that rub
bish heaps of old clothes and wornout
household articles in the attic are
menace to health and safety, for they
invite, dust, germs and fire.
But there are many things, doubt
less. that are worth repairing-gloves
that need mending and cleaning, a
rug that is badly stained but not
worn out, a picture frame that needs
Frightening up and other articles that
need cleaning and mending.
For all these materials ailments and
defects, patent cleansers, paints or
stains are sold, and If directions are
followed, results are generally sure
and satisfactory. But the average wo-
man thinks that every detail in the
somewhat involved directions may not
be important and so the remedy fails
and she blames the maker.

be the first distinctively American flag.
1t was blue with a white crescent and
matched the dress of the troops, VINO

The colonists desired to adopt a COM
mon flag; but they had not yet declared
independence and were not at first seek
ing independence They took the British
flag as they knew it. and made a new
colonial flag by dividing the red field
with white stripes into 10 alternate red
and white stripes. This is known as the
Cambridge flag, because 1t was first I'M
furled over Washington's headquarters
at Cambridge, Mass, on January l, lII6
1t complied with the law of 1907 by hav-
ing the Union Jack on it; IL also repre-
scented the 10 colonies by the 10 stripes
As the colonists gradually became con-
verified to the idea that independence
from the mother country was necessary,
they began to modify the flag, first by
leaving off the Union Jack and using
only the 10 horizontal stripes. The modi-
fed flags were not always red and white,
but regularly consisted of combinations
of two eolors selected from red, white,
blue and yellow. The final modification
was the replacement of the Union Jack
by the white stars on blue field.
The stars are the only distinctive fea-
ture of the American flag. The charm
ing story which credits Betsy Ross with
making the first flag of stars and stripes
is still accepted by historians. When
Washington suggested the six-pointed
star, she demonstrated the ease with
which a five pointed star could be made
by folding a piece Of paper and produc-
ing one with a single clip of the scis-
sors. Some writer's are of the opinion
that both stars and stripes in the flag
were derived from the coat of arms OF
the washington family, but this theory
is not generally held.
The official adoption of our first flag
was in lit On June IA of that year the
Continental Congress passed an act pro-
vidng that the flag of the 10 United
States be Is stripes; alternate red and
white that the Union be Is stars, white
on a blue field, representing a new con-
stelation" The 10 stars were arranged
in circle to symbolic the perpetuity
of the Union of the states.
Vermont was admitted to the Union IN
1871 and Kentucky in 1892. 1t was felt
that these TWO new Sldtso ouSHt " "
recognized on the flag, SO in 1874 Congress
passed an act making the flag 10 stars
and Is stripes.
This remained the flag of the United
States throughout the War of 1872 until
there were 90 states in the Union. In
1916, an effort was again made to modify
the flag so that all the new states would
be represented on it. To be continually
adding stripes would make the flag very
awkward in shape and appearance. so
after arguing the matter for two years
Congress decided to return to the origl-
nal 10 stripes and one star for each State
| Congress has never determined the ar
rangement of the stars nor the shape and
proportions of the flag, and there mas
been great variation, especially In the
grouping of the stars. There are still
many who believe that the symbolic cir
cular grouping of stars should be re-
stored.

The Story of the Stars and Stripes

The American flag is growth. rather
than a creation. Its history can be
traced back to the 18th century. or nearly
600 years prior to the first Flag Day."
June IA, 1777
During the first crusade in 1895. Pope
Urban ii assigned to all of the Christian
nations as standards crosses varying in
color and design, emblematic of the war
fare in which they were engaged. To the
Scotch troops was assigned the white
satire, known as the white cross of St
Andrew, on a blue field. The British
used yellow cross. but century and
a quarter later they adopted red cross
on a white field, known as the red cross
of ST. George.
When James VI of Scotland assembled
the throne of England as James I, he
combined the two flags, and issued
proclamation requiring all ships to carry
the new flag at their main masts. At
the same time the vessels of South
Britain were to carry at their foremasts
! the red cross of St. George and the ships
of North Britain to carry the white
cross of St Andrew.
The new flag was known as King
Colors," the Union Colors," or the
Great Union, and later as the Union
Jack" and was the one under which the
British made all their permanent settle
ments in America 1t was the flag OF
Great Britain only by proclamation,
| however: not until 1907 did Parliament
pass an act definitely uniting the two
countries and their flags. In the same
year the Government issued regulations
requiring the Navy to use what was
known as the white ensign; the Naval
Reserve, the blue ensign; the British
Merchant Marine the red ensign. Owing
to the fact that the British merchant
vessels were everywhere, the colonists
in America came to look upon this red
ensign as the flag of Great Britain.
The people in the New England colo
MES were bitterly opposed to the cross in
the flag. In 1885 some of the troops in
Massachusetts declined to march under
this flag and the military commissioners
were forced to design other flags for their
trips with the cross left out. The de-
sign they adopted has not been pre-
served. In 1862 a mint was established in
Boston. Money coined in this mint had
the pine tree stamped on one side OF II.
The pine tree design was also used on
New England flags, certainly by 11oi and
possibly as early as 1855.
At the outbreak of the Revolution the
American colonies had no flag common
to all of them. In many cases the mer-
chant marine flag of England was used
with the pine tree substituted for
the Union Jack. Massachusetts adopt
ed the green pine tree on whlte
field with the motto: IAN Appeal to
Heaven" Some of the Southern States
had the rattlesnake flag with the motto
Don't Tread on Me- on white or yell
low field. This flag had been used by
South Carolina as early as 1864. Benja-
min Franklin defended the rattlesnake
device on the ground that the rattlesnake
is found only in America and that ser
pent emblems were considered by an
clients to be symbols Of wisdom.
In September 1775 there was displayed
in the South what is by many believed to
