ALLEGED SIJR ON FLAG;

RELLINGHAM. WASH. July 90
Denial Of the charge that he had made
remarks dcroeatory to the American
flag was made here to-day by DR. T.
Il. ClaNton who is here lecturing
Five or six years ago. in Boston,"
said he II delivered Il lecture in which
among other things, said: In mod
crn times the flag must stand for
larger things than 1t did for the an
clients. People are drawn from all
corners of the earth to live together
They are born in one place live in
another, travel much, and thus come
nearer to the ideal universal father
hood of God and brotherhood Of man,
and in this connection the flag in the
broader sense must serve all. The
time has come when men do not revere
the flag alone for its material or COM
hination of colors, but for what it
symboliZes.'
II never said derogatory word
about the flag in my life"

pected from different points in that
state. Governor Locke Craig and

HOW DAUBIT ROSE TO FAME
Painter May Have Had Successful
Qualities All the Time, ano
Then Again

Realism may not always prove up
as all artistic quality" explained the
old critic, "but it sometimes hits the
spot as business proposition.
I'm thinking of Dar'bit. Daublt
was a middle-aged painter with a fu'
ture behind him in the little town he
hailed from. He stuck to idealism
until he saw that it was no use, then
he turned realist and took the step
that made him.
About this time he met a spinster
in ill health, fifty years old, and rich as
Croesus. The spinster was passion
ately fond of cats. and Of one big old
tabby in particular.
"Daubit saw his chance. He pulled
the strings and arranged for a bust
ness interview with her. He talked
glibly and persuaded her to sit for
her portrait. She agreed to let him
paint her as she liked best to sit at
home, with the stipulation that if the
picture did not suit she need not pay
one cent.
But our painter wasn't to be baked
or daunted. He borrowed money on
his dress suit and fixed his studio up
and had her easy chair and other
things hauled dpwh and back every
sitting. He posed her in the chair,
and he put beside it the basket in
which her fayorite tabby always TOOK
her ease. He painted this basket
empty
When the picture was. done he let
her wait for a day or two before he
invited her and her friends to come
and see 1t. He sent special invita-
ton to the big old tabby. too. That
pleased her, but she kept her critical
air and made ready to declare that
she did not want tue picture enough
to pay real money for it. Just when
she was ready to speak the tabby ap-
preached the picture, seemed to no.
tice it for the first time-it was on
the hoor-and then, smelling. new
ing, and evidently delighted, did her
best to get at the basket.
The spinster changed her mind in
stantly. She took the cats word for
its excellence and bought the picture
at good round price.
she hung the picture in her home,
and in six months Daubit was there
with her to help her enjoy it. His
marriage to her made him celebrity
among all the rich people, and now he

suppose, and just needed an oppor-
tunity?'
Maybe went on the old critic,
"but friend of mine who runs a little
animal store near Daubit's old studio
told me that Daubit came in the day
before the exhibition and bought some
catnip.
For my part, I make no rash
charges-genius is genius, even when
it pursues dark and devious way"

"DELICAClES" AT THE FRONT
Hindu Troops Have Partially tor
painties That Seem Peculiar
to Western Senses.

A Native Indian writer, a Mr.. Mira,
in letter to an English newspaper,
tells Of the kind of delicacies that the
British Indian troops at the front par
ticularly enjoy. The principal things
are ghee, areca nut, betel and Indian
tobacco,

made from curdled milk-in India
usually from buffalo milk. The
curdled milk is churned into butter;
then the butter stands for a few days
until it begins to turn rancid. Then
it Is boiled, and seasoned with dhye-
whatever that is-salt or the leaf OF
the betel, which is kind of pepper
plant. Indians like 1t, but Europeans
seldom do, because it is so ripe" that
it Is virtually rancid.
AS most people know, the Hindus
use the areca nut as a kind OF chew.

leaf and a little shell lime. The nut
is astringent and bitter, but it does
not seem to have any particular effect
on the user. The betel leaf adds .
peppery flavor to the combination
