lot this year, which for size and quality
were as fine as any we have seen. They

flee on Tuesday large basketful of
apples from his orchard, for us to sample.
There were eight different varieties in the
lot, all fine large apples, averaging, we
should judge, without weighing them,
oyer pound apiece. 1t was as fine a
basket of fruit as is often seen. Mr.. Hyer
has one of the best orchards in the county.

"Radix,n in one of his recent New York let
tiers, makes good point apropos of life insur-
ance Investigations and troubles generally, by
calling attention to the fallacy OF Judging Of
the reliability Of companies according to their
bulk. Many such institutions seek to dazzle
the public eye by printing their gross assets
IN the heaviest type, and by laying great
stress upon the nominal millions under their
control to win confidence and prevent any
close al alysis of the whole statement He
points out the plain but often forgotten fact,
that even conceding the equally good quality
of the assets of two companies, it is not ne
cessarily the one with the most millions which
is safest for the policy holder, but the one
whose net surplus bears the largest ratio to its
whole property. Judged by this sound and
searching principle "Radix" finds the .Hitna
Life Insurance Company Of Hartford, to be
one of the strongest, If not the very strongest
institution of the kind in the country. With
little over twenty-four millions of assets, it
has about four and quarter millions of clear
surplus. The special commission appointed by
the Legislature of Connecticut year ago, to
investigate all the life insurance companies of
that State, say of the Htna that it is mot only
solvent, but financially sound and under the
management of officers and directors of large
experience sound judgment, ard unblemished
character and entitled to the entire confidence
OF policy holders and the public" Taking the
above facts and this official Endorsement to-
gether ii is evident that this writer's estimate
of the Attna is one that can be everywhere
safely Endorsed.

A Doctors Queer story.

The Cincinnati Times tells the follow
ing on the authority of a physician In that
city, who says the incident happened on
the 4th, of September. last a lady drove to
my office door about 9:45 o'clock, and
asked me to visit her sick child. In
order to learn of the chila's illness
questioned the lady as to the symptoms,
and she stated that she had not seen the
child in four months and that when she
last heard from it it vas we'll. / then
asked why she wished me to go to the
house. She said, because it Is sick
Row. You can see her in the cab. She
got in at the depot with me, and her face
is pinched and pale, and she seems to be
in great pain" | took seat beside her
and examined the carriage closely, but
could see no child or shadow OF child.
The lady stated that DR.. NJ. was her fam
lily physician, but that she knew she
would be unable to find him at his office
at that late hour, and she had no wish to
be delayed, as she feared the child would
die. On arriving at her home, | found
that an hour or more previous the little
girl had been taken with severe pains in
the stomach, and was crying terribly.
The father asked his wife how she came
to return without letting them know, and
asked who her companion was. She
stated that he was a physician she had
brought to treat the child, and then pro-
ceeded to tell her husbrnd the same story
she told me. She had no means of know
ing that her child was i'll, and had ne
thought of such an occurance until she
took the cab at the depot.

How lie Danced With His Wife.

This nice little incident of the Murphy
campaign gets into print through the
connivanse of a Springfield correspon-
dent of the Pittsfeld Mass Eagle We
had masked ball the other night, given
by one of Springfeld's well-known clubs,
and thereby hangs tale" A business
man told his pretty young wife, on the
night of the above mentioned ball, that he
was obliged to go out of town to one oil
the temperance meetings, and might not
return till the following noon. The wife
resolved, after he had left, to have good
time in different way, so according y
she procured a simple black domino, and
went boldly to the masked ball. She
had never done such rash thing before
but her husband had been away very oft
en- of late. and she would NOPE at home
no longer. She danced once, twice, rec
times. and nobody seemed to know her,
vet she was fully determined to see II
over, and unmask with the rest at twelve
o'clock. Now dashing young cavalier
asks her hand for the coming waltz, and
she accepts. They whirl away, and she
saws: "Do You dance ofteni" blushins
behind her mask at her boldness. VERY
often" replied the cavalier, and added
SPOT often in Springfield" s'Do not live
here. thensr the little domino mustered
up courage to say. II would live here
or at the ends of the earth. to be near 9
little black domino that could mention,
said the cavalier This was too much
for the little lady, but she was in for It,
and would fight it out now, come wins
would. They danced great deal TO
ge,her. and when the circle formed, JUS
before twelve o'clock, they unmasked
when. to the horror of Mr., he found
that he had been dancing with his owl
wife. The scene that followed can bt
imagined, and we will say that 1t wa
not on temperance.
