The General Fdnd.

The disposal of the General Fund
of Lodge is a matter that rests
wholly with the Lodge itself.
Whether or not it shall be paid out
as sick benefit is to be regulated
by the laws which the Lodge shall
enact. The real purpose of the Or
der is to afford relief to those who,
in sickness, are unable to provide
for themselves the necessary care
and attention, and is not in the ma
ture of sick or accident policy at
all. The difficulty seems to lie chief
ly in the language of "sick benefit"
which should read "siclt relief" and
should be so worded that only those
who, by sickness or accident, are
made to suffer for want OF money to
help themselves would be entitled to
it. Bylaws should be changed 80
as to cover such eases only. AS they
now read n member by sickness or
accident can comply fully with the
letter of the law, but in having
means to care for himself be wholly
at variance with its spirit when he
applies for relief w a s h / ~ 9 I o "a

There are too many Orders to-day
competing in the field for members
to expect persons to voluntarily come
and knock at our door for admission
We must go after them, present our
plan to them and solicit them TO be
come members. There is no use tc
feel discouraged If, upon the first
presentation, we are not successful
the next interview may win. There
is plenty of good material in every
community yet unsolicited, and al
that is wanted is proper effort to Sc

beware Of Cheap Goods.

The following is an extract from a
circular letter issued recently by
Grand Recorder, G. p. Hitch, of Hi
nois, one of the oldest and ablest Of
ticials in the Order:
1.-The field is now full of so-called
fraternal insurance societies, making
false propositions to prospective
members, and offering protection at
much less than actual cost. The So
licitor will promise that the rates
will remain cheap for five, ten, or
perhaps fifteen years, and some 9TH
cr new Order will come along then,
and with rates equally as cheap take
up the member and csrrry him
through until death. | would ask
that you consider the uncertainties
of your being able to pass medical
examination after the pretended in
surance society has been forced to
wind up the affairs of the concern,
caused by lack of business iudg-
ment
No merchant can sell goods for
less than cost and continue in bust
ness unless backed by immense capi-
tai, and the same is true of fraternal
insurance societies-the good can not
be sold for less than cost, and you
well know that organizations OF the
above nature have no reserve to
draw from, and consequently the
rates must be high enough to satisfy
all claims from month to month. Be
ware of any insurance that is cheap,
as this, like all other lines of bust
ness, can not prosper if sold for less
than cost.
The Ancient Order of United
Workmen has established rates
which will for all time pay the death
claims. Experience has been our
teacher, and on that experience our
rates are fixed. In conclusion, urge
you to protect your loved ones and
Join the Ancient Order of United
Workmen, the grandest fraternal
Order in existence to-day"

The Supreme Court of Iowa has
recently decided that certificates in
traternal insurance Orders like the
Ancient Order of United Workmen,
cannot be assigned. a case was
taken UP from the Polk District by
Mrs. G. ID. Crockcr in an action
against Mrs. Anna Hogan, benehc-
larry named in the certificate. She
Joined her husband in the assign
ment Yet the Court decided that
the assignment of the policy by Mr..
and Mrs. Hogan to Mrs. G. ID. Crock
er was illegal.

Persons who are troubled with in
digestion will he interested in the
experience of VIM. H. Penn, chief
clerk in the railway mail service at
Des Moines, Iowa, who writes: at
gives me pleasure to testify to the
merits of Chamherlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy,
For two years | have suffered from
indigestion, and am subject to fre-
quent severe attacks OF pain in the
stomach and bowels. One or two
doses of this remedy never fails to
give perfect relief. Price 25 and so
cents; sold by T. J. A. Flaws.

EP- 1t seems that a few members
are under the impression that the
half-rate certificate is a detriment
instead of benefit to the Order.
This impression is erroneous. The
Hooster WdtchBtdu, of Indiana,
says that in 1896 there was a net loss
of twenty-tour in the tull-rate class,
while gain of 35S was made in the
halt-rate class. From this it will be
seen that had the hali-rate certifi-
cate not been in force a net loss
would have resulted in Indiana.
~ 1t has been claimed by some
members that insurance companies
never change their rates. Rates
have been raised, taking effect Jan.
Ist, 1898, in what is called the big
Three the Equitable, New York
and Mutual Life companies. They
claim that the decrease in interest
rates" demands that the rates be in
creased.
ES Make up your mind to give
your newly elected officers hearty
and earnest support. They may
not be the Brothers you thought
best fitted, or that you in the first
instance wanted, but they are the
choice of your Lodge, and it is now
your duty TO give them your loyal,
hearty, support.
Eg" a note from the Recorder of
Nevada Lodge No. S, of Reno, says
the Lodge begins the new year with
an even one hundred members and
Indications for prosperity and a
steady growth in the future We're
never better. The Lodge installed
its new officers Tuesday evening.
~ South Dakota closed the year
1897 with only eight assessinents,
thus making record of three con-
secutive years of only eight ASSESS
ments for each Of these years, or
only S4 cost each year for the past
three years on each $1,000 protection.

why Won shouid Not Become Sus
npuded

I. The same argument that caused
you to take out your policy still OBJ
tains, but with additional force, since
you are older.
2. Should you lapse now you Will
have to pay higher premium in
any other company if you carry
your insurance from the time of lap
sing, and if you wish other insur-
ance in the future it will cost you
more.
3. Should you give up your poll
cy now you may not be able to re
new it at another time. You may
unconsciously have developed some
disease which will prohibit your
being accepted as good risk.
a. The minute you become unin-
sured, if you have the proper re-
gard for your family, you must be-
come anxious as to their future, and
this will unfit you for some of your
duties.
S. a policy has always a cash
value like any other piece of prop
erty, and by lapsing it you lose this
interest, which is always consider
able.
8. If you drop your insurance
you may die before you think you
can carry some ether or before re-
newing the old policy. There are
many cases on record where a man
has died within few weeks. after
dropping his life contract and left
his family without any visible
means of support. The very fact
that you are poor is an additional
reason for you to leave no stone un.
turned to get together the premium
of policy already in torce.-Black
and White.

A Traitor Expelled.

A. H. Fell, a member of the y. ..
u. w. in Delaware, was recently
expelled for attempting to betray
the members of his Lodge into the
hands of old-line insurance compa,
nies. This is heroic treatment, and
is commendable. 1t is said that at a
recent meeting of the Supreme
Council Of a similar organization il
was found that one who was en-
deavoring 70 secure high national
office held a prominent position with
"a large insurance company. His
aspirations tailed to- materialixe.

There have been issued 1872 Benehc-

reduced sum. Wisconsin, New

not require any relief or it will be a
very small amount compared with
last year. Other Jurisdictions, like
kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, etc,
will also net be short as large an
