THE KILLING LUST IN HUMANS
Man 10 Easily the Most 6Ioodthirsty Of
All the Animals of the
World.

In New Liskeard recently an owl
perched itself on the peak Of a bust
ness block as the crimson streaks of
the dawn appeared, and wrapped in its
mum OF feathers, settled itself in com
fort to enjoy the drowsy hours of day
Light. 1t was the picture of comfort
and pretty as a picture, cozy, warm in
the winters cold, i%noffensive and harm
less.
But the owl was in a FOOLS paradise.
1t had lain down with the tiger. It
was In the midst of the wolves. The
bushy little ball of feathers had fallen
unawares into the haunts of the
f1ercest and most bloodthirsty of the
worlds animals.
The sleeping bird was no sooner de-
serted than the human wolves set up a
zap. Men hurried of for their kill
ing machines, and in a few minutes a
battery of riflemen were at work
pumping death into the spark of life
an the bundle of feathers. After awhile
one OF them hit it, and then the heroes
were satisfied. They went home with
their guns, and the boys exhibited the
carcass.
Poor dead little bit of useless car
Fion! The boys eyes sparkled with
excitement.
There is a deal of the savage left

WAS NOT A GOOD SUBSTITUTE
Whisky Drinkers Experiment with
Odorous Vegetable Brought "caII"
from Employer.

Elihu Root, at the annual dinner OF
the International Young Mems Chris.
tan association in New York last
month, said that evil courses were
0 difficult to conceal than men
generally believed.
Take the case." said Mr.. Root, with
q smile, "of old John Bodewin. John
was a lawyers confidential clerk. and
ne had the pernicious habit of going
to q %neighboring saloon every morn.
ing at IL and taking a small glass Of
whisky. He was not proud of this
habit; hence, after the whisky, he al
ways took a Glove.
But n morning it happened that
there were no cloves on the bar. and
John, having considered the matter;
swallowed a small raw onion from the
Tree lunch tray. That would destroy
the tell-tale whisky odor, no doubt, az
well as the Glove had always done
!and, so thinking, he returned to his
desk.
1T was a double desk. At it he and
his employer sat face to face. John,
;on his return, was soon aware that his
employer noticed something. The
mans nostrils quivered and he shifted
and finally, with a grimace of dis
gust, he broke out:
Look here. John, I've stood whisky
and Glove for 10 years, but I draw the

Talks

Farmers as a.class carry COM
paratively little life insurance
probably for the reason that
they do not understand the bene-
fits to be derived from it. A
mong merchants and other town
and city business men life insur-
ance has a very important place
as much or more so than fire In
surance. In these times no mer-
chant thinks Of trying to get q.
long without fire insurance and
very few indeed but who carry q
large amount of life insurance.
Every farmer should carry at
least enough life insurance to.
provide his family with money
or immediate expenses in case
of his death.
Death never comes opp0rtune-
ly, and there is never a time
when q family is so greatly in
need Of ready money as at the
time of and Immediately follow
ing the death of the breadwinner
and provider. Protect your
family to this extent, at least;
don't leave those dependent on
you so that they must twist and
turn and scheme and borrow to
give you a decent burial even to
obtain the necessities of life or
to carry, on the farm.
But this is not all the benefits
of life insurance. It will not
only give your family immediate
protection, when they most need
it, but will provide all of an
estate that will help to take care
of them for all time. And. more
than that-it will provide an es
tate for your old age should you
live. 1t will do still more.pro-
vide you with means to raise
money If necessary on account of
short crops or other misfortunes,
as after the third annual pay
ment is made the company will
loan on the sole security of your
policy nearly as much as you
have paid in and at a very low
rate Of interest.
LILO SO6V VI l110 luSufduC0 IS
very low-so low that every far
mer can easily carry a $1,000
policy. The laws regulating
life insurance companies are
such that policyholders are alb
solutely protected, there is no
possibility of an old line COM
pany failing to carry out it's a.
greement.
. Investigate this matter of life
insurance and do it now. Nc
man knows what the future holds
for him and you owe it to your
family and %yourself-to see that.
your loved ones are provided
for.
We will be very glad indeed,
to give any possible information
about life insurance to any one
desiring it and trust that. all in
terested will write u.s.. Don't de.
lay this important matter, to-
morrow may be too late.
