INSURANCE EDITOR:
What is the meaning of "Ton-
tine" or Tontine Dividends as ap-
piled to life insurance.
r. L. S.
The Tontine system of dividends,
ss applied to life insurance is, that
all policies which are entitled to a
participation in dividends in the
same calendar year, form speci-
al dividend class with a special
dividend fund composed of all the
dividends on all policies belong.
ing to such class, usually 10, Is or
20 year period; the fund being
credited with such interests and
profits as the Company itself may
realize. Besides the dividends on
all policies iapsed before said an
niversary will accrue to the re-
spective dividend fund, thus
greatly enhansing the value of
the life insurance contract as an
investment to those who may sur
vive to participate in said fund.
This system is called "Tontine"
after the name of its inventor, a
Physician by the name of Lorenzo
Tonti.

MASONS IN THE WAR.
Noted for Their IntensC Patriotism-
Many of Them Enlist and Lodges
Are Formed.

A large proportion of the soldiers
who have gone or are making ready to
go to the war are masons, an order
universally noted for its intense pa
triOtism, says the Chicago Chronicle.
The lodge" has been made to cover a
multitude Of small sins by those who
needed convenient excuse to be alb
are none the less strongly attached to
it. The question has been asked what
masonic soldiers do III lieu OF lodge
meetings.
They don't do without them" said
Secretary Laftcn. of the Wisconsin
grand lodge of masOEs, recently, when
approached on the subject. why, dur
ing our last war they had masonic
lodges in the army. Some of the grand
lodges granted dispensations for the
organization of lodges.
IF the army was near city they
rented halls for meetings. If they
were not near any city they held their
sessions In an officers tent. Officers
of the army in many cases were mem
bers of the masonic fraternity, and it
was an easy thing to have the tent in
which the meeting was held sufficient
ly protected from intrusion. Guards
were posted and no one was allowed
within hearing distance unless they
could pass the guard, who of course
was a mason selected for the occa-
siOnr

The name of Kalamazoo, ike Osn-
kosh and one or two others, has come
to be to foreigners a synonym OF
American absurdity, 1t is often chos-
en-. for some occult reason. to illustrate
that form of vernacular English
known as United States.
But ali thought of ridicule vanishes
when its romantic origin is considered,
for it is the echo still lingering about
the memory of two dusky lovers, who,
in that long-gone time when Michigan
was the home mainly of Indian tribes,
lived and loved on the banks of the
river which now bears their names.
Kahla, the young warrior, was
straight of limb and eagle-eyed, while
Mahzoo had been given by the Great
Spirit the many graces and virtues for
which Indian maidens have become
noted in song and legend. Life to these
two possessed all the charms which
true affection has ever granted to
lovers, and the days, as they came and
went. brought only abounding JOY.
Each summer evening. as the twi-
light deepened and the time drew near
for her lovers return from the chase,
the maiden watched from her bower
~ the swaying branches of a giant elm
overhanging the rivers edge for the
first sign of his coming. As the bow Of
his canoe shot round the curve away in
the distance her clear musical voice
called to him: Kahla. Kahla!" and
from the young warrior came in loving
tones the response: "MahZOo!'
