600. Its payments upon policies last
year amounted to $l3,959, $50 81, equal
TO SAG, 900 every business day in the
year. and its income was more than
$1s, 800, 900. The managers of this great
corporation continue TO augment its
resources from year to year, not by
adopting the fancy schemes invented
and practiced by some other companies,
but by adhering TO the principles of
legitimate life insurance. The variety
Of insurance which is 80 cheap that II

Jacobs Royal museum gave their clos

and evening to crowded houses. At the

the most of whom were children, in the

in the evening, and the performers were
received with round after round of ap-
plause. 1t is one of the most popular

and although the price of admission

Judge UT, in Waterloo, Iowa, on
Saturday, decided in case Of interest
to the Ancient Order of Working Men
1t appears that in 1882 the Grand Lodge
of Iowa became incorporated under the
State law, and threw off its allegiance
to the Supreme Lodge. A minority of
the Grand Lodge, however, remained
loyal, and was recognized as the regular
Grand Lodge of the State by the Su-
preme Lodge. A suit was brought to
determine the right to the franchises
and property of the Order. The Court
held that mere act of incorporation
under the State law has no power to
release subordinate body from its al
legiance to asuperior body in an organi-
cation. This decision vests the fran
chises and property Of the organization
in the loyal Grand Lodge.

HAVE MUSIC AT HOME.

A writer in AppIeton'S Journal advo-
Gates more general and thorough musical
education. He says;-"The frequently
adopted plan of waiting to see whether
children have any taste or show any love
for music, is wrong one. No child would
prefer praoticing scales to playing ball; and
few boys, if the cultivation of their tastes
depended upon the whims of their ever
flying fancies, would turn into educated
men. But all parents should first give
their children the opportunity of forming
a taste, and for its development trust to
the aesthetic element Of their nature"

CARD PLATE.

Take a small round or oval plate, it may
be CT coarse common ware, provided it is
smooth and Of graceful form. Give it
three coats of sealing wax paint, made by
dissoIving sealing wax in alcohol, letting
each become thoroughly dry and smooth
before the next is applied, When this is
nicely done, ornament either with pic
lures made for such purposes, or with
decaIcomanie, and finish with one or more
coats of clear varnish. You will be sur
prised at the beauty of your work. A card
plate madein this way painted red, with
Chinese ornaments in gilt, has often been
admired, few believing it to be of domestic
manufacture. Vases and antique bowls to
stand on corner brackets may be made in a
similar manner.
