Writers Home

in East Haverhill, Mass, has a
typical fireplace, used for cooking
and heating i'm the early part Of the
last century by both freemen and
slaves. In pioneer days none
could not purchase luXuries in the
way of heating or cooking appli-
ances such as you can get today.
Great stove supply houses such as
the Omaha Stove Repair Works,
1907 Douglas street, were then un-
known, and i'm fact the modern re-
pair house was almost unknown
until within the last two decades, a
place where millions of pounds Of
repairs are constantly on hand. The
mind can scarcely think of the
name of a stove, range or furnace
that they do not carry repairs for.

ON The GRIOIRON
The Great Game of Autumn is Here in
All Its Lustre and Brutality.
AND DEATH ARE DEFIED
Meantime the Country Looks On and
Wonders what would Happen II
the Army Were to Engage
In Foot Ball.

More men are injured playing foot ball
in a single season than were wounded in
the Spanish-American war. More Amer
lean men lost their lives as a result of this
great athletic sport in October and No
vember of last year than were killed by
the Fflipinos during the same period.
Nevertheless each year finds the foot ball
fever more intense and the college rivalry
more keen.
THE GAME is HERE TO STAY.
Those of us who regret it'll cruel brutality
and wish it might be refined are simply
wasting our regret and t~hanklessly look on
and worry. We may as well give in. The boys
are determined to play foot ball. They
know of no other form of athletic sport SO
fascinating. The best thing for us all is to
accept the situation and make the best of
it. Fortunately the life insurance com
panies do not include foot ball as a pro-
hibited game or occupation, and
THE BANKERS RESERVE LIFE
invites every first-class foot ball player in
the west to take out a policy of life insur-
ance. Although there is some risk in in
surfing these reckless athletes, they are
usually most excellent subjects for insur-
ance. Trained athletes, full of life and
''SOi' NhSI tAtItlSt anu training make
them especially healthful. For this reason
ID. II. robson, PRESIDENT
Bankers Reserve Life association, invites
every foot ball player in the land to COM
municate with him. Ask for premium
rates on our 2O-payment Gold Bond life
policy. 1t is just what a young man
needs. Now is the time to investigate. A
postal card will take the reader full in
formation. Address,
