Look Before
You Leap---

The record Of the Mutual Benefit
Life Insurance Company, covering
period Of 64 years, shows that 1t has
never failed to give each policy holder
a square deal while living and his es-
tate or beneficiaries the same kind OF
treatment after his death. Following
Is one Of the numerous incidents In It's
career, and was related by Mr.. u. Il:
Black one of the company's general
agents for the territory embracing St
Louis, Mo-, at a meeting Of the com
pany's general agents held In Chica-
go last month:
MANY of our older agencies can
doubtless duplicate our experience at
the st. Louis Office several years ago,
which / will tell as nearly as possible
in the words of my good friend and
partner, who vouches for its authen-
ticity:
Several years ago a gentleman ap-
peared at the office and laid down
three policies-$5,000 Glass A. $4,000
Glass b. and $4,000 ordinary life, on
the life Of his father who had Just
died. He said he had read the policies,
understood that the first two were
paid-up, and worth their face, but
with a long-drawn sigh) that the
other having lapsed several years be-
fore, was worthless. He had read the
latter policy carefully. and being
lawyer had interpreted the terms cor
rectly. (The Life policy was of the is
sue of 1862 A sufficient time haV-
ing been given to allow the impression
to soak in. he was given Blank PROOF
of Loss, and the suggestion was made
that he include the $4,000 in his claim.
and it would be paid. He was natur-
ally perplexed at this, and the expla-
nation being given, he said feelingly
(for he was a half-owner in the In
surance), this Is very generous! He
was promptly reassured on this point,
and 1t was made clear that the officers
of the MUTUAL BENEFIT had no
authority to be generous with the
fund, but that it was an
OF a very fair article OF
justice, and an eXemplification OF
strict mutually"
No other company In business would
have paid the policy voluntarily, under
similar circumstances.
You do not need to know anything
about insurance in order to get all that
is coming to you under a Mutual Ben
eft contract.

sorrow and vain regrets II you leap

OBITUARY.
Mrs. Sallie Caldwell Smith.

Just a year ago today, July End, the
spirit of Mrs. Sallie Caldwell Smltn
took its departure for the spirit
world. Mrs. Smith was the daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. William Caldwell OF
Kings Creek. She was born at King
Creek. July, 23rd. 1882. She was
married to Mr.. Chas. w. Smith, OF
Yorkville. Jan. 4th. 1904. Of the un-
ion one son was born, Strauss Smith
Mrs. Smith was beautiful of per-
son and of character. She was CLOTH
ed with all the graces that make no
BILE womanhood. In her girlhood
like Mary, she chose the better par"
and gave herself to God and His
church. She first Joined the church
of her parents. the Associate Reform
ed Presbyterian, at Smyrna. After
her marriage she identifed hersell
with her husbands church, the Meth
Spdist Episcopal, South, at 1orKVllle.
And there was no more faithful mem
Ser than she. She attended upon its
orSiinances and supported its institu-
tioAs When health permitted she
DIaded the sacrifice of her presence
mnoh the altar of the church, and
xben called upon invested her talents
and energies in the church's work
She was not simply church member
SHE was a practical and beautiful
Chri$tian. .,, o,,o
ideal. She fully understood and ap-
nreciated the sacredness of these re-
,at;ons and was true to them. While
Sha took an interest IN the world
s,pout her she felt that her first work
wlas the making of a home for her low
ink husband and little boy. And Sh'
succeeded in her endeavors. Her
hoSne was indeed a little heaven on
edrAh. She showered her intensest
affe9tions on her home and loved
Ones.N In her daily walk and CONVEX
sation she furnished to them living
expreAsion of the possibilities of her
religion. and encouraged and inspired
them TO an emulation OF her hfe.
They shall see her no more in the
flesh. hut they know where to find
her i'm the spirit world. They mourn
her loss ,as irreparable, but they have
her legacy richer than gold and silver
sweet memories of a pure and noble
and IOving wife and mother.

sHop AGAINST ITS WILL.
What Happened to Fool Horse That
Was Resisting the Blacksmith.

