Are the EraternaIs dulLtxa

Here is a new wrinkle in insurance affairs. A correspondent of the New York Times has heard that after every fall election agents Of some of the fra ternaI and assessment companies go around and give to each legislator, free of charge, a policy of insurance on his If. The supposed object is to pro- mote the razs1ge of desirable laws, CT to prevent the passage of uudesira- b e oles, so that the companies may te free to pursue the even tenor of their way" If this is true, it is no wonder that some of the fraternals have gone under and that others are '1aisiag their rates. There is little or no margin in the business. Its sta bility depends upon prompt payment of assessments by a sufficient number of members to meet the death losses
 The system cannot stand even a mod crate giving away of policies, and it is difficult to believe that any such system prevails, especially among the worthy and reputable fraternal societies. But if anybody has definite allegations to mske he can probably get the ear of the Armstrong committee.

Break Bad Habits Now.

Not one of the least evils of bad habits is their i'll effect upon health. Cigars may not hurt one man; they may be poison to another. One may be able to smoke cigarettes and get considerable enjoyment out of them in moderation; another may find them the ver.e5t poison. Liquor is a dan gerous pIayfeTow and causes the run of many. hut thousands take a little w,ne 'fo- the s;omacl's sake" and live to a hale old age, and prosper. The indiv.dval should study himself and know whether any habit is harmful. If it is smoking, gamLH0g, wine-stoD them! Stop i1startly! Don't prom ise to do it "bofore long"

Scientific Bookkeeping.

To the simple citizen who has not been initiated into the mysteries of high finance the amazing thing about the revelations made by the Arm
 strong committee in New York is the modern development in the art of bookke eping In the old days one was taught to believe that a set of books were kept for the purpose of provid- ing a readable record of the progress and profits of a business. This view, apparently is all wrong. Books, it seems. are kept for the purpose of clouding transactions and cOnceaIing profits and losses, and of preventing a disclosure of what the money of a corporation is being used for. This would be bad enough in a private bus mess. but when it is the regular GUS
 tom of a concern that holds a fiduciary r-latiol to its patrons the outsider wonders what the persons responsible for such a condition of affairs can have to say in justification of their conduct. There seems to be little diff
 ference ia this regard among all the New York life insurance companies that have so far come within the com mittee's investigation. Money has tesn loaned and borrowed without any adequate record of the transactions, and for no reason that the records dis close. Secret accounts have been kept, secret operations have been carried on, secret profits have been made, and the

1.-The Average Han. |"

The New York Commercial in a col umn which it calls Points to Subor- d-nates' designed to teach the young the way up the rungs of the ladder of success selects the following from the Rambler:
 The Average Man is not an admFa- ble type. Not beautiful. but striking an impressive compromise between beautiful. but s,r.k;ng an unimpres- sfve compromise between beauty and ugliness; not intellectual, in spite of the spread of board schools; not lit erary. not musical. not artistic, not spiritual; instead, sordid, without ideals, and given to grossness, there is little il him that we sSould desire Tim.
 That makes it all the more remark able that Nature does not desire him- He has one faculty, one prerogative, one unanswerable revenge on all his de.ractors- persists. The beautiful come and disappear. and are remem- bared as heroines of Trojan wars or as incidents of old-time diplomacy; the intellectual strike spark from the ninty heart Of the world and pass; the literary write works which follow them, sooner or later. into oblivion; the musician thrums melodies which have their day and cease to be; the spiritual see visions and dream dreams. and straightway become as one O. them. There is no apostolic succession for any of them. They go, and their Prerogative goes with them But your Average Man does not go. GeniUs is a phenomenon; the Average Man is a law. He has seen Shake spearzs and Gcethes and Napoleons rnd Wagners rise and fall, and he goes on calmly. knowing that it is he and not they, who are the race. De- srise him. kick him as you will, the last word is with him. He is Natures favorite; like true mother, sEe loves her dull bcy best. says the St James Gazette.
 The Average Man is. as a rule, quite unconscious of his great destiny. It has probably never occurred to him things seldom do occur to the Average Man-that he is the type. the race, the force which makes the world go round. The other people may talk about it. going round, but he does the pushing. h fac. he a'ole exists il sufficient quantities 10 accomplish that porten- tous feat. The Superior People do wonders in their way but they have no stayiag power. Their vitality ex- hausts itself in a generation or two. So with the Inferior People. whom it is a common m stake t0 confuse with the Average Man-as if Average were anything but a safe via media. Nature wal ks in the middle of the road, and only she knows what pe-ils bsset the ditches on either side.
 When enc speaks of the Average Man, one means the average of his time; and he along with the gift of D rsistence, is not denied the faculty of progress. The difference is that, ac- cordiag to Natures rulc, humanity must march with an even front; there must be no stra ggiers, either before or teh'nd. We are not such raw re- cruits as we once were; we are learn ing the value of discipline, and per haps some day we shall be able to. go through oar maneIvers creditably.
