San Francisco. The Stars and Strips were first raised over San Francisco 68 years ago, July 9, 1846. California was then Mexican territory and the metropolis of the Pacific coast was a little village which bore the name of Yerba Buena The United States ship Portsmouth, a wooden vessel of 1,022 tons, built at Portsmouth navy yard in 1843, effected the capture of Yerba Buena, When Commander John D. Sloat, commanding the Pacific squadron, re eived news of the outbreak of war with Mexico, he sent word to Captain John B. Montgomery, in command of the Portsmouth, ordering him to take Yerba Buena. Sloat was then at Mon terey. His message reached Montgom ery on the evening of July 8, and at 8 o'clock on the morning of the 9th, Montgomery landed at Yerba Buena with 70 seamen and marines, raised his flag in the public square, posted the commodore's proclamation on the flagstaff, and addressed the people. The landing was affected without any show of opposition from the Mexicans. Montgomery "earnestly recommended" that the people "continue in the quiet pursuit of their proper occupations, in which, under the shadow of that glori ous banner there can be no fear of oppression or undue interruptions." Two days later Montgomery reported to his chief that the flag was flying at "Sutter's fort on the Sacramento, at Bodega, on the coast, and at Sonoma, as well as this place." "A little later Admiral Sir George F. Seymour, in command of the Brit ish ship Collingwood, arrived at Yerba Buena, and, seeing the Stars and Stripes, cried in anger, "Damnation! I am too late." The United States, Germany and France, in the order named, are the world's greatest consumers of coffee. DAILY FASHION HINTS Kl'fcijs i lilt 6,625, Lady's Dress.

Not only In the rural press does, Inline writing" of the old-fashioned sort survive for the impresHing of minds naive and the amusoment of cold-hearted cynics. In a magazine to which, whatever else may be denied, metropolitan origin as well as large (Circulation right here must be grant ed, one runs across this month, with (whatever emotion one chooees to feel, ithis imperially purple patch oi^a story: of humble life: "Off toward the east, dawn trembled ion the edge of eternity and. sent up, as if the earth were lighting tho hori iJBon, a pearlish light shotted with pink. |A smattering of stars lingered and 'trembled as though cold. They paled dawn grew pinker, and the black vil lage, with Its naked trees standing darkly against the sky, sent up wispy spirals of smoke. A derrick in the Jagged bowl of the quarry moved its giant arms slowly, and a steam whis tle blatted." If it weren't for the dreadful word "blatted," with Its barnyard associa tions thick upon it, that might pass, with folk decently kind, as pretty good—or if not as good, at least as pretty, which is always something. Indeed, any word IOSB dreadful, even by only a little, could have been for given by critics not morbidly cap* ticms, for the sake of the reference to 9tars that "trembled as though cold" while they lingered in the dawn. It took a real poet to see and say ,that, and the reader to whom it doesn't glre a bit of a thrill by its beautiful' ^accuracy will live and die an Old Pig. But "blatted!" Let the Justly cele "brated friend of the justly oeiebrated Mabel speak up—"Ain't it awtul!"— toew York Times. Centenary of Josephine's Deaftli. The ex-Em press Josephine, divorced wife of Napoleon, died 100 years ago! at Malmaison. Josephine was born in, the island of Martinique and lived there until her fifteenth year, when she went to Paris and was presented at court. Shortly after she married Viscount Alexandre de Beauharnals, then a ma jor In the French army. The couple bad two children—Eugene, afterward Viceroy of Italy, and Hortense, future Queen of Holland and mother of Na poleon III. At the beginning of the jFYench revolution Beauharnals was made comrpander-in-chief of the French army. Then, like so many oth er persons in high positions, he fell a victim to the guillotine and his wife parrowly escaped the same fate. The marriage of Josephine and Napoleon, took place in 1796, when Napoleon was Just climbing to fame. In 1809 they were divorced so that Napolean might) wed the Archduchess Maria Louisa of Austria. Is is one of the ironies of history that the next Bonaparte whoi came to the throne of France as Na poleon III was Josephine's and not Napoleon's grandchild. Stutterers Talk Too Fast. Poctor Marage of Paris told thei A^adamie des Sciences recently that stuttering—which is an intermittent nervous condition of all the sound producing organs, lungs, larynx and mouth—can be cured by making the, victim understand his affliction and the means by which he can rid him-, self of it. Doctor Marage showed moving pic tures of the mouths of normal and stuttering persons and of the vibra tions of their voices. These show the stutterers speak their words threa times as rapidly as norma* persons, that the words are separated by in tervals only half as long, md that 'there is no division of syllables. The stutterer talks rapidly because^ he breathes badly and Is always out of breath. Therefore, the first treat ment for him is to teach him to jbreathe correctly. This can be done, Iby exercises that any physician should 'be able to devise. A Clearing House for Workers. i One of the most interesting features of the East side of New York, is its great labor market, which stands ready at the beck and call of who-i ever has the price to hire. This fea-, ture IB to be found in Seward park. Whether it be desired to hire a brick layer, a tailor, a maaon or a plumb er, paperhanger, painter or decorator, men skilled or unskilled in these trades can be quickly garnered upon a tour of the park. Sitting on benches or gathered in groups are men equip ped with their tools waiting the beck and call to go to work. Here they gather almost with the rising sun and remain in t'o park until sv^idown, un less fortune smiles upon them and gives them work for a da/, week or month. Wallops as Nerve Cure. The wallop for treating certain nervous disorders was cited with a slight show of favor by Dr. A. W. Ives in a clinic on neurology