yond control, there is no telling what
the loss might be-"
J. P. Hubble, manager Of the Green
wich Insurance company, of New York,
said that there need be no unneees-
sary alarm over the condition of in
Surance affairs.
There is less risk in the fire insur-
ance business than in any other bust
ness I know Of" he said. Statistics
will bear me out in this. From 1860 to
the present date the average dividend
paid upon capital invested in the in
surance business amounted to lila per
cent. Not one company which has OBJ
served due precautions has been closed
out of business within the last twenty
five years. The calamity howl that
arose about year ago had no founda-
ton whatever.
1--WE have one element in our favor
at present, and that is the elasticity
of schedules. They are not as IRON
bound as in former years, which is
considerably in our favor
Cause of High Rates.
Preferred business is the cause Of
high rates. 1t is our business to keep
as near the fire line as possible. We
must also reduce the expense rate, and
the local agent is the man to do it."
G. c. Main, of Minneapolis, president

agent for the Philadelphia and North
American Underwriters association,
said
when I first entered the insurance
field 1 doubted the advisability of do

to doubt. Insurance requires high
appreciation of commercial integrity,
and every underwater should be ac-
quainted with this fact.

Our guide, a cool-headed fellow,
soon had the boat righted and with the
occupants clinging to it the craft was
slowly drawn to safety. Many of those
in the party were pulled out almost
exhausted. and in the case of one man
he was saved just as he had gone down
in the water for the second time.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful 1t Is In
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that charcoal
is the safest and most efficient disinfec-
tant and purifier in nature, but few real
lie Its value when taken into the human
system for the same cleansing purpose
Charcoal IS remedy that the more
you take Of 1t the better; it is not a drug
at all, but simply absorbs the gases and
impurities always present in the stom-
ach and intestines and carries them out
of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating onions
and other odorous vegetables
Charcoal effectually clears and improves
the complexion, it whitens the teeth and
further acts as a natural and eminentIy
safe cathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which col
lect in the stomach and bowels; it disin-
fects the mouth and throat from the poi-
son of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one form
or another, but probably the best charcoal
and the most for the money is in Stuart's
ABSORBENT Lozenges; they are composed
of the finest powdered Willow charcoal
and other harmless antiseptics in ia b1et
form or rather in the form of large, pleas
ant tasting lozenges. the charcoal being
mixed with honey.
The daily use of these lozenges will
soon tell in a much improved condition of
the general health, better complexion.
SWeeter breath and purer blood and the
beauty Of 1t is, that no possible harm
can result from their continued use but
on the contrary, great benefit
A Buffalo physician in speaking of the
benefits of charcoal, says: "I advise Stu
arts Absorbent Lozenges to all patients
suffering from gas in stomach and bow
els. and to clear the complexion and puri-
~ the breath, mouth and throat; 1 also
believe the liver is greatly benefited by
the daily use Of them; they cost but
twenty-five cents a box at drug stores,
and although in some sense a patent
preparation, yet 1 believe get more and
better charcoal In StuartTs Absorbent
1.ozenges than in any of the ordinary
charcoal tablets"

If the plans now being promulgated
by the ST. Paul branch of the National
Association Of Railway Postal Clerks
are carried out the form given above
will soon be seen on almost every letter
addressed to a st. Paul business firm.
The; postal clerks of st. Paul discuss
ed the matter at their regular meeting
held at the Windsor last night, and
the statement was made that the local
postoffice officials had heartily agreed
to cooperate with the clerks in their
efforts to have the business men Of the
city add the name of the station at
which they receive their mail and the
number of the carrier to their postal
address.
It was argued that such a plan
would greatly benefit the business
houses, since it would result in much
earlier deliveries of mail by doing away
with all of the sorting which now has
to be done at one station.
With each letter addressed to the
station from which 1t is eventually de-
livered, the railway postal clerks could
sort the mail into packages for the
various stations, and at the stations,
with the number of the carrier on each
letter it would be an easy matter to
prepare the mail for delivery.
BY this plan, the postal clerks de-
clare, business mail could, in many in
stances, be delivered from four to sew
en- hours earlier than it now IS 1t
would not only mean much for the
business houses, but would be a great
saving of labor for the carriers.
Postoffce Officials Favor 1t.
A committee named at previous
meeting of the postal clerks to confer
with the postal officials regarding the
advisability of the plan reported last
night that the local postoffice officials
were favorable to the plan, and it is
announced that the business men will
soon be asked to assist the department
by having their correspondents use
the name of the station and the number
of the carrier in addressing letters.
Another matter which the postal
clerks are working for Is more help on
the trains. At the present time, they
say, there is not sufficient help to care
for the mail in a proper manner, and
on this account mail is often delayed.
This is especially true of paper mail
and other first class mail.
"Only day of two ago twelve sacks
Of paper mail, received at the st. Paul
postoffice three weeks ago, were sent
on west" said j. A. Rafferty,, secre-
tary of the Postal Clerks association.
"This mail came from the East and is
for distribution throughout the West
ern country, but on account of lack
of help it could not be handled, and
has been delayed for three weeks"
The clerks will join with other
branches of the national association in
asking congress to provide for more
help in handling mails on the trains.

New York. Jan. 80. 10


Pneumonia now kills annually more
New Workers of all ages than any
other disease.
1t has become a worse scourge than
consumption.
The revised figures of the Health
Department, just completed, show that
there were 9,691 deaths from pneu-
monia in New York city during the
year 1908.
Reckoning the mortality in pneu-
monia at Is per cent, under modern
methods of treatment, the total num-
ber of cases of pneumonia in the city
of New York would now annually ap-
proximate $4,000. One-half of these
cases occur in the four months-De-
cember, January, February and March.
so that the present monthly average of
cases is at least $4,000.
1000 Gases a Week.
In round figures, 1000 New Workers
go to bed with pneumonia every week,
between Thanksgiving day and Easter.
Every day sees on an average of $50
new cases of the dread disease.
These fierce ravageS of pneumonia
could be averted if every main and
woman kept in normal condition by
using Duffys Pure Malt Whiskey,
which tones up the system, stimulates
and enriches the blood and builds new

The insurance men of st. Paul who
are members of the St Paul Mime
sofa Fire Underwriters Inspection Bu-
reau and Association met at the Wind
sor last night and listened to a num-
Der of interesting talks on matters
pertaining to insurance.
1t was the fifth annual dinner of the
association. and fully 100 ST. Paul in
surance men were present and declared
it the most successful effort in the
history of the association. The mem
bers of the association and their guests
shortly before 9 o'clock, and at II
o'clock the speechmaking began.
The address of welcome was made
by E. E. Hughson. who has been pres
ident of the association eight years.
and he was followed by number of
other well known insurance men,
among them Elmer H. Dearth, state
insurance commissioner.
81 wish to heartily congratulate the
members of this association upon the
success which has come to it," said
Mr.. Hughson. During the first two
or three years that we We're organized
there were trials and tribula tions, but
this has all passed away, and the as
sociation is now doing much good for
its members.
Here in st. Paul we have been es-
pecially fortunate in the matter of
losses, which 1 attribute to the efficien-
cy of our fire department. The losses
in st. Paul have been kept at the min
imum. No city in the country of like
size has a fire department that will
| compare with that of the city of ST.
Paul, and nowhere in the world is there
an insurance patrol that is the equal
of ours.

nance. While the city has grown rap
