MAYS VALUE

What is an ordinary man
worth? This depends upon the
Individual and circumstances.
To measure a mans value IN
dollars may seem an impossible
ity, but it is, after all, quite an
ordinary proceeding. In few
cases would it be at all practical
HE to accept the individuals
estimate of his own worth.
In many countries human life
is valued very low. Particular
ly is this true of semiAcivlllzed
countries. In these countries
life is more or less an existance
of idleness; the standard Of llv-
ing is low; there is moral decay;
in fact, a semli-barbarous people
possesses none Of the attributes
that give life a special, measure
able value, to the Individual or to
anv person interested in him.
In every country Bench and
Bar, publication devoted to af-
fairs OF the law, gives some IN
teresting information regarding
the value Of man. The figures
are obtained as the result OF
many cases for damages to the
Individual and the sums the
courts of the various states saw
fit to grant. In this manner es-
tiniates of the value of human
life have been made. It is in
teresting to note that boy OF
the laboring class at ten years OF
age is worth two thousand and
sixty-one dollars and forty-two
cents; at fifteen years Of age,
four thousand two hundred and
sixty-three dollars and forty-siX
cents; at twenty-five years of
age, five thousand four hundred
and eighty-eight dollars and
three cents, and from this time
on the decline in the value OF a
man is steady. According to
this legal decision scale man at
the age of seventy is worth only
seventeen dollars and thirteen
cents.
Taking the same practical
methods of computation and on
an average of the decisions ex-
amined it has been ascertained
that one eye is worth five thous-
and dollars; one leg, fifteen
thousand dollars; two legs,
twenty-five thousand dollars;
one arm, ten thousand dollars;
one hand, six thousand dollars;
one finger, one thousand five
hundred dollars; permanent dis
ability, twenty-five thousand
dollars.
In every case the figures re-
present not the estimate of the
individual on the value of his
own life, for in most cases he
would either value his anatomy
too highly or not at all, but
rather on his value to others.
If the labor of a man was the
only dependence of a helpless
family it is plain that his life is
worth much to the family. A
mans social value IS so insignifi-
cant that an estimate has never
been made. 1t is clearly to be
seen that a mans value to him
self is of little consequence. If
he is worth something to others
he may fatter himself that he has
value. A mans value to him
self being Of 50 little moment
during life how unimportant is
his value TO himself and others
after he is dead!

Clever Editor Devises Plan Which IA
Now Used by Hundreds Of
Phone Companies.

Several years ago an editor in
a small Illinois town conceived the
notion of strengthening his sub
scription list, and, incidentally,
making a little money on the side,
by running out farmers telephone
lines into the surrounding terri
tory, relates Success. Anywhere
from Is to 80 telephones were put
on one line. The farmers paid one
dollar a month for the service, and
in addition to having the free use
of the line for telephoning among
themselves, and to the merchants
of the town, they had even great
er boon. The editor, as an induce
ment to subscribers, inaugurated
a "daily telephone news service"
Every night, when he received the
latest Chicago newspapers, he
cut out lhe principal headlines,
summarized the headings into
news items, and at certain hour,
in response to a given signal, all
the farmers on his lines picked up
thei; receivers and the editor read
to them the full news of the day.
In this way families living 20 miles
from the nearest railroad or tele-
graph station had the news of the
world as quickly as dweIlers in
the great cities. The idea spread,
until now hundreds Of country tel
ephone companies are giving their
farmer subscribers daily news
service.

Almost the entire whaling neet
from San Francisco is pinched in

ward Of Point BARROW, says a
writer in the San Francisco
Chronicle. Word came early in
December in 4 telegram from
/ Unalaska, sent by the captain OF
| one Of the steamers which had es-
capped the ice-pack and were home
ward bound.
A number of these vessels were
bound out. Some have been away
from port for two seasons, and
must be nearly out of provisions,
but others sailing from San Fran
cisco last spring, provisioned for
two years, will be able to supply
what these lack. In addition to
this, there is a government sta.
tion at Point Barrow, where a
warehouse is kept well supplied
with provisions for the whalers,
so that the crews are in little dan
ger Of suffering from hunger.

row, eh?" said Capt. Williams,
who chased the bowhead in those
waters 40 years ago. They are
all right; they can either make the
station at Point Barrow or &c
to Herschel island, where some Of
them may be now. They will lie
up in shallow water, with a faith
ON or two under their keels, where
the ice will be comparatively thin,
only FIVE or six feet thick. They
will bank up the snow all about
their vessels as high as the decks.
each whaler carries enough
lumber to roof in the deck, and
there will be their workshop and
playhouse, and they will be warm
and snug. They can cut holes in
the ice and catch all the fish they
want. The mountains along thai
northern stretch are filed with
caribou, and they can have all the
hunting they desire. Each
whaler that goes up there takes
dogs and sleds.
"When they make big killing
the whalers blast out a cellar II
or 15 feet deep, and put their carl
bou, ducks and other game in cold
storage, and when the cook wants
meat he goes down cellar with
crowbar and prizes off enough for
the mess.
every whaler carries a good Ii
brary, and 400 healthy men will
find some way to amuse them
selves with good hunting, sled
ding and tools to make almost
everything"
1t will be next August at least
before the imprisoned vessels can
move from their icy prisons.

But with bear. marten and fisher Il is
