Are You Reas0nable2

Many people seem to act on impulse
or prejudice rather than principle or
judgement, but taking it for granted
that you are reasonable being your
serious attention is asked for considera-
ton of some of the reasons why YOU
should prefer The Fraternal Brother
hood to any similar organization.
First-lt is a comparatively new or
ganization and has avoided the mistakes
made by the crude attempts of former
years.
Second-It is not loaded down with
surplus of old members, the average
age being 3425 years.
Third AS result of the former facts
its death rate is remarkably low, being
less than per 900.
Fourth-It started right and does not
have to make extra assessments or read
just rates.
Fifth-It recognizes the rights of wo-
men to an equal share of its benefits
1t has no side degrees.
Sixth-In proportion to its size it is
growing faster than any fraternal society
in the west, having taken 1000 bene-
ticiarv members this year.
Seventh-It has healthy and rapidly
growing reserve fund safely invested,
guaranteeing the prompt payment of all
claims, and does not owe dollar.
Eighth-It pays benefits to members
while living if they are in need and does
not wait until they have no use for
money.
In fact it is the most practical of fra
ternal insurance orders, and all it asks
is unprejudiced investigation. Full de-
tails can be had on inquiry at HERALD
office.

Bread For the Poor.

Every night about o'clock a lively scene is enacted at Eighteenth street and Wabash avenue, when stale cakes and loaves of bread are sold at nomi- nal price, Children of all ages Jock to the place and wait patiently Tor the dole During the period of waiting the children engage in games and thor oughly enjoy the little meeting. At times, however, the scene is rough and tumble when belligerent boys begin strife for the best places in line and fist fights are indulged in, and many of the youngsters go home not only with baskets of cake, but blackened eyes and torn clothing. Sometimes uamps who have in some manner scraped up a few pennies find the locality and mingle with the children in an endeay- or to procure stale deiicacies. Many of the children are of the poorer class, and they carry market baskets which are filled with tempting though rather dry cakes, cookies and other articles of pastry. The usual price for bas- ketful is cents. During the daytime people with baskets call at all hours for stale bread, which Is doled oat at the same small price. After the bas- kets have been filled the children trudge homeward, usually munching on a piece of cake or ni5bling sparing- ly at q cooky or Chicago ~.---.-L

The CniRure.

The coiffure worn low down in the nape of the neck suits lots of women and is apt to inpart an air of simple lty and youth distinctly pleasing. But not a few of us vary the fashion of our hair with a reckless indifference to the fashion of OUT hats. and the result is an unsightiy gap in the back view, says the New York Mail and Express Even the most bewitching Parisian confection that ever crowned the head of pretty woman may prove unbecom- ing If donned with a careless disre- gard of the mode of coifure that its design demands.

The soft lawn ties are pretty when fresh, but they soon wrinkle on the neck and have absolutely no chic The easiest way out of it if one has a neck at all presentable is to cut the neck round or slightly square and fin ish it with band of trimming. lace or embroidery.

EASTER MONDAY.
A Parade by Firemen and Westminster
Band In the Afternoon.

The Westminster Far. Department, the
Juvenile Fremen, the Westminster Band
and Westminster Drum Corps will have a
parade on Monday afternoon, their first APP
pearance on parade for nearly year. Before
the parade there will be a test of the hose aud
water power at some point near the railroad,
about o'clock.
At night the Firemen will inaugurate an
oyster supper and festival to continue during
the week. The object of the festival is to
raise funds to liquidate the Indebtedness upon
the building, pay for uniforms and to keep
up the efficiency of the company.
The Fire Department is the most useful
organization in the city. The lodges who
take care of the sick and bury the dead and
do other good works are all useful, but the
Fire Department heads them all. They pro-
tect the well and the sick. 1t is an organi-
cation of experienced and fearless fire fighters
that the city should feel proud of, and the
citizens should manifest their appreciation by
literally patronizing their festival.
By reason of the competency of the Fire
Department and the plentiful supply of water
insurance rates here are not only lower than
in most towns and cities, but the security
against fire is a great satisfaction to all citi-
zens, property owners and tenants.
