So niueli has been written concerning the origin of the American llag, our cherished banner of the "Stars and Stripes." permit me to furnisl the following data, which an authentic and historically true, us the history of the United States flag: The idea-of smifUiirdr&f'iffnT ated with the Egyptians at m early aw. The Crusaders ad (led the cross to their banners. The union of the three crossc of St. George, St. Andrew ami St. Patrick marks, lirt, the tin Ion of England and Scotland in to the kingdom of Great Drait ain, and then this kingdom with Ireland. This is termed tin great ur ion finjr of Great Brit- am, and was brouirht by tlx colonists to America. "When the thirteen colonies began to feel the iron presMm of British tyranny and domesti rule, they nlaced under then banners a rattlesnake, cut in thirteen pieces, representing tin thirteen original colonies, with the motto, "join or die." When these colonies became more unit ed in their purposes of resist since to Piiitish enslavement. they placed on their lia" si well formed rattlesnake, in the atti tude of about to strike, with the motto, "don't tread on me." Dr. Franklin, seeing this em-ble-m on one of the drums of that day, writes as follows: "On inquiry, and from study, I learn ed that the r.ncients considered the serpent an emblem of wis dom, and in some attitudes, of endless duration. Also thstt countries sire often represented by animals peculiar to that j country. I he rattlesnake is found nowhere but in America! Her eye is exceedingly bright and without eyelids -emblem of vigilance. She never begins an sittack and she never surrenders --emblem of imignanimity aud courage. She never wounds ev en her enemies, until sifter gen erously giving them warning not to treat I on her which is j emblematical of the spirit of the people who inhabit her country. She appears appar ently wesik and defensive, but her weapons aro nevertheless formidable. Her poison is the nece.-sary means for the dio-es-tion of her food, but certsiin des truction to her emeniies, show ing the power of American re sources. Her tliirtcen rattles, the only part wWch increases in number, arc distinct from esich other, and yet so united that they cannot be disconnected without breaking them to pieces, showing the impossibility of an American republic without the union of States." How marvel ously prophetic. 4kA single ratJe will give no sound alone, but the ringing of the thirteen together is suflicient to startle the boldest man alive. She is beautiful in youth, which increaseth with her age, her tongue IS forked, SIS 1 1 10 lighten " . , mir and her abode IS SUUOIIg till Pl nt u IWK" The next form of the United I C't..i... ... i . .....I oi.uea was inu Miirs aim snipes. Its proportions are perfect when properly inside, the first and hist stripes being red. with alternate stripes of white. The blue field for the stars is the square of the widfli of seven stripes. On the 14th of June, 1777 the Conti nental congress resolved, "That the fhig of the United States be thirteen stripes, alternate red and white, and that tho Union be tliirtcen white stars on a blue Held, representing a new con stellation." Previous to this, however, our national banner was the union Hag, combining I the crosses of St. Cieomv and St. Andrew. The stars and stripes were infurled for the lirst time at :he battle of Saratogo on the iceasion of the surrender of The stars of the llag repre sent an idea taken from the con stellation Lyra, which signifies 'isirmony. The blue of the field was-taken from the banner of he Covenanters of Scotland ikewise significant of the league . j f.. i fe md covenant of I nite( Co on - v-wiuu :es against oppression, and in- -mentally involving viVilence, perseverance and justice. The -tars were disposed in si circle, symbolizing the perpetuality of' the Tnion, the circle being the ign of eternity. Doth the thirteen stripes and the stars showed the number of United Colonies, and denoted the sub ordination of the states to, and their dependence upon the Un ion, as well as equality among themselves. The whole wsts a ' blending of the previous ban ners, namely the red flsig of the army and the white flao- of the navy. The red color, which in the days of Roman glory was the signal of defiance, denoted daring and the white purity. On the 13th of Januaty, 17flL, by an act of Congress, the liaf was altered to fifteen red and white stripes and fifteen stars. On the 14th of April, 1818, congress again altered the llag by returning to the original thirteen stripes and fifteen stars. sis the adding of a new strins for each additional state would t r . - make the thig too unwieldy. The new star is added to the fhig on the 4th of July foilownigthe ulmission of each stsite into the Union. Ex. Don't Forget the Widow. A Dakota retail dry goods man hsid died, and at the fuiural ser vice in the church a good deacon arose and remarked: ' "If there are any friends of the deceased who have anything to ssiy we shall take a mornful pleas ure in listening to them." Xo one responded for two or three minutes and then the wid ow got up. "I haven't much to ssiy on this sad occasion." she said, "but I would like to announce that bus iness will be carried on at the old stand by the heartbroken widow of the deceased and our spring stock of goods can't be ex celled in price and quality in this neck of the woods, and 1 hope you'll not forget the widow or the fatherless. Amen." Washington Critic. Yineyardists and orehardists in California are already fear ing that it will be impossible to gather this year's fruit crop. Agents are in Chinatown secur ing Chinese to work on con tracts. 'A plan to import, neg- roes is meeting with favor. 'What a labor-saving invention the type writer is! Don't you ' find it a great convenience:" "Convenience? Drat 'em! ; They marry off faster than I can fill their places." "Water is a medicine." read a toper in a nanitsiry journal. 'Next some fool will be advocat ing water as a beverage," he ad ded, with a look of disgust. Wife Women arc often criti cised for wearing loud colors. What would you call a loud col or? Husband Yeller, I suppose. A Champion Husband and Father of the Country. The other day Captain Worth and Judge Williams rode out to the fann of the former. Wliilo sitting in the buggy in front of the cabin of William Brown, a colored tenant, the following con versation took place: "There seems to be a good many children .about Vifrn Wit.

"Ain't had but six, sah." "Onlv six?" "'es san dat's dl." Ve claim that Upsoi son furnishes the champion husband and fath er. If any other country can beat William Brown let it trot out its man. Upson (Ga.) Times. Revenge is Sweet. The cold, haughty, purse bound merchant prince who treats his ribbon-counter gentle man and gentleman's nrderware saleshulies with mere civility or chilling indifference had better I be aware. The time may come j I when their positions may bo re versed. 'See here, Jinks," said one of these arrogant millionaires one dsty to a ninety-pound ribbon counter clerk, "you want to at tend to business, better, young man. and not waste so much time llirting with that red-head - ed underware girl across tho aisle, mind that." Enraged and humiliated, the down-trodden ribbon-counter re f vows and seeks revenue. His time soon comes, aye, that night? The purse-proud, cold-blooded merchant goes to the theatre. He buys an admission ticket and stands up, being of an eco nomical turn of mind. "Let us pass, sir," gays a calm, cold voice at his side. He looks down and beholds the ribbon-counter clerk in the maw nificence of full dress, with the underware girl in flowing robes and sixteen button kids hanging to his arm. The eves of the two men meet, but there is no sign of recognition on the part of the ribbon counter clerk, on ly a cold, haughty fixed stare as he passes proudly on to the S3 sesits reserved for him and the underware girl, while the snub bed and humitiatcd merchant prince stands on in the midst of his own bitter reflections.--Detroit Free Press.
