TWO GREAT INSURANCE cos.
Annual Cost of Management Less Than
22 Gents per $1,000 Insured. An
Example of Cooperation.

In these days of combines and trusts it
is gratifying to the people of Iowa to know
that there is at least one commodity upon
whichit would be impossible to form any
combine that would to any great extent
effect the people OF this state. We refer
to the matter of tornado insurance on any
class of property and fire insurance on
town and city dwelling property. We
have two of the largest and cooperative
insurance associations in the world right
hers in Iowa. The Iowa Mutual Tornado
Insurance association with S1o6. 600, 900
in risks and 80. 900 members and the Town
Mutual Dwelling House Insurance asso-
citation with $28, 900. 600 in risks and 27,-
900 members, both associations having
over 1900 members in Polk county where1
the home Offices are located. A Roee:
home Endorsement. Neither association
can be excelled for promp and satisfactory
payment of losses. The Tornado asso-
citation has paid since the organization
S436, 947.oo, and the Town Mutual DWELL
ing House Insurance association 500, 517,-
90 since organization. The Tornado As
ISOLATION has been IN operation twenty-one
years and has assessed lis members cnly,
SO. SO per 1000 in that time; or an average
OF less than fifty cents year per 81, 900.
The Town Mutual has operated thirteen
years and assessed So 90 per 81 600 insur-
ed, or an average of 80 cents year per
81. 900
For economical management these asso-
Citations defy the world for comparison.
The annual cost of management being
about the same in each association. or 2e
cents per $1,000 insured. Only one case
OF litigation for the two companies. none
for the Town Mutual and only one for
the Tornado company and in that case the
jury awarded the claimant less than was
offered by the association.
The great success and prosperity ofthese
two associations has caused material re-
ouction in the cost of insurance in these )
classes and every one having property to
insure is receiving benefits IN the way of
lower rates. So long as the people stand
by these associations they need not fear
any material raise in rates or combine
for that purpose. The two associations,
being purely cooperative, furnish insur-
ance at the least possible cost and we'll de-
serve the patronage and support they are.
receiving. While they are separate and
distinct associations they have about the
same agency force and cooperate toeeth.

The Paris Alibi ONCE.

In Paris there is an institution which
calls itself an "alibi Office" 1t under
takes to prove that when one is really
hiding in Paris he is at Biarritz or some
place equally remote. The patron of
the "alibi Office" writes letters osten-
sibly from any address and the "alibi
Office" has them actually posted there,
% that when they arrive In Paris they
bear the right postmarks. This agency,
moreover, offers its subscribers the ad-
vantage of an address in "the most
aristocratic quarter Of Paris to which
their correspondence can be sent, which
will be opened by the management
when the subscription is not forthcom-
lne.

Durnin~ of the vanities.

Savanarolo once marked his strong
condemnation of luxury by collecting
large number of articles which he re-
garded as vanities during the carnival
to be burnt in the Piazza della Signoria,
Florence, on Shrove Tuesday, 1897. In
this burning Of the vanities' were in
cluded fancy costumes, carnival masks,
false hair and rouge pots, cards and
dice boxes, books and pictures, to-
gether with casts and valuable sculp-
lures of questionable character. Built
up into pyramid Of seven stages
signifying the seven deadly sins-the
pile was burnt by lighting fagots
placed in the center, while children
standing round sang hymns before the
assembled crowds.

Order IL Power.

What comfort, what strength, what
economy, there is in order-material or
der. intellectual order, moral order. To
know where one is going and what one
wishes-this is order: To keep ones
word and ones engagements. Again
order: To have everything ready under
ones hands, to be able to dispose of all
ones forces and to have all ones
means of whatever kind under COM
mand. Still order: To discipline ones
habits, ones efforts, ones wishes, to
organize ones life, to distribute ones
time, to take the measure Of ones du-
ties and make ones rights respected, to
employ ones capital and resources,
ones talent and ones chances profita-
bly,. Order is power.-Amiels Journal

The Original Lovers, lean.

Sappho's Leap was the name given
to white cliff or promontory ancient
ly called Leucadia, now Cape Ducato.
at the southern extremity Of Santa
Maura, one Of the Ionian islands. 1t
was so called because Sappho, the
poetess, is reported to have thrown
herself from this height into the sea.
A criminal, with birds attached to him
to break his fall, was thrown from the
cliff at the annual festival Of Apollo
and if he reached the water unhuFt- he
was picked up by boats placed there
for that purpose. This is the rock from
which, according to the. story, hvers
throw themselves in order 20 be free
from the pangs Of love.

A Bran Pie.

Alfonso, king Of Aragon, attended
by several of his conrhers, called on q
jeweler to inspect some of his wares.
No sooner had be left the shop than
the proprietor came running after him
and complained that he had been rob-
bed Of diamond Of great value. The
king returned to the shop and ordered
large vessel filled with bran to be
brought and placed on the counter.
He then commanded each of his court
iers to insert his hand closed and then
withdraw it open. He was the first to
begin, and after all had had their turn
he asked the jeweler to empty the YES.

The Pyemy Hippopot.mu..

One Of the animals least known to

potamus Of west Africa. 1t is Just
what its name implies, a pygmy hippo
potamus. 1t is much smaller than the
common hippopotamus, being no larger
than an ordinary or fair sized hog. 1t
differs somewhat from the common
hippo in the character Of its teeth, and
instead of spending its time in the riv-
ers and lakes in large herds it wanders
about through the jungles singly or in
pairs, much after the manner of swine

see the good in another much more
quickly than the evil, but narrow, be-
lifting mind has an eye only for faults,
for the unlovely and the crooked. The
