FIRST CONFEDERATE FLAG
Said to Biave Been Designed by
an Alabama Artist.
(Montgomery Dispatch to New York
Sun).
In view of the controversy that
has arisen as to who was the designer
of the original flag of the Confederacy,
the Advertiser states that
* ' L-11
Wicoia MfiXSCnail, a aim uiaxvouicui
of engineers under Gen "Dick" Taylor,
Col Samuel H Lockett, and Gen
Stephen D Lee, not only designed
original flag, but also the gray uniform
adopted by the Government of
the Confederate States of America.
The Advertiser declares that the
original designs for the flag of the
Confederacy and the gray uniform
of the South were painted by Nicola
Marschal). in his studio in the town
of Marion, Ala, in tne latter part of
April or early in May, several weeks
after the opening of hostilities.
Explaining the designing of the
flag Mr Marschall, who still is hale
and hearty at the age of 84, stated:
"I was at work in my studio late
one afternoon, when Mrs Napoleon
Lockett entered. She said, 'Mr Marshall,
the South has seceded, and
we want you to paint a flag for us.'
I took ud a card and my materials,
and in about fifteen or twenty minutes
dashed off three designs for a
flag. While I was engaged with
the task Mrs Lockett stood by and
made a few suggestions. When I
had finished I gave her the card,
with the three designs in colors, and
the turned to go. I was just on
the point of turning back to my
other work when she stopped on the
threshold. 'Oh, yes,' she said, 'we
also want you to design a uniform.'
I realized at once that this would
require several days. The design
would have to be worked out carefully,
and painting the human figure,
too, woiid take time. The following
day I gave her the design for
the gray uniform."
The Mrs Lockett referred to by
the venerable artist was the mother
of Col Samuel H Lockett.
The designs for the flag and the
uniform, according to Mr Marschall,
were taken by Mrs Lockett to Governor
Moore, who in turn submitted
them to the inspection of several
men prominent in the South at the
time of the secession. He does not
know who these men were, or
whether the wishes of Jefferson
Davis were considered when a choice
among the three designs was made.
CAN YOU DOUBT IT?
VNeo the Proof Cao Be So Easily loTestified.
When so many grateful citizens
.4>f this locality testify to the benefit
derived from Doan's Kidney Pills,
can you doubt the evidence? The
proof is not far away?it is almost
at your door. Read what a Georgetown
resident says about Doan's
Kidney Pills. Can you demand more
convincing testimony?
Mrs E Rembert, 312 Cleland St,
Georgetown, S C, says: "About a
?"? f had kidnev comDlaint and
jv?l ? .
I suffered severely from dull, nagging
backaches, headaches and dizzy
spells. I did not rest well and
mornings had no strength or energy.
Reading: of Doan's Kidney Pihs, I
procured a box. It did not take
them long to relieve me. I have had
no backache or other trouble from
my kidneys since."

Best Cough Medicine for Children.
"I am very glad to say a few
words in praise of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy," writes Mrs Lida
Dewey. Milwaukee, Wis. "I have
used it for years both for my children
and myself and it never fails
to relieve and cure a cough or cold.
No family with children should be
without it as it gives almost immediate
relief in cases of croup."
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is
pleasant and safe to take, which is
of great importance when a medicine
must be given to young children.

Catarrh of the throat is not only an

the victim to many other diseases.
We are constantly breathing
into our throats numerous atmospheric
germs. Disease germs of all
sorts. This cannot be avoided. If
the throat is healthy the system i3
protected from these poisonous
germs. But if the throat is raw and
punctured with numerous little ulcers,
by catarrh, then the disease
germs have easy access to the system.
