Child fensions il, rranon.

At all times it has been an objecl
with French parents to teach child
to be provident and economical. A
child of three can become member
of the MutuaIite by giving only two
cents a week; one cent will entitle it
to getting ten cents day when it is
ill, and the other goes toward getting
a pension when it is at a certain age.
No one knows how long a child can
live, but what does the contribution
amount to? There is hardly a child
in the world who does not spend that
for candy. Now, boy at eighteen,
giving thirtyfour cents month to
the society, viii when he is sixty have
pension Of seyenty-two dollars

INVENTOR PLUNGEs TO DEATH.
Heartbroken at Loss, F. w. O'Connor
Jumps From a Window.

Heartbroken at Loss, F. w. O'Connor
Jumps From a Window.
Omaha, Neb.-In a fit of grief over
the loss OF a model which after years
of effort he had practically completed.
f. w. O'ConnOr, inventor of a sun
stencil, threw himself from the third
floor window of hotel ana was dashed
to death on the pavement beneath.
The invention was intended to do away
with the laying out Of a sign, the full
outline being cast upon d dead wall or
signboard by glass slides on the prin-
ciple Of stereopticon. Every detail
would be correctly portrayed, so that
painters could begin Immediately with
their brush work.
New slides were just received which
the inventor thought would make the
apparatus perfect, and he had sat up
expectantly through the night in order
to give the machine the final test as
soon as day dawned. The machine
stood on the window-sill, after he had
adjusted the new lenses, and in some
way 1t slipped and was smashed into
a thousand pieces. Heartbroken, he
threw himself after it.
