This flag came into being wileti the North German Confederacy was established) Nov 25; 1807, at tliri close of the Austro-Prussimi wdE Thé red mid white represent the commer cial prosperity of the batioti; while the blnck mid white symbolise the strong arm of the state prepared to protest and foster it. Nowhere have historical events caus ed so much change ill the standards rind tintloiial »»signs of ri country ns in 1''rahee. The oriflamme and the chape de St. Martin were succeeded at the end of the sixteenth century, when Henry III., the last of the house of Valois, came to the throne, by the white standard powdered fleur-de-lis. That in turn gave place to the famous tricolor which was introduced at the time of thé revolution, but tlie origin of that flag and its colors is a disputed question. Some maintain that the in tention was to combine iu the flag the blue of the chape de St. Martin, the red of the oriflamme and tlie white flag of tlie Bourbons. By others tlie colors are said to lie those of tlie city of Paris. Yet again other authorities assert that tiie flag is copied froni tlie shield Of tlie Orleans family as it appeared aP"r Philippe Egalité had knocked off tlie fleur-de-lis.—Kansas City Star.
