advisory board for something over
$4,000 on account of the death of Peter
Brown. There is no question but that
it will be paid promptly to the bene-
ficlaries. Knowing that the only thing

and apply to the regular physician for
examination. Man seeks to protect
his loved ones from want and charity.
