Russian Savings Banks.

Russia has a post~otice savings bank
system and 1t is greatly appreciated by
the people. While it is of recent orr
gin the annual increase in the deposits
now averages about $46oo,ooo. Ac.
cording to Consul T. F. Heenaan OF
Odessa, the amount on deposit on
August I, 1903, was $5oI ,6oo,ooo,~ and
on the same date in 1907, it had reach
ed $686, 100000. AS there has not been
any real advance in the national pros
perity to explain such an increase in
the nations savings, Our authority
says the rush to the savings bank can
only be accounted for by the fact OF
the people not desiring to retain large
sums in their homes. There is a grow
ing belief in this country that the
government should establish a similar
system Of post-of1ce savings banks for
the accommodation of rural residents
who do not have the banking privi-
leges provided by the city banks

use the telephone is receiving by farm
ers' wives all over the country.
The farmer himself uses telephone
for business purposes almost entirely,
but his Industrious spouse combines
both business and pleaure. A tele-
phone brings the city or town to her
very door, yet she can enjoy all the
comforts Of farm life.
Besides ordering her groceries, tell
ing the meat man to stop, keeping
posted on the latest market price OF
eggs and butter, she makes friends
and neighbors with farmers wives
miles away. The telephone keeps her
from getting lonely when the family
are away, acts as a companion, ano
is an ever ready help in case of need.
The practical ways in which the farm
ers' wives use a telephone are number
less.
In speaking Of the telephones in
the rural districts, an agent for a
"Farmers' Telephone" company said
"It's the farmers wife every time who
decided whether an instrument shall
go in Or not, and I have to make my
arguments accordingly. If she says
no, that settles it. The farmer will
have nothing more to do with me
unless she changes her mind, which
she generally does when her neighbor.
Mrs. Smith, a mile Or so down the
road, tells her what solid comfort a
telephone is.
"The uses to which a woman can
put a telephone are simply surprising,
One woman went so far as to hold
the regular business meeting Of sew
ing society over the 'phone Another
had a friend give directions over the
phone about the crochet pattern for
tidy. She had her son hold the
receiver to her ear while she crochet
ed according to directions. >O1
course. some of the other subscribers
cot rather hot about it until the op-
orator at the switchboard had to butt
in and call off the tidy lesson.
But one case where the farmer put
in a 'phone in spite Of his wife, was
as follows: He argued and argued
but she was obdurate. Finally she
said: He'll just have to put it in the
hen house, for when we married we
agreed that he was to have to charge
Of everything outdoors and Of every
thing indoors. I amt going to have
telephone always ringing in my
house. Henry says the telephone will
help him in his business, and if that
is so, he can have it in the hen house
and attend to it himself. So the bell
tangled merrily among the crows OF
the roosters and the. cackle OF the
hens for a month, when it was re-
moved into the barn. From there 1t
soon made a jump to the kitchen,
where it was almost at the good W1fe's
elbow. She said apologeticallv that
it's ring was so sort O. cheerful that
she hated to have it wasted on the
- ond 1aoreee IN the barn.

INSURANCE MEASURE.
Senator HoIIinesworth Preparing
Another Bill.

Senator Hollingsworth. of ogden. is pre-
pairing a new insurance bill which will
differ in some respects from the measure
introduced in the senate Wednesday by
Senator Benner " Smith.
The Smith bill undertakes to create
separate and independent department of
insurance. Senator HOllingswOrth would
create a bureau of insurance under the
Jurisdiction of the secretary of state. with
a commissioner at its head who would
have full charge of all matters regarding
insurance companies in this state. eXceTt
the matter OF interpretations which would
be filed with the secretary of state as at
present.
Senator Hollingsworth will incorporate
in his bill a codification of existing in
slirance laws in this state. modelled after
the suggestions made by the recent con-
vention of insurance commissioners IN
Chicago.
1t is claimed for the HoilingswOrth idea
that il Will he less expensive In its in
stallation and operation than If a sepa-
rate department. were created and that it
would accomplish the same results
The Hollingsworth bill Will probably be
offered ia the senate early next week.
