ALGERIAN NATIVES
As a Cavalry Troop Create a
Great Amount of Interest
on Way to War.

Correspondence of Associated Press).
DUNKIRK, Dec. "A troup of
Counters. or Algerian native cavalry,
created more interest here on their
way to the front than any Of the
French African or British Indian
troops, because their equipment is
entirely Moorish excepting their RI
fles. High backed Moorish saddles,
built with all the comfort of rock
ing chairs, are girtned upon Wild
looking Arab horses. The men wear
BILE robes, boots of red Morocco
leather and o white bowl-like fez,
about which is wound band of
brown yarn. The color Of the men
is light. although well tanned by
the sun. but their hair and eyes are
jet black. One of the officers is a
native who won mention in the
dispatches eighteen times and re-
ceived the cross Of the Legion of
Honor in the Algerian wars.

Washington, d. C.-Waving his hand
toward an American flag hoisted by q
squad of navy bluejackets, President
Wilson told great crowd assembled
before the State, War and Navy Build
ings to celebrate Flag Day that, flying
over reunited nation, this banner for
the future was meant to stand for the
just use of undisputed national power"
"Our spirits, as well as our States,
are now reunited" said the President,
land nobody questions our ability to
push forward our economic affairs
upon lines of unparalleled success and
prosperity.
81 sometimes wonder why men take
this flag and flaunt it. If l am re-
spected l do not have to demand re-
spect. If am feared | do not have to
ask for fear. If my power is known
l do not have to proclaim it, | do
not understand the temper, neither
does this nation understand the tenn
per of men who use this flag boast
fully.
"This flag for the future is meant
to stand for the just use of undis-
puted national power. No nation is
ever going to doubt our power to as
sert its rights, and we should lay it to
heart that no nation shall ever hence
forth doubt our purpose to put 1t to
the highest uses to which great
emblem of justice and government can
be put.
as it not proud thing to stand
under such an emblem? Would it not
be pitiful thing ever to make apology
and explanation of anything that we
ever did under the leadership of this
flag carried in the van. Is it not a
solemn responsibility laid upon us to
lay aside buster and assume that
much greater thing, the quietude of
genuine power? So it seems to me
that it is my privilege and right as
the temporary representative of a
great nation that does what it pleases
with its own affairs to say that we
please to do justice and assert the
rights of mankind wherever this flag
Is. unfurled."
Secretary Bryan and Secretary
Daniels delivered addresses dwelling
upon the Presidents idea that the mis-
sion of the United States is one of
liberty and justice.

Skinny.

A contributor to the American Mag
azine tells the following story:
"a clerk in one of the great jewelry
stores on Fifth avenue in New York
City exhibited to rich and weary
customer lady's handbag, five inches
square made of platinum and fairly
we'll covered on one side only with
diamonds. The price was $4,000. The
fact that one side only was covered
with diamonds troubled the customer
Turning the handbag around and
around, and looking at it from all
sides over and over, he finally said,
Very pretty-really. But don't like
one side without diamonds. Honestly
the thing looks skimpy-rather skim
py.' At an additional expense of ST.
900 this difficulty was removed"

EYE STRAIN
Relieved by Quitting Coffee.

Many cases of defective vision are
caused by the habitual use of coffee.
1t is said that in Arabia where cof-
fee is used in large quantities, many
lose their eyesight at about fifty. Tea
contains the same drug. caffeine, az
coffee.
A N. J. woman writes to the point
concerning eye trouble and coffee.
She says:
MY son was for years troubled with
his eyes. He tried several kinds OF
glasses without relief. The optician
said there was defect in his eyes
which was hard to reach.
He used to drink coffee, as we all
did, and finally quit it and began to
use Postum. That was three years
ago and he has not had to wear
glasses and has had no trouble with
his eyes since.
Il was always fond of tea and coffee
and finally became so nervous could
hardly sit still long enough to eat
meal. My heart was in such a con-
uAtiOh thOuSAb might VIC dI any
time.
Medicine did not give me relief
and l was almost desperate. 1t was
about this time we decided to quit cof-
fee and use Postum, and have used 1t
ever since. l am in perfect health.
No trouble now with my heart and
never felt better in my life.
Postum has been great blessing
to us all, particularly to my son and
myself"

The simplest method of fastening the
flower-pots is by using screw-eyes,
screwing screw-eye through the hole
in the bottom of each pot into the post
or other support. The screw-eye can
be turned by hand, and the eye is
large enough to hold the pot in place,
which is the advantage Of using a
screw-eye instead Of screw.
