A Tale with A Moral.

Here is an incident which shows
the uncertainty of life and the bene-
fits which comes from following
good advice: A brother Workman
had been a railroad brakeman for
about nineteen years and knew, as
well as any, how to avoid the dan
gers of his work. A few days be-
fore the accident occurred which
caused his death, his wife on whom,
like many another Workman's wife,
devolved the duty of keeping his
assessments paid up, said to a
neighbor woman: 81 don't see how
we can afford to pay these dues and
assessments any longer; believe
that Pll stop paying them; III let
'em go this month" But the neigh
Dor urged her not to stop, saying;
81 wouldn't stop if | were you; life
is uncertain and what would you
do, with those little tots to take
care of, if he should die?" The
wife replied: "Oh, Ben won't die;
he's healthy, and he's been brake
man so many years, and on this
road, too, that he can take care of
himself all right" "Well, my
dear" said the neighhor woman,
81 wouldn't take any such risk as
that. A few dollars a month amt
much; you'd spend it somehow,
and you'd better pay it where it
will come back to you if anything
should happen to your Ben. I'd
keep it up if | were you" And
she did. Her friend was a friend
indeed. The unexpected happened.
The Brother is dead, and but for
the timely words from a friend his
wife would have let him become
suspended few days before he died,
and she and the little ones would
have been left to the heartless strug-
gle for existence, with no money to
get start.-Er.

Fraternal progress keeps rolling
in and reminds one of the remark
made by a green Irishman who,
during his first day on man-of-
war, was ordered to pull in a very
long tow line which was trailing in
the water. After working some
time and the end was not appearing,
he turned to the officer and said
"Bad luck to me, sorr, if | don't
behave somebody's cut off the other
end of this line"

Pay your dues and assessments

Do you give your goat" enough

is exercise necessary for his good

| noticed in my last Worknean
something in regard to the post
mortem deduction" and will say
that in my judgment it would be
one of the wisest provisions ever
made in our beloved Order; and |
hope it will become law, as that
would put the Order on sound
basis beyond doubt. No one can
object to its fairness. Suppose the
insured has died in the first few
years, say nothing Of the first year,
he will have paid but small
amount into the Order, and surely
is not entitled to as much as the
member who has paid for many
years. Should the plan be adopted
it will create a reserve that will
make the Order better as it gets
older, and more able to meet the
risks it has undertaken. 1t guards
against poor risks, too, or makes a
provision so that the poor risks
which we get will pay something
for all time to come. Poor risks
will be worked on any Order. The
best they can do is to guard against
them. But if they must pay some,
thing anyway we will not lose so
much by them. There may be
some who will kick, but not those
that are good risks as a rule, aud
the plan is fair and equal to all
alike. 1t is a business proposition,
one that all Orders have to come t.
in order to stand. There are those
who will say as to the reserve, and
some one will get away with that.
| will say to those, please wait un-
til you can name one penny out of
the millions that have been entrust-
ed to our brothers that have ever
been misplaced before you cry dis
honesty.
Another thing | should like to
mention, and that is: | find those
who have attained the age of fifty
years, who think of dropping the
Workmen. 1t seems to me that IA
brother at that age ought to have Il
guardian appointed, or else he
wants something for nothing. We
have had the protection of these
years for less than cost, and now
we are called upon to pay no more
than cost at that age. Suppose
they should drop out, they are out
nothing up to that time, but
should they drop out at that age
their beneficiaries are out the
amount, counting the difference 1t
will cost until death from that age
and the two thousand dollars, which
will not be very large amount at
best; on the average it would not be
more than from one hundred and
fifty dollars to five hundred dollars.
Supposing we had twelve assess
ments per year, then it would take
almost thirteen years and would be
nearly fifteen hundred dollars
ahead at one assessment per month
"a big investment, ii we were as
sured that we should live to the age
of sixty-five years, then at that age
at the cost of carrying the risk is a
great deal less than it is worth, or
costs us to carry at forty-two dol
lars per year, in any other insur-
auce that is or can be devised, on
