be asked and answered in Bismarck

imposed task of distributing the New
Websterian 1912 Dictionaries, Illus
trated, is now well commenced.
Stop asking and answering needless
questions and start clipping coupons,
Then you can let the dictionary do
your work. Begin your clipping on

There is a way to save your patience
and provide for the children's instruc-
ton as well. Let the dictionary tutor
your tots.
Children's encyclopedias are the
latest fad among the wealthy classes,
where the importance OF letting the
coming generation learn by looking
up the answers to its own queries is
recognized. Children's encyclopedias
are very expensive and very cumber-
some, and the New Websterian 1912
Dictionary suits the purpose we'll and
requires far less expenditure and far
less space.
Your sons and daughters, nieces
and nepheWs, in fact every person in
whose welfare you are interested,
should have this beautifully bound
and comprehensive Illustrated mine
Of ready reference information always
at hand. The colored plates are par

No thumbing over big volumes. no
back breaking bending over book
stand or boo- shelves, no dictionary
that would seem to require a derrick
to lift it. The concise compilation Of
information obtained through years
of studious effort by eminent scholars
is always at hand.
This dictionary is not published by
the original publishers OF Webster's
Dictionary or by their successors.
There are three different styles OF

contents, revised to date by the best
authorities, the volume contains more
han 600 Illustrations, many OF them
on rich color plates, and 16 pages of
valuable and official charts. All Of
this for six consecutive dictionary
coupons and SO cents. ..
Then there is the regular SO edi-
ton, which is exactly the same as the
81 book, except that it is bound in
half leather. with olive edges and
square corners 1t contains all the

Whittier's Good Wishes.

A young woman once sat at q board.
Ing house table beside a reserved and
awkward country boy whom she de-
lighted to tease. When she left she
asked him to write in her autograph
album. The poem which John G.
Whittier wrote there stands as a
warning to other young ladies that she
who laughs first at a seemingly dumb
countryman may be herself laughed at
many years later. The quaint conclud.

Thy years be not a few. E

'CLERGYMAN'S TRIBUTE
TO MOVING PICTURES
Minister Makes Favorable
Comment on Picture Now
Seen At Orpheum

The Rev. f. B. Stockton, a we'll
known scholar and divine in Orange,
n. j., writes as follows to VIM. N.
Selig, concerning "The Devils, tho
Servant and the Man" which was re-
recently released and which is on the
program at the Orpheum theater at
Bismarck tonight and tomorrow.
You've done it and want to
thank you for it. For nearly three
years | have been trying to convince
church workers and educators, and
also others more directly connected
with the motion picture business, that
it was quite possible to enact the
person of Christ reverently and prop
erly on the screen; and in your re-
lease, The Devil, the Servant and the
Man. | find that you have actually
accomplished this with great rever
ence and perfect good taste.
AFTER studying the photoplay
twice, carefully, the only criticism
could formulate was that the ACTOR
who took the part. of our blessed
Lord was a trife too self-conscious;
but | can thoroughly appreciate the
difficulties under which he labored.
Under the circumstances, the fault
is rather to his credit than other
wise, as it evinces the conscientious
ness with which he was trying to
carry cut a part not only unaccus.
toned but very difficult, and one
which he knew was likely to be Sc
verely criticized. understand that
the photoplay is a rival of n You
put forward some time ago which
was so criticized, and that your OBJ
ject in reproducing it was to show
that the defects Of the production
could be corrected and incidentally,
the progress OF motion photography in
the interval between the two releases.
If so, although have seen the
first release, | should say that you
have been most successful, as ! can
not see how even the most carpi1g
critic can find fault with the release
| saw. Please feel at liberty to use
this letter in any way you may wish"

TEXAS INSURANCE MATTERS
Reports From President Stephenson
OfNTexas Life Insurance Con
vcntiOn.

Nineteen Texas life insurance COIL
panies are holding their stocknold'
ers meeting today, second Tuesday
in March, and there were probably
three thousand or more stockholders
In attendance at the home offices of
the various companies.
There were four Texas life com
panies transactlng business in the
state when the Robertson bill be-
came a law. Today there are nine
teen Texas companies. members of
the Texas Life Convention, and the
combined assets Of these companies
total more than ten million dollars
/ They issued new paid for business
during 1911 in the sum of forty
eight millions and had more than
one hundred and sixteen million dol
lars of insurance force at the
close of the year They are writ
ing new business at the re-
millions month, and expect to
place sixty millions of paid for in
surance on their books during 1912,
Texas companies combined have a
bout eight million dollars invested
in Texas securities, and under the
operations of the Robertson Law
outside companies transactlng bus
mess in the state have invested more
than ten millions in Texas mortgage
loans during the past three years
"a sum ten tines greater than the
combined holdings in Texas mort
cages of the twenty-one with draw
ing companies at the time they left
the state.
The Robertson Bill, which so stir
red up the state at the time 1t was
enacted into law, was amended by
the succeeding legislature, and again
amended and merged into a general
insurance code at a later session.
The law retains the investment fea-
ture, however. and II is this feature
of the law that has added more
than ten million dollars to the mort
gage loans in Texas, held by life in
surance companies domlciled out
side the state. The amount of such
loans carried by the twenty-one
withdrawing companies was less
than million dollors.

prince OF the royal blood heir to the
throne OF one of the Oldest Euro
pean countries was so enamored
with her charms that he had repeat
edly offered to marry her and re-

She was the envy and despair of

men had eyes for no one but her in
her presence. And while her figure
and features were beautiful It was
the surprising loneliness OF her com

charm.
