Soliciting Friends.

Most men have more or less dis
like for personal solicitation. They
seem to have the impression that
in urging IA friend or acquaintance
to insure in the company they rep
resent they are asking IA personal
favor, and to be placed in this at
titude is not agreeable to their feel
ing of Independence. Perhaps the
feeling is net an unnatural one and
it explains to a large extent why
some men can more successfully Sc
cure results for friend than for
idea of being under obligations to
some one else and we are accord
ingly reluctant to put ourselves in
what others might fancy debtors
position.
What we ought to feel in matters
of this kind is that we are comforting
rather than receiving a favor. 1t
is not necessary that one should
make prolonged or formal appeal.
Much may be done incidentally
aud casually a. one goes about in
his daily rounds and in a way that
would not provoke needless argu-
ment or opposition. Here little
and there little" is a good motto
for the man VIII" is writing insur-
ance. One oi the most successful
men we ever knew was II man who
did all of his work after business
hours.
One more suggestion. One will
be surprised To find how many men
are not merely approachable, but
are really desirous of insurance.
They do not care to take the initia-
tive themselves, but they are glad
to have some one else do So, and
one viii find them ready to meet
him more than half way. The past
ten or fifteen years have worked
wonders in the way of insurance.
AS consequences most men no
longer need to he convinced of its
desirability; they are convinced al
ready. All they need is to have an
earnest and cordial invitation and
the work is half accomplished

What ~ The Present DutyY
denleanor

Brother Workmen, do you re-
member that at the time you were
received as member oi our great
fraternity that you obligated your
self in the, same manner that all the
brothers with whom you were then
associated had been to do all in
your power to promote the welfare
of the Order. You We're urged to
become IA member so as to secure
protection for your dependent
family. Did you not have the
moral certainty that from the first
moment of your initiation your
family was protected, even though
your life should pass from you be-
fore morning? Can you imagine
for one moment that the small SUM
you had paid for initiation was any
compensation for the protection you
had received? 1t was no selfish in
terest on the part of the Brother
who urged you to become a MEM
her; he was remembering his obli-
CATION, and practicing the fraternity
for which the Order stands. This
is continuous obligation, aud as
you have been brought within the
folds Of our great fraternity by the
unseltish influence of a Brother will
you not likewise urge your friend
and neighbor to come into the lodge,
not for any selfish interest on your
part, but for. the protection of the
family of your friend?-Minnesota

Society emblems, although gen.
orally used as embellishments, have
their secret meaning. Brothers
quickly detect one another, the mys-
tic sign is given and friendship at
once springs forth and bridges over
the chasm of introduction The
signs are generally the indication
that man is true man, law
promoter and factor in all that is
upright, true and noble. That the
breast behind that shield upholds
the law, society, tenets and belief of
that Order, that he is one that can
be trusted in an emergency and to
whom an appeal can be made
knowing that deaf ear will not be
turned to the distressed.

1t is often asserted by paid agents
in the interest of corporations, that
it is better and safer to go into an
old line insurance policy, even if it
does cost little more, than to Join
the A. O. U. W., aud the argu-
ment is frequently made ''then you
do not have to bother about attend
ing Lodge, or paying Lodge dues, I"
etc. But these agents omit to say
that neither do the companies
"bother about their policy-holders,
or have the slightest interest in

or Interest TO Lodge Officers.

A decision has been rendered by
the Internal Revenue Department
which is of considerable Importance
to Fraternal Societies. The ques
ton was raised as to whether war
rant by Lodge upon its own
treasury was answerable to the war
laws and should have a revenue
stamp upon it or not. Now II de-
cisioD has been given which says
that warrant drawn in such
societies upon the treasury i'll favor
of one of its offices does not have To
bear "a revenue stamp, but If the
warrant be drawn in favor of a
third party, whether member OF
the Lodge or an outsider, 1T must
bear two cent revenue stamp. The
decision also announces that all
bonds OF Lodge officials made to
their order since July /, 1898, must
bear upon their faces revenue
stamps of the value of 80 cents, A
violation of these rules is in oppo
sition to the internal revenue laws
of the United States, and is mis-
demeanor.

Biliousness, dyspepsia, loss of appetite,
disturbed sleep, nervousness, headache,
giddiness and droWSiness, wind and pain
or fullness of tie stomach after meals, cold
chills and flushings of heat, shortness of
breath-these are the blank cheques of
physical bankruptcy. Take them to a
physician and he will fill them up with the
name of some more or less serious disease.
Every time that you carry one of them to
him you draw out some of your funds in
the Bank of Health. Keep il up, and there
will soon be no funds in the treasury.
The man who suffers from these dis
orders and neglects them will soon be in
the relentless grasp of some fatal disease.
If he is naturally narrow chested and shall
low lunged it will probably be consump
ton; if his father or mother died of par
alysis or some nervous trouble, it will
probably be nervous exhaustion or prostra-
ton, or even insanity if there is a taint in
the family blood, it will be blood or skin
disease; if he lives i'll new or low,
swampy country, it will be malaria; Z he
lives life of exposure, it may be rheu-
matism. There is just one safe course for
a man to follow who finds himself out of
