What boy, in his hoyish flay, 'over formed a procession Wi'hd,nt having at its head a flag'? Perhaps it would be 'but a.newspaper or a bit of cloth tied to a stick, but so long as it would stream in the air 'he would love it and treasure it among his playthings. Nothing ever supplants it until that boy has grown to man- hood, then he adopts the flag of the nation to which he belongs, his love for flags multiplied by his patriotism. Flags, we see belonging to all rations from the bristling griffin of China to the stolid elephant of Siam; from the pure white of Japan to the dozen colors of Spain, and on each flag we find portrayed Soule object of either the animal or vegetable world, or some representation of a historically significant, event. This rule, has, however; like all other rules, exceptions, for 'instance the flag of Hayti is made of a double strip, one of red and one. of bine, they having adopted the predomin- • ating colors of France, to whom at one time they owed allegiance; or, again, the flag of Egypt, having three strips, two ot green and one of gald. The world's flags number about fifty of recognized importance, no two being of pronounced similarity except N wway and S veden Fifty flags, representing fifty countries in the heraldic meaning of their em hlnzonments, elnblazonments that toll of wars, battles, treaties, friend ships. antagonisms, religions and superstitions.. It takes alt kinds of people to make up a world, so a proverb runs, and well may we add that it takes all kinds of flags to represent all kinds of people. To us these emblazonments have no meaning more than the keeping that appeared on the English flag. up of a custom prevalent among our The flag did not• long remain unal- fighting Saxon forefathers of centur- , les ago.

Such was the significance of the royal flag of Scotland. Turning to Ireland's part of the Royal Standard we find it to be a harp, whose carved post is an angel, the harp aid angel bei'ig of white, with a background of blue. Blue; bo-vever, was not always Ireland's national color, nor is it to- day When Brain Boru made his famous invasion into Norway 'and Sweden his battalion's marched un- der a red flag.