before the alumni snd students of the Detroit College of Medicine and Surgery. The wallop cure was used by the husband of an unfortunate young wo man who had become overwrought through a misfortune, and who would drop Into hallucinations which would be followed by violent and uncon trollable demonstrations. Doctor Ives recommended cold water applied early In the periods, to distract the mind. The husband went beyond orders, wet a towel in cold water, knotted it tightly and "biffed" his spouse every time she showed lack of self-restraint. She was soon cured. Lipton Forgot He Was Ashore. London Telegraph: Sir Thomas Lip ton was one of 45 defendants who were summoned at Southampton the other day for exceeding the speed limit. It was said that Sir Thomas drove his car down Portsmouth road at 37 miles an hour. When stopped Sir Thomas said that he had been to Gos port that day to try the Shamrock and he was sailing so fast on the new boat, where there was no speed limit, that subsequently in his car he did not realize that he was traveling at such a pace. He was fined ten pounds and costs. FOB mAW aawa JUSAB. sua wsmm SUNDAY SCHOOli Lesson II.—Third Quarter, Fi July 12, 1914. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES, I Text of the Lesson, Mark X, 32-||i Memory Verses, 43-45—Golden Teitf, Mark x, 45—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. 8te«rns. The first part of this lesson concern ing His death and resurrection is Eft corded in Matthew, Mark, and Luke, but the second part, concerning the request of James and John and their mother. In Matthew and Mark only. The words "In the way" of verses 17, 32,52 xl, 8 Acts ix, 2, 17, 27, and elsewhere, while they may generally mean nothing more than on the rond, are suggeRtlve of Ps. i, 6 cxlx, 1 John xiv. 6, and make one think of the way of pence, the way of the Lord (Luke i, 79 lii, 4), and of what It really means, to follow Him in the way. This is the third time that He spoke plainly of H1b sufferings and death, and resurrection but, although IDs words »eem so plain to us, they understood none of these things (Luke xviii, 34), because they knew not the Scriptures concerning His death apd resurrection (John xx, 9), having their own thoughts about the kingdom, just as many today know nothing of the second coming of Christ, the distinction between the chuivh of tho present age and the king dom of the next age and the ages to come, because they will not take heed to what is written hi the prophets con cerning the Son of Man and the king dom to be set up at His coming id glory to judfre the nations and to reign In righteousness (Isa. xxxii, 1, 17 xxxiv, 8 xxxv, 4, 10), but persist In thinking that the kingdom is within us and that all that the great worjc of re demption Is for is to deliver people from hell and get them to heaven. This is the age of a kingdom post poned because of a rejected Christ ani® of gathering out from all nations ai people to reign with Him, but who must be content now to suffer with Him, live separate from this present evil age, not conformed to it, but so» manifesting in it the meekness, lowll* neas and love of Christ that "we shall show something of His life in these mortal bodies and win people to Him. The Holy Spirit has been given espe cially In this age to testify of a cruci fied, risen and ascended Christ, who Is waiting at the Father's right hand un til the number of His elect, waiting1, suffering ones, shall have been com pleted, when He will take us to Him Belf, reward us for service, appoint our places in His kingdom and bring OS back with Him -to reign (Acts xvi, 13 18 Thess, iv, 16-18 Col. lii, 4 Rev. v, 9, 10). This is no time for a believer to be seeking great things for himself or his church or his denomination or ciety or in any way to make himself a name, but with all lowliness and meek ness and long suffering and patience walk worthy of Him who has called lis nnto His kingdom and glory (Eph, iv, 1. 2 Col. i, 10,11 I Thess. ii, 12), who came not to be ministered unto, but to minister and to give His life a ransom for many (verse 45). Even Jeremiah in his day said to his scribe Barucb, "Seekest thou great things for thyself, seek them notf' (Jer. xiv, 5). As It is a case of self or the Lord and cannot be both, we must persist in attaining to the fullness of the experience of "Not I, but Christ who liveth in me "Not I, but the grace of God "In newness of lite, dead Indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord "Delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh "Risen with Christ and setting our affi fectlon on things above" (Gal. ii, 20 Cor. xv, 10 Rom. vl, 4, 11 II Cor. Iv 10, 11 Col. IU, 1-4). Neither James nor John nor their mother seemed to understand wheat they came seeking preferment in the kingdom, and it did seem so out ot place when He had just been speaking of His own sufferings and death. Even on the last nJ^ht. at the passover, as ha spoke of one or them betraying Him, they were striving to which of therm, should be the greatest, Him oc casion to say, "I am among 7°° as that serveth" (Luke xxli, 21-27). No teacher of man was ever so lonely, mis understood or unappreciated. There ia euch a depth of meaning in His words, "No man knoweth the Son but the Father" (Matt, xi, 27) "I live by t&w Father" (John vi, 57). He spoke of tha cup given Him to drink and the bap tism of suffering which awaited Hla and asked if they could share it, anl they thought that their devotion to Him was such that they could shari» nnvthlng with Him, even to dyintf .with Him, as Peter said (John xili, 37j* They did not understand. How could: they when they were so dull as not to receive His plain words about His owl* dying? Aud when he was arrested that last night and was .about to be bounft and led away as a prisoner Peter would have delivered Him by his sword If he could. Oh, how little we understand of what it means to follow Him, to manifesto His life, to bear the burden of tftfr meek and lowly One, who, when ifor was reviled, reviled not again when He suffered He threatened not, leav ing us an example that we should fot. low His steps (I Pet. ii, 21-23).
