ONLY THREE DAYS ARE LEFT Next week when you have decided to buy one of PHILLIPS & CREW CO.’S Pianos at the Special Prices it will be too late—other wiser people will have captured all of them. One customer who looked last week at a piano costing $275.00 was surprised yesterday to find the same instrument marked down to $225.00, and she promptly bought it. Next week the same piano will be $275.00—the usual lowest price. Two splendid bargains were added today — A FISHER PIANO IN OAK, fine upright piano for which we regularly get $375.00. Marked special this week $200.00. A STERLING COLONIAL Up right Piano in beautiful Mahogany—regular price $400, marked this week $250.00. The wonder is that at such prices we have any of them left, but the terrible storm of wind and rain kept many ladies from coming to buy. Out-of-town people are sending in money with their orders— trusting to get the piano of their selection or an other just as good. We will sell every one of these Pianos this week, for the prices talk. Only Three Days Remain. Come at Once.

IIRTHPLACE OF OLD GLORY GIVES HONOR TO THE FLAG. By Private Leaned Wire. Philadelphia, Pa., June 14.—Proba bly In no other city of the country la Hag (lay no generally obaerved aa In Philadelphia, and quite naturally, for It »«* In thla city that the flag waa given birth.

There were conglomerate colonial flag, and here and there a private banner or some great landed proprietor, but no recognized American flag. ..There wag no little worrlment over oils fact, and the. Continental or Con- rederate congreaa aet about agreeing “pon the form, character and general Purport of one. Congreaa accordingly appointed Benjamin Franklin, Thomaa i-ynrh and Benjamin Horriaon aa a committee to agree upon and formally report a flag design. A ear the ctoae of the year 1775 they reported In favor of adopting the Brit' lah Union Jack, plua thlrtcei Washington wanted a flva-polnted atar added; others were Inclined to adopt a modified fortn of the Dutch flag, with Its broad red atripea. Finally, on June 14, 1777, congrees agreed upon a flag of thirteen atripea with thlrtsen atara on a blue Bela, thus appropriating a little here and a little there until the atar and the etripe and the colors, red,white and blua, apepared upon the banner, and the “Stars and Stripes" became the Insignia of the re public. Of course, every one recalls the work of Betsy Rosa, who no doubt suggested much aa well as did the sew> Ing of the flrat flag.

The house has been turned over to the Federal government by the American Flag House and Betty Boas .Memorial Association, and will be maintained aa a fiubllc memorial and museum of colonial and revolutionary relics.
