Radical Increase In Weight Of Carload
Lots Made by Freight
Committee
By Associated PROM.


NEW YORK, Jan. 3.--The transoontts
mental freight committee yesterday an-
nounced a number of radical increases
in the minimum loading of cars from
Pacific coast points to the east. The
changes are as follows:
Old. New.
Dried fruit, pounds. 10000 50,o0y
MUS, POUNDS ...........s......z4VV 3V,VVU
Raisins, pounds 10000 $1,000
Beans, POUNDS .4U,OVD bU,OUD
Canned goods, pounds .......40000 $4,000
In ten years the dried fruit minimum
has been increased from $4,000 to $1,000
pounds, and the percentage of Increase
on other Pacific coast products has been
almost as great.
The circular of the transcontinentai
freight committee is more in the nature
of a recommendation than an order, but
there Is every probability, 1t is said. that
all the railroads will accept. The rail-
roads claim that in the past they have
been grossly imposed upon by combina-
tons of small jobbers and retailers, who
have taken advantage Of the low mimi
mum quantities required in order to Sc
cure carload rates. AS a consequence
thousands of cars have been hauled 5000
and more miles loaded to only q half
or three-uuarters of their capacity.

Take me Back TO Old Kentucky.

Take me back to old Kentucky.
Where the crystal waters CLINT
AS they glance along the borders
Through the fragrant beds of mint:
Where the lassies and the horses,
Are terms of grace and speed.
And the whiskey and the statesman
Both are noted for their bead.
Take me back to old Kentucky.
Where the water flows so free:
Where they cool off in the summer
Meath the spreading Julep tree,
Where the high ball and the low
ball"
Always hit the center square
And you're sure to have next mornin'
Rheumatism in your hair.
Take me back to old Kentucky.
Where the bluegrass decks the hills
Where they have no use for water,
Save for operating mills;
For they scorn it as a beverage
On the dark and bloody ground,
For they claim ere since the Deluge
That it tastes of sinners drowned.
Take me back to old Kentucky.
To the state where | was born:
Where the corn is full of kernals
And the Colonel's full of corn:
Where to dissapprove that beverage,
Is to TOY with sudden death
Where tn ~ have a bonded warehouse
Where they barrel up the breath.
Take me back to old Kentucky.
Let me hear the pistols pop,
See the pigs and politicians
With their snouts down in the slop.
Take me back to those blue mountains
Where they argue points with lead.
But you needn't rush the matter
Take me back when | am dead.

Don't Gross Your Knees.

A medical authority has recently ut
tered warning against the habit of
sitting with one knee crossed over
the other a pose whiea is nowadays
almost as common among women as
among men This apparently harm
less habit. it seems, is likely TO cause
sciatica. lameness. chronic numbness,
ascending paralysis. cramps, varicose
veins and other evils. The reason is
simple. The back of the knee it is
explained, as well as the front Of the
elbow and wrist, the groin and the
armpit. contains nerves and bloodyes-
sells which are less inadequately pro-
tected than in other parts of the
body. The space behind the knee
contains two large nerves, a large ar
terry and numerous veins and Emphatic
glands. 1t is the pressure on these
nerves and vessels which is apt to
give rise to various troubles.

On Fame 5 eternal camping ground
Their silent tents ave spread.
And Glory guards with solemn round.
The b.vouac OF the dead
No rumor Of the foes advance
Now swells upon the wind:
No troubled thought at midnight
haunts
OF loved ones left behind:
No vision of the morrow's strife
The warriors dream alarms,
No braying horn or screaming fife
At dawn shall call to arm.
their shivered swords are red with
rust,
Their piumed heads are bowed,
Their naughty banner trailed in dust.
Is now their martial shroud
And plenteOus funeral tears have
washed
The red stains from each brow:
And the proud forms by battle gashed
Are tree from anguish now.
The neighing troop. the flashing blade
The buge' S stirring blast.
The charge. the dreadful cannorade.
The din and shout. are past:
Nor wars wild note. nor glory S peal
Shall thrill with fierce delight
The breasts that never more may feel
The rapture of the fight

LEE INSURANCE.

Inc lOllOWlng Is IN the nature
of a life insurance primer, and
will be read with deep interest by
policy holders in view of the agi-
tation on this subject:
A level premium is a premium
which is the same at every pay
ment; that is which becomes no
greater as the policy holder
grows older.
The reserve is the excess
amount charged in the early
years of level premium policies
to offset the failure to increase
the premium during the latter
years. This reserve is invested
by the company, and the proceeds
from it make up the deficiencies
in the latter premium payments.
The annual surplus IS the eX-
cess amount paid in by policy
holders above the sum paid out
in death claims and in expenses
of management plus the interest
earned by the reserve above the
percentage of the requirement.
Dividends are the portion of
the surplus divided among the
policy holders.
Deferred dividends are divid-
ends that are not distributed
among the policy holders annual
". but are held by the company
and paid to III policy holders an
nually. but are held by the COM
pany and paid to the policy hold
er at longer periods, usually 20
years.
A surrender is the act of a pol
icy holder in giving up his policy
for a consideration from the
company.
The surrender value, or cash
surrender value, of a policy is
the amount the company agrees
to pay if the policy holder sulTen-
ders his policy. This is less than
the sum that he has paid in pre-
miums.
A participating policy is one
emitting the policy holder to
share in any dividends that the
company may pay.
A non-participating policy is
one that gives the holder no
right to dividends.
An annuity is money paid back
annually to a policy holder at
stated intervals after a certain
date, in consideration of the mo-
ney that he has paid into the
company,
