Office of tjje Delegate to the Na
tional Council of Women of the
United States,
Canton, O., Aug. 1, 1891.
Sarah E. Phillips. National Secretary.
Dear Madam: I have tho honor to submit
my report as delegate from the Woman's Belief
Corps to the National Council of Women of the
United States.
May 7 and 8, 1694, I had tho pleasure of
meeting the National President in Philadel
phia at a meeting of the Executive Committee
of the Woman's National Council, io consider
reports of standing committees, as well as of
the World's Corgress of Benrei'Tn tat ive Women
conducted at the Columbian Exposition under
the auspices of the Counc" ami to arrange a
program for the Triennial COuuci!, to be held
at Washington in February, 195.
We were warmly welcomed by the officers of
the National Council, and were rejoiced to
meet In fraternal affiliation the representatives
of the 16 other National associations coming
together.
Next to the Woman's Christian Temperance
UuiatB, with its 250,000 members, the Woman's
Belief Corps took rank, numerically; while
from the statements of work performed made
st a conference session by the varied delega
tions, we realized with pardonable pride that
the Belief Corps in character and importance
stood second to none.
The 17 associations reformatory, charitable,
educational, industrial, religious, and patriotic
aggregate a usemiier&hip of over 700.000; a
Tast power for good thus affiliated together.
Onr National President, Mrs. Sarah C. Mink,
made an able exposition of tiie general aims
and objects of the Woman's Belief Corp3 and
its relations to the Grand Army of the Repub
lic; and your delegate dwelt more particularly
cpon the great work of patriotic teaching in
the public schools.
Sabah C. Mink.
-We found to our gratification that we had
struck a strong and tender chord iu the hearts
of all present: aud this gave us confidence to
present the following resolution, which was
adopted without a disscuting vote:
Whereas there is a manifest need for instruction
in conntilutionHl Government in our public schools
and of a more direct method of cultivutini; a
broader npint of nationality among the children
of the country, based upon the Declaration of Iu
depeiideiicn and the principle of universal liberty
and equal rights to all inculcated therein: It is
therefore
Setolvcd. That the National Council of Women
approve of the gret movement to Icaoli patriotism
In the benooht of the United State-, and of placing
ft ting on every tclioolhouse and iu every (school
room lti the land, and that a committee on patri
otic teaching be added to the lint of btaudinu coiu
tdittees of the Countil.
'-Pending a discussion of the resolution, May
Wright Sewall, President of tho National Coun
cil of Women, proved herself a true member of
tho Womau's Belief Corps, and a worthy ap
pointee on the staff of tho National President,
in, relating a most touching story of tho flag
coming within her own personal experience.
-Bacbcl Foster Avery, Secretary, aud all the
officers of the association evinced patriotic in
terest. Loyalty to the flag lias powerful advo
cates among all these earnest women. Since
the Council mooting a. standing committee has
been added to the Nutioual Council of Women
-ou Patriotic Teaching with your delegate,
Kate Brownlee Sherwood, as Chairman.
local councils and patrons.
-How aro wo to make the most of the move
ment so well inaugurated? This is a vital
question affecting every member of tho Wom
te'e Beliof Corps:
y.1. Subordinate Corps may unito with other
associations of wouieu in the several Towns,
Cities or Counties of our respective States in

teaching nnd press its importance upon school
authorities, board, trustees and teachers. With
the flag SRluto ip every" schoolroom,-which
should be our first aim, all tho rest will suroly
follow. The Prestdout of every local Council
becomes, by virtue of her office, a member of
tho National Council.
2. Tho Woman's IMicf Corps may secure
rcpiesoatatiou by Patrons, or lifo members, iu
the National Council of Women. A Patron has
all the rights in the Executive Committee,
which is tiie controlhng'power of tho National
Council, that a delegate has, or a member ex
oflicio, except the right to vote. She can pre
sent resolutions, participate in discussions, and
be preseur, as an advisory member, at all meet
ings. leaving been approved by tho Executive Com
mittee, a Patron becomes a part of tho Council
for life upon payment of $100. It is hoped that
many of our loyal women will become Patrons
of the Council, or be placed there by their as
sociates as a mark of their confidence and
esteem.
At the triennial mootiig of tho National
Council, February next, tho Womau's Belief
Corps will be expected to take an important
place on the programs, with such exposition of
patriotic teaching and tho flag salute as thoy
may arrange.
Thanking tho National President foT the
broad aud comprehensive spirit iu which she
has carried out the onfers of 11th National
Convention, aud for tho personal enthusiasm
in which she has ontored into this vital work
of loyalty aud constitutional enlightenment,
and with the hopo that tho Womau's Beliof
Corps may move steadily forward in these now
linos of patriotio endoavor, this report is re
spectfully submitted, in F., C. and L.,

