THE NEW INSURANCE AGENT.
He Comes in With the New Law-Paui
 Morton on His Opportunity.

The new insurance law of the State ing field for both men and women with brains and energy in the sale of life insurance. The law now provides standard forms of policies, each of which practically bears the hall mark of the State of New York, and this new order of things has established the sale of life insurance on a correct basis.
 The prohibition against relating and extravaeant allowances to agents has driven out of the business the old type of insurance agent, who in many cases virtually bought business, with large rebates, instead of selling it.. His place is being taken by profes- sors, lawyers, school teachers of both sexes, and others, who find that being a life insurance agent under the new system offers greater reward than their previous vacations. The law has reduced commissions but all of the commission now goes to the agent. Life insurance is something that everyone needs and under the pres ent system it's sale is being conducted with becoming dignity and propriety. Paul Morton, president of the Equita- ble Life Assurance Society, has taken the lead in building up an agency or ganization that is in keeping with the demands of public sentiment, and the standard he has set for his company. He says: We want new agents, both men and women, but none except en- ergetic, able and truthful people need apply. For such there is a splendid opportunity"
 MT. Morton's policy of injecting new and vigorous blood into the agency force of the Society is meeting with success in all parts of the country.

Ghosts of Dead Lakes,

In the great basin between the Rockies and the Sierra Nevadas lie the ghosts of many dead lakes.

Lake Tahoe and Bear Lake are left.

Electric Steel Smeltinu.

It is claimed for the Grongal-Kjellin electric induction furnace, which is now under examination by exports at Sheffield, England, that it solves the problem of making very large steel in gots, demanded by modern machinery, because it is as easy to make a two ton ingot in this furnace as one of 60 pounds in crucible But it is ad- mitted that at present high-grade steels can be made by the electric fur mace on a commercially successful scale, only in places where power can be obtained at an extremely low cost. Laboratory experiments have indi- cated that high-class steel can be made by the electric process from in- ferior material, but for commercial purposes this is not yet possible.
