The Statement Of the New York Life
Insurance company, which we publish In
another column, Is especially interesting
reading this year. The Company has
just undergone, at the hands Of the In.
surance Department Of New York, the
most searching and rigid examination
ever known in the history Of insurance in
this country. This examination shows q
clear surplus for the company of over
$l5 ,O00,O 900, and establishes It's claim to
be one Of the strongest and most pros
porous companies In existence. In spite
of the difficulties with which 1t has had
to contend, 1t has written over $3.50, OO0,.
900 In new insurance during the past year.
The election of John A. Mccall as presi-
dent, in connection with the appointment
Of such men as Charles s. Fairchild,
William c. Whitney and Woodbury. Lang.
don as trustees, has placed the manage
ment Of the New York Life Insurance
company above criticism and has assured
its increased prosperity in the future.

The system of education in practice
among the Swiss is enlightened and far
reaching. Not only are pupils under a
strict and kindly discipline while at
school, but they are also made to feel
that the warning and protecting care OF
their tutors is over them whenever they
are outside the fathers house. AS soon
as the child is in the street he has passed
from the circle of his home, and that
moment begins the schools authority.
Regulations, printed on slips and
dropped in every house, contain, among
a score of others equally sensible, the
following rule relating to outdoor man.
ners:
Delay of any kind between the
scholars home and school is not al
lowed. No whooping. yelling, throwing
stones and snowballs, teasing children
or ridiculing age and deformity can be
endured. Grown persons shall be met
with civility as they pass. Thus shall
honor be reflected on the school,"
Once in the classroom the pupil is
taught department as we'll as his three
"R's." He is told how to walk, stand
and speak, and blot upon his book and
q smudge on his face are regarded as
equally bad.-Youth's Companion.

Hnere woman mas tho advantage
Whatever disadvantages a woman
lawyer may be under in The practice of
her profession, she has certain compen-
sating advantages which her brothers at
the bar can never enjoy. a little Incl
dent in the chambers part of the supreme
court the other day will illustrate this
point. 1t was Monday, which is always
the busiest day of the week i'll this
branch of the court. There was an I'M
usually long calendar this day, and al
though it was almost / o'clock the court
room was still crowded with fifty or
sixty lawyers, who had been waiting inn
patiently since / o'clock to argue their
motions or to get lex parte" orders
signed. There was an unusually large
pile of these orders on the judges desk
waiting to be signed, because his honor
had been so busy that he had been I'M
able to attend to them.
A modest looking, neatly dressed young
woman came into the courtroom with
some legal papers i'll her hand. She
walked up to the rail, while the clerk
quickly came forward, all attention.
He took the papers which she carried
and handed them to the Judge immed1-
ately, while the court officers hustled
around and brought her "a chair. The
arguments of the legal lights were
stopped, his honor took the papers,
glanced over them quickly and put
some hieroglyphics, which stood for his
signature, at the bottom of them, the
clerk handed the documents back to the
young woman, and in less than five
minutes after she entered the court
room the woman lawyer had accom-
