Mutual Life Insurance Company of
New York:
DEAR SIR desire, through you, to
thank the Mutual Life Insurance Com
pany of New York for the promptness
with which they paid over to me the
sum of Ten Thousand Dollars, that be-
ing the amount for which the life of my
late husband, John h. Strous, was in
sured in your company. Though only
insured for the short space Of eight
months. they paid the entire sum before
the expiration of sixty days. which is
seldom done. l cannot find words to
express my feelings of gratitude to you
for inducing my husband to take out a
policy, thereby providing for myself, his
aged mother, and four little children.
L hope you may succeed in persuading
every married man in taking apolicy,
so that if it should please Providence to
call the father and husband, he could
die easier, knowing he was not leaving
his helpless family depending on stran-
gers.
Sincerely wishing the Mutual Life In
surance Company of New York all the
success it deserves, l am yours, most re-
spectfully, MARGARET j. STROUS.

seems to affect my own health ON this jour
ney. lt Is safe TO say that no European
traveller has never roughed it nearly so much
as have in Persia and Afghanistan, not even
Mr.. Nambery, of dervish and central Asia
fame; yet haven't even had so much as a
days indisposition. 1t must be chiefly
owing to tho healthful exercise of cycling.

ents in Persia, and, although travelling with
servant, canned soups, meats, biscuits, bed
ding and every comfort, they all had been
attacked with fever, dysentery or something,
while have shivered through chilly nights
on an empty stomach, slept out in drenching
dews and been worried inceSsantly by crowds

Young Lady Rescued from n Banu
OF Pcrfcctionists


OF Pcrfcctionists.
CINCINNATI, September Is. - About
two weeks ago the fanatic2l band of
Perfectionists" created sensation by
making a new and distinguished convert
Rev. DIR. l. Jerome, a minister from
London, Eng. The excitement attend
ing this affair has hardly died away be-
fore another startling incident is brought
to light. Miss Marie Address. a promi-
nent young lady of Walnut Hills, one of
the earnest believers in the strange
faith, has become a backslider. The
young woman has had "A terrible time To
escape from the clutches of Mrs. Martin,
the so-called Christ, and her parents fear
that she may yet return TO her strange
religion. Miss Address has for many
months been fascinated by the Perfec-
tionists. She is engaged to young gen
tleman in New York, whose efforts to
lead her away from the little band have
heretofore proved futile. On Sunday
night, September 4th, she was, after
much persuasion, induced to leave the
city, and is now at Salem, Ind, with her
mother. She has written letter sever
ing her connection with the Perfection
lists. but is said to be in pitiable frame
of MUD. She declares that Mrs. Martin
has predicted that she will die within
thirty days, and the female Christ has
charged her with committing the unpar-
donable sin by leaving the society. The
Perfectionists have put forth every effort
To find out the whereabouts of their re-
calcitrant member, but so far have been
unsuccessful.
The brother. sister and affianced of
Miss Address visited the Brooke resi-
dence where the meetings are held. and
demanded to see the girl. One of tn.
party passed through the windows an.
saw Mrs. Martin seated on a kind -.
throne surrounded by her faithful fol
lowers. She was eXpounding on friend
ship, and her remarks were directed par
tIcularly to Miss Address, who was sus-
pected of a disposition to follow her
lover and leave them. She was warned
that a terrible result would follow her
leaving the band, and the poor girl was
greatly terrified. She saw her lover. but
refused to accompany him. She is afraid
hat she is irretrievahly lost. Her fam
lily are watching her closely. and her
mother returned home tonight from
visit to her unhappy daughter.
LII the Perfectionists do not get hold
of her within the next thirty days her
relatives say she will make some start
ling developments. The Perfect people
are greatly exercised over the matter.
and Mrs. Martin heaps the most bitter
maledictions upon her former wor-
shiper.-Netr York World.
