FIND PROFIT IN DISASTERS.
Insurance People Make Money from
the Woes Of Others.

A terrible shipping disaster, or fire
which involves great loss Of life, only
conjures up a picture OF horror to the
average person. and II is almost i'm.
possible to realize that anyone could
derive satisfaction from them Yet
such casualties are not unwecomed by
those who are interested In the insur.

and property "stifens. the market to
use a market report phase. Long i'm.

a big catastrophe will more often than
not bring about a revival In personal

Concerning Livery Rigs.

Why is it that you can always tell a
livery rig when you see it? Two wom-
en- were discussing this question recent
ly. "Well, in the first place." said one,
'it isn't as smart as the private rig.
If it has a coachman, he isn't dressed
in clean, new looking clothes. The
harness has no bright mountings, and,
as a rule, the horses look half tired out
If it is an open buggy or a two seated
rig, the people in it help to show that 1t
is rented. Their faces and actions always
indicate that they are buying pleasure.
People who own their own rigs ride in
them more as a matter of course. A
rented rig always has livery written
all over it to me-" Those are probably
the correct reasons" replied the other.
"But whether they are or not 1 know
1 can always tell livery rig when /
see it just as 1 can always spot a
bride and bridegroom when l see them
on the reet."-Kansas City Times.

Are You Nervousg

The man or woman suffering from
nervousness should seek the compan-
ionship of healthy persons free from
nervousness. The meals ought to be
eaten very slowly. All ordinary hy-
gienic rules are to be obeyed. VIII ex-
ercises are good. The nervous person
must, to use figure Of speech, spring
out Of the warm, nervous bed and
plunge into the cold bath of effort
The thing he breads doing is the very
one he should do. One excellent plan
for nervous men and women Is to at
tend good theater and watch the de-
meanor of some SELF possessed actor or
actress. Let them study that demeanor
and try to initiate it. 1t will be some
thing for them to do when attacked by
a nervous SPELL 1t will be found bet
ter than buttoning or unbuttoning
gloves or indulging in any other Of the
purposeless acts so common to the
nervous.

His Crutch Calls For n Seat.

Styler sprained his ankle few weeks
ago and had to walk with a crutch. He
came limping up the street toward his
home the other evening and laborious-
ly mounted the front steps. His wife
watched him. Once inside the house
Styler hung the crutch on the hall rack
and stepped briskly toward the dining
room.
'I'm sure l can't see why you still
carry that thing remarked Mrs. Sty-
Ter. at was all very well when your
ankle was bad. But it is as sound as
ever now. You don't look at all pretty
hobbling along on a crutch, assure
you"
Perhaps not" assented Styler, "but
I'm getting even with myself for years
of self sacrifice. You don't know what
strap hanging is. For years 1 have
given up my seat to women. Now the
moment poke my nose inside the door
of car they fall over one another in
offering their seats to me. The dear
girls can't help it. I'm going to hang
on to that cYutch. my love, until am

THE
new YORK WORLD
THRICE-A-WEEK EDITION.
THE
Read Wherever the English Language
il spoken.

The Thuce-a-Week World was brilliant
success i'll the beginning and has been
steadily growing ever since. Time is the
test of all things, and has set its seal of ap-
proval on the Thrice-a-Week World which
is widely circulated in every State and Ter
ritOry of the Union, and wherever there are
people who can read our mother tongue.
This paper for the year 1908, will make
its news service, if possible, more extern
sive than ever. All events of importance,
no matter where they happen, are reported
accurately and promptly.
The subscriber, for only one dollar year
gets three papers every week and more
news and general reading than most great
dailies can furnish at five or six times the
price.
The Thrice-a-Week World is absolutely
fair in its political news. Partisan bias is
never allowed to affect its news columns,
and Democrat and Republican alike can
obtain in its pages truthful accounts of all
the great political campaigns.
In addition to all the news, the Thrice-a-
Week World furnishes the best serial fiction,
elaborate market reports and other features
of interest.
The Thrice-a-Week Worlds regular sub
scription price is only $10O per year and
this pays for 1856 papers. We offer this un-
equaled newspaper and The SMYRNA TIMES
together one year for $1.75. The regular
subscription price of the two papers is $500
