And the end Of the worlds fair Sunday
opening question u not yet. II Will be
remembered that during the early part
Of the fair application WAS made by some
OF the Sunday opening enthusiasts for
an injunction restrainlng the directors OF
the fair from closing the gates on sun
day. The Injunction Was granted by .
Hebrew Judge, Who II on the bench OF
the Illinois state court to which the ap-
plIcation Was made. The matter caused
considerable comment ut the time, but
had gone out Of mind with most people.
Now Il IL suggested that II the directors
close the gates on Sunday, the court
may inforce the epjunction and open
them. Such action would put the d.
rectors In rather . ridiculous position.
After stubborn fight for Sunday open
ing they succeeded In carrying their
point. Then experience convinced them
that Sunday opening didn't pay, and
forgetting all their hne arguments In Be
half OF the poor laboring man. they
voted to close the gates on Sunday, to
save themselves from financial loss. II
after all that old injunction that they
secured should .kick" and compel them
to open the gates at loss TO themselves
it would be amusing.

At age 70 the usual 81 900 life insurance
policy in he 90 payment endowment plan
costs $4s. In case of death you get only
81. 600. The rule is your money is lock
ed up for 20 years, and then you are
guaranteed only the reseve or legal value
By any company.
The twenty payment guaranty OF the
Union Central Life Insurance Co., costs
at age twenty-five, annually for twenty
years oaIy s45 for 81, 600; and besides giy-
ing pa'd-up policy for $500 the 3rd
year when you have paid out only sl35,
and if not taken the $4,000 policy remains
in force four years and two hundred
and five days thereafter, ii you desire 1t;

guarantees you III cash Oh your po,lcy.

if you die that year, receive your $4,000

Thus the 9Th and each year thereafter,
orr guaranty policy pnts ths reserve, or
full legal value. at YOUR command. No
company can possibly do more. 50 why
pay more for $1,000 insurance than We
ch !, ge for 900, especially since We keep
the reserve at your command at any time
after the 9Th year?
The Goth year you have a $1,000 policy
due at death and it can never cost you
any more and you may at any time get
the reserve as loan on it or as a cash
surrender value
Tnere is not an estimate in our suaran-
