 Here they are:
 The proper time for raising the flag is sunrise or after.
 The flag must be lowered at sunset.
 It must not be allowed to touch the ground.
 It is a mark of disrespect to permit the flag to fly throughout the night.

UnhappY in Friendship.

Many people expect too much from
their friends. They may themselves
be so thoroughly genuine and sincere
that they expect all their friends to be
the same. and when they discover
little faults in their idols they feel the
disappointment most acutely. Do not
pitch your standard too high, then you
are less likely to have your idol shat
tered. Try to remember that friends
will never disappoint us If we observe
two simple rules: "a to find out

HOW TO LIVE BEYOND YOUR
MEANS

1t isn't easy at first but you'll soon
get the knack of it. If you have any
pride at all you will not let people
see that you are only earning what
ever you are earning. You can do
this by adding up your bills at the
end of the month, subtracting this
sum from your monthly income and
discovering that you still have as
much to spend as you did before you
substracted. Perhaps we'd better go
over that again to be sure that you
understand. First, add up your
bills. On second thought, it will
save you time to tear rather than add
up the bills. And remember that no
matter what sort of a car you have
you should have bigger one.

Chronic Bronchitis.
By JOHN B. HUBER, A. M, M. D.

This Is an attack OF the grippe or
of acute bronchitis that has been let
to run on weeks and months after 1t
should have been cleared up; and
then the Inflammation of "the tubes"
becomes chronic. The trouble Is apt
also to go along with other lung af-
fections-asthma or consumption,
heart, artery and kidney ailments,
alcoholism, indigestion, rheumatism
and govt. Workmen who must con-
stantly breathe in irritating vapors
are very subject. After fifty years
this disease is easily developed. 1t
thrives in damp, cold and changeable
weather. The sufferer is short of
breath on exertion; and he is easily
exhausted; his chest is apt to feel
tight. He has, however, little pain
and rarely fever. His cough varies
with the state of the atmosphere and
with the season; in the summer there
may be none at all, or only morn
ing and evening cough. The general
health Is then pretty fair, but with
the coming of winter the disease
again becomes prominent. At all
times there will be in each case the
symptoms also of the associated dis
ease.
The spittle may be scanty. Or 1t
may be excessive, especially in old
and feeble folk and those with val
yular heart disease. In such sufferers
sudden death from asphyxia may
have to be feared. Or the expectora-
tioH may have putrid odor; and
then there is very likely indeed to be
an abscess or a gangrene or tuber-
culous cavity in the lung; in such
patients death may have to be feared
from pneumonia or some brain trou-
