HANGING UNMOUNTED FLAGS.
Correct Position Of the Union to the
Eye OF the Observer.

1t is sometimes bit puZzling to
know just how to hang fag-just
what is the correct position Of the
union \ letter to the New York Trib-
une tells exactly how it should be
hung;
'All rules for hanging against a wall
flag which is not attached to its staff
are in reference to the right or left
hand of the observer The union will
be in the upper right hand corner if the
stripes are perpendicular. Thus on u
street running north ana south the
flags on the east side win have their
unions toward the north and these on
the west side win all have their unions
toward the south unless some of them
are hung with stripes horizontal, when
the position of the union viii be re-
versed. AS one drives down the street
this may give at first the impression
that there is no uniformity, though all
the flags may be correctly hung but
every flag will be right side out despite
the diversity" a.
The writer adds that street banner
should be hung across the street at an
equal distance from both curbs; that n
flag not attached TO a staff hung upon
wall should have the union at the
top; that the union should he at the
left of the observer if the stripes are
horizontal; that the union should lie Ut
the right of the observer if the stripes

Our Soldier Boys Want a Yictrola.

Muhlenberg soldier boys at Camp
Zachary Taylor, Louisville, are
writing home that they are having
fine time, are splendidly located and
cared for, but there is one thing
which they need and want. Prac-
tically every outfit there has a Vic.
trola, and they want one. They
have appealed to the newspapers of
the county to start camp ign for
funds for providing this, and of
course have the hearty support of
the press. The machine and records
will belong to the public, and will
be kept at the camp for all future
boys who go there, and in the end
returned here for use in some pub
lie place. The Record has received
the following cash Subscriptions, and
asks quick and liberal response
from people all over the county, as
it is desired that we get the instru-
ment to camp as soon as possible.

&ocaA Mention.
A PATRIOTIC WISH.

Id like to be the sort of man the flag
could boast about;
Id like to be the sort Of man it cannot live
without;
I'd like to be the type Of mar,
That really is American:
The head-erect and shouidksssfuare,
Clean minded fellow, just ahd far,
That all men picture when they see
The glorious banner of the free.
Id like to be the sort OF man the flag now
typi6es.
The kind of man we really want the flag
to symbolic;
The loyal brother to a trust,
The big, unselhsh soul and just,
The friend of every man oppressed,
The strong support Of all that's best.
The sturdy chap the banner's meant,
Where'er it flies, to represent.
Id like to be the sort Of man the flag S sup
posed to mean,
The man that all in fancy see wherever it
is seen,
The chap that's ready for a fight
Wherever there's wrong to right.
The friend in every time of need.
The doer of the daring deed,
The clean and generous-handed man
That is real American.

GRANDMA NEVER LET

She Kept Her Locks Dark and
Glossy, with Sage Tea
and Sulphur.

When you darken your hair with Sage
Tea and Sulphur, no one can tell, be-
cause it's done so naturally, so evenly.
Preparing this mixture, though, at home
is mussy and troublesome. For SO cents
you can buy at any drug store the ready
to-use preparation, improved by the addi-
ton of other ingredients, called 'Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" You just
dampen a sponge or soft brush with it
and draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time. By morning
all gray hair disappears, and, after an
other application or two, your hair be-
comes beautifully darkened, glossy and
luxuriant.
Gray, faded hair, though no disgrace,
is sign of old age, and as we all de-
sire youthful and attractive appear
ance, get busy at once with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound and look years
younger. This ready-to-use preparation
is delightful toilet requisite and not q
medicine. It is not intended for the cure,
mitigation Or prevention OF disease.

DRINK lIl(jI{{E! WATER
If KIDNEYS BOTHER
Eat less meat and take Salts for Eaclz-
ache CT Bladder trouble
= Eautralizes acids.

Uric acid in meat excites the kidneys,
they become overworked; get sluggish,
ache, and feel like Jumps of lead. The
urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is irri-
tailed, and you may be obliged to seek re-
lief two or three times during the night.
When the kidneys clog you must help
them flush off the body's urinous waste
Or you'll be a real sick person shortly.
At first you feel dull misery in the kid
ney region, you suffer from backache,
sick headache, dizziness, stomach gets
sour, tongue coated and you feel rheu-
matte twinges when the weather is bad.
Eat less meat, drink lots Of water;
also get from any pharmacist four ounces
of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful
in a glass Of water before breakfast
for few days and your kidneys will
then act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to clean clogged kidneys
and stimulate then, to normal activity,
also to ne,,o1s.;ize he ; eds in urine, so
it no longer is q source of irritation,
thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is Inexpensive, cannot in
jure; makes a delightful effervescent
Whitewater drink which everyone should
take now and then to keep the kidneys
clean and active. Druggists here say
they sell lots of Jad Salts to folks who
believe in overcoming kidney trouble
while it is only trouble. y
