Prize

The winner of a prize of a guinea
offered by the London academy to the
person who should select the three
most pregnant and ~felicitous sentences
from any authors. chose the following
three quotations. The first was from
Ruskin:
Fancy plays like a squirrel IL Its
circular prison and Is happy; but imag-
ination is u pilgrim on the earth-and
her home is in heaven" The second
sentence was taken from the works Of
Mazzini: "Discouragement is but dis
enchanted egofism." The third was
the following from Robert Louis Ste
venson: "The true wisdom is to be al
ways s~easonabie, and to change with
a good grace in changing circum-
stances. To love playthings well as 4
child. to lead an adventurous and hon
orable youth and to settle when the
time arrives into n green and smiling
age is to be a good artist in life and
deserve well of yourself and your
neighbor."

An important Decision

Kansas City, Nov. 3.-In a decision
In the United States District Court
here, Judge John F. Phillips has he'd
that insurance companies may enforce
the anti-suicide clause, which was
previously entered into by the insur-
ed.
The decision was in the case Of
John Whitfield, a well known news-
paper sporting editor who killed him
self.
Whitfield insured for $1,000, receiv-
ing a policy that contained a clause
specifying that only $500 sAould be
recovered in case OF suicide.
Although the statutes Of Missouri
declare that insurance companies
nay not make suicide a defense in
refusing 70 pay a policy, Judge Phil
fps held that As the pleading OF
the contract in question, voluntarily
entered into by the parties, goes mere
u TO the question of the amount Of
he recovery, and not to defeat a re
covery, my conclusion is That fhe
plaintiff is only entitled to recove
ne sum Of $500"

DR.. Andrew Wilson writes: IF We
assumed that flowers were merely
evolved to crafty human senses we
should be entertaining a woefully lin
tied view of nature. The botanist will
tell you that everything about a flower
Is meant to favor one end. That end
Is the production Of seeds and the prop
agation of the species. The colors Of
fowers-nay. even the little splashes Of
a hue or tint seen on a petal-are in
tended to attract insects that they may
carry off the fertilizing dust, or pollen.
to other flowers OF the same or near
species and thus insure a sturdier race
rs the result of cross fertilization. 1t
Is to this end also hat your flowers are
many of them sweet scented. The per
fume is another kind Of invitation TO
the insect world. The honey they Sc
crete forms a third attraction-the
most practical of all, perhaps. Then
the arrangement of the flowers on the
stalk, the times of opening and shut
ting Of the flowers and the position of
the stamens and pistils are all so many
features whereby nature is giving each
plant a help on the way"

One evening a few years ago the
