HE HAD A BAD HABIT.
And IT Made Him a Poor Insurance
Risk In Kentucky.

And 1T Made Him a Poor Insurance
Risk In Kentucky.
The manager Of a life insurance COM
pany had the floor.
Life insurance companies, b" he was
saying, "are as particular about the
people they already have on their lists
as they are about getting them on in
the beginning. They are rich, of course,
but they are no more anxious to take
in a man who will die of disease within
the first year or two than they are to
take in a perfectly healthy man and
have him hazard his life by taking per-
sonal risks in dangerous pursuits or by
travel in unhealthy countries.
81 remember a funny instance that
occurred once while l was living in
New England. One of u $40, 900 men
had a way of calling a man a liar in the
most careless and indiscriminate man
ner and with only the merest or no
p~rovocation. One day he was in our
Office and casually mentioned the fact
that he was going to make a trip to
Kentucky.

alertly.

policy holder holly, when the manager
interrupted him.
Don't fly the track. my dear fell
low, he said gently. Its all right here
and the rate is satisfactory to us; but.
by Jove. we can't give you the same
rate and let you go to Kentucky and
call men liars like you do in this sec

"a Female stranger,

In st. Paul's churchyard, in Alex
andria, Va, is a marble tombstone
bearing this inscription:
To the memory of a female stranger:
How loved, how honored once avails thee not
To whom related or by whom begot;
A heap of dust alone remains of thee.
IT'S all thou art, and all the proud shall be.
This strange inscription raised much
conjecture. The facts, as nearly as
known, are that in May, 1915, a man
and a beautiful girl, accompanied by a
valet, arrived at Alexandria in an Eng
fish vessel. They Stunned every one.
Five months afterward the girl died.
The husband staid long enough to erect
a monument, left a sun Of money to
repair it and then sailed away and was
never heard of again. Several novels
have been founded upon this sad and
romantic incident.

Vitality of snniIr.

The snail is blessed with great powers
of vitality. A case is recorded of an
Egyptian desert snail which came to
life upon being immersed in warm wa
ter after having passed four years glued
to a card in the English museum. Some
species, in the collection of a certain
naturalist, revived after they had appa-
rently been dead for Is years; and
snails, having been frozen for weeks in
solid blocks of ice, have recovered upon
being thawed out. The eggs are as hard
to destroy as the snail itself. They seem
perfectly Indifferent to freezing and
have been known to prove productive
after having been shriveled up in an
ven to the semblance of grains of sand.

mot many people, says a coal miner
quoted by the Washington Star, ''are
probably aware that the coal mined in
the United States annually is worth
more than three times as much as the
gold mined here. The product of the

the output of the gold mines of this
country, Canada and Alaska, which
last year amounted to over $50, 900, 600.
