 Other flags include some of the Spanish American war, a flag used by Admiral Charles Wilkes, U. s. navy; a miniature flag carried by Capt. c. F. Hall in the Arctic, 1864 1869; the American colors carried by Rear Admiral Peary, in his Arctic explorations in 1909; the flag car- ried by the Smithsonian African ex petition under tile direction of Col. Theodore Roosevelt m 1909-10; and numerous examples of the national ensign which has flown in notable engagements and during countless worthy achievements.

Tbc Smithsonian Institution today issued the following:
 Today probably several million Am erican flags are waving serenely In the various breezes of our spacious hand. significant of the calm and dig niied, yet deep and lasting patriotism of the American people. Be this our , native land or adopted country we pledge allegiance to that flag, un- cover as we pass, and wear it in miniature as token of our loyalty. And yet what do we know about it's meaning and it's history? A lecture trip to the United States national mu- depository of American relics will teach much concerning the flag.
 Naturally there were many forms of early flags, especially colonial types used by the individual colonial types militia regiments, before the flag of the United States was established by our continental congress on June fl, = TIT, now celebrated as flag day. This act required that the flag of the Uni ted States be of thirteen horizontal stripes, alternate red and white, and that the union be thirteen white new constellation, but it did not de- fine how many points the stars should have, how they should be arranged, nor make provision for additional ones.a
 One of the first occasions for public display of the stars and Stripes" is said to have been on August 6, TIT, when the new flag was hoisted over the troops at Ft. Schuyler, Rome, NY. the first to fly the Stars and Stripes" over the high Seas. on the Ranger. in November. TIT. The National Mu- scum has an early naval 12-star type flag sand to have been known by John Paul Jones during the war of the rev olution.
 From the time of the revolution tie stars and stripes in the flag have va red. There were 13 stars during the revolution, 15 in the war of 1872, % in the Mexican war, B to 35 in the civil war, 45 in the Spanish war, and AS in today. The stripes were changed first from 13 to 15. and then back again to 13. It may be surprising to lshoY that our national flag is among thevoldest flags of the nations, being older than the present British Jack the French Tricolor and the flag of Spain, and many years older than the flags of Germany and Italy some of which are either personal flags or those of the reigning families.

Not Carried by Army Until 1846.

It seems that for many years the army did not carry the Stars and Stripes in battle. though it had been m general use as a garrison flag. The land forces during this period and before carried what was known as national colors or standards of blue, with the coat of arms of the United States comprising an eagle surmount- ed by a number of stars, emblazoned thereon, with the designation of the body of troops. In 1884, war depart ment regulations gave the artillery the right to carry the Stars ma Stripes. The infantry and cavalry still used the national standards fantry until 1S41 and of the cavalry until. 1887 when that branch of the army was ordered to carry the Stars and Stripes. From Its adop- ton in TIT. however naval vessels universally displayed the national flag.
 The history of our flag thus indi- cates that the Stars and Stripes was not officially carried by our troops in battle until the period of the Mexican war, 1S46-47. Tn that war a flag of 13 stars and stripes was carried by the battalian of volunteers from Maryland and the district of Colum bia, and the flag of company l. Fourth

Lemons Written and
Beautify the Skin!
Make Cheap Lotion

The Juice of two fresh lemons
strained into a bottle containing three
ounces of orchard white makes a
whole quarter pint Of the most re-
markable lemon skin beautifier at
about the cost one must pay for a
small Jar of the ordinary cold creams.
Care Should be taken to strain the
lemon juice through a fine cloth so
no lemon pulp gets in, then this 10
ton will keep fresh for months. Ev
ery woman knows that lemon juice is
used to bleach and remove such
blemishes as freckles, sallowness and
tan and is the ideal skin softener,
smoothener and beautifier.
Just try it! Make up a quarter
pint Of this sweetly fragrant lemon
lotion ard massage it daily into the
face, neck, arms and hands. 1t should
naturally help to whiten, soften,
freshen, and brine out the hidden
roses and beauty Of any skin. 1t is
wonderful for rough, red hands.
Your druggist will sell three ounces
of orchard white at little cost, and
any grocer will supply the lemons.
