THE MAJORS ACCIDENT POLICY

PPM not feeling very we'll today, said
Major Hostlemsn, the southern sporting
man, as he leaned YEARLY against the
marble rail of a Park Row cafe. "I'm in
need of tonic and have been for the
past two days, and it's all my own
blanked fault. Up TO a week ago l was
happy, free and light-hearted, money was
at flood tide, friends numerous and New
York immense, and liked your whisky
during the waek, but on Sundays enjoyed
that of Long Beach or Manhattan better.
What has changed all tnis?" continued
the major, as he reached for his tonic.
WELL the story is simple enough. I met
a fellow, good-looking, bright-talking
me and we became firm friends. One day
he came to my hotel and wore one OF
those worried faces that mako you think
of hired mourner. We mad been scorch-

Just slip that 1 didn't count, but he
brought that fact up again, and with his
talking about the jeopardy to my life and
all ttat rot. We'll, 1 swallowed the bait,
hook, line and sinker, and when he
showed me an accident insurance policy
just fell into the trap. He had friend
who would see that got insured against
injury at low rates.;
1.-THE long aud short of it was that
took out policy for $40, 900 and felt good
about it until the policy came home.
There was polite note enclosed asking
me to carefully read all the printed mat
ter on the policy, and that is what makes
me feel so glum.. There is an exception

In the Albany Times some thirty years
ago was the following advertisement
which shows the value placed on wives
at that time:
Three dollars reward will be paid to
whoever will cause the return to me OF
my wife Mary. She is of middle size,
| light completion, sreckies on her face,
| light hair. Is about l5 years of age and
of u loving disposition, and had on

WILLIAM SNOW,
Lodge and Maiden SITS.
In an English newspaper OF 1916 there
was an advertisement, evidently inserted
by householder VINO had improved his
dwelling for the benefit of grasping
proprietor. 1t runs thus:
Wanted, Immediately. to enable me to
leave the house which l have for the last
five years inhabited in the same plight
in which l found it, 500 live rats, for
which 1 will gladly pay the sum of five
pounds sterling, and. as l cannot leave

least 5. 600, 900 docks (weeds,) l do hereby
| promise fnrther sum of five pounds of
| sad mum Der of docks. N. B.-The rats
must be full grown and no criipples.
But for dry humor American advertis
ing bears away the palm, and with the
advertisement is sometimes mingled nc
Ettle ingenuity. A story IS told of 6
orewer of Pennsylvania whose favorits
place for advertising was the fence of g
graveyard, where he inscribed in large
white letters: "Use Jones' bottled ale II
you would keep out of here.'
