Life Insurance Statisticians
tell us that the first period Of q
mans life, that is, to the age of
twenty, is the egotistical age,
when the son thinks he knows
more than his father.
From thirty to forty.dve is .
mans accommodating period. In
this period either success or
failure is settled. By the time q
man is forty-five, he is either on
the high road to fortune or has
lost all.
Above the age of fifty statis-
tics show that only one in five
thousand can recover his fnan-
cial footing of lost.
After sixty, ninety-6ve per

Congress also will be asked to pass
some enabling acts. The west is in
hearty sympathy with the Forester
and his efforts will meet with power
full support there. Everywhere he
goes he receives an ovation and his
name is becoming a national synon-
YIN for the peoples rights as against

felt all along that Mr.. Pinchot was
on solid ground in the position he
took and events have shown that
not only has he been fully yindicated
but also has gained largely in the
esteem Of the great public and is sus
tained by the President. Western
papers condemn the acts of Secretary
Ballinger and sustain the position
taken BY Pinchot. The only persons
who win benefit by the action Of the
Secretary are those whose business

Amendment No. ,

Some city papers are making an
effort to defeat proposed constitu
tional amendment number seven,
because IL adopted it will give the
Legislature an opportunity 30 pro
vide for the appointments Of election
officers in cities. In the conntry
and smaller municipalities they will
be elected as usual. Il is claimed
that this appointing power may Ls
placed in the hands of some one
who will appoint corrupt men TO the
position. Ifthe allegations OF fraud
aud corruption in the last municipal
primary in Philadelphia are half
true the election officials could not
be worse ballot theivers no matter
how selected. Fraud is asserted yet

success, 10 keep the ballot boxes

not open the boxes and disprove the

is such management which has
wrought havoc with majorities In
both parties in places which have
been iInpregnable. The people are
becoming moro independent and de-.

after their political affairs and ii
they will go ont to the polls and
vote they can keep party machinery

Expense OF Being careles

Many an employee who would be
shocked at the thought of telling
his employer a lie with his lips is
lying every day in the quality Of
work, in his dishonest service, in
the rotten hours he is slipping into

to his employers interests. It Is
just as dishonest to express deception
in poor work, in shirking, as to ex
press it with the lips, yet i have
known office boys, who could not
be induced to tell their employer a
direct lie, to steal his time when
on an errand, to hide away during
working hours to smoke cigarette
or take nap, not rsslizing perhaps,
that lies can be acted as well as told,
and thst acting a lie may be even
worse than telling one.
