The Orl^ia of Old Glory#
Did you ever wonder where the
American flag got its nickname
“Old Glory?” If you have
thought anything about it then
the origin of the name will inter
est you. Captain Stephen Driver
was without doubt, the first man
to Christen our flag ‘'Old Glory,’’
He was born at Salem, Mass'.,
March 17, 1803,- When about to
sail front fhall oort in command
of the brig Charles D'oggett, in
the year 1831, he was pres'ented
with a large Amerean flag. As it
was sent aloft and broke out to
the air Captain Driver christened
the beautiful emblem- “’Old
Glory,’’ and this was the name
he evermore used- tor it.
His flag shared with the Cap
tain the perils and adventures of
fife de-ep, and o-n- his refirement
from- the se.a it was taken by him
to- Nashville, Tenn., where he
made his home and where be died
iii lSS'O, Everybody wanted bisfiag
at the time of the Civil War, but
Captain Ehiver quilted it with h'is
own hands and made it into a
comforter for is own bed. How
ever, when the Federal troops
took Nashville the staunch Union
captain brought it to the Capitol
at Washington, and as it floated
from the flagstaff—unquilted
again and a real flag, he exclaim
ed: “Now that ‘‘Old Glory” is
up there, gentlemen, I am ready
to die,”
At present this sanre flag is fo
the Esses Institute, in Salem,
Mass,
Old SoldierGivegRccaffiitiemlation
Gustav Wangelfn, Commander
of G, A. R, Post, Ptnekneyville,
Ill,, writes: ‘'‘I highly recommend
Foley Kidney Pills, which I pre
fer to all others I have used.”
Foley Kidney Pills give quick re
relief from backache, rheuntatic
pains, stiff, swollen joints, lan-
gurdness, kidney trouble' dtid
sleep disturbing bladder ailments.
