Oldest FLAG.

Our royal standard, In which some
changes will possibly be made as a re-
suit of Irelands new status, Is not so
venerable as the Danish royal stand
ard-the oldest national flag In exist
ence. The white cross on a red ground
Of the Danebrog Is traditionally traced
to a vision seen In the sky by a Danish
king, Vlademar the Victorious, when
leading his army against the Esthoni-
ans near Reval in 1919. According to
one version of the legend, the blood
red flag fell from heaven into the
Danish ranks There is no doubt that
about the date OF this battle 1t was
adopted as the Danish flag and that
II had the religious associations which
belonged to most national standards
in medieval times.-Montreal Family

ALL TOOK PUFFS
Smoking by No Means Always
Confined to Men.
IN oIden Times Women, and Even
Children, Participated in Enjoy
nent Of the WEED"

William Penn has q fine record In the
history books. Controversy and eOloni-
al muck raking has not sullied his
name But William Penn smoked with
the women. He smoked with women
in America. No, not In sylvan privacy
in small select party down near the
City Of Brotherly Love.
He smoked with them right out In
public. In fact, they took pufs from
the same pipe. Twice at least did this
happen. says a New York Sun writer.
Yes. Of course IL was q peace pipe;
a Calumet which he smoked with the
big chiefs and the braves and the
squaws Of the tribes that were selling
him land. friendly social time was
had by all and he made q fine trade
for a first-class piece Of land. paying
for IL in part with 800 tobacco pipes,
100 hands Of tobacco and 20 tobacco
boxes
In the old country in the good old
days the women took to smoking as
quickly as did the men AT least the
ladies 81 the courts did. In France
tobacco was the special possession Of
the queen mother, who received some
plants from her ambassador in POrtu-
gal, Jean Slcot This Is the real orig
inal chap Of Lady Nicotine fame,
The weed was called '-the queens
herb. incense" ''Yerbs Santa pan
acee.~ and half a dozen other names
Of the same sort In the English court
the ladies as well as the men followed
the fashion introduced by Sir Walter
Raleigh Tobacco smoke was consid-
cred the best medicine for all Ills, and
so late as the time Of Charles II boys
were logged at Elton for refusing to
learn TO smoke.
OF course, II has not all been plain
sailing for the smokers. So gentle
and mild a punishment as a S25 fine
or short sojOurn in that gray castle
with the towers and battlements and
the bridge Of signs that we call the
ToTnbs would have been considered
lsughable by those who In earlier days
were really out after the smokers.
Church and state alike have gone right
after them.
Imprisonment, accommodation from
the church, the death penalty. whip

have all Of them been on the statute
books Of one or another country Of
Europe in the course Of attempts to
grub out this habit, root and branch,
ladies and gentlemen alike. No less
person than king Of England wrote
publicly for the ants.
He calls 1t "loathsome to the eye,
hurtful to the nose, harmful to the
brain, dangerous to the lungs and In
the black sinking fume thereof, near
est resembling the horrible Stygian
smoke Of that pit which Is bottom

He was not doing any sharpshooting
at the women. He was leading the
firing squad against the whole tobacco
brigade.
