murderers escaped to Mexico, and the
murdered mans body was found floating in

the decade before the war.
Benson John LOSING was born Feb. II,
1913, in Beekman, Duchess county, N. Y,
and his father died there when he WIS an
infant; SO the son was early apprenticed to
matchmaker in Poughkeepsie He
mastered the trade, worked at it some
years, and then became part owner Of the
Poughkeepsie Telegraph. In writing for
this he discovered his true vocation and
thereafter devoted his life to illustrations
in language and engravings. Having
mastered the engraver's art and worked
on various publications he began that
series Of works which made him famous.
In 1862 his Pictorial Field Book of the
Revolution" appeared in thirty numbers.
In 1901 he prepared for The Art journal,
of London, his series on the Hudson river
The Same years also he issued his Life
and Times of Philip Schuyler" In 1862 he
began his Pictorial Field Book of the
Civil War in the United States, which was
completed in 1869, contemporaneously with
similar work on the war Of 1s12-15. He
published twenty-five other works Of the
same nature. large and small, besides con-
tributing extensively to Harper's Maga-
zine and doing other literary work. He
leaves two sons, farmers, and q daughter

While insect products are not numerous
in comparison with the number of insects,
of which there are nearly SOC, 900 species
known, there are several of great CONNER
cial value. The silkworm is the most use
full of insects, furnishing the world an an
nual product of immense value The
yearly value of the cochineal produce runs
to Millions while many Of the gums
brought from the east are produced by the
insects piercing the barks of certain trees,
and thus causing the emulation. The
quantity Of honey annually stored up by
bees amounts to many millions of pounds,
and the wax is almost equally valuable.
Gallnuts, from which valuable kind of
ink is made, are caused by insects, while
more than one kind is used in medicine.
In some parts Of Asia and Africa q large
share Of the peoples food is supplied by
the swarms of locusts, SO that the insect
world really contributes largely both to the
comfort and luxury Of mankind.

oliver Goldsmith as . Married Man.

Pail Mall Budget tells that while rum
maging among the parochial archives of
slington Mr.. Edward Dayey, clerk of the
guardians, has found an old book which
gives some interesting facts about the IA
nous metropolitan district as it existed at
the beginning Of the present century.
Among other things it contains the census
return for Islington in 1901. The parish is
described as ''a merry village adjacent to
London, and a favorite resort for its citi-
zens," and the population is given as TO-
121. Now its Inhabitants number 35s 900.
Another entry in the curious volume has
raised a startling controversy among local
antiquaries. The genial Oliver Goldsmith
is generally supposed to have lived and
died bachelor. In Islington another ira
dition exists. It is to the effect that not
only had Oliver little habitation there
where he spent good deal of his time, but
by his neighbors he was regarded as re-
spectacle married citizen. In the recently
found book occurs the name of Mary OH
via Goldsmith, and it is stated that this
was none other than the poets daughter.

TO THE UNINSURED,

assume that you have already watched
the workings of life insurance, have dis
cussed it, thought about it, and have de-
cided to adopt its protection in your own
case. You are really going to do it,
good. But you have ship coming IN or a
speculation partly finished; or a building
partly up, or some other outlay that is
drawing on you; you will have a raise of
salary, or be otherwise better off, next
year: your partner is off, or sick, and you
are doing double duty just now; you are
about going away, or for fifty reasons
haven't the time at present, but
But you are not going to forget it or omit
it; you are certainly ''going to- do it.
Now-privately and contidentially with
yourself and looking yourself in the face
isn't the real reason that you are not yet
quite ready to encounter face to face the
disagreeableness of it; the deliberate in
vestment of money upon your own death,
the interview with physician whose bust
ness Is the unusual and creepy one (for
YOU of studying your possible weaknesses
and calculating how much longer you may
be expected to last!
Nothing strange if this is so; the strange
ness would be If it were not So For in this
respect we are all alike. To natural and
healthy constituted man-and perhaps all
the more if he has ties that make life much
and dear TO him-death is grisly prospect;
off, and he shrinks from action that Sc
riously calculates upon it. Thousands die
interstate, leaving the discriminating law
to rupture their wishes, because they fully
intended to make al will but shrank from
doing it: they did not look for death so
soon, but he was ready before they were,
and he never considers the conveniences
Not that they shared, or that you share
the vulgar notion that making will or in
suring life might bring death by attracting
his attention; but if you could only take out
the intended policy by merely writing a
check for the premium it would be different.
There is nothing to be ashamed of in this
feeling-it is only part of our common
humanity. But yielding to it is another
matter; that's the thing to be ashamed Of
Now stick pin here las the saying is)
and consider another point.
The tendency is more and more to divide
society into rich and poor and obliterate the
middle class. Retiring with fortune,
or even with living competency, is becom-
ing more and more dream, if realizable at
all, it takes larger part of life than FORM
erly. Test it by your own observation; by
that of others; by every commercial and
other record then say whether the num-
Der of persons who do more than make
living" is enough to make your chances Of
doing that worth considering. But life in
surance creates legacy Immediately by

