- IT Is A REMARKABLE FACT
that the mortality experienced
on large policies Of life assurance
is less than on small ones. The
average amount of each policy
issued by the Equitable Life As
surance Society in 1865. was
S4.15O, while the percentage OF
losses was but 1920. An aver
age policy Of the Mutual Life for
the same period was $3,5o4;
percentage Of loss 1924. Wash
ingtou, 81, 400; loss 1914. Ger
mania, $500; loss 1926. Uni.
ted States, $2,393; loss 1927.
All these are cash companies !;
and the rates of some sixteen
note companies exhibit a similar
commentary, showing greater
mortality on small than on large
policies. The cause is attributed
to the fact that the Weather
classes, who are able TO assure
for the largest amounts, enjoy
those constant comforts and sani-
tary privileges, and lead that
regular course Of life which 80
mat erially promotes longevity
The Equitable Life Assurance
Society issues policies on q single
life up to the amount Of 325. 900.

How do Hou Like the sI31ack

Half the week during which the BLACK
Crook is to exhibit in Dubuque is now
past and the constantly recurring query
from thosc who have not get seen TO those
who have is, "How do YOU like it :" The
"Back Crook" mas peculiar characteristics,
that render il very difficult 10 give any cor.
rect ,dea of il to one who has not seen IT,.
Ii cannot be described by comp arison with
other theatrical entertainments. because It
was got Up on purpose to b. As utterly un !.
like as possible all other theatrical enter
tainments. Most plays deal with things Of

Dante of purgatory; Moore Of peris, un
condemned to hell or purga.ory. bu. not to
be admitted TO hesyen till they had won it,:
one might think that these had exhausted
the resources Of imagination: but the
BLACK Crook is abundant proof 10 the
contrary.
It would be as easy TO describe ice to an
African. or . telegraphic apparatus to an
Indian, as the "Black Crook to an "out
