HEW STARS PLACED

IN THEJLS. FLAG With Addition of New Mexico and Arizona to Union Old Glory Changes. (National News Association) WASHINGTON, D. C, July 6. Two (stars were added to the national nag (yesterday denoting the addition of Arizona and New Mexico to the sisterhood of States. It has been some time since the two Territories became states, but under the law the change iin the flag could not be made until 'July 4, which is the Independence Day next following their admission to Statehood. The law governing the subject is contained in the act of congress approved April 4, 1818. That act provides las follows: "On the admission of a new state into the Union, one star shall be added to the Union of the flag and such ad'dition shall take effect on the 4th day of July the next succeeding such admission." This is the first time since 1890 that more than one star has been added at a time. In that year stars were added for the five new states of Idaho, Washington, Montana and North and South Dakota. Since July 4, 1896, the official arrangement of the stars in the blue field of the flag has been such as to permit the addition of more stars without destroying the symmetry of the approved design. In none of the acts of congress relating to the flag has the manner of arranging the stars been prescribed, i Before the date named there was a ,lack of uniformity in the matter. After (July 4, 1896, when Utah was admitted !to the Union, the forty-five stars in the I flag were arranged in six rows, the 'first, third and fifth rows having eight stars each, and the second, fourth and sixth rows, seven stars each. Pour years ago a rearrangement of the stars was made by a joint board of army and navy officers to meet the 'case of Oklahoma. Under that arrangement, which has prevailed until today, jthere were eight stars in the first, j third, fourth and sixth rows and seven stars in the second and fifth rows. The rearrangement to meet the ca-se of Arizona and New Mexico was a very simple matter. All that was necessary was the addition of a star each to the second and fifth rows, which makes six rows of eight stars each. Since the ; admission of any of the territorial possessions to Statehood is a matter of 'the distant future the present arrangement of the stars in the national flag is likely to remain unchanged for a 'long time to come.

One of the great natural treasures of Africa is the immense extra tropical forest that extends almost unbroken from the extreme southern end along the eastern highlands to the equator. There are gaps in it. and the trees change In kind somewhat with change' of latitude, but upon the whole it has the same character throughout. The altitude above the sea changes, regularly with decrease of latitude. Near the cape the forest grows at sea level ; in Natal and the Transvaal its altitude increases to 3,000. 4,000 and 5,000 feet, and on approaching the i equator it rises to 7.000 feet and final- , ly to 10.000 feet. In the equatorial hlghjands the growth Is very vigorous, and the forest is enriched with the pencil cedar of Abyssinia. Youth's Companion. Taking Care of the Heart. A physician writes: "Life would be , prolonged by a little more attention to the heart, by paying a little respect to i the most faithful servant we ever have. Much good might be done also if parents would teach their children the danger of overtaxing the heart. They should teacb them to stop and rest a few moments during their play when tbey begin to feel the violent throbbing of their hearts against the chest wall." Serious Complication. "I know how to sympathize with yon. Mrs. Polhemus," said Mrs. Lapsling. "My left eye was affected once Just as.yours is, and I had an awful time with It.

The Proof is in Richmond, Almost at Your Door. The public statement of a Richmond citizen is in itself strong proof for Richmond people, but confirmation strengthens the evidence. Here is a Richmond citizon who testified years ago that Doan's' Kidney Pills relieved sick kidneys, and now states the cure was permanent. Can any sufferer from kidney ills ask better proof? You can investigate. The case is right at home. Edgar S. Mote, mail carrier, 23 S. Twentieth street, Richmond, Indiana, says: "Doan's Kidney Pills brought such good results in my case several years ago that I gave a public statement recommending them. For a long time I suffered from backache and kidney trouble and the least cold settled in my kidneys, making my complaint worse. Hearing about Doan's Kidney Pills, procured a supply at A. G. Luken & Co.'s drug store and their use so completely cured me that I have had little trouble since. I will always hold Doan's Kidney Pills in high esteem." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.

