It is calIed “The Union” because it represents the Flag of England, ScOtland and Ireland united in one design. When Scotland was united to England at the accession of King â€" A -“~71‘_JA_AQ.R laid over the Scottish Grass. and formed the first Union Flag of 1606. i When Ireland was united to Great Britain in 1801 a new Union Flag was adopted, the Red Cross or Saltire of Ireland being placed alongside the white Scottish Cross. Although sanc- tioned by popular custom, it is a 1 LL- mistake to call our National tne ”Union Jack.” The Jack is a. very small flag of the same pattern flown from the Jack stafi on the bow-sprit of a. man-of-wor. When flown from the most with a. white border. it is the signal for a pilot, and is called the ‘ ‘Pilot J sck.” biscuits and appetizing bread. We have been makxng Jewel Flour for years and guarantee it. Ask your grocer for Jewel Brand the next time you want flour. There is a peculiarity in the design which neeus explanation. The Scot tish and Irish crosses are not placed side by side continuously across the whole flag; they are "counterchang- ed” so that in the first and third di- visions the white of Scotlann, as the senior kingdom, is uppermost; while _in the second and fourth divisions , the red of Ireland has the precedence. EThe narrow white border round St. lGeor ge’s Cross and on the outer edge :of St. Patrick’s is added only to meet larule of heraidry that color must ‘ not touch color but be separated by a border of one of the metalsâ€"in this case silverâ€"which separates the red lcolor of the Crosses from the blue lcolor of the ”field” or ground of the flag.

Flesherton and dozens of other nearby towns.!] His courts were low-roofed. lamp ‘1 lighted halls. and his courtiers strap- I ping country boys and girls. who ; pranced and balanced with the splendid zest of youth, through ' Money Musk, Two Sisters, Sir Roger de Coverley. and other dances of our ; fathers’ and grandfathers’ day. ‘: A most eficient prime minister in lthis mirth and music kingdom was Mr F O. Smith, now of this city, who for nearly forty years was a resident of Brampton. and as hand- master for a quarter of a century, ‘played and “called 03” at dances in Peel, Halton, Duflerin and Welling- ton Counties. “Every five or ten lots had a hotel with a hall over the shed in those days.” said Mr. Smith. “and often I 9 would be called to play every night . in the week in these, often driving miles. The boys and girls would all .va ' be there, and promptly at .eight' o’clock they were on the floor, keep- ing up jigs, Scotch reels. hand reels and step dances till daybreak. Oh. it‘was great, only the girls would chew gum. Why sir, at one dance where there were eighteen girls on the floor at once, every blessed one of the eighteen was chewing." "The young women then followedl fashion just as closely as do their sisters nowadays. At that time if a girl didn’t wear a hoop-skirt she was nobody, and rather than go without the semblance of one, at least, the girls used to steal clothesâ€"lines at the hotels, quilt them into their petti~ coats, and come sailing into the hall- : room with their heads high and their shirts standing out as if all the !regulation balloon wire was there. A “Some of the old string dances? Well. there was McDonald’s Reel. Two Sisters, Pstronells. Paddy Carey, Waltz Medley, Strip the Willow, and lots of others “The boys would go sidling up to the girls sitting on the long benches ranged down each side of the hell, andinafew minutes they’d be on the floor. Jim and Jernehy coming full speed down the middle. often lookmg half scared to death for fear they would make some miStake. “VIt was amusing, sure. We fellows in the bandâ€"generally four of usâ€" would be fiddling and tooting away for all we were worth, and I’d be calling off the same kind of way. Money Musk went like this :â€" “Rigbt hand partner, left hand back, turn, ladies. swing gentsâ€"and they minded. sureâ€"gents swing ladies, forward and back, turn part- ;ner half round, forward and back, i six down centre. “The calls for Portland Fancy. an- “1 other good old favorite, were about t the same, only we had the ladies’ , chain in that. “At a ball which I once consented 'I to manage for afriend, we had rather a tough time. When I went up into a the hall the string band had arrived, a but there was no semblance of order. c Young fellows were walking around with pipes and cigars in their mouths and hats on their heads. evidently I ready for any hoodlumism. We got through the first dance any old way 1 and by that time I had a plan formed. “Just as quickly as possible, unob- served, I ran down stairs to the landlady, and asked her for four i pieces of ribbon. any color she liked. 