CONCRETE BUILDINGS
NEED NO INSURANCE

AT the recent annual convention of the
National Association of Cement Users
was expressed the conviction. amounting
almost to indignation, that prevailing in
surance rates are unjust to the owners of
reinforced concrete structures II is so
well understood that reinforced concrete
surpasses all other materials in this re-
spect that 1t was natural to find impa-
thence manifested on the part of those
directly concerned in the matter. saws

however, that 1t will never be necessary
for builders of high-class reinforced con-
crete structures to importune insurance
companies to make proper concessions
Inc officers of the leading insurance com
panics are too Intelligent and far-seeing
to cut off their revenues by perpetuating
the unjust discrimination that prevails at
present. 1t is altogether that they have
not given the subject the serious consid-

will be quick to see that 1t is better to
accept low rate on a thoroughly fire.
proof structure than to have the owner
decline to take out insurance. That is ex-
actly what will htppen if excessive rates
prevail. The Individual who owns a.
structure entirely of reinforced concrete
with such supplementary safeguards as
fire-proof doors, wlreglass windows and
protected openings, may insure contents,
but he will not worry about the structure
itself. Doubtless the majority may pre-

such as might involve the restoration of
concrete structures, for example, but not
at excessive rates. The subject is one that
concerns the insurance companies more
than the owners of reinforced concrete
buildings, as there is increasing conf
dence on the part of the latter that such
structures are entirely safe.

Real Fish Story.

Every winter a we'll known Oak Park
man goes to his winter home on the west
coast of Florida and recuperates In the
balmy outdoor air and revels in the fruits
and flowers and In the fine boating and
fishing for which the west coast is noted
A strange experience befell him on his
last visit, which he has not told to a liy-
ing soul not being given to undue boast
fulness. 1t really began during the win
ter two years ago, when out in a boat
fishing one day he hooked very large
and heavy fish unexpectedly. He had be-
come reminiscent as he waited and held
his line with zone hand while the other
was thrust into his pocket. The fish
struck suddenly. the fisher jerked his
hand from his pocket in haste to try and
handle the catch In doing so he brought
out ten-dollar gold piece, which fell out
of the boat into the water. The fish
made dart at the bright falling coin
with open mouth, caught 1t, and at the
same instant broke the line and went its
way? This was during the late winter
of 1906-07.
The following winter the Oak Park man
made his usual visit to Florida and again
enjoyed the fishing and the pleasure of
outdoor life. The day before leaving for
home he was out In his boat, and among
his captures was one fish unusually large.
When this fish was taken ashore and
dressed he found inside of 1t a ten-dollar
coin, which, while he could not positively
identify, he felt sure was the one he
had lost overheard nearly year before.
But that was not the strangest part of
the story. With the ten-dollar gold coin
there was silver and copper coins to the
value of 64-cents. the exact amount of
the legal interest from the day when he
had droDned his gold coin overhoard-

COUNTRY OF TITLES.
Misuse Has Made High Sounding
Titles Mockery.

From the New York Mail.
The American wages constant warfare
on titles which postulate heredity, or
which seem to him to postulate unearned
or undue distinction. He does it, not by
scorning them, one and all, but by mis-
using them-by appropriating them for
himself, or generously comforting them
upon his fellows. The most recent usage
of the dime museums furnishes a case
in point They run to princes" and
''princesses." A prince, in the dime mu-
scum vernacular, is a man who lacks
some member, and yet has talents-who
has no legs, for example, and yet is
something of an athlete; who has no
arms, and yet can paint pictures, or play
checkers or billiards. jrincess is a
woman who charms snakes and does the
hoochee-koochee dance at the same time.
This unconscious and uneonsciously hui
morous derogation, this self-assertion of
a democracy that must have titles as
well as all other good things, runs quite
