Over half a million are suf-
fering from the awful grip
in New York State there are
nearly 100000 cases, in Chi
cago 100000.
Mr.. w. A. Stagg, 1908 Pa
cific Street, Brooklyn, N. ",
who is vigorous at the age of
70, has been cured several
times of grip by Duffy's Pure
Malt Whiskey taken as pre-
scribed and has also been
saved by its use from the bad
after-effects of the disease.
Mr.. Stagg writes" For thirty years
DUFFY'S PURE MALT WHISKEYi
has been my one medicine. I have
always used it as prescribed and it has
proved a valuable aid, as it has not
only cured several attacks of grip but has
prevented any bad after-effects. / cannot
speak too highly of what DUFFY'S
PURE MALT WHISKEY has done for
me, and will always keep it to stimulate
and tone up my system and as sure cure
for colds and grip. Although 73 years old,
am hale and hearty, due to the iudicious
use of DUFFY'S PURE MALT WHIS-
KEY"

The quickness Of animal motion is
sometimes greater than can be detect

amusement of country boys when they
can ilnd an owl sitting on stump IN a
field to walk around the bird at a dis

AS the boy circles around the owl
seems to follow him by turning his
head, giving the impression that the
head is moving continuously IN a cir

soon as the Owls neck is twisted suf-

suddenly IN another direction, but so
suddenly that the eye cannot detect

The Apathy Of Tho Chorus Girl.


The ambitions Of chorus girl. as
rule, die young and as many refuse
lines as accept them. There was a
girl, one OF four sisters who were, all
IN the chorus Of various musical organ
izations. One night at the Grand Op-
era House In New York the soubrette
OF the company was too M TO appear,
and her understudy was also absent
In his predicament the stage manager
appealed to this particular chorus girl
TO go on and read the lines as well as
she could. The girl said she would not
only read the lines. but could sing the
songs as well. all OF which she DID. and
did with confidence and ability. and
for the FIRST time In her life had a spot
light follow her about the stage and
heard waves Of applause rush over the
tootlights which were intended for her
and her only. After It was al over
she said quite casually to the admirlng
throng that surrounded her: There's
nothing IN II. girls. I've been a chorus
girl eight years but Pm too old to be a
principal. Il hope it'll neve7 happen

INSURANCE NEWS.

The regard in which the department
with insurance men" in The Chicago
Record Herald has long been held by
insurance and business men has been in
creased as a result Of the San Francisco
conAagraton. The Record-H Herald gave
its readers the latest and most accurate
information as to insurance losses there,
and was the only paper to send special
representative to San Francisco to de-
vote his attention to the insurance side Of
the disaster. The department has also
had exclusive information Of nearly all Of
the reinsurance Of companies and other
important changes resulting from the con-
Migration. 1t constantly furnishes accLr-
ate and concise information on all i'm
portant changes In tina insurance world,
FIRE, Life and casualty. 1t has an exclus-
i've exchange with the insurance depart
ment Of the journal Of Commerce Of
New York. and through that covers the
news at the home Offices of the COM
panies and secures its cable service from
abroad. All insurance men read this
column, and business men who realize
the growing importance Of insurance are
leaning the value Of keeping informed
through it.
