A Good Thing.

Frank G.. King is again star
ring this season as Andy Markoe
in IA Homespun Heart" Mr..
King knows good thing when
he sees it, and so does the public
and that IA Homespun Heart"
is a good thing, admits of no
question. Those who have seen
it, evince desire to see it again
and never fail to do so, when an
opportunity is afforded them.
This play is not only interesting
from dramatic standpoint, but
on account of it's moral aspects
as we'll. Itabounds in wholesome
influences and teaches salutary
life-lesson-nor is it devoid of the
comedy element. Andy's quaint
humor is irresistible and con-
vulsing. Mr.. King has taken
care to surround himself with a
capable company of actors, sing
ers and dancers. The scenery rs
beautiful and our theatre-goers
may rest assured of seeing some
thing unusually good at Broken
Bow Opera House on Jan. 18th.

Tbs Minister an Insurance Agent.

A firm dealing in life insurance
sent out annual reports of the
conditions of the company they
represent to their customers and
one of the reports fell into the
hands of certain minister who
holds down pulpit not many
miles distant from Broken Bow.
The following letter was written
by him and sent to the insurance
agents:
"GentlemeE: Again l have
been honored in the receipt of
your insurance reports. Feel
like demonstrating, however,
over the omission of one of the
companies l am in and which l
represent, which, as you know,
handles both fire and life insur-
ance. My company offers
policies almost phenomenal in
generosity. AS to fire we take
the worst possible risks, badly
constructed, with dangerous ex-
poSureS and at a merely nominal
rate. None of the companies in
Guided in your list of reports can
propose such promises as ours.
We also insure lives even when
the applicant has begun to drift
tout into the unfathomable ocean
of eternity; the premium being
only the dying prayer of the
insured.
"Indeed, l doubt if any of the
companies on your list would
dare issue policies of this sort
Our liabilities are very heavy, tc
be sure, all but stupenduous, yet
we arc very sure weshave suffic
lent surplus to cover them all