The Theaters "In the Heart of Old Kentucky," with which the Murray players began their week end engagement yesterday, is built on the lines of "In Missouri," Augustus Thomas's popular drama of rural life in the latter state. It has a well worked out and 'definite plot and, of its class, is interesting in the depiction of certain types of character. The company has been greatly strengthened by the addition of Mr. Earl Symmons, who yesterday took the part of the Sheriff and whose role, as Interpreted by Mr. Symmons, dominated the presentation. Mr. Symmons showed himself possessed of considerable theatric acumen and genuine histrionic talents. Also of something with which neither is accorded other than a passing plaudit a magnetic stage presence and a voice of carrying power. In a play of this sort, however, care should be taken not to burlesque the comedy as undue accentuation minimizes genuine dramatic effects and throws the action out of balance. Dramatically this is one of the best plays so far put on by this company, the conception of the Sheriff being a distinct characterization and given a convincing interpretation through the medium of Mr. Symmons.

' In the center of the gulf of St. Lawrence the small group of Magdalen islands are populated by 3,000 or 4,000 lineal descendants of the Acadians under Champlain and De Monts, who were driven out of New France, Nova Scotia, by the English. Since the first settlement in 1763 generations of the same families have raised scanty crops in the valleys and fed sheep and cattle on the high conical hills which constitute a prominent feature of an insular landscape. Year after year men have gone out on the waters of the gulf in search of the cod, mackerel and lobsters on which a livelihood depends. They are simple, primitive people, I these natives of the Magdalens, laboring all the while under circumstances that are most discouraging. The archipelago contains twelve or thirteen distinct islands, including several grim rocks which are not inhabited and never will be. Odd Tramway Literature. The Liverpool tramway authorities have furnished two quaint additions to the literature of notices. Some years ago this notice was posted in the Liverpool cars: "Passengers are requested to pay no more pennies than the conductor in their presence punches holes in their tickets for." This was criticised, and another effort was mado and posted: "Passengers are requested to pay no more pennies than "for wbich the conductor in their presence punches holes -in their tickets." This, too, was pronounced a failure, and the officials concluded that language had not yet been invented which would express what they felt. But don't you know exactly what the official notice meant? London Standard. Candor by Accident. The hostess was so weary after an Inordinately long call from a bore that when he at last rose to go she was almost incapable of coherent speech, and her verbs in consequence changed places in her final effort at hospitality.

Amusements

THEATRICAL CALENDAR At The Murray. Lewis-Oliver Stock company, indefinite. Murray Theater Tonight. "Hearts of Kentucky," drew forth two large crowds matinee and night, July 4th. The moment the curtain goes up on the second act, the audience is impressed by the actuality of the thing, the types all carry conviction, the people who have never seen or heard of these Kentucky people are actually convinced that such characters do really exist in these rural and mountainous districts. Mr. Earl Symmons, a new member of the company, is an actor of much ability, and immediately appealed to the audience by the clever monner in which he portrayed his part of the sheriff. Miss Frost, as Kate, made much of her part. Gennett Theater. The world's greatest motion pictures of the races held at the Indianapolis speedway, last Decoration day, are now being shown at the Gennett theater. These pictures are highly instructive, and educational. At these races all records were broken for speed and endurance tests. The pictures themselves are works of art and should not be missed, as this will be the only opportunity that Richmond will have of seeing them. The prices are within the reach of all, ten cents being the price for any seat for matinee or night. Initials. Enrolling Officer What is your name? Recruit Owen Espy Casey.

