A flag with five horizon t a! stripes of five different colors was. however, used by the provisional p)verninent, which was set up f't Nanking on January 1, 1D12. But when tup north and south were united on February 12 at the abdication of the Mam-hu dynasty, the yellow dragon finally pa-sed out of existence, and the rnfnbow, or five-colored flag, became the national ensign of the newly established republic, representing the unity of the five great races which live within its territory. The five colors are rod, yellow, blue, white and black, representing respectively the Chinese (Hanivn), the Manehus, the Mongols, the Mohammedans, and the Tibetans. The five stripes of five different colors are also interpreted to mean the five fundamentals of Confucius, namely, benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and faith. The unique feature of the Chinese national Hag is that its five horizontal stripes of five different colors signify not only the unity butalso the equality of the five great races brought tinder the republican regime. It proclaim; to the world that the citizens of the republic are now firmly united under a democratic government, cooperating to safeguard the interests and promote the welfare of the Chinese nation. Fcxy Old Gentleman. The engine of a passenger train broke down between stations and as an express was due and it was not certain that it could be stopped before reaching the spot, the passengers were ordered to leave the train immediately. They all did so with the exception of an old man who kept his seat. The passengers thought he must be mad, hut he put his hand into his pocket and pulled out an insurance ticket. 'ITa, h,a " he cried, "you thought I was TU'jre simple- than I am. A nice tiring for the company to sell me bu insurance ticket and then expect me to run away from the first sign of danger. Xo : Here I am and here I shall stay, ami if the company has to pay up itJs their lookout and not mine." House of Paper. When you think of a paper house you tii ink of China and Japan. lut that is not the only place where such material lias been used in buildings. A paper house was once erected in Hamburg. It was used as a restaurant. Its walls were made of double layers of paper stitched on frames and impregnated with a fire and waterproof solution Tim roof and walls were fastened together by means of bolts and hinges, so thr.t it was collapsible.' The dinir.groom was capable of holding 150 people. There were 22 windows, four skylights and the heating was effected by a couple of isolated stoves. Boston r, st. Sweet Memory!

"There is something I want you to bring homo, and I've forgotten what it is. but I think IT! remember it if you sing." The good-natured husband complied, and the charming wife said: "f remember now. It's a file I want." Serbia to Build Lcng Canal. According to a news item in the Ath.ens Progress the Serbian government lias decided to construct a canal from the Danube to Salot;iki. The canni is to begin at the confluence of the Danube and the Morava, follow the course of the Morava in Serbia, then join the valley of the Vardar, following the river to the vicinity of Sn'.onikh The total length of the sal will be COO kilometers (373 railes). How True! The - mathematics teacher was trying to impress her class with the necessity of putting more time on mathen'atics.

I:re, Elizabeth Frazer writes ia the Saturday Evening-Post, were the graveyards of their homes, village after village, as dead as the nien. ' The cnly difference was that the soldiers had been buried underground, while these ghastly mutilated wrecks still remained exposed to view. There was more of this kind of scenery and more and more and more. And at last so soon does the ni.'nd become sated by mere flat external spectacles of horror I began to feel welling up Inside of me a vague irritation against all these graveyards of gaping mutilated specters of what had once been human habitations, for being so monotonous, so repetitionai, so drably, blankly, impassively the same. I wanted them to get better or I wanted them to get worse or I wanted them to be blotted clean of? the map. These mutilated corpses of towns, with their stark immobility, their contorted postures, their shattered members lying rigidly outstretched on the pavement, began to get on my nerves. They had the same stiff fixity, the same grotesque sprawl that one notes in a human corpse frightfully mangled by a shell. I had heard of men blown to pieces in battle and unrecognizable, even their identification plates gone. Here were their counterparts in hamlets. The lieutenant, searching his map, murmured doubtfully: "It might be A or it might be B . It's hard to say." These nameless ones I put into a list all by themselves and called them X. But presently I gave it up. It was too much like trying to count the volume of water in a reservoir by means of an eye dropper. GOT HOMES AT S F.I ALL COST. Fortunate Purchasers Profited by the Dismantling of Government-Built Munition Plant. To select a dwelling from a large stock of samples, buy It "over the counter" at a bargain price, and then pack it on a motor truck to be sent home, is a novel solution of the house hunting problem, says Popular Mechanics Magazine. That is literally what has been happening recently, however, in a number of communities where munition-plant housing facilities are being dismantled by the government. All the purchaser needs Is a vacant lot, of course, and a foundation for his new home. - Near Cincinnati more than 200 fourroom houses were sold in two days at the remarkable price of $200 each, their original cost to the government having been over $1,500. Purchasers of these houses have been able to get concrete block foundations built for an average price of $223, and to secure truck and trailer delivery within five miles for $120, making a total cost of $533 for a well-built home. Watermelon Chemistry. Commercial chemistry, applied to the watermelon, now plays a large part In delivering melons to the northern consumer at a reasonable price. The chemistry employed, says the Scientific American, is used In making a certain pasts that the shipper applies to the stem end of the watermelon. Before the paste was invented whole carloads of watermelon frequently decayed. Now the shipper takes two copper or enamel-ware vessels, and in one Ox them dissolves four ounces of bluestone in two pints of boiling water, and in the other three ounces of powdered alum in one pint of water. To the solution of powdered alum he then adds four and onedmlf ounces of rye flour, End mixes the whole until he has a pinootli paste. 'When the bluestone Is dissolved that solution Is poured info the paste, and the mixture is thoroughly stirred. The paste is then boiled for five minutes, cooled and strained, colored with pistachio green and sealed in air-tight Jars. Where Ho Did HI Reading. Hampton What did you do last night?