The Life of Submarine Gables

A hard and fast law as to the life of
cable cannot be laid down, for the duration
of the sheathing wires is governed by mora
than one element. The quality of the gal.
vanizing, the presence or absence of such
protection as compound tapes. or hemp
and the physical and chemical nature Of
the bottom, are considerations which mus.
be taken into account. Submarine cables
may have a life of more than ten wears,
They can be successfully repaired at event
considerably greater age. There are now
in existence and in working order abou,
A, 900 knots of cables, having life of fifteen
years and over; of this amount some 2l,OOs
knots are twenty years (and over of age
There are several instances of cables nov
working over twenty-five years old, but
these are principally lines of unimportant
lengths, and lying in shallow water. Ths
cables we have cited, says The Electrical
Review, are laid in all portions OF the
globe, and submerged in all sorts of depths;
and although the companies owning them
have spent, and are prepared to expend.
considerable sums in repairs, we do not
think that the complete renewal Of each
section every ten years has entered into
their calculation. Present experience would
lead Us to allot to submarine cables laid
under favorable conditions an average life
of fsom thirty to forty years, but, as before
stated, no hard and fast figure can be given.

THE DOT ON THE |.

A Point In the Art Of Dsciphering Char
actsr fren HaAdwriting.
Do you put the dot high above the letter
II Do you put it close to the letter. Do
you send it flying beforei Is it fat, round.
Irregular In each case your popularity is
the outward and visible sign Of some lido
syncrasy, says master in the art of graph
ology. look at the dots Of your i; try to
make them different-smaller, Larger,
rounder, more oblong-you cannot do it
The dot above the only changes with your
character"
Here are some conclusions which the
authority quoted says the ladies may draw
from the telltale dot:
II you often forget to dot your you will
also forget other things which seem unim-
portant to you, but which for the comfort
of everyday life are as necessary as the dot
is to the i. If you have often to look in vain
for the dot you will also look often in vain
for other things, because you have not put
them in their proper place. For instance.
you put the fifth knitting needle into your
book because you were suddenly called
away and no better book mark was at
hand. You were anxious to finish your
sock-where is the fifth needle! The serv-
ant girl must have mislaid it while dust
ing. Servants are such a trouble. In Or
der to practice patience and self CONTROL you
knit on with four needles, gently pardon
ing" and presently turn back to your in
teresting novel. The book opens imme-
diately. and there and then the glittering
needle breaches silent sermon to you.
If the dot flies high above and far away
from the letter to which it belongs, your
hopes, thoughts, wishes and aspirations are
apt to fly about in far off regions, and in
stead of making practical use of the pres
emit day you dream of the ideals of the
future. If this ''high flown" dot is of an
oblopg shape; and if. in conjunction with
it, the loops of your ], h, 6, f, ETC., are loose
and long, then goodby symmetry and calm,
for you have very little self control.
If your husbands dots are heavy, shape
less and blotchy you will have hard time
of it where food is concerned. He will not
be satisfied with cold supper, an aesthetic
tea or a meal of beef and vegetables. On
the other hand, you have in his favorite
dishes means to pacify the grumbler, and
to incline him to listen to your wishes.
Your request for new gown, for theater
tickets, which was peremptorily refused
before dinner, is listened to with much
more interest after the man of the heavy
dots has had good meal. Never ask
such man to grant you favor when he
is waiting for his dinner. The larger the
dots appear the more critically dish will
be attacked and judged.
