OLDEST ARMY MARCHING TUNE.
"The White Cockade" Played Before
Americans in 1775.
It is the old nmslci after all,. that
puts the life into inarcliinK feet, for
it carries the traditions or niari-liiiiK
in ils melodies. One of the oldest of
the tunes was "The White Cockade."
This is a historical melody to Amer
icans, though many Americans way
not be aware of the fact. It va3 the
tune to which the farmers who fired
the shot heard round the world
marched when they determined to
force the passage of the bridge at
Concord. Possibly it was the only
tune which the drummer und filer of
Capt. Isaac Davis' company knew, hut
the fact that it was played is histo
rical. The popularity of the tune is
proof that a melody made for one par
ty is recognized as good by all if it."
ha.s the quality of being singable. "The
White Cockade" was originally a Ja
cobite tune, hut it made a good march
for the descendants of the Kngllah
1'iiritniis, April 1!, 1773, when Capt:
Davis made his musicians strike up.
As they were the first American force
t hat ever advanced to battle as Amer
icans, "The White Cockade" is the old
est melody of the American army.

SIMPLE TEST FOR EGGS.
Method Used in Germany Said to Be t

A new and simple method for test

the air chamber in the Hat end of the

WAIT LONG FOR RECOGNITION.
Example of Incredulity Met With by
Explorers.
Referring to the Incredulity nnd
bitter attacks which Henry iU. Stan
ley nnd other explorers had to meet, j
A. J. Mounteney-JophBo writes in
Scrihner's Magazine: "I remember
one evening in Africa when we were
talking together over the camp fire,
his telling me, laughingly, about a
certain prominent personage who was
well known for his pomposity and self
importance. He said: 'When I re
turned from finding Livingstone Mr. X.
distrusted me and only offered me one
linger of his hand to shake. After my
.,,. ,., mv RPP,,nd exnedition.
when I sailed down tho Kongo, he
cave me two fingers. When I had
fonn,k,(I tho Kongo Free State for the
king of the Ilelgians and returned to
l T.'ni'iniKl I cot three fingers; but it
chair geographers' who stay at home.
Livingstone suffered from '.his same
attitude of incredulity and returned to
the interior of Africa, whore he met
his death, because ho could rot bear
to face tho unbelievers in Umdon un
til he had solved tho mystery of the
great Lualaba river."
FAKE TOOTH WAS VALUABLE.
Enabled Missionary to Gain Influence
Over Savage Tribe.
A well-known Church of Englnnd
missionary among the aborigines of
Queensland. Australia, gained great
Infiucuco over a certain tribe In a
very peculiar manner.
This tribe had the queer rustom of
having the front tooth of tiie upper
Jaw knocked out. The missionary, hy
accident, li.nl lost this same tooth nnd
replaced it by a false one. When he
got talking with the aborigines, he
would pull It out, point to tho hollow
place, and say, "Me, brother, belong
to you!"
In this way he gained the complete
confidence of the tribe, convertd
every member of II to Christianity,
and Introduced as much f'vl"-tloo
I as they were capable of ahhiuiilatlLg. .
