and men of the army are most shocking
So bad did it become that iti now stated
officially that several months ago an or
der was issued prohibiting officers from
living with Filipino women, on the
ground that such conduct was disgrace
to the service and the flag, and prescrlb-
ing the penalty of dismissal for every
person found violating it. Besides the
disgrace suffered by the United States
and the army, it was announced, the
practice is injurious in its effects upon
the Fillipinos, and lessons that feeling Of
respect for the government class which
the latter should enjoy. This ia 3 shock
ing state of affairs indeed and reports
from the Philippines are to the effect
that the "order" is openly violated daily
and that the "social evil' there is on the
increase, against the peace and dignity

The Richmond Primary.

The democratic primary election, for
the House and Senate in Richmond yes
terdsy, passed off very quietly. Less
than 1900 votes were cast, the small
ness OF the vote polled being in part due
to the heavy rain of the afternoon and
early night 1t is estimated that the
weather kept at least 1000 voters away
from the polls.
Two Senators and FIVE members of the
House of Delegates were elected, there
being twice the number of candidates in
each instance as there were offices to be
filed. The election resulted as follOws:
For the Senate, f. @. Flokes aud A.
@. Harman (ce-elected); for the House,
c. P. Cox (,e-electeo); Harry Glenn re
electeo), Eugene @. Massie (re-elected),
Charles E. Wingo, and Hill Montague.
Interest in the election centered in the
candidacy of A. Bsirne Blair, a member
Of the Board of Alderman, for the Sen
ate in opposition Of A. @. Hartman.
Hartman won by the narrow margin OF
seven votes, the last precinct heard from
deciding the contest. Blair has iiled

PURIFIED LIFE INSURANCE.
Benefits from New Law, Which Re-
mains Substantially Unchanged.

Through the influence Of Gov.
Hughes, the New York Legislature de-
cided to make no radical changes in
the new insurance law. 1t was pointed
out by Gov. Hughes that the New York
law has already accomplished wide
spread reforms, with proportionate
benefits to policyholders, and that it
should be given a thorough trial be-
fore any amendments were seriously
considered. 1t is estimated that the
cost of the Encouragement of the past
did not average more than 20 cents to
each policyholder, while the benefits
to present and future policyholders
will amount to many times more and
be cumulative besides. The speed
craze of the big companies and the ex-
cessive cost of securing new business
was the most ~extravagant evil of the
old arrangements. Under the new
regime the cost of new business has
already been greatly reduced, along
with other economies.
Liz SHOWluS nduo Wy Lie Equltdulo
Life Assurance Society in its report
for 1906 was a strong argument
against meddling with the new law.
In the Equitable alone there vas a
saving of over $4,000, 900 in expenses,
besides an increase in the income
from the Society's assets amounting
to as much more. The ratios of the
Equitable's total expenses to its total
income was 1929 in 1904, 1889 in
1905, and only 14.48% in 1906. The
dividends paid to Equitable polic~-
holders in 1906 amounted to $7,2S9,7 34:
which was an increase of more than
go over 1905.
While the Equitable made a better
showing than any other big company,
all reported radical economies and I'M
der such conditions the Legislature
wisely decided to leave the law sub
s~tantially as 1t stands.

Women as Lawmakers.

son why they should not know 1t.
These women have won congressional
honors and assumed the duties of law
makers in Finland. At the election
held in that country only a couple OF
weeks ago the socialists developed sur.
prising strength, and, consistent with
their pretensions, they nominated a
number Of women for congressional
seats. This forced the other parties
to do the same thing.
When the ballots were counted II
was found that 10 women had beer
elected, nine Of them socialists. They
have taken their seats and promise
to make good lawmakers. To fully ap
~preciate the Importance Of this 1t mus,

How often you hear one business

Pluck and enthusiasm are the pow
srs which make the winner. With

greatness in their line are those who
possess an abundance of enthus-

A possession that Is better than any
thing else to a man is that determine
ton of character known as pluck, and
In enthusiastic confidence that he will
succeed.
To persevere against great odds,
and to make a victorious fight in the
face of almost impossibilities, it re-
quires pluck which is not governed by
impulse.
To cultivate pluck n must encour
age steadfastness of purpose. When
a thing is begun it should be fin

public will not know it unless you tell
them about it; they are not clairvoy-
ants. First use the newspapers liber-

talk to them when you a catch them
In your store, at their homes-any-
where. The FIRST and last thing to
bear in mind about advertising Is that
it is as wide as human nature. in it's
appeal.
Advertising is the mighty engine of
success, and without it the business
world would be minus its dynamo Of
energy.
