The inference is that she is not only able to take
care of herself but of Others only equal to the

insurance protection and the life companies are en-
ploying ladies of eloquence and energy as agents.

world. Her policies amount to more than a million
dollars Mrs Frank o. Lowden, of Chicago, carries
S2500O0 probably than any other woman in the