AfiD HE GOT AWAY WITH IT1

Further Proof That There U Much Virtue in the Application cf a Little Soft Soap. The hands of the clock were pointing to the hour of 12, midnight. She had been waiting two hours for him. Her anger, from a gentle simmering, gradually increased in temperature until the boiling point was reached. She was ready for him and as he entered the room she opened her mouth to pour out the accumulated contents of the reservoir of her wrath. But before she could get out a word, he said : "Look here, darling, d'ye think marriage Is a lottery?" She was so surprised at the question that she could only murmur that she didn't know. "It ain't!" he said. "The other fellows at the club have been arguing that it is that's why I'm late. But I said, 'How can marriage be a lottery when a fellow has only to look round him to pick out the first prize same as I did?' Xo lottery about that." She brought him his slippers, and five minutes later she was opening a box of sardines for him with his best razor. And he winked solemnly at the canary, and enlarged Inwardly on the virtues of soft soap. London Tit-Bits. Airplanes Without Pilots. Toward the end of the war a number of French officers carried out a series of remarkably successful experiments with wireless-steered airplanes. In a number of bombing planes manipulation of the pilot's controls and command of the motor were effected by means of electromagnets actuated by Hertzian waves coming from a point outside the flying craft. In the first experiments, says the World's Work, a pilot, who stood on the ground and used a low-powered transmitting set, caused the plane to maneuver at a distance of several kilometers. In September, 1918, a pilotless plane, equipped with an automatic stabilizer, completed a circular flight of sixty-two and a half miles without being capsized by wind or cross currents. In a later experiment, which employed an ingenious wave-selector and a simple frequency-modifier, the officers controlled several pilotless planes with a single transmitter. Youth's Companion. Learning About Nitrogen. Recent experiments with the alpha ray have led to the discovery, says the English Meehaxic,fuid World of Science, that-nitrogen, wh'fh for a century and a half has been regarded as an element, may not be an element et all, but a compound of hydrogen and helium. It Is an interesting coincidence that Doctor Dalton, according to the now accepted account, was led to his theory of the atomic structure of matter by a study of the physical properties of the atmosphere. Sir Ernest Ilutherford, by experiments on the same gases, now sees In each of Dalton's atoms of nitrogen an atomic system in which two distinct elements play a part, and nitrogen Itself apparently is to disappear as an element. Youth's Companion. Creed Symbolizes Good Citizenship. According to their "creed," North Dakota agricultural club boys and girls believe in club work because of the opportunity it gives them to become useful citizens and to serve their country and state, to which service they are willing to dedicate themselves. The creed also explains why they believe in the four cardinal purposes of club work symbolized in the 4-II club insignia. They believe. in training the head to give them power to think and plan and reason; in training the heart that they may be kind, sympathetic, and true ; in training the hands to enable them to be helpful, skillful and useful; and in caring for health, to give them strength to enjoy life, to resist disease, and to be more efficient. Exchange. His Memory Faulty. A good working memory la no trick, providing you have a good memory for associations, which Is really tha trick. A Kansas City man planned out an infallible method for remembering his wife's birthday. It comes on the 7th of the month. "Now, HI remember that," ha said, "by associating it with dice think of dice, then 'Come' seven V Ah, that's It seven. I can't forget It." The next year passed, and his instinct told hira his wife's birthday was imminent. "Now, what's that date?" the husband asked himself. - "Oh, yes, I was to think of dice. Dice craps eleven 1 That's It December 11." And that's why his wife's crying spell which began on the Tth didn't end ustil the 11th. Kansas City Star. Tha $t!n;!eU Man.
