A Little Lesson In Patriotism Let our object bo our country, our whole country, and nothing but our country." Daniel Webster. Clen.

Scott was still a young man when lu WlNHKLn SCOTT. tho war of 1812 he directed at Queens town, on tbo Niagara Itlvcr, a series of engagements in which wero blend ed, according to one historian, the most perfect plan of arrangements, the most undaunted courage, the most disas trous defeat and the most triumphant success. The battle of Lundy's Lane brought Scott Into action again. Although he was wounded early In the engagement, he fought on, gallantly charging the enemy as they advanced. War after war followed In the ca reer of the soldier until Anally tho Mexican war brought to him bis lat est glory. It was ono of the most plc turcsquo campaigns of history, daring lu conception nnd excittlon. Despite his years, lien, Scott served In the Civil War until ho was no long er able to bear tho hardships of the camp and tho field.

Few persons, except the small boy who Is going to be one when be gets old enough, realize the many dangers firemen face every day of tlielr lives, but statistics prove that only a very small number die a natural death a falling wall or other part of a burn ing building generally carrying death to some brave fire fighter after he baa spent the greater part of bis life on duty. Just think how often a fire man Is called upon to enter a build ing full of dense smoke, to rescue some person who has already been overcome, and the wonder Is that he Is not supplied with some protection for his own life. There does not seem to be any reason why be should not for Instance, wear an apparatus like the one shown In the Illustration. He could then with absolute safety to himself enter any burning building, wlth an added chanco of saving any lives that mlcht be endancered. The upper portion Is made In the form of a hood or mask of alr-tlght and fire proof fabric, to be placed over the head of the wearer, with glass clos ures for openings for the eyes. There Is also n cap opposite the mouth, which closes against air from without, but opens for the discharge of exhaled air which has been breathed. Reservoirs which contain compressed nlr or oxy gen for sustaining life are attached to the back of the wearer by straps, and connected by a tube to the back 0 the hood, with valves for regulating the supply. The compressed air can thus be readily supplied from the res ervolrs to the Interior of tho hood, to be breathed by the wearer. After en terlng a building tilled with muoke fireman using this apparatus could re main for some time, while his hands and arms would be free. Charles 13. Chapln. of Berkeley.

What those were like In the early historic period we know from an examination of Egyptian monuments, from a study of (Jreek vases or from Etrurian or Itoman an tiquities that are stored In European museums. The Egyptian deities ore seated generally on granite blocks, the backs of which are raised a few Inches only, giving a distant resemblance to a chair. That the Egyptians had seats more comfortable for domestic use Is possible, but we have every reason to suppose, nltiiough they iossessed a high degree of civilization, that their Idea of homo comforts was not that of modern times.
