GUARANTY LIFE INSURANCE co.
renders certain the payment In full Of
every obligation. Every valid fcert II
cate can and will DO paid in full on Che
death Of the insured. s., .$tss5. t5 5 il; /;
7 The ability Of the Company to meet
all its possible obligations is indisputable1
for The following reasons: =
j 1. ITS Rate of Assessment ls3gradu-
ated by the actual risk incurred, so that
every member pays only and exactly his
proportion Of tho liability according TO-
age. No competent Actuary will quos-
ton the soundness and equity of the as.
easement rates. -
2. The Establlshmentof 4 Guaranty
fnnd by the contribution from every
member of $40 on each 81 900 of insur-
ance, <paid once for ally. This fund is
limited TO $4,000. The interest earned
is annually credited on assessments, AMI
all surplus over $500, 900 will be credited
to assessments OF persistent members of
seven years and upwards. The Guaran-
ty Fund is always available to meet
losses should the Mortuary and Reserve
Funds, in any emergency, prove made
quate.
3. The Creation Ola Reserve Fund.
The rate of assessment is in excess of
':lity under the American table OF
'ty, so that Is per cent. Of each
will be transferred to the Re-
:. That fund will be subject
, which the Mortuary Fund
is inadequ. ! to meet, should such mad
equacy ever ARISE. AT the end Of seven
years, and every year theresta !, divi-
sion Of one>seventh Of tho accuuuiatad
Reserve Fund will be ma lie and pad to
oil persistent members of seven years
and upwards, on the basis of their pay
ments to said fund.
4. The Creation Of 4 trust for the
custody of all the monies contributed by
tho members to the Guaranty fund or on
assessments.
The St. Paul Trust Co., ono Of the
strongest and most responsible lnstitu.
tlons Of the Northwest, is the Trustee o.
this company, and as such trustee col
lccts, holds, invests or pays out all mon
les paid by members on account of Guar
anty fund or on assessments, Every
dollar of these funds is beyond the con
trcl OF the Insurance company, save thai
all losses will be paid on its order.
The existence and administration O.
this trust makes it impossible that ont
dollar should be lost through the extrav
ayance or dishonesty of the Insurance
Company, its officers or agents.
The attention Of every thoughtful bus
lness man is invited to this distin guish
ing feature. y
$, The Admission Fees and Annua
.sDues are the only monies collected b,
the company or Its agents, and by thes
monies alone all the expenses Of the In
surance Company aud its agents arc t.
be met. The only charges against as
sessments are the Trust Co.'S COMMISSION
and collection expenses:
No Live Insurance Company in tn
world gives more reliable assurance 0
absolute safety and reasonable economy

Sound Q.

We advise all young people to
acquire in early life the habit of
using good language, both IL
speaking and writing, and also
to abandon titg Use Ut sl;ing
words and phrases, The longer
they live the more difficult the
acquisition Of good language
will be; and if the golden age of
youth, the proper time for the
acquisition of language, be pass
ed in abuse, the unfortunate
victim Of neglected education is
very probably doomed to talk
slang for life. Money is not
necessary to procure this elnea-
ton.
Every man has it in his power.
He has to use the language
which he reads. instead of the
slang which he hears to form
taste from the best poets Of the
country to treasure up choice
phrases i'll his memory, and
habitnate himself to their use,
avoiding at the same time that
pedantic precision and bombast,
which show rather the weakness
of vain ambition than the polish
of nm educated mind.

Henry Ward Beecher, in an
interview in New York Friday,
said in speaking Of the prospects
of tariff reform : 81 am inclined
to think that there will be no
great change in the revenue laws
this year. The manner in which
the pension list is being increas-
ed precludes the possibility OF
reducing the tariff for years to
come. ] think, as we are now,
every man who was in the war
is entitled to u pension. The
next step will be to pension the
uncles, nephews aud cousins to
the second or third degree. Pos.
sibly before our Legislators get
through they will pension every
man who was born within the
years that the civil war was rag.
ing iu this country. It looks tt
me as it Congress were merely
iuveuting a pension law as a
convenient peg Oh which to
hang up revenue reform

The following are the views
Of Grand Master Workman
Powderly, now 81 years of age,
aud the head of the Knights of
Labor organization, on the all
engrossing subject of strikes:
There is a feeling now that la
Dor must be recognized by the
employer, that the employer
must listen to the employees,
and the time has come when the
shopnlan, the mill-owner, the
manufacturer, in every depart
meut Of trade, is ready to listen
to the demands of the men, and
to yield to them when those de-
mauds are reasonable. Organi-
zatiou, discipline and realization
of the right and the might in
the case have brought about
these changes, and these adj
vances on the part of the en-
ployers should not be repulsed
by hasty and iuconsiderate &C
ton on the part of the working
men. The Knights OF
Labor, and labor organizations
i'll sympathy with its plans, con-
stitute at the present time the
most powerful organization OF
workingmen ever known in the
history of the world. Its
strength is increasing every dag,
and it's influence is felt in every
branch of trade in this country
1t is dangerous to abuse this
power. II eau always insist
upon Just demands, carefully
considered and thoughtfully di'
gested. 1t cannot afford to
fritter itself away upon every
little pretense of wrong, hastily
formulated and pig-headedly i'll
sisted upon.

The Island of Juan Fernandez,
upon which Alexander Selkirk,
the prototype OF Robinson CRU
soc, spent his four solitary years
has never since been inhabited
until twelve years ago, when
the present Gov. Rodt settled
upon it with u small colony.
Rodt is "a Switzer. ln 1866 he
fought for Austria against the
Prussiaus, aud in 1870 for
France. After the defeat of the
French he emigrated to Chill
aud made himself useful to the
government, at whose invitation
he undertook the colonization
OF Robinson Orusoe's lonely is
land. Here he has resided for
the last twelve years as Govern
orand judge. Most OF the set
tiers over whom he presides are
German aud Swiss. Nearly all
the vegetation Of the temperate
zone thriyes upon juan Fernan-
