There is no record that any such or­
der as “Put none but Americans on
guard" was issued by Washington.
Those who quote it do not know when
it w h s supposed to have been Issued.
Rut It is n fact that on April 30, 1777,
in an order Issued at Morristown, N. J..
for reorganizing the Improperly called
"Washington’s bodyguard” he did say
that he thought that uien having an in­
terest in the country would be less
likely to prove traitors than foreigner».
Tlie order continued, “You will, there-
fore, send me none but Americans."
Washington directed that this prefer­
ence for Americans should not be made
known, ns he feared it might excite
the many foreigners in the army.—E x­

When the frost fairies have a mate­
rial ready for original design they often
produce in the hours of darkness most
exquisite decorations.
The window
panes are their drawing paper, and the
window frames serve as picture frames
on those particular occasions. There
are said to lie no less than a thousand
forms of snow crystals, every one of
them of the finest finish and of unim­
peachable symmetry. Some are like
the patterns in lionlton lace, while oth­
ers are elaborated with geometrical
patterns so complex that it is difficult
to analyze them. But on the window
panes the frost pictures are by no
means confined to what are "standard
patterns” in snowflakes, but show the
most various and dainty schemes of
ornament. Some are like starry flow­
I ers. set with stars In the center and
| with starry shoots and comets flying
into space around them. Others take
the shape of leaves arranged in set
form by some human designers. The
endive pattern is among the most beau­
tiful, the curves and “motive” being
often
scarcely distinguishable from
