For tho first time IN the history OF life
Insurance in this state. Tho Equitable

citizens OF Rhode Island than did any
other company. Despite the agitation
over life Insurance matters this companys
pr,mium income in Rhode Island was
So. .S6s; $4,000 larger than ever before and
the largest OF any company In this state.
Under the present manager. j. u r..
Jones. the business has steadily grown
from 1880. when the total premiums col
lected Was $4,000 1850 less than the
largest collection OF any company. untl
in 1896 they were s52s. .s6s-the largeet pre-
MUM income in this state on ordinary
policies
In proportion 20 the population, Il Is
believed that there are more citizens I'm

or more through Mr.. Jones agency than
any agency Of any company IN the coun-
try. There are hve well known citizens
whose aggregate insurance IN the Rhode

IT was in the House Of Commons that
the debate on the address became interest
ing, when Joseph Chamberlain, in the alb
sence of former Premier Balfour, took the
place OF the leader OF the Opposition and
in brilliant speech attacked tho govern
ment on all points, and especially on It's
South African policy.
He threw down the gauntlet regarding
home rule for Ireland Regarding tariff
reform, Mr.. Chamberlain promised to give
the government several bad quarter hours.
UNIONISTS TOOK HEART.
Mr.. Chamberlain's speech undoubtedly
was the feature of the first day in the
House OF Commons. The small coterle OF
Unionists took heart under his spirited
leadership. and his brilliant thrusts and
sarcasm were greeted with the heartiest
cheers Even some OF Mr.. Chamberlain s
opponents could not refrain from accord
ing him the need of acclaim for his re-
markable attack.
Premier Campbell-Bannermans reply
was perfectly good-humored, the speaker
assuming that his position was one OF
such strength that he could afford to be
generous.

Before the General Assembly of the United
Free Church in Scotland, the Advisory Com
mittee reported that the principal work of the
Executive Commission charged with adjusting
the claims of the Free and United Free
Churches would soon be concluded The Free
Church has waived its right to call for allocu-
ton of any of the lands and buildings formerly
used by the Free Church in Foreign Mission
enterprises, and to the funds which have been
especially identified with these properties. The
Free Church has also consented that the funds
of the WOmen's Foreign Missionary Society
should continue to be held by that society in
connection with the United Free Church The
Commission has indicated its opinion that the
Normal Training College should be assigned
to the United Free Church. Other general
funds are under consideration for assignment
to one or the other of the contesting bodies 1t
it found that the United Free Church has lost
in membership during the past year in the
Highlands, where the Free Church has its
greatest strength and has made substantial
gains.

Dr. McLaren has way of giving one homey
little sayings that stick in the mind and often
become the source of great practical comfort
One of his remarks is, that ''Few of us extracts
the last drop of sweetness out of life" One
finds himself becoming ambitious to get that
last drop. The thought of it makes him eager
alert. His eyes are opened to many beauty in
the material world; his ears to the sweet song
Of the birds; or the wind in the trees, or the
ripping Of water. But better than these. in
the quest for the last drop, mind and heart
awake, people seem more eager and brighter
than before The mind gets unexpected refresh
ment; and everyone becomes interesting. 1t
gradually takes hold of one that everybodv's
life is worth living as well as ones own. that
God can make all things work together for good
to all who love him
Another of his favorite sayings is, "That
nothing either great or small but thinking
makes it So" 1t starts the mind to analvzing
what constitutes greatness or smallness WHY
the same thing seems so large one time and so
small another What is the standard of meas
uemene? Isn't it how the thing is viewed from
tbs standpoint of the natural man. and that of
the man whose life is hid with Christ in God?
The WORRIES the defeated ambitions, the Sights
OF self dwet upon, become great The mer-
ceS, blessings and gOOdnesses of the Lord, fail
ing to be dwelt upon, seem small Now it is in
The power of the will to choose what it will hold
as great-and what as small-and by steady,
persistent holding our thoughts true to our
cnolce, our great things will seem great, and
small things small.
1t takes a very systematic head to have a
place for everything, and eternal vigilance to
Keep everything in its place. Ideas are no
easier to keep in place than things and hearts
are as perverse as heads. SO we have to put.
much thought into our classification Of the
great and the small; the essential and the non
essential in life. In the column of things great
10 be dwelt upon until we know they are great,
I'' That it is impossible for God not to do His
OesJ for soul that trusts Him In the column
u, things small, all the cares griefs and per-
Peutles that would cloud this trust Nav the
"oy Spirit constantly strengthen our minds
ana hearts to see and hold fast the truths in
"eir relative magnitude and relations.

The address of Mr. Charles Francis Adams
at the Columbia Commencement has attracted
unusual attention. He deprecated the "elec-
tive system" as having been carried to a great
extreme in the universities and designated it
as an educational fad, and very mischievous
one, following the lines of least resistance"
1t was described as unscientific and crude. It
will be of interest to the greater number of col
leges in the South that this man of letters and
OF thought made a strong plea for the smaller
colleges as against universities, and even sug-
gested the division of universities into several
separate institutions. 1t is not to be oues-
toned that among the high thinkers and ripe
scholars of our time the smaller colleges NAV
claim, as their graduates, a liberal proportion
Ihe university must continue to hold its high
position in modern educational systems, but
the colleges are likewise Indispensable and their
ascending glory has not yet reached the zenith
Referring to the verdict in the Crapsey
heresy case which was rendered by court of the
Episcopal Church recently, Rev. DR.. Van Allen,
an Episcopal clergyman of Boston, speaks
out strongly. He says: "However sad it is to
see priest of God silenced for having broken his
VOWS, it is better so than that he SHOULD be
allowed to go denying the Christian faith while
speaking in the Church's name"
