80 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 1866. was
81, $50, 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
ington, So, 400; loss 1914. Ger
mania, $1,SOO; loss 1926. Uni.
ted States, $2,393; loss 1921!
All these are cash companies ;
and the rates of some sixteen
note companies exhibit q similar
commentary, showing greater
mortality on small than on large
policies, The cause is attributed
to the fact that the wealthier
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 50
mat erially promotes longevity
The Equitable Life Assurance
Society issues policies on q single

Joussrox's Flour MILL - One Of the
most noteworthy improvements, in this year
of unexampled progress 10 our city, is that
undertaken and now nearly completed BY
that vide awake miller and thorough busi-
ness man, Mr. james Johnston.
Az duly noticed By " st The time, ou the
first Of January last Ne. Jehnstsu puschas>
ed Of n. Donahue, Esq. its then proprie.
tor, the Union Flour Mil, situated on
Western Avenue. near Front street. paying
the sum Of Eli 900 therefor. The machinery
was found to be in most excellent con-
dition and had already achieved high rep
utation for the superior quality Of the -four
produced. but sha building Was somewhat dill:
spidated and much TOO small for Mr.. John
ston's requirements. lie bidsd his time,
however, until the summer arrived. when
he commenced his improvements by put
ting up y smoke>stsck Of brick, 72t feet
high, the tallest in Davenport
Then new floors were laid throughout, and
the old siding, inside castings and roof res
placed with new material, and the founda>
ton fos new wing, on the north side, laid.
The original building was 26x36 feet in the
main-with the new addition il will be 42x
~ feet. 1t will be completed in about two
weeks now, and the whole work will have
been done without stopping operations -
The expenditure for this improvement foots
up to $1,000. thus making the cost of the
entire establishment to Mr.. Johnston &ls,-
900.
The mill is provided with three run Of
burrs, the capacity Of grinding being two
hundred barrels Of dour daily. A noticea>
ble improvement IN these burrs is the ven
tllators. consisting Of two holes bored
through either side Of the stone, which
causes current Of air to pass through,
keeping the -four cool, thus turning it out
in condition that will materially aid it in
keeping sweet for heightened period. This
Improvement, which is patented, has beea
IN successful operation in Illinois aud other
States for some time, but We believe Mr..
Johnston is the only miller who has intro,
duced 1t in an Iowa mill.
The facilities for handling and storing
grain is oil that could be desired. Ten
thousand bushels can be stored in the upper
stories. Mr.. Johnston will buy none but
the best wheat as he grinds exclusively for
the home trade. and does not intend to
manufacture for the purpose Of shipping
east or south.

as we'll a. the participants Of this pleasant

Can our pious and God loving contempo-

stitutional and republican psinciples,
against divine and human laws; II, instead
Of staying in closed and sultr' churches and

an dthe pure balmy air, than il is under
the hot and oppressive atmosphere Of
well filed church. Which Of these divine
services please our Lord most, Where is
tho sin, where the harm in this our wosships
The next question is: The learned edi
TOT Of the Gazette complains in bis, % we'll
- in the name of the editor Of the Ausca.
tine Journal, that the Davenport barbar.
ians and sacrelegsrs BY their shouting and
horn footing, I've are sorry hs he's not .
better ear for mus;o,) interrupted the devo>
tion Of the Museatine congregations.
Now, who ever heard that faith~
III believers could b disturbed in the
exercises Of devotion By external influence.
We are very much afraid that our christian
friend of the Gasetfs hes already forgotten
his biblical lessons. Docs be rscollect the
patien; and pious Daniel, who, surrounded
by roaring lions, sent his prayers to God
and was delivered or Of those three pious
prophets, who in the 6ery oven never ceased

not be the ruin and psrd,tion Of churches
