hibit the railroads from issuing free

QUEEN ENJOYS PUFF

London. Dec. 22.-Queen Alexandra
has popularized smoking In English
society. During the entre.actes on her
frequent visits to the opera Her Ma.
esty smokes a cigarette in the ante
room adjoining her box. and doubtless
she similarly enjoys an after.dinner
cigarette at home. Ma.
The cosmopolitan habit of smoking
which. English society women have
now taken up has made great changes
in social customs.
Men who smoke are not. as former.
ly, banished with their cigars to the
smoking or billiard rooms. but are al.
lowed To smoke even in the drawing
room. Women now smoke dainty
scented cigarettes quite naturally ut
the bridge table, and cigarettes are
even handed round at afternoon tea.
Although some aristocratic houses
stu regard the smoking of women
with horror, II is evident that the
adoption of the cigarette has created
spirit OF camaradcrie between the
sexes and weaned men from the at.
traction Of a different sort of women.
This is one good effect of an innova.
ton which on the face of It is far
from commehdabie.
Queen Maud ~ Norway must have
felt like a young girl the other day
when she received a severe lecture
from her mother, Queen Alexandra.
The trouble arose through Norway's

The wearing of osprey feathers has
long been denounced by the Queen,
who wears imitation plumes SO that

Unfortunately for Queen Maud a

Protection OF Wild Birds was present
AT the function and Immediately spot

wrote to the Queens secretary about

received a lecture and has not been
seen wearing an osprey feather since.

Royal Insurance Company Of Liverpool

Many of the Companies which at
the memorable meeting Of June 18th
voted in favor of horizontal deduc
ton of mot less than 25To,' have. ns
We predicted, found It impossible TO
settle their San Francisco losses on
that basis and have been forced,
though reluctantly, to pay consider
able more than an average Of $50 Of
their claims. Some which voted to
adjust every claim on it's merits and
pay the same Dollar for ID jllar,"
have fallen away from that high and
correct standard and have submitted
their policy holders to sharp deduc.
tons from adjusted claims. Others.
while paying in full have. In accord
Gnce with Eastern usage, exactcd n
I cash discount In lieu Of sixty days
time In which to make payment.
The "RoYAL" has paid every
claim as soon as the amount Of loss
has been agreed upon with the assur.
I'd, In full, In cash, without a cent OF
discount. Comparatively few compa.
nies have pursued Ms broad and as lib
eral course.
We have refrained from commenting
upon the conduct of any individual
company. believing It better to extol
the virtues of our own. The ROYAL

has paid to date 1859 claims. aggre.

losses were not very much more than
Cne.third OF one years premiums. and

II has been building up It's reserves
for years against just such disaster
as came to San Francisco and was

You are perfectly safe In putting
