1t is queer custom that the English
have OF lnsuring the life of then
monarch. 1t is done merely out OF
selfish interests and not in loyalty to
the ruler. The death of monarch is
a great business calamity to thousands
of people in the British empire. 1t
means a complete disturbance of the
status quo. The empire goes into
mourning. All forms of diversion are
given up for period, entailing great
loss on tradesmen in certain lines,
actors, sportsmen and those interested
in all kinds of amusements. To
protect themselves, these people take
out policies on the monarch's life, so
that, in the event of death, they will
not lose. All the leading British
companies grant this kind of insurance.
And they do it, too, without having
secured any physical examination of
the monarch, which is of course
impossible. They simply place the
rate high and take their chances. For
many years the life of Queen Victoria
had thus been insured, the premium
rate during her last year being about
IL per cent. AT her death, several
million pounds was paid over to policy
holders. The life of King Edward is
now being insured at the rate of 8 1-2
per cent premium. The English are
famous as gamesters, but this gambling
on the life of the king by reputable
companies is a curious extreme.

1t is common to regard Italy and the
Italians as vindictive and bloodthirsty,
and yet capital punishment-the legal
taking of life-does not obtain there.
Even the assassin of King Humbert
did not pay the severe penalty that
would have been melted out to the
ordinary murderer in Vermont. Are

The receipts of the Montpelier liquor
agency were double those of the
municipal water system, which shows
what a strong taste those capital
fellows have acquired. Another
popularity is that while the water
system cleared over $4,000, the
agency turns over less than $50 to the
state treasury.

The worst feature about Mrs.
Nations saloon crusade is that il
accomplishes nothing in the way OF
temperance. Indeed, such exhibitions
strengthen, rather than weaken, the
saloon in the public mind. Over-zeal
in any cause produces a reaction.
