Strength. Lies, In the Masses

These three things are really worth
something to have discovered. It Is
worth great deal, not only to Europe
but to the Orient, TO know that poverty rs
weakness and wealth is strength; that
strength does not consist in the uareient-
Ing orders Of a kaiser. but In the patriotic
impulse and characteristic determfnation
Of well-fed citizens. This also Is worth
something to our own country. Our mil
honaires and employers have not sufficient

prosperity depends on the welfare OF the

En- Route to Catalina

A telegram was received last night at
the Hollenbeck, from ]. Waldere Kirk,
otherwise known as "the king of the
dudes engaging a suite of rooms. He
will favor Los Angeles with glimpses of
his Kaleidoscope wardrobe for but a
short time, as he is bound for Avalon,
at which place he can display himself
to the admiration of the ladies there as
sembled, and the envy-or disgust-of
the male critters. Kirk is neither king
nor a duke, but drummer, and consid-
ers dressing and escapades with women
as legitimate adjuncts to his advertis-
ina department. as an actress does stolen
diamonds. He is expected some time to-

The next step will be the appointment of
peace commissioners. None but the
broadcast and tallest Americans should be
selected for this office. No friends of
Spain, no apologists for this country, no
self-seekers, no narrow minded pedants
with misconceptions of the meanings Of
our traditions, but ample, strong men
men with eyes clear to see into the future
Of the nations progress, and brave enough
to insist upon terms that will leave our
people unhampered in working out their
great destiny.-Chicago Journal.

a PROSPEROUS COMPANY.

The Provident Life Insurance Com
pany shows gains all round, and It's
prosperity was never greater IMAM
it is at the present time. The Com
pany wrote 1925, 572.00 of new business
last year in West Virginia alone, or z
larger amount than was written by
any other life insurance company DO
ing business in this State. The Com
pany has declared IA per cent. cash
dividend to the stockholders.
1t is needless to say that the Com
pany deserves all it's prosperity, sot it
is doing a great work. Its work is
almost entirely among the industrial
classes, who of all people need the
benefits of life insurance most. Many
hearts were gladdened and much s1f-
fering was alleviated by the llatribl-
ton Of $455 84,18, which the Company
has paid for claims in West Virginia
alone. The Provident is prompt and
liberal in paying claims, and that IS
the main reason why it is popular, as
evidenced by its rapid growth and un.-
form prosperity.

The Road Will Put on Extra Cars
Instead of Taking Them Off.
B. & o. Men Have the Measles.
General Railroad News and
Notes.

The past week or so there has been
rumor in circulation in this vicin-
ity that the Moundsville street car
line were going to take two of the
cars off and make the service only
hourly. Yesterday a Register reporter
Investigated the matter and found that
no such action was contemplated, and
on the contrary the road will put on
two extra cars in the near future and
make a fifteen minute service. To do
this five switches will be required and
the line will otherwise be repaired.
The road is certainly quite a paying
institution, considering the amount Of
capital invested and one can imagine
what the receipts are when the line
made $1,000 more in the month of
December than the same month one
year ago. The travel during the past
week has not been extra large, but
still the receipts are enough to more
than pay the expenses. In the spring
the road will have repairs made il
different ways and it may be that be-
tween the rails brick will be laid. The
new people at the head of the con-
Germ mean business, and every posi-
BILE thing will be done to benefit the
service, and patrons of the line will
be afforded the best of accOmmCda-
lions.
