A writer in the Manufacturers Rec
ord contributes some very valuable
and interesting information on the
subject of fire insurance premiums
paid by the south. The magnitude OF
the fire insurance business as finan-
cial enterprise is placed next to lite
insurance, which is not dwelt upon at
all in the article. A table is exhibited

ed for the year 1904 as set forth in the

Southern people are generally COM
ing to reflect seriously on these
things. but they are slow to act.
Year after year we are paying out
millions OF dollars in life insurance
premiums, both fire and life, and near
ly all of it goes north. 1t would be
we'll enough if the south lacked the
brains and the energy and the oppor-
tunity to carry on business in in
surance, but that is not the case. We
have in the south god life insurance
companies and good fire insurance
, companies, worthy of every conf
dence, and yet the people Of the south
prefer to bestow their patronage on
| northern concerns. The time is no
more when it is necessary for the
south to run to the north for every
thing she needs. 1t was not long ago
when the south sent north for al
manufactured products. But that
condition has changed and we now
have factories of all kinds, and in
stead OF buying everything from the
north, as we once did, we are now
selling the north, east and west man
ufactu1ed goods. And the tendency
to develop along those lines is grow
ing very fast.
! It will not be long before the peo-
pie of this section learn that the fire
and life insurance companies OF this
section of the south are worthy o.
their patronage. The money that /:
kept in the south helps TO enrich the
the south, and the money that is sen
away is taking that much away from
the progress of the south. We have
nothing to say against the insurance
companies OF the north that are doing
business in the south. The majority
of them are all right and worthy O
confidence and we do not blame then
in the least for seeking business wher
ever they can get it. But we are il

selves in many ways.

Truth from Doctors.


 The suicide of a man in the prime ef life, shortly after being informed by physician that he would soon be- come permanently blind. raises a ques- ton of considerable ethical interest, namely, whether it Is right for a doc tor 10 blurt out such terrible truths to his patients. even in answer 10 their repeated and insIsient questions. To not few imaginative persons sudden and complete loss Of sight. after It's full possession and enjoyment. IS worse than actual death itself. so that the latter becomes a ready means oi escape. Absolutely hopeless and pain full diseases belong in fhe same cate gory. The propriety Of telling the patient that he is certainly doomed to die in a few weeks. or months or years, has been much discussed by the medical profession. but there seems 10 be no uniform practice or code for dealing with such pitiful cases. k.

There are people upon whom the fear. or even the prospect, of death ex- erts distinctly paralyzing influence, Of such nature and extent that the doctor. if aware Of the personal equa- tion involved, would hardly be justified in any circumstances in allowing such prospect to be presented to the suf- ferer"

GOOD CHARLOTTE RUSSE.
Variety Of Ways of Making and serv- ing This Delicate Dish and
 Simplest Favored One.

When perfectly made. there is noth- a charlotte r1Isse. There are now all manners of ways of favoring and serv- ing caarlottes, and one can have them in any variety of color. according to the flavor. But the simplest (and many epicures would consider it the most idealD charlotte russe Is merely circle or cupful of sponge cake filled with sweetened whipped cream, very deli caiely favored with vanilla. IL does not contain stiffening matter of any kind. Occasionally, when cream will not beat up firmly, gelatine (only trifel may be used. but if the cream is of the right sort. this will not be Deces- sary, and the filling is much better without it. Lady fingers are generally used by the French for the border, in- stead of plain sponge cake. For indi- vidual molds. split the lady fingers and cut them in half Secure six small ehai- lotte Tusse molds about twoand a half inches high and two inches across the bottom. Line the molds with the lady fingers. placing the outside of the little cakes against the mold If plain sponge cake is to be made, he follow ing receipt will prove very satisfactory:
 Whip two whole fresh eggs with an egg whip. adding gradually a eupful of sifted powdered sugar and a cup full of pastry four. sifted several times with a teaspoonful of baking powder Moisten the batter with about a sixth of a eupful of boiling water. Bake in oblong layers in moderate oven. and when the cake is cool. split each layer through once. If the regular charlotte russo paper cases are not con- venient. the two ends of each strip may be bound together by wrapping a thin piece of cotton or linen around them and pinning or tying the ends A sugar sirup that has boiled until it threads decidedly. but has not hardened may then be spread lightly between the edges of the cake. and the edges of the way. if desired.
 Place round piece of cake in the bottom of the cup. and then fill with sweetened whipped cream Let the charlottes stand a few minutes. or until firm enough to stand alone. and then unpin the wrappings or take from the molds just before serving.
 The cream can be favored with choco- late. coffee. strawberries or pistachio. If larger eharlottes are being prepared. prunes. apricots or pineapples can be combined with the cream. For a coffee charlotte russo fold in a tablespoonful of coffee essence with every eupful of whipped cream The essence can be made by boiling a heaping tablespoon ful of strong Mocha coffee with a eupful of water until il is reduced to about two tablespoonfuls. For a chocolate charlotte russe, melt a tablespoonful of chocolate and gradually mix with It little of the cream. When smooth, fold into the mixture. There should be enough chocolate to give full half tea spoonful to every individual charlotte russe
 Strawberry eharlottes may be made with few crushed strawberries and their juice. well sweetened and beaten 1 through the cream. little gelatine
 may be needed when putting in these | fiavors. as the extra liquid thins the ! cream.-N. '. Tribune
