Loss Fully Covered

We are getting q little tired of
this life insurance business.
When u man dies nowadays the
first question they ask is, "Was
he insured, and for how much?"
The papers also generally wind
up the obituary notice with the
amount of the insurance. Soon
the obituary notices will read
something like this. "Peter
Jones has died and left a wife
and two Children. Loss fully
covered by insurance. Or if
the deceased is not insured, it
will read about as follows: stJohn
Smith is dead. He leaves a wife.
Total loss; no insurance.

WEEKLY TRADE REPORT.
The Current of Business Running Full the
Country Over--Increased Strength In
Corn, Oats and Dairy Products.

New York, Nov. 16.--Bradstrect's
commercial report says: Favorable
features are still largely in the as
cendant and the current of businesu
is running full the country over. In
some directions, indeed, notably in
the matter of forwarding Of general
merchandise, grain, ore, coal, iron
and lumber, complaints of INSULT
cient transportation facilities have
become more marked. An unfavor-
able feature noted at the west Is the
continuance of the drought in some
parts Of Kansas and Missouri, where
live stock Is being rushed to market
because Of insufficient water sup
plies.
Aside from the strength in raw
cotton, the features have been the
increased strength in such cereals as
corn and oats, due to the springing
up of a better demand, some slight
frmness in lard, reasonable advance
in butter and eggs and other dairy
products and the stimulation to
prices caused by close control Of spot
supplies. Wheat and also -four have
weakened, due mainly to realizing
upon the late advance, but renewed
speculative interest is evident on
every decline and, though prices are
slightly lower on the week, the tone
Of tho market is much better than
some weeks ago.
Failures in the United States for
the week aggregate 213, against 1871
last week, 2S7 in this week a year
ago, 100 in 1899 and 229 in 1898.

Mrs. Adlai Stevenson, honorary
president general Of the D. A. Rs, talk.
ed to the club women OF St. Paul re
Gently upon the subject Of "How Club
Life Becomes Benefit to American
Women. She laid stress upon the
statement that young women should
not be backward In taking up this
work, and said that two clubs were
not too many for woman to belong
to. Mrs. Stevenson pointed out that
woman's organized activity has been
especially notable in Chicago and
New York, and she expressed the
opinion that the women's clubs Of
those cities have been very influential
in purifying the political and moral
atmosphere, and in inspiring the
anti-vice crusades, as well as the
movements to beautiiy the cities.
In bringing her remarks to a close
Mrs. Stevenson said that there is no
longer any doubt Of woman's ability
to compete with man. but she added
chat the women must remember
"that club life is not all her life, and
that her kingdom is the home. where
she should continue to exercise her
greatest influence, ruling through
love as a wife and as a mother.