FLAGGED IN REGULATION STYLE.
Gen. Lyon Post, 4G, East Liverpool, O., was
one of tho Buckeye Posts that carried a hand
some silk banner, presented by their auxiliary
Corp3, in the grand parade of tho 28th National
Encampment, G.A.E., Pittsburg. Gou. Lyon
Corps, 46, surprised the Post and presented tho
flag, aud when tho comrades wero struck
speechless with suddon joy thoy loosened their
tonguc3 with ico cream and cake. So says an
"Aid," who sends a graphic account of just how
it was done in the following:
At just 8 o'clock there was a timid rap on
the door of Grand Army Hall, and Officer of
the Day F. G. Croxall was called to the ante
room, whero about 50 Corps members were in
waiting. He escorted our Organist, Florenco
Jessop, to tho organ, who began playing a march,
and the women marched in by twos to tho
altar, salutod, turned to tho right and loft and
marched to the rostrum. When all wero in,
followed by tho Color Bearer, Mary Timmons,
Anna Myers, first President, who presented tho
flag, marched through tho open ranks to tho
altar, saluted, presented herself before the'
Commander, and on behalf of Gon. Lyon Corns
presented the flag, saying:
"A Nation's power is shown by thedeferenco
to her flag in foreign ports, but a Nation's
honor by tho degree of pride and revorenco
paid her flag by her own citizens."
She said the colors of our Hag wero "born in
Heaven"; that tho red should remiud us of
the bright warm blood that was shod in its
defense; the white of the purity of tho devo
tion due our country and our flag; the bluo
our duty to our God and to our brave defend
ers, aud the golden &tats of tho glory duo our
country and its bravo defenders of 1801, '65.
Concluding, sho said
Comrades, into your bunds we give this flag,
knowing that to-day you stand ready, as in tho
days of old, to guard it with your lives, and that
you will never permit it to bo insulted or
trampled in tho dust."
Our correspondent, in conclusion, aaya:
Comrade Todd received the flag in behalf of
the Post, and the Corps marched out; and, dear
Editor, if you think women cannot keep step
and turn square corners, ask Post -ii. And let
me ay that if there are many more stars to bo
added to the blue field, we women will have to
have an enlargement of the heart, for I think
tho heart of every sister was filled to over
flowing with love for tho flag, and may God
bless the dear old comrades of 44, mid permit
each and every one to live to see their new Hag
as tattered and torn by ago as their old ouo is,
which tho now ono has supplanted."

tobacco, eliminates tho nicotine, steadies tho nerves, increases the weight, makes the blood
pure and rich and tingling with new life and energy. ITundreds of letters from aged men testify to
years of tobacco slavery, and toll how No-to-bac destroyed tobacco's power and brought back
feelings long since dead, while sensations of a younger existence once more warmed the cockles
of the old man's heart. Gloomy days were gone, the sunshine was brighter; the warbles
of the little birds all spoke of love; the old man made young again and happy.

How to Hay an Organ or Piano.
An organ or piano should form a part of
evory home, and there is no good reason why
any home, no matter how humble, should be
without ono. This happy state of affairs is
made possible by tho efforts of tho well-known
Piano and Organ makers, Cornish Co., of
Washington, N. J. Thirty years ago this firm
branched out from tho usual method of sell
ing through dealers, and began to sell their
instruments direct from the factory to thte
family at tho actual wholesale price; thua
Baving the purchaser the enormous profit and
commission demanded by dealers and agents.
Anothor great feature of their business 13 sell
ing on credit to thoso who are'not prepared to
pay all cash down. Thoy arrange terms to suit
the convonienco of the purchaser, aud imposs
nono of the annoying conditions usually con
nected with this method of buying. Business
enterprise and straight forward methods are
always appreciated, and Cornish Co. hT8
been rewarded by a constantly increasing
patronage, until to-day thoy do the largest d
rect organ and piano business in the world;
in fact, it is said that there is a Cornish Instrn;
meat in actual uso in overy County in tha
Uuitod States. They guarantee all their iv
struments for 10 years, and offer to ship eith
an organ or piano on 60 days trial without calk
payment, and pay freight both ways if it ia no
entirely satisfactory. Anyone cdntemplailait
the purchaso of either an organ or piano wla
do well to write to this firm for their bandsom
catalogue, which they send without charge.
