New Departures in Insurance.

Insurance against death. loss by fire
or by shipwreck, burglary, bad debts,
illness, physical injury, lack of employ
ment, defective real estate titles. and
a hundred and one other risks is now
an old story. The slight injury to Pade-
rewski's ingernail reveals, the exist
ence Of $4,000 policy protecting it
and recalls the fact that Kubelik's
precious finger tips have been similarly
safeguarded. No doubt companies ac-
cepting speculative risks would for a
sufficient premium insure the delicate
threats of prima donnas against
hOarseness, says the New York World.
Yet, familiar as are the ramiications
of insurance, the institution of insani-
ty insurance in Great Britain will appear
a novel departure. According t., our
Consul &C Dunfermline, policies of this
I character provide for the payment of
$500 year during five years of men
tai incapacity in return for an annual
premium offs $50, while premium of
So insures the payment of $500 during
an unlimited period of insanity. Very
possibly the possession of az policy
against insanity would tend to retard
II not to prevent the development of
the disease, such is the power of men
tai suggestion. In this country COM
pany insuring against attacks of de-
mentia Americana or homicidal brain
storms and providing for idemnifica-
ton of the victims family would be
reasonably certain of a good business.
In the matter of new forms of in
surance. that proposed by Assembly
man Marks for the benefit of automo-
bile victims will receive popular in
dorsement. By the provisions of the
Marks bill all owners and drivers of
automobiles must carry insurance to
the amount of $4,000, available as
compensation for damage to property
or to persons caused by the operation
of the machine, and not including its
occupants. Hired chauffeurs are to be
insured COR Sc, 900, to idemnify owners
against damage. In England motor-car
insurance exists for the protection of
the owner against injury to himself or
accident to the car. But the enforced
insurance of automobiles for the pro-
lection of the public is novelty of
legislation as well as of insurance.

Sayings Of Lincoln About Mat
tiers Of To-day.

l think that the reasonable men of
the world have long since agreed that
intemperance is one of the greatest,
of all evils among. mankind.
To secure to each laborer The whole
product of his labor, or as nearly as
possible, is a worthy object of any good
government, With some men liberty
means for each man to do as he pleas
es with himself and the product of his
labor; with others it means to do as
they please with other men and the
product of other mems labors. That
issue will continue in this country
when my poor tongue shall be silent.
1t is the externally struggle between
right and wrong. The common right
Of humanity and the divine right of
the kings In whatever shape 1t de-
velops itself into it is the same ty-
rannical spirit that says: "You toll
and work and earn bread and I'll eat
it. >"
Labor is prior to and Independent of
capital. Capital is only the fruit of
labor and could never have existed
first. Labor is superior to capital and
deserves much the higher consider
alton. No men living are more worthy
to be trusted tnan those who toll up
from poverty. Let them beware of
surrendering a political power which
they already possess and which, if sur
rendered, will surely be used to close
the door of advancement against such
as they. and to fix new disabilities and
burdens upon them, till all of liberty
shall be lost.
l should be the most presumptuous
blockhead upon this footstood if 1 for
one day thought that l could discharge
the duties which have come upon me
since l came into office, without the
aid and enlightenment OF One who is
stronger and wiser than all others.
With malice toward none, with chart
ty for all, with firmness in the right
as God gives US to see the right, let US
strive on to finish the work we are in;
to bind up the nations wounds, to care
for him who shall have borne the bat
lie and for his widow and his orphans
to do all which may achieve and cherish
just and lasting peace among our
selves and with all nations. From the
February Circle Magazine.

Signs of Cooling OFF.

Is the good feeling between England
and Japan cooling off? There are signs
that it is. In the naval conference held
in London the British author tiles were
sanguine that Japan would support
their propositions, but they took the
opposite position. Then too, the Japa-
nese minister at Pekin declined to go
with the American and British min
listers to inquire of the Chinese govern
ment its attitude OH internal reforms
and their bearing upon international
relations.

In the Interest Of Economy.

