Should Make Wills.

The necessity Of making a will for the final disposition of ones property after death is subject to the con- sideration of which most men ap- IS in 1t that accepted and direct pre- paration for personal dissolution from the contemplation of which human na- ture naturally shrinks. and which seems to attach to no other act gen erally and voluntarily performed The purchase Of a buriel lot is usually a
 melancholy proceeding, in spite of the floral attractiveneSS of the cen etery:
 but there are many chances that it will not be our demise that will first put 1t to use, and even with the best or men an inward and selfish satisfac-
 t1on commonly comes with this thought.
 The question of insuring ones life Is thought to be productive of su ugges- tions of mortality; but it is safe to say that the anterior prospect of ob- taIn1ng, while living. some dividend on the investment is the point toward which most men direct their attention
 and thus include, by preoccupation, the more depressing alternative. In deed, this feature in life insurance is one which holds out to the average mind strong inducements, on account of it's character as disguise to a more important but unpleasant trans action; and in this particular it might be well for the large insurance com panies to study the ranges of the hu- man feeling and fancy even more fully than they have done. The number of those who die intestate proves very conc1usively that in many sensitive minds there is a painful heSitancy which prevents them from writing out a simple statement of desires, which they must be aware would be of great service to- their heirs, and frequent ly save an immense amount of labor and sfaction.-Meriden Journal.

A Poor Denial

Mrs. Knox, Jr., can hardly hope to make a good impression on her dis tinguished but somewhat disappointed father-in- law if she continues to man. ifest a disposition to show resentment to the report that she once worked in q department store. That is as hon orable a place for a girl to earn her living as any other. and if Mrs. Knox was ever thus engaged she ought to be proud of it. Instead, however she is being quoted as saying that 'fher aunt would never have permitted her to do such thing.'' Some of the best men and women in this country have had an humble beginning, many of them in their early days having been obliged to work at less remunerativ toll than that of a department store. The fact that they did work for their living was subsequently, the proudest recollection of their lives. There is no occasion for one denying having earn ed his or her own living, but on the contrary they should be proud of it.
 Mrs. Knox may think differently of it some day and she may not be so proud of the judgment of her aunt prevent = ing her from working or of her own thoughtlessness in making announce ment of it-New Britain Herald.

More Than Dollars.

The chief end of man isn't to get rich. It isn't at all essential that ev- erybody should be very rich, or even "a millionaire, which doesn't measure very high in the scale of riches to- day. You probably know several mill Iionaires to whom you can bow and speak, with whom you are on friendly with you; rather taciturn, not hap pier looking than other men; rather Economical with their smiles, and ab- solutely sniserIy with their "haw- hawsi"
 And you are on good terms with a hundred clerks, who are good clerks and who will be good clerks so long ts they live and who are the jolliest fellows to go out with or stay in with or run around with: who get S5 worth Of fun out of 25 cent seat at the ball game; who whistle and laugh and sing without knowing why; who live every hour of the day; and who talk more about their little bungalow on its 50 foot lot than ever Schwab did about his million dollar palace on Riverside Drive, and who in the pride and joy of a little home have been known to run the mower over the handkerchief lawn and dig in the patch Of a garden on Sunday. It doesn't take a great deal to make a man a millionaire Only a million dollars. But it takes great deal more than that to makeAh him rich. Sometimes as much as $60>s.dmonth-
 Josh Billings once said: Young man, make all you kin; save all you git; don't spend g. cent; and if you don't die rich and go to the devil, I miss my guess."-Robert J. Burdette in Los Angeles Times.

Askina Much.

Secretary Goodwin's reference in
 Waterbury to his association with Gov. Lilley and his intention, if elected gov
 ernor, to make the former governor s
 policies his own, strikes different peo-
 ple differently. The New Britain Her ald remarks that it made him popular
 The New Haven Register sees in it evidence that those policies are more
 popular than they were two years ago.
 The New Haven Journal Courier can't
 see why any governor should tie him
 selg up with the policies of any prede-
 cessor Roosevelt and Taft both fail ed in the attempt. If bound to do 1t, however, MT. Goodwin might better,
 it says. promise to follow the policies of Gov Weeks, or, better yet. try to 'scombine in himself the business judg- ment of James F. English, the personal
 charm of Marshall Jewell, the master
 ful grasp of Richard D. Hubbard, the thoughtful deliberation of Henry B.
 Harrison" That is not asking much Finally, the Journal Courier says that if Mir. Goodwin will rely on '1h1s own attractive merits" he need not feel called upon to hitch his cart to an- others star" The Journal l-Courier's S success in steering candidates against the current of the Lilley policies has not been so great as to induce Sec retary Goodwin to resign the helm of his own canvass.-Waterbury Amerl- can

During the past week amendment has been made to the act incorporating the Westerly Automatic Telephone company which authorizes an increase in capitalization at the discretion of the stockholders, not to exceed $2OO, : 900. When the company was organized in 1902 the capital stock was $25,000. The following year, when the telephone service was extended to the. towns Of Hopkinton, Charlestown and Richmond, the stock was increased to $1OO,OO0. There has been steady growth Of business and there is demand for more extensive service, and to meet this de- mand and to improve the property of the company and extend the service the general assembly was asked to grant authority to increase the capital stock to $200,000. This does not s1gni- fy that stock to that amount will be issued at one time, but only sufficient to meet all requirements, as the stock holders may direct.
