While, Of course, the unprecedented success OF
the association IL largely aue TO the character
and zeal OF its agents, 10 Is mainly due 10 the
soundness OF its rock foundation, and above al
to the superb business and personal character OF
its president. His warm sympGthies toward all
who are around and about him. his extraordi-
nary confidence, enthusiasm, and pluck, his de-
votion to his work, his knowledge OF ami care

not only inspired all his officers aud soldiers. but
they have commanded the respect and admira-

COMPARISON.

The comparison Of the results OF the nrst
eleven years outside and beyond the three great
life.insurance companies In America-the Equi-
table. Mutual and Now York Life-with that OF
other lfe-insurance companies Is preposterous,
and even with these three 1t Is worthy OF note
that the amount OF business In force upon the
books OF the Mutual Reserve Fund Life Associa-
ton at the expiration OF the eleventh year ex-
ceeds the total business for the same period OF
time of these three great life-insurance compa-
MES com bined.
As q further evidence Of the care displayed in
the admission Of members, the economy exer-
cised In the administration OF Its business, and
the security offered for the protection OF its
contracts, the following iatios, compiled from
the sworn reports 10 the insurance departments,
will prove most convincing arguments upon
these important points in the administration OF
the AFFAIRS Of this association, and especially so
wnon the attention Is called TO the fact that
these comparisons are made with the three
strongest and largest old-sys,em companies IN
the world.

The Antiquity of Geese.

There is much curious amusement to
be had in tracing where the foodstuffs
we use and the domestic animals we eat
or use, originally came from. Professor
Max Muller, reasoning through his sci
ence of words, finds that the goose was
domesticated very early, or at least some
bird like it.
Goose in English, ganse in German;
dropping the & according to the laws of
language, the word becomes anser in
Latin and correspondingly in Greek,
with the aspirate that marks the Digam-
ma vas dropped, and so back to S in
the Sanscrit. Our prehistoric Sanscrit
ancestors of the Indian fable lands. had
geese. Professor Muller, therefore, con
cludes birds resembling them closely,
though thousands of years the name has
remained, varying only according to the
known laws of the change of %pronuncia'
ton, and probably the livingston
throughout behind the name Such i:

Swallowed Fifty Knives.

There are several we'll authenticated
accounts Of knife swaliow.!y. as distin-
guished from the sword swallowing
feats of itinerant jugglers. In the Edin-
burgh Philosophical Journal is reported
the case of an American sailor, John
Cummings. who swallowed at different
periods within the space of two years
about fifty clasp knives. When he was
twenty-three years of age he was on
shore with some of his comrades at
Havre, where he witnessed the feats OF
a conjurer who pretended to swallow
knives. When he returned to his ship
he swore that he could swallow knives
as easily as the Frenchman had. and. be-
ing challenged, took his own knife and
swallowed it. He then offered to swat
low all the knives they would bring him,
and eventually swallowed three.
This feat he afterward performed sew
eral times, and in Boston. in 1905, he
swallowed in one evening no fewer than
fourteen knives, after which he was
taken so i'll that he had to be removed tc
Charlestown hospital. He was after
ward taken by the English ship Isis fol
smuggling. and on Dec. 4, 1905. he swal
lowed twelve knives, which terminated
his career after a long and terrible i'll
ness. He died in March, 1907, in ex
IRENE agony, at Guys hospital.

Killed by Preacher, skinned by DeaC

Killed by Preacher, Skinned by Deacon.
DIR. Harmon Jones tells a good story
which actually occurred in The early
settlement of this county. During those
days the Usage Indians prowled around
in these woods. and bears, panthers and
wild cats were plentiful. 1t was the
custom to carry a gun most everywhere.
There was always a few who carried
their guns to church on Sunday morn
ing. One Sunday Rev. Stephen Ham
was preaching down on Loutrie. 1t was
a back in the 20s. While the Rev.
Mr.. Ham was closing his sermon with a
red hot e%xhortation he saw a deer pass
the window. He stopped preaching,
told his audience to keep still, picked uE
an old rifle and went out and killed the
deer. He completed his sermon while &
couple of the deacons skinned the deer.
DR.. Jones went home with one of the
| deacons to dinner, and says he never ate
| better ~venison in his life. Dock is nov
se~venty-seven years old, and has been 1

ffty-three years. He practiced medicine

n BIarney Stone.

The village of Blarney is in the south
of Ireland, about four miles from Cork.
Blarney castle was built by Cormack
MacCarthy. the Strong, fourth lord of
Muskerry, about. the middle of the
Fifteenth century. The ruins of the
famous old fortress are visited by thou
sands of tourists every year. This Is
largely on account of a~tradition which
has been attached for some centuries to
one of the stones Used in building the
castle. This stone is said to commune
cate to the tongue that touches 1t the
gift of gentle, ~insinuating speech, and
that has given rise to the accusation
when any one is of particularly sweet