A man who chews twenty cents
worth of tobacco a week concluded to
try tobacco cure. In two weeks he
ate $l.50 worth of the Cure" and for
the next two weeks he used ten cents
worth of yucatan, five cents worth of
candy five cents worth of peanuts and
five cents worth of cough drops per
day. During these two weeks he also
consumed two large rubber erasers,
ate the rubber tips from fourteen lead
pencils, chewed up a dozen pen holders
and browsed off his moustache as high
as he could reach. He is now chewing
tobacco in the interest of economy.

minutes.
How did she love him?
All; she loved him in ST varie-
ties" of ways,
Why did she love him?
She loved him Cd because he
possessed dark and fascinating eyes
which like red-hot Goals, burned
into her young SOUL" (2) because
his head was covered with Supera-
bundance of. brown, curly hair; CD
because a dear of a muStache'
adorned his fine, sensitive lips;
(N because but why enumerate
any further!
He opened his lips. No use.
Nothing could stem the torrent OF
her ardor. He opened his lips
again
Edgar" she cried in alarm, you
are yawning you have yawned

that day. Alter COallng and clean

tri 10 the Holy City of Jerusalem.
Returning once more to Messina
passing on our way the island of
Rhodes, where formerly stood the
Colossus of Rhodes another of the
seven wonders (Which has now
been tumbled into the sea as the
result of an earthquake) we receiv-
cd the welcome orders to return to
the United States.
Again getting under way at the
earliest possible moment for Naples,
Italy, we arrived there July 10th
and coaled Immediately. On Sun
day, July II, we were startled by
an explosion which could be felt in
all parts Of the ship. 1t caused
considerable excitement at once,
the news having spread that it was
an explosion of one of the forward
magazines and a second and proba-
bly, worse one was expected to fol-
low at any moment. Upon inveSti
cation, however, it proved to be an
explosion of fire-damp in one of
the forward coal bunkerS. Ensign
Aiken was found on deck, where
he had been blown from the bunk
er, burned almost beyond recOgni-
ton, he was Immediately taken to
the sick bay where the two Sur
geons did all that was in their pow
er to relieve his suffering. He died
that afternoon. Chief Walter Ten
der Mullen was also burned severe
ly about face and hands, but not
fatally. 1t was a very sad acct
dent, nevertheless all hands felt
very thankful that no more were
killed or injured. The body of Mr.
Aiken was embalmed and sent tC
his relatives. AS it was put over
the ships side he was given a mill
tary funeral with the usual three
, vOlleys and taps sounded on the
bugle. This is the first fatal acct
, dent that has occurred on this

-Four Points to
Be Considered.

There are four points that should
be considered in selecting a school
to attend.
First The schools financial
standing, for the student does not
want to attend a school today that
will pass out of existence tomorryw.
The kIoberly Commercial College of
MOberly No, has a paid in capital
and surplus of over 100000. 1t
is owned and operated by men who
have proven themselves successful
business men.
Second: The moral surroundings
Our teachers are ladiessand gentle
men of the very highest character.
We look after our students while in
school, we encourages them in hon
esty and uprightness. We teach
them that true success is built on
the foundation of honesty, a square
deal to everyone.
Third The systems and methods
used. We use the famous Byrne
systems of Shorthand and Book
keeping, which enables us to turn
out a better bookkeeper or stenog-
rapher in half the time and at half
the cost of other schools teaching
other systems We have the eX-
elusive control of these systems in
this state. Therefore, the Byrne
systems are a case of sour grapes
to our competitors. The fact that
we turn out better stenographerS in
three months than they can in six,
and place our graduates into better
positions than they can, is what
. should interest the prospective STU
, dent. Read our catalog, see the in
: ducements from hundreds of stu
: dents and business men.
Fourth: Our ability to place you
2 in a good position; after we have
: thoroughly prepared you, you then
need our assistance in securing a
good position with a responsible
e firm, where you can earn a good
e salary. We realize that in order to
f succeed our students must succeed;
j the greater their success, the great
e er our success; their success IT fleets
i credit upon our ins;ttG,ion and
f causes their friends to follow in
i their footsteps. What is the use Of
your attending a school six months
| to get an education that can be had
in our school in three months? The
other fellow hasn't the advantages
s of our most modern systems, there
! fore, it is utterly impossible for him
I to make a good Stenographer or
4 bookkeeper of you in three or four
months.

Twenty New Bridges Ordered.

County court, before adjourning
last week ordered Bridge Com
missioner Caldwell TO advertise for
contracts for the construction of 6
new steel bridges, to be erected as
follows: A 26-foot bridge near
Stoutsville, a 42-foot bridge near
Lakenan a 3S-foot bridge near
Hunnewell, a 42-foot bridge near
Holiday, a 30-foot bridge near
Shelbina, a 3S-foot bridge near
Paris. Orders were also made for
IA small bridges in various parts of
the county and for tubes for bridge
at Holiday. Orders for two big
steel bridges near Perry and Paris
were withdrawn for the present.
This is perhaps the biggest single
order ever made in this county,
but the present court believes in
roads and bridges and stops only
when the money gives out. We
now have one of the best bridged
counties in the state and in a few
years will have as much rock road
as any of them. Mercury.
