The FLAG on the schoo Ihouse.

Every public schooIhouse' in this
country wears as browning jewel the
United States flag. This is so accord
ing to the law. But long before legis-
lative bodies passed this law the flag
had permanent place over the Fifth
Street Grammar school i'm New Bed
ford. the first public school in this
country to raise the United States flag
and make the use of it a permanent
feature of the public school admins
tration.
That flag was unfurled May II, 1861.
and that flag and nine others served
the school until May IL, 1901, the for
tieth anniversary of the raising of
flags, when u small one for use within
the building and larger one for use
on the building were unfurled.
This school was organized Sept. II
1850, and just eight months from that
day it flung to the breeze the first flag.
That flag was in use during the entire
period of the war. At the end of the
war the flag was completely whipped
out and unfit for further use. 1t was
then discarded. but not till its success
sOr had been purchased. What became
of it nobody knows.-BOSton Globe.

Isle of the BIest.

The king of England is not the only
king In the British isles. There Is also
the king of the Isle of BardSey, an is
land of Wales in the Irish sea, in the
County of Carnarvon. This kingdom.
with its seventy-siX inhabitants-that
figure including the king and queen
is, we are reminded, free and indie
pendent realm. The monarch is not
only sovereign ruler, but physician.
schOolmaster, magistrate. He neither
owes nor gives obedience to the laws
of England. His subjects pay no taxes
and live luXuriously upon barley bread,
milk and butter. No newspapers trOu-
ble the peace of the teeming populace.
and nobody on the island troubles him
self about what goes on outside his ma
tive rock bound coast. They are a hap
by people. though perhaps their igno-
rance of the fact that they are so may
mar the perfection of their content
ment.-Paris Journal.

Presidential Dignity.

Dignity is the most terrible punish
ment inflicted by the people upon their
president The president must always
be on his dignity; he can never relax.
He cannot sit in the orchestra or in
the gallery, away from everybody $
staring chances. He cannot laugh too
uproariOusly; he cannot fail to applaud
He is constantly on exhibition. When
he travels he must appear at all the
railroad stations that he passes through
lest the impression get abroad that he
is undemocratic. The secret service
men are by act Of congress ordered TO
guard the life of the president. They
shop with him, they accompany him on
the links, they sit in his limousine
they go to the oculist with him, to
church, to the bank. The president, in
short. is not a private person at any
time: he is treated by the government,
the people and the press as public prop
crty.-David Lawrence in Century.

WORLDS GRATEST TELE-
SCOPE AT MOUNT WILSON

Work on the 1O0-in. rejecting tele.
scope at the Mount Wilson observa-
tory, Pasadena, Calf, is approaching
the final stage, and within a few
months, possibly by July, will be com.
pleJed The instrument will be the
largest stellar camera in existence and
will collect twice as much light as any
other telescope. From a scientili i;
viewpoint il is an experiment in GER
tain respects. But for the measure
ment OF the heat radiation of stars and
rhe spectroscopic study of the faintest
objects it will yield results common
surate with its size, according to
George Ellery Hale, director of the oh
.servatory. The instrument, contrary
to the impression held by some, is not
designed to settle the question regard
ing the canals of Mars. There is rea
son for hoping, however, that it will
extend the visual boundaries of the
universe by making possible the pho
tographing of many millions of stars
existing beyond the range of the most
powerful telescopes in present use. An
article in the April Popular Mechanics
Magazine gives the reader a glimpse
of some of the difficulties encOuntere
in the construction of the big tele-
scope. Four pages of pictures, all of
remarka BILE interest, accompany the ar

PHONES FUNERAL SERMON.
Preached at Long Distance Because
Storm Held Up Railways.

Fond du Lac, Wis. A funeral by
long distance telephone was conduct
ed the other day when the body Of the
Rev. Frank AIillar of Oakfield was sent
to its last resting place through the
drifts about the village where Mr.. Mil
lar had been pastor.
The storms tied up all railroads lead
ing to Oakield from here, branch line
of few miles in length, and with the
main line in trouble no effort was
made to resume traffic. The country
roads were also drifted so deep that
the village and countryside adjoining
had been isolated for half month.
The Rev. Robert S. Ingraham of this
city was to conduct the services over
the body of his Methodist colleague,
Ingraham being the district superin-
tendent. Trying to reach Oakfield by
road, he was stalled and worked his
way back to the nearest farmhouse,
where he arranged to read the service
by wire. A listener at the Millar home
took his words and repeated them to
the mourners.

AS the prayer ended the basement

The Heavy Cost of Vagrancy.

A speaker at one Of The Chautauqua
assemblies said few days ago that
there are now 100000 Migrants tramp
ing it over the United States. He fig
ared that this annual tax costs the
country s125,000,000 a year, to say
nothing OF the loss Of work through
the idleness Of so great a population
The vast army Of vagrancy draws
its recruits from every village Every
where there are boys who are dazzled
by the hollow Vaccinations of wander
ing life. Parents with restless and viii.
fal youngsters need to watch out very
carefully, if they wish to save theif
boys from the peril of the road
Years ago IL used TO be said that
dime novels lured boys to go tramp
ing. To-day il is laid on the movies.
But the same drift would be seen il
there were no dime novels and no
movies. These boys have a morbid,
nervous craving for excitement. and
the quiet life of home and school pals
on them.
Tdleness can not be cured by whaling
the boy. Something interesting must
be put into his life TO take up his az
tention. Get him into some club
where he can have a chance to play
baseball, football or basketball 4
good trimming" administered to the
hated athletic rivals from the next
town is an antidote of many rowing
humors
Many boys are allowed to acquire
the habit of loafiing around railroad
stations. This results in accidents.
Many a man who hobbies around
life on a wooden leg got it, not in war
or honest work on a factory machine
bat by hopping freights as boy.
But this is not the most dangerous
aspect Of the station loafing habit The
railroad lines are the great national
tramp thoroughfare. Tramps always
hang around railroad yards, looking
for guileless boys whom they lure on
the road 10 chase food and assist in
sDeaking thieving. The boy who loafs
around in these quarters is pretty sure
to encounter these temptations, at {
time when he has no conception OF
their peril.

Legs of a Snake.

The people Of Uruguay have some
queer ideas and superstitions. One of
them is that if one throws a live snake
into fire it will stick out its legs,
which it keeps concealed under its
scales. This idea probably arose from
the scales sticking outward as the
snake felt the heat.