Tine Coffltee Cam Is B.ecoiiMirojjj - A Seesffive Smifojjectt A couple of years ago one could get a pound of fairly decent coffee for from 15 to 25 cts. Now that same coffee costs from 25 cts. to 45 cts. per pound and a further raise of ten cents is in prospect. "There's a Reason" Four years ago Brazil found that in spite of the fact that it was producing over 90 of the coffee consumed in the United States, its rich planters were not squeezing as much money out of Americans as they could and the Brazilian government was not receiving enough revenue from a product that was one of that country's chiefest products. And so Brazil .determined to levy tribute upon rich and prosperous America, even as the British taxed our tea in olden days; only this modern type of piracy was engineered and executed in a kid glove way. Certain foreign capitalists (German, English and others) were called into consultation. Thejr devised a scheme called "valorization." They started by buncoing our American Congress into removing the import tax on coffee, and that done, Brazil immediately transferred the income to its own treasury by imposing an export tax. This was followed by perfecting - a system whereby the Brazilian government could control the output and the price of coffee. The net result has been that Brazil for the last three years has sold just what grades of coffee it wanted to sell, at any price it chose to fix; ard in consequence the Brazilian government has shared with a syndicate of foreign money kings a profit of Hundreds of Millions of Dollars, every cent of which has come from thepockets of the American People. This Is Where YOU Come In The average coffee drinker knows that coffee is a really harmful drink to most folks. Headache, biliousness, indigestion and other signs of an up-set liver, as well as heart irritation, nervousness and sleeplessness are too evident to most coffee drinkers to permit of their ignorance of that fact. Economy to Health and Purse, Suggests the new American Drink ftSJMIT P(QOT1M . made in the cup no boiling required Made of American wheat and American sugar cane, processed and combined in an American factory by American citizens, this pure food product is roasted just' like coffee and has a color and taste much resembling high-grade Java. A tin of Instant Postum instead of the next pound of coffee from your grocer will quickly prove "There's a Reason" If your grocer does not have Instant Postum, send his name and address and a 2 -cent stamp to cover postage, and we will mail you a 5-cup sample tin. ,

"You were once content with a much simpler affair." "Of course. Nobody wants to waste more than a dollar on a clock that wakes him up aud tells him when to go to work. But when it wakes him up and reminds him that he doesn't hare to go to work he feels more friendly and liberal." Washington Star. A Woman's Reason. "Why," asks the Inquisitive person, "do you enjoy having some one tell you that you are pretty when you know yon are not? Does it make yon believe that you are?" "No," she answers readily. "But It makes me believe that he believes I am." Judge's Library.

SIGNALS TO THE PITCHER.

Catcher Robinson Kept His Secret For Twenty Years. There was one catcher who worked a long time before any one caught his signals. That wss Wilbur Robinson. He backstopped twenty years without ever having sn opposing player discover what he was signaling for. One day St- Louis was playing Baltimore. Robinson was catching for the Orioles. Harry Kane, a St. Louis pitcher, was lying on the bench while his team was at bat. Kane suddenly sat up. He said be could see Robinson's signs. Joe Sugden was with SL Louis. Sugden crawled over to where Kane had been. He could plainly see Robinson's signs. He interpreted the system in a few moments and put the St Louis coacher wise. Sugden, lying on the bench, used a program for a fan. When Robinson signaled for a fast ball Sugden wared the program and the man on the coaching line yelled. "Come onr to the batter. Any time Robinson asked for a curve Sugden lowered the fan and the coacher yelled "Nail itr to the batter. Robinson knew they were getting the signs, but he could not guess how. And the funny part of it was that St. Louis after getting Robinson's signs after every other club he played against had failed to get them was beaten by Baltimore. The Difficult Persian Tongue. Of the difficulties in the language of Persia a traveler writes: "The words one uses in a letter are almost entirely different from those used conversationally, and those in an ordinary prose history are again different Then it is almost Impossible to distinguish the tenses and. lastly, the adjective is generally indistinguishable from the substantive, and the link between an adjective and the term which. It qualifies is the same as the sign of the possessive. For Instance, the text This is my beloved son may be read in the Persian Bible This is the son of my beloved without the slightest violence to the grammar." Michigan.
