LIFE !. INSURANCE !!
THE WASHINGTON : LIFE
OF NEW YORK.

kTANY YEARS have elapsed since life
mi insurance passed beyond its inchoate
and experimental stage to become in
corporated in the texture of our social, COM
mercial and business life, as one of the most
important interests of the common-weal, In
single year-1s91-s1 90. 900, 900 was paid to
the widows and orphans and the holders of
endowment policies by the life insurance COM
panies of this country. More than $500, OOO-
600 are invested for the owners of policies, to
protect estates, and 10 safeguard the loved in
mates of thousands of American homes.
To-day, wise and far-seeing investors not
only recommend life insurance in strong terms,
but they do more. By becoming purchasers
of policies of various kinds and for varying
amounts, running along the line of from one
thousand dollars to many hundreds of thous-
ands on individual lives. they have expressed
their exact estimate of the value and advant-
ages of life insurance.
To one who has become convinced that he
needs the protection, and who would avail him.

ance, the selection of company in which to
insure, is q question Of far greater moment
than the ''kind of policy" the special induce

The president of company recently said to
a number of assembled agents. "Size is not
of the first Importance compared with strength
in the vital parts.' This sentiment Is correct
beyond question. The wonder is that the pub

REGRET.

There is spirit weird and bold
Who shadows Oft the sunshines gold,
Who walks beside us, ever here,
With backward glance and sighingS drear.
Within the day he stands alone,
And meets our smiles with but a moan,
And shakes his head when garlands bright
In Hopes warm grasp CLEAN gay with light.
Unsatisfied amid the day,
He grieves for what has passed away;
He fills our night with hours of pain,
For things that cannot come again.
In warnings for some broken dream,
He crosses DER the Past's deep stream,
And never looks with courage brave
To where the light shines ON the grave.
A phantom grim beside my chair,
He droops his wings in dark despair,
With bony fingers points the way
Where lies the ghost of some glad day.
love him not, this spirit grim,
Whose weary eyes with tears O'erbrim,
Though when he steals within my room,
/ yet do greet him mid the gloom.
For oft he blends to whisper near,
Like ravens croakings strangely drear,
When in the past some joy is seen,
These saddest words, ut might have BEEN"
All. me how soon he finds a way,
Till in the grave to by us stay!
He leaves them not the ones he's met,
This CHASTITY thing we name Regret.

penny near the site of the Ira Mead

HSdrangea PanicuIata.

No plant so quickly resents neglect;
none other so amply rewards care and at
tention. It is gross feeder and must
have an abundance Of food and water.
1t also roots deeply and profusely, as all
gross feeding plants do. Therefore its
requirements are deep, rich and rather
light soil. It must be also a damp or
moist one, and when planted in a natu-
rally dry or sandy soil slight mulching
is absolutely necessary to retain moisture
about the roots. sf
In addition to this, a matter almost
generally neglected is in cutting the
plants well back in spring. Each branch
should be cut back to within one bud of
the main stem. Large fine plumes will
never appear on old wood. AS the buds
appear all weak branches should be cut
out. This is as essential as the disbud-
ding of the rose or chrysanthemum for
large flowers, says The Florist Exchange
By cutting the young growth back, or
rather by nipping the leading bud, about
the list of June new branches will form,
which will come into flower in Septem-
Der, thus prolonging the season Of
bloora.
