What About Other Companies2

What about the other big in
surance companies? Is the Equi-
table the only one that has sinned
1t is highly improbable that the
Equitable was an exception. Why
don't the investigators investigate
all of the other big Life and Fire
insurance companies9 They have
all been paying big salaries and
they have wheels within wheels.
Those who administer trust
funds must do so wish clean hands.
1t will be a marvel if the directors
of other large insurance eompa-
mines have avoided the methods
which have brought odium on The
Equitable management.

Does This Fit You?

An exchange breaches the fol-
lowing little sermon which has
some exceedingly good points about
it: Some one has well said that
your home paper never loses inter.
est in you. This, possibly, you
never gave passing thought. No
matter whether you like the news
paper man or not. he allows no
personal matter or petty saites to
lnterfer with his work of news
gathering. He may meet you as a
stranger; yet along with his best
and dearest friends chronicles
wherever you may be. Others de
ceiye and defraud you, even
though you do not observe it.
Should 1T at any time say things
that causes your fur to turn the
wrong way, study a moment and
see if it has not at various times
said nice things for which you
failed to give 1t credit"

MR.. BRYAN OPPOSES.

In 1895 Mr.. w. j. Bryan deliver
ed an address on Labor day in the
city of Chicago. In the course of
that address he said:
"The ballot is the weapon by
which the people OF this country
must right a legislative wrong.
Whenever they lack intelligence
and patriotism to right their
wrongs at the ballot box they will
be unable to right them il any other
way.
"The ballot, to be effective, must
be used. and conditions arose 10
this country which made it impss-
slble for all the people to use the
ballot which they had. Because Of
the circumstances which surround
ed them, many men were afraid to
exercise freely and according to
conscience the political rights given
to them under our institutions.
"What did they do? They de-
manded reform in the ballot laws.
/ honor the lsboring men of this
country and the labor organiza-
tions which stand at the head of the
wage-earning classes, because they
secured the Australian ballot for
themselves and for the people at
large.
"The ballot law did not come to
the laboring men from the capital
istic classes. 1t came as result
of their own demands. The labor
ing men today enjoy the advant-
ages of the Australian ballot be-
cause they compelled its adoption"

Some Curios and Oddities.

Few men could tell il they were
asked how many feet per secont
they walk. A press photogrs pher
whose work required him To know
all manner of speeds, said yester'
day:
"The average man wake -four
feet second. A dog on its ordi'
nary jog goes eight ieet a second
A horse trots twelve feet second
A reindeer ,over the ice makes
twenty six feet. A race horse
makes forty-three feet. A sailing
ship makes fourteen ieet.'
"The suns heat?" said the
astronomer. well, let US say
that the value of the SUMS heat is
$25, 100000. Now what proper
tion of all that value warns the
earth? Oaly 2 cents worth.
"All the rest of the suns heat
is wasted in space. OF the $25. 000-
900 the earth only gets two cents"
"With coal can give you another
idea of the suns heat. Suppose
that the earth were to contract to
heat the sun. Do YOU know what
the result would be? All the coal
upon the earth would suffice to
the solar heat for just
one-tenth OF second"
1t is difficult to get access to the
governments historical documents
and papers in Washington, and
they who do get access to them are
always accompanied, as they make
their consultations, by guide.

The Lead Pencil.

The number OF pencils used in
the United States annually, il di,
vided evenly, would leave only
Two for each one of its population.
A pair of pencils year would be
a small allowance for those re-
curing them every day. Yet at
TINS rate, when the total of about
one hundred and sixty million for
the whole country is calculated.
one cannot help wondering how it
is possible to consume such a vast
number of pencils. Some of the
pencils we buy are "made in Ger
many" but of the entire mum ber
that Americans use nine-tenths are
of home manufacture. A consider
able quantity of this article is also
exported as well as imported. The

States employ upward to two
thousand people, paying them
about 100000 in wages every
year. Americans annual OUTPUT

ested. Fine writings and doings are
all very well in way, but most peo-

charity and kindness that count. The
hale. hearty, good mornings, and the
tender good nights. the smile. the
warm handshake. the ''old fellow. I'll
stick by you" and the slap on the
back These be the things we live
and die by. Little of the tragic or
melodramatic enters into the lives OF
most of us, but we all have our moiety
of daily Joys and Borrowings. our
secret warnings, hallowed hopes, and
these are the things that make our
world go round.
