If the testimony of the local land men counts

Searle, of the firm of Johnson C Co.. said yes-
terday that he had found 1t necessary to add
six men to his Office force to attend to busi

pie are coming in from other states, and even
from the southern and central portions of
Minnesota, to the productive northern part.

He fnds much wisdom in the action of the

that large numbers of people are encouraged
to come to the state and populate the excel

What Your Body is Worth. :.

Among the lower classes lives do
not bring much money. For in
stance, in Japan a 'rickshaw man
will pull one around forty miles a
day for 6 sen, or $l2 a year. This
kills him in five years--his life is
worth about $50.
In more civilized lands ones body
IS rated higher. Insurance compa-
MES will value Il mans life accord
ing to the premium he is willing to
pay. Many rich men have enrich
ed their families $4,000 by dying.
One insurance company counts the
loss Of a mans leg $4,000; one eye,
$3.50; both hands or both feet, $4,000
The United States government
gives a solder who loses both eyes
a pension of S7.5 month for life.
For the loss Of thesight ofone eye
he gets only $l2. The loss Of both
hands entities a soldier to 500 a
month; both feet S75;an arm Or leg,
S45.
Last winter in New York a man
got verdict for $3.50 because an
other man pulled out half his whis-
kers. This puts an estimate ofS5O0
on a good beard. Juries have rated
arms and legs up to $4,000. An
Iowa man got verdict for $3.50 for
sn ear lost in a. railway accident.
An English jury gave a man $500
for broken nose, while, on the
other hand, an Ohio jury awarded
| cent damage to man who had
suffered the indignity of having his
nose pulled.-Chicago Record.