1 I then picked out the four hardest . men in the bunch and formed them into a decOrated committe, and then , made a little speech telling them to see that all hate were removed, that smoking ceased and that everybody joined in an orderly promenade ’ around the hall. It worked 0. K., ‘ and things were going smooth as L satin, until they formed up for the ' next set. and then a big, husky fellow ’ began a dispute as to who should be 3 head of the floor. I called to my committee to remove him, and they did, by the back of the neck. Then they threw him down stairs, and if he wasn’t serene aiterward, we all were, for the remainder of the even- ing passed off beautifully. especially after I had given them a comic song to put them in good humor.” " When the drill sheds were opened at Orangeville," went on Mr. Smith, MI was asked to take part in the pro- gramme. I did a good deal of comic singing in those days, and this par- "You see, I’m not very bigâ€"well, just after the last call died away a women down towards the middle of the hall jumped up and shouted: ‘Never mind the encore, let the some wee fellow sing over sgsin!’ “Brampton was the birthplace or “Shout. ye Loysl Britons.” said Mr. Smith. “and I land the honor of .being the first man to sing it. The song was written by Mr. Wilson, of Brsmton, in 1866, st the time of the first Fenian raid. Mr. Wilson gave the words to me end I had them printed and set to the music of “The ‘Boys ere Muching." When our vol- unteers were shout leaving town on the train. I took cOpies of the new song down to the station end gsve them to the boys. The song tool: like wild fire. end when the train . rolled out our iellows were yelling for Loyal Britons at the top of their voices. "Adventures? Yes, a. few. "One cold snowy evening some of as follows who had orgenized 0. min- c the birthplaqo_ _of strel band, calling ourselves ‘Tbe Iron Clad Minstrels,’ struck Flasher- tonâ€"we were booked for a show there, niggers and all the rest of it. and carried four brass instruments and a. big drum “Once inside the hotel where our performance was to be held, I was struck by the number of people as eembled. as the hour was early. and going up to the proprxetor, remarked: here? “He looked at me rather queerly and said: “ ‘Yes. but do you know what they’re here for? Last night a poor fellow fell down the stairs and broke his neck, and the inquest is being held here; and more than that, in the other room there, a horse thief is having his trial.’ “It was true. Here we were, in- quest, horse thief trial and minstrel show. all on tagethAer. Well. any vâ€"v v â€"_- way. we went oh with the show, but there was one thing I couldn’t stand. They showed me into a. room where I was to black up for my part. and there, lying before me, was the corpse. No. sir. there was no use talking, I couldn’t go on then. no: until they had taken it somewhere else, which they did at my request!” Twenty years ago the band boom struck this section of Ontario. and Mr. Smith, as a. most efficient in- structor, taught bundsmen in M31- ton, Brampton, Alton. Cheltenham. Meadville, Rockwood and Hlllsburg. H “I removed from Brampton to Erie village thirteen years ago and in- structed the band of that place nine years. in the meantime putting the Fergus band in shape for their fall fair, teaching the Georgetown 20th Regiment band for a summer or two, and organizing the Ladies’ Erie Union Band. “One of my possessions of which I think a great deal is a cornet pre- sented to me by the Mechanics’ Insci- tote band of Alton. lb was made to order by Mr. Lechantenr. the present foreman of the Whaley, Royce Company, in whose employ I am.” “How do the modern dances com- pare with those of the old days?” was asked. “Modern dances !” echoed Mr. Smith, with a snifi of scorn. “They don‘t know how to dance in these days. This is how they go about it.” and in spite of his sixty-three years, he executed a few steps. which, how- gy, as they imitated the lackadaisical movements of these days. “There are points of resemblance, though, in the dances themselves For instance. the old time lancers’ quadrille is almost identical with the Saratoga lancers of to day. You wi 1 'notice how little I have mentioned the waltz. We had very little of at in those days, but occasionally there‘ might be two waltzes played durix g the evening.” Mr. Smith was born in England in ’45, and came to Canada when a small boy, about the time the Grand Trunk was building, fifty-one years ago. He married thirty-six years ago Miss Robinson. sister of the fire chief of Toronto Junction, at which place, 77 Pacific avenue. he resides. ‘I'm glad to see so many people But Find the EAT WHAT YOU WANT The first thing to do in the case of: indigestion or stomach weakness is} to strengthen the muscular walls of the stomach and intestines, so that they will care for the food that is eaten.
