A chlLp,s ENDOWMENT

Most mothers who are interested in the education of their children try to devise a plan whereby they can set aside nickles and dimes which the child receives. They generally put it in a little tin bank which will mean something to the child in the future
 New York Life has just issues 2 new policy to cover this ground.
 The New York Life Ins. O., is sues these policies payable either by annual or semi-annual premiums To secure the payment of an eB- dowment of fixed amount on at taining the age of IS, q or 25 years which ever may be selecteI at the outset. These policies pay an annual dividend. No medical examination is required.
 The amount assured is always de ferred for Q complete number of years and the date of the appHca- ton, (that is the date of the pay ment of the first premium) deter mines the date upon which the date of the contract terminates. Thus, supposing the child is three years and four months of age al the time of the application for in surance, it will receive the amount assured either at the age of eigh- teen years and four months or twenty-one years and four months Or twenty-five years and four months according eo the period of the en- dowment.
 The policy is non-forfeitable after three full annual payments have been paid. The policy has a guar anteed cash value and embraces every advantage of twenty year en- Gowment policy for an adult after the child is fifteen years Of age Should the child die before attain ing the age of fifteen years the company will return the premiums received and the dividends accru- ing on the policy. The advantage of this method of saving over any other is that the child has fixed plan for his saviug and a period to work to. We are going to make a special feature of this policy. any one interested in the future welfare of their children can get further particulars by calling at my office or dropping a card to Box SS9.

What is postal savings bank and why?
 Since Bisbee has been selected as the location of one of these steer. ribbed pocket institutions, that ques- ton has probably presented itself to many. who realize dimly what the whole things is for and about Of course a bank is place to put ones money, but why?
 It is a guarantee to the widow with her mite that when she puts her money into a bank of this kind that there is a rock bottom in the hole and that there are no tunnels on the side. It is just as if Uncle Sam. with his quadrillion roiI. hao said: Here. sonny. tor honey,) put your money into your uncle's fist; I'll keep it for you"
 America and the United States institutions. The American people like to be humbugged," said olo Barnum. These institutions com mercialized the saying; issued cap ital bosh and opened the doors. Doors of what? Just any old thing An open door is all that is necessary for starting an institution of this kind, for the doors always stand in Fitingly open. The majority of banks on on the square but their rfOore .-ra r,at eo .rf5< r..o, ..a yF they were the people would find the bad ones.
 Barnum was right, unquestionably right. when he said that the Amer. ican people like to be humbugged but since he said that America has undergone a change. Millions oi people have been coming into Amer ica from the old countries and be- coming. themselves Americans, but they are Americans who dc not like to be humbugged And just once was too much and to them all banks were robbers. Instead of paying their savings into a good American bank they sent it back to the old country. in the year 1907 the stu penduous sum of $72.111, ,74994 was sent from the United States to Europe in the form of postoffice money orders-good United States coin leaving our shores forever without doing lick of work.
 The American people themselves finally got tired of being humbugged -or at least they got sore because Barnum had told the truth about 1t and they stopped putting their money in banks of any kinds. What was infinitely worse they put it in their stockings, buried it in tin cans, near the old apple three in the southwest corner of the orchard. un- der the beehive nearest the north east corner of ;he corncrib-any where except in the banks.
 But one cannot make money and hoard it without exciting attention, through envy chiefly, and soon the report is spread that Jones is hoard ing his money and has it buried at certain place. Some day. sooner or later, Jones is murdered and his life savings arc gone