In the early summer of 1893, 1 was
visiting the pretty town of Tuscaloosa,
Ala, and one day as ! was walking
down the main street of the town, an
incident happened which amused me
very much at the time, and I've never,
after all the years, been able to think
of 1t and repress smile.
1t was one Of those little things, in
tensely ludicrous to the beholder, yet
difficult to describe. The gutter was
four or five feet wide at the top and
sloped to nothing at the bottom.
About 40 or so feet from the street
and PARALLEL with 1t, stood black
smith shop. The blacksmith, q white
man, and a veritable Vulcan, was at
tempting to put shoes on one OF those
wild, crazy, fool horses to be met with
occasionally, everywhere.
Quite a crowd had been attracted by
the antics of the idiotic equine, (that
seemed determined to go barefooted
the balance Of his life), as he COM
menced running backward toward the
street and Of course. fell into the deep
gutter, landing squarely on his back;
and, had his measure been accurately
taken and the gutter made to order 1t
couldn't have fitted him better, and he
became as tightly wedged as the
French in the sunken road Waterloo
IDENTIFY, like a huge inverted bench and
his feet in the air.
Left to himself, he would never have
regained his liberty or the pursuit or
happiness, for his impotent struggles,
like the man in the quicksands, only
served to render his situation the more
desperate and hopeless.
Now a funny thing happened: 1t
has been said of Washington that
while his Judgment was exceptionally
sound, yet If his plans miscarried he
was slow In readjustment Not so
with the blacksmith. The horse had
scarcely ceased to struggle, before he
proceeded, rapidly and skillfully to
shoe him all around, while the crowd
cheered, after which everybody helped
to extricate him from his perilous po-
sition. I'll bet that fool horse never
again gave any trouble, but whenever
he saw blacksmith approaching him,
he would close his eyes and hold up
his foot.

HIS FIRST RECOGNITION.
The Turning Point In the Career OF
Nathaniel Hawthorne.

The Turning Point In the Career OF
Nathaniel Hawthorne.
The first reading of THE Scarlet
Letter" has been told in T. w. Higgin-
sons book Of essays, "Contempora-
ries." The reading was given to the
authors dearest critic, his wife. Dur
Ing the entire winter when he was at
work upon the book he seemed op'
pressed by some secret anxiety.
"There was knot in his forehead
all the time," said Mrs. Hawthorne.
Finally one evening he went to her
and said that he had written some
thing which he would like to read
aloud. The work amounted to very
little, but still he would like to read it.
All that evening he read, but as the
romance was unfinished at bedtime his
wife made no comments. knowing that
he disliked criticism until one had
heard the whole.
The next night he read again. and
now her suspense grew so unendura-
BILE that in the midst of a moving
scene she SILK lEOu ucl ~" SIooA ~
the floor. pressed her hands to her
ears and declared that she could not
bear to hear it.
Hawthorne put down the manuscript
and looked ut her in amazement. !.
do you really feel it so much?" he
asked. "Then there must be some
thing in it,
The next day the manuscript was
delivered to the publisher, and on the
following morning James T. Fields,
the publisher, appeared at the authors
door. When he was admitted he
caught the little boy of the family in
his arms and asked, "You splendid lit
tie fellow, do you know what father
you have?'
He had sat up all night to read the
manuscript and had posted out to Sa-
lem in the early morning. After his
interview with the publisher Haw-
thorne came downstairs with firm
step and walked about, his face 1llu-
mined by new hope and vigor. The
world had found him out. Recogni-
ton was at the door.

SHOOTING WHALES.
Modern Whalers Use Cannon and an
Explosive Harpoon.

Explosive Harpoon.
Whaling with modern methods In
Alaskan waters is an exciting game,
especially for those who are new to
the business. The modern whaling
steamer is a little vessel almost round
on the bottom, which enables it to be
turned and managed with the greatest
ease. Mounted at the bow is small
cannon that shoots harpoon weigh
ing more than 100 pounds and having
an explosive head, called the bomb.
If the shot is good and the harpoon
is planted squarely behind the fin. the
bomb crashes into the lungs, killing in
stantly: if not. the struggle may last
for several hours.
After a whale has been killed the
carcass is brought alongside the boat
and inflated so that it will float. A
long coil Of rubber hose. one end of
which is attached to a pump and the
other to hollow spear pointed tube
of steel, with perforations along its
entire length, is used for this purpose.
The spear is thrust well down into
the whales side, the air pump started
and the body slowly filed with air.
When inflated enough to keep it afloat
the tube is withdra wn, the incision
plugged with oakum and the carcass
cast Off. A buoy with flag is at
tached to the body. and it is then set
adrift to be picked up at the end OF
the days hunting.
The whaling station Is group OF
buildings situated in bay or cove
near enough to the feeding grounds to
allow the steamer to come in each
night with the days catch. The
whales are anchored at buoy in front
of a long. inclined platform. upon
which they are drawn, tail first, by
means Of a steam winch.
The saying that every part OF the
pig but the squeal is now of market
value is also fact with the whale.
Not a particle of the animal is wasted.
After the skeleton is stripped OF flesh
it is disarticulated and the bones chop
ped in pieces.
The blubber is tried out for Oil. and
the meat and bones are boiled for the
same purpose. Later the flesh is art1-
ficially dried and sifted, making fine
guano, and the bones are ground up
for fertilizer. Even the blood Is boiled
and dried with the flesh, and the wa
ter in which the blubber has been
tried out makes excellent glue. The
fms and tail, after being sliced into
thin strips, are sailed and barreled and
shipped to Japan as an article Of food.
Worlds Work.
