struck by lightning last night, but al

PLAN NO. 9

This plan is also new one TO The
farmers of Minnesota. It has the life
insurance features of plan No. |, but
on an entirely different plan. Like
plan No. l, in the event of the death
OF the borrower, the family has no
mortgage to pay. BY this plan the
loan may run from one to five years,
or 10 years if desired. Or the Dor
rover may pay off the loan on INSTALL
ments as he may desire, or be in a
position to make "a payment on the
principal. The rate of interest Is 7
per cent. and is payable only once a
year. We give the following figures
to illustrate the plan and show it's ad-
vantages, using as a basis a ST. 1000
loan and 200 life insurance for a
man IS years of age, the endowment
life rate plan. The premium on the
insurance policy for five years is
$l13.75; amount of loan, ST 900; mort
cages would be given for $1,ll3 IS.
Interest at per cent. on $lll3.75 is
$77.90 per year, for years, amounts
to 1893 80. To this add expenses etc.,
for making the loan, $50; total amount
to pay, ST. 1885. At the end of 5
years the borrower may surrender
his policy and receive pail up policy
for $l2G; leaving the actua'cost of the
loan al 81 ,307.55. Or he may continue
his insurance in force for the full
amount upon the payment of $S26 SO
per year.
Under the old plans now in vogue a
$1,000, 5 years loan would cost the
borrower, provided he paid off his
loan when due, about $l,490, and he
would not have the protection of the
insurance. In the event of death, he
would receive no return as he will in
our plan No. 2. The rates of insur
ance will always depend on the age of
the insured.
We are the exclusive agents of the
company introducing these plans, for
the counties of Stevens, Pope, Big
Stone and Traverse.
We can also lean money on several
other plans, at low rates of interest,
and on very liberal terms, which in
tending borrowers will find it TO their
advantage to investigate.
We solicit the public's patronage.

SUGIGrLEIHC< NEW
And Of Much Interest to
Farmers.

We can now offer to farmers desir-
ing TO borrow money .on their farms,
OF desiring to renew maturing mort.
gag S, the best plans ever offered TO
The fl mers of Minnesota. Our plans
are these:
PLAN NO. /.
Ry this plan the farmer insures his
life, pays one years pre- mim9 in adj
vance, Cor the first premium may be
deducted from the amount borroWed)
the remaining premiums are paid in
nine annual payments. He also pays
interest once year on the amount OF
money borrowed at the rate Of 7 Per
cent. per annum. by this plan at the
end OF ten years his m ortgage will be
satisfied, without any further pay
mentS, and in the event Of his death.
any time before ten years (eVen
should lie die the day after executing
papers) his mortgage will be satisfied.
ii insurance policy pays off the
mortgage, thereby his family have a
home. If the policy should be a
greater amount than that of the lo9n,
the difference will be paid to his fam
lily. The notes given for the pre-
MUM for insurance and the Interest
of the loan contains condition in
substance rs above. No note is re-
Quired for the principal of the loan.
We give few figures illustrating the
superior advantages of this plan over
all others. The following figures are
made on basis 81 900 loan for 10
years, and ST 200 insurance for a man
of 50 years old, the insurance policy
being il straight 10 years policy.
THE OLD WAY.
Interest on 1000 at per cent. for
10 years, 5000 The principal being
due to be paid, 81 600. The original
expense, agents commission, record
ing, abStracting etc, say $40. Total
| paid in 10 years, 81 $40. There being
S94O paid tor interest, expenses etc.
If the borrower should die before the
loan is paid off. the chances are 10 to
l that his family will lose their
! home. Now compare the above fig
ures with OUR NEW PLAN, the Dor
rover being 50 years old takes out a
$1,000, 10 years endowment policy.
The annual premium is $89.N4 il year,
wOnld amount to $890.40. The inter
est on his loan at per cent. would lie
SO Il year, in 10 years would be 500.
The expense of making the loan.
agents commissions ETC., would not
exceed 80. The total cost to pay
off mortgage, $l,620.40. This illus
tratiNn shows II net saving to the Dor.
rover of 1919 60. Quite an item.
Besides this, if the borrower should
die bt fore the maturity of the loan
his life being insured-his insurance
policy pays eff the loan, thereby his
family have no mortgage to pay. This
is another advantage IN FAVOR OF
OUR NEW PLAN that farmers should
look into. Fly this plan the borrow
has lSt, the advantage Of a low rate
of interest; End, the privilege of pay
ing eff his loan in small annual in
stalIments; 3rd, he has to pay his in
terest only once year; 4;h insurance
on his life so that in case of his deal
his family is relieved of the
burdens OF the mortgage on Their
homes. The home is paid for. AL
for Il lower rate of interest and on bet
ter terms than has been ever before
offered.

The Eiffel tower is getting decidedly
what may be called "aggravating." Do
what you will, you cannot get rid of it
wherever you go, there it is staring
you in the face. If you try to turn your
back upon it, all along the boulevards
and the principal streets are Eiifel tow
ers of every size, devoted to every pur-
pose, from tiny charms for watch chains
to large clocks for halls. If you fly to
the country around Paris, there it is
at every turn, looming down from the
clouds-a nightmare cobweb, hanging in
the skies. If your horizon is bounded
by tiny suburban gardens, there again
are miniature Eiffel towers, with little
flags on the top, in exasperatingly bad
taste: If a tall woman goes down q
street, the gamins run after her shout
ing: "Mme. Eiffel! Nine. Eiffelw And.
of course, the high notes of the new So
prano, Nine. Melba, soaring into the
skies up to G in alt, are called "des
notes Eiffel." Oh! who will deliver us
from the Eiffel towerl But there it is,
and one cannot help looking at it; and
there are the people swarming like in
sects in what seems mere piece of iron
network; and there are the lifts, in sem
blance Of small white houses, cIincing
TO the Orders like caterpiIlars on a wall,
crawling upward and downward. MUIR

urday 20 visit his son. Sheriff HalfOrd &C
corded TO him all the courtesy that was in

necessarily held before the keeper placed
over the prisoner, and was Of such a nature
as 70 cause all to shed tears Three times
the father and son met, one on the outside,
the other on the inner side Of the cell, be-
fore either one, chOked by sobs and tesrs,
could utter word. Whatever has OF can
be said about BrysOn. the one fact is estab
hshed that the love existing between son
and parent Is q strong redeeming quality
IN him. The father. broken down with
sorrow at seeing his son in the position be

glance at him shows the stock he came
from-the old Scotch stock, rigid in prinei-
pie. Presbyterian in faith, honesty and in
tegrity imprinted on every ligAment of his
features. Mr.. David BrysOn came from
Howick, where he has lived for the last
thirty years. he and his wife are still
living together with the seven children
born "a them George was the youngest Of
the boys, and there are but two daughters
younger than him. From Mr.. Bryson we
learn that Howick is a town of about eight
hundred or nine hundred inhabitants, and
within its confines are two manufactures,
three hotels, six carpenter shops
four blacksmith shops, three churches and
nine stores. Mr.. BrysOn keeps n temper

censed auctiOneer. George lived with him
at home until his 18th year, when be left

when at home George was known as a
good boy and dutifnl son, very industrious
and one of the favOrite boys of the village. |
After he left home he was regular cor

Shortly after the recent death OF Allan
