For the first eighteen months existence OF

During the said eighteen months we had

The first assessment was only 10 cents on

And this assessment was made when we
had only about $3.50. 600 OF Insurance written
The second assessment was made in last

Mad with n Mirror.

Some years ago there was a mission
ary bazaar held in q Christian city in
aid of the African mission. When the
bazaar was finished, it was found that
q number of articles were left unsold.
Some of them, it was thought, would
be very handy for the mission, 40 1t
was decided to send the lot out to
Africa. Among other things was a
box of little hand-mirrors, that had
been given by merchant. Looking
glasses seemeh queer things to send to
a foreign mission however, they were
sent, and became the most useful arti-
cles there. The mirrors took the peo-
ple's fancy, and their fame was carried
far beyond the station.
The knowledge of this wonderful
thing came to princess of a distant pow
erful tribe. She had never beheld her
dusky countenance, except as double
silhouette in placid lake, and she
longed to behold all her charms, for,
being a princess, she was told by
everybody that she was most beautiful;
whereas, she was one of the pIanest
women in the whole tribe. A messen-
ger was dispatched for one of the mir
IOIS, WHlCu uC plOSulCo cSuo az ouCC
returned to his mistress.
When she got possession of it she
did not look into it at once, but took
herself off to own place, that she
might have a good long look at her
beauty. When she beheld herself as
she was with one blow of her royal
hand she dashed the glass to pieces.
She ordered the missionaries off her
territory, and published and edict fo:-
bidding looking-glasses being brought
into the country.
Are there not many in other lands
who are in a similar condition with
regard to their souls? When they are
brought face to face with Gods look
ing-glass, with the hideousness of their
sin, and they cannot deny the fact,
they blame the mirror, seek toavoid it,
and destroy it that they may lay the
fiattering falsehood to themselves that
they are not 30 ugly as they appear.
