M. B. AGENTS

I made my first contract as agent
for the MUTUAL BENEFIT LIFE IN,
SURANCE COMPANY more than
thirteen years ago, and during my
connectisn with the Company have
hae the pleasure Of writing the appli-
cations Of scores of the best citizens
in this section Of the state for insur-
ance-some having applied for and
obtained as many as four or five poll
cies on different dates-and 1t Is graf
flying to me to be able to state that
during my entire connection with the
company I have not had q single pol
icy holder who has so much as inti-
mated that he was not entirely salts
fed. 1t is a fact that many Of them are
Mutual Benefit Agent today. They
do not carry a rate book, but they
never fail, when they find friend or
acquaintance who is considering life
insurance, to advise them outright to
take 1t in the Mutual Benefit, or before
signing an application to see SAM
GRIST. There Is a reason, and 1t Is
that they know, by experience, that
there Is none better and they do not
want their friends to make the mis-
take of not getting the BEST, espe-
cially when 1t does not cost any more,
II as much, as the other kind. If no
friend has advised you to investigate
the MUTUAL BENEFIT, you will act
wisely II you do so anyway.

THE prophecy of turning swords
into ploughshares and spears into
pruning hooks, says Washington let
ter, is finding modern realization In
the work Of converting gunpowder into
green vegetables under the direction OF
gardeners at Fort Myer and at the In.
dian Head proving grounds. Several
hundred tons of gunpowder condemn
ed by the army authorities was marked
for destruction when some genius MT
upon the idea that its eighty per cent
nitrogen component might be used to
advantage as fertilizer. The expert
ment was tried at planting season, the
powder being scattered over the newly
ploughed truck gardens OF the two res
ervations. The results have been
amazing. The finest OF lima beans,
huge potatoes, big, juicy tomatoes and
crisp lettuce, better. bigger and more
fiourishing than any. produced In the
nearby truck gardens Of the civilian
farmers, now load the tables OF the
officers and men. Some one told Rep
resentative Bartholdt, Of Missouri,
spokesman for the international peace
propaganda in congress, and his COM
ment was: AT last they have found
sensible use for gunpowder It's the
first that has ever been suggested.

people have spoken at the polls,
and there is nothing else To do
but accept the verdict of the bal

That is our way of settling the
difference between all parties,
and when the last effort is made
before election, then peace,
friendship and goodwill should
reign. Every man is entitled to
his political opinion. and he is
presumed to he honest in that
opinion and to exercise his right
of franchise for what he thinks
is right. We may differ in opin
ions, but we must concede Il
others the rights and the privi
lodges we ask for ourselves.

BY glancing at the date, under

observe that it is Volume 4, Num-

have one thing in particular OF
which we wish to boast. and
that is our subscription list,

old subscribers are paying up
promptly and remaining with us.
We have never yet complained
