The Bonding Business.

The custom of signing bonds for ac-
comnodations of ones neighbors and
friends comes down from the old times
OF neiehborhood barn raisings and
general custom of friendly help, but as
the raising has given place to the
carpenters crew, as the trained nurse
cares for the sick instead OF willing
neighbors, so does the Bond Company
now become surety. Signing a neigh
boris bond is like signing his note ana
the custom is going out of fashion.
Don't sign a bond for any one: don't
ask any one to sign bond for you. ex-
presses the general feeling today. The
Bonding business is a comparatively
recent addition to the work OF insur
ance Offices. Macomber, Farr K Whit
ten were quick to see the great future
of the business and have made 1t a
special study in all its complex fea-
lures. Having the general agency for
Maine for the Massachusetts Bonding
and Insurance Co they are the leading
BONDING agency in 1aine.
The Bond Companys Power of At
torney is filed with the various courts
AID they will execute a bond while
you watt for administrators, Fxecu-
tors, Guardians. Trustees, Sale Of Real
Estate. etc. such bonds are paid for
from the estate and are preferred by
Probate Courts and attorneys They
also execute bonds for receivers to re-
lieve, attachment, for injunction replav-
in, costs appeal. etc. In all cases
where the bond includes financial guar
antee they may ask indemnity or col
lateral security.
Bonds are written for contractors,
State. county and municipal offices,
secret societies bank officials and for
all persons holding positions of trust.

Liability Insurance.

The up-tod date insurance office is
continually extending it's operations to
the various forms of insurance that
are demanded by modern business
conditions. Macomber, Farr and
Written endeayor to make their office
q department store of insurancc/and
have provided facilities for prompt and
proper attention to every kind of in
surance, There has been such an
increase in these various lines that the
volume Of their business outside of
fire Insurance makes Il the leading
Office in Maine for that class of BUSH
ness.
Most prominent in this class is Liza
hilify Insurance, Employers and Pub
lie Liability Insurance is to protect
employers OF LABOR from their legal
liability to their employees and the
public resulting from accidents.
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1913-01-01

In ease Of an accident for which the
employer is liable the Insurance Com
pany settles the claim and holds the
employer harmless. In addition TO
that It fights his law suits and pays all
expenses for suits. The ordinary
liability policy is limited to $4,000 on
any one person and $4,000 ON any one
accident but these limits are varied
to meet the requirements of any bust
ness. The cost of this insurance is
based ON the payroll of the assured, an
estimated premium being collected
when the policy is written and the to-
tai expense determined by an audit of
payroll at expiration of the policy. BY
especial attention to Liability 1nsur-
ance. Macomber, Fdrr & Written have
become the leading Liability office in
Maine and many large employers OF
labor Throughout the state, who place
their fire insurance with their local
agents, are placing their Liability in
surance with the Augusta firm, recog-
ni2ing the necessity of having expert
enced men to properly handle 1t, and
to see that their interests are fully
covered. Contractors are particularly
interested in Liability Insurance. On
all Jobs offany size Contract Bonds are
required and as the Bond Companies
understand that a bad accident might
cause suits that would put the con-
tractor out of business and throw the
contract onto the bond company To
finish, they will not bond contractor
unless he agrees To carry Liability
Insurance while the bond is in force.

WORLDS DEBT TO VEGETABLE
Possibly Sun Worship Had Its Origin in Knowledge of the Fact of
 the Dependence.

Vegetable life may worry along without animals, but animal life can't continue without vegetables. There fore, says an English chemist, man owes great debt of gratitude to the vegetable. He should do his best to foster 1t. It is not intimated whe her this is an argument in favor of the theories advanced by the vegetarian, but it is considered ample proof man would not be here only for the hum ble vegetable kingdom.
 But vegetables, like animate life. are dependent upon sunlight for their existence. The vegetable, however, is both the direct and the indirect sustenance of animal being. Animal life of certain species exists solely. or almost SO. on the flesh of other ami mals. But that latter food eventually is dependent upon the vegetable. Time would eradicate animate life should inanimate cease to exist. The relations between plant and animal form a beautiful dispensation. Man owes to the vegetable more than he does to lower animal life.
 "Thus," concludes this chemist, isn't it possible the sun worshipers perhaps had a greater realization of the value of Old Sol than we ot the present century,"

livinustone's ResourcefuIness.

David Livingstone, explorer and mis- sionary, was a man of varied accom- plishments. Besides getting himself taught on board ship, and later by Sir Thomas Maclear. to take with great accuracy astronomical observa- tions for fixing latitude and longitude, besides acquainting himself with bot any and geology, with patristic litera- ture and Egyptology, Livingstone was an excellent mechanic, steersman and a mariner. His resourcefulness was at all times remarkable. When he was hard up for fuel on his first steamer journey up the River Shire he landed in the elephant marsh. Here no trees existed and no fuel was ob- tainable, but his men found many bones of slaughtered elephants, Liv- ingstone at once took the bones on board, burned them in the furnaces of the Ma-robert, and so continued bis journey.

the laws of nature, of the fam fly and of the state must be ob- served, how much more is trl1e of the laws of God? Laws that are clothed with majesty and power. Laws that stand pre- eminent above all human au- thority. Angels, principalities and powers joyfully bow to His high behests. God will not hold him guiltless that trans gresses his holy law. The sin ner's sins will surely find him out, and judgment will overtake him. Christ is the only refuge from the broken and dishonored law of God.
 Speaking of law, and the en- forcement of law, I am forced to say, that our nation, our state, approaches perfection in the measure that righteous and Godly men are given authority and power. Right here in Jack son county is a judge presiding over the circuit court, who uses every means at his command to give every man, white or black. rich or poor his full rights be- fore the law. l refer to Judge Jeffery. Men like Judge Jef- fiery are doing much towards making our earth Heaven be- low. The negroes of this coun- ty should take advantage of the privileges they enjoy by living in a community where such a good and Godly man rules over the courts. l repeat, we should take advantage of such great op- portunity, and live right, be law abiding, keep out of the courts unless drawn there for protec- tion, then when you are ma- ligned and unjustly assailed, Judge Jeffery's efforts, and his docket will go long way toward helping our cause.

statement eou0cs iac7eajole. but Ex- pertinent Mil Speedily Ccu9a-

It seems incredible that a beam Of light aould be made to produce sound, but such a thing can be done. A ray ot sunlight is thrown through a lens on glass vessel containing lampblack. colored silk or worsted. or any like substance. A disk having slits or open lngS cut in 1t is made to revolve swift ly ln this beam of light, so as to "cut It up, thus causing alternate flashes Of light and shadow. When one places his ear to the glass vessel he hears strange sounds so long as the flashing beam falls upon the vessel.
 A still more extraordinary effect is produced when the beam of sunlight is made to pass through prism, so as to produce what is called the solar spec trum The disk is turned and the col ored light of the rainbow is made to break through 1t. Now, if the ear be placed to the vessel containing the silk or other material, as the colored lights of the spectrum fall upon it, sounds will be given by the different parts of the spectrum and there will be silence in other parts.
 For example, if the vessel contains red worsted and the green light flashes upon it, loud sounds will be heard when the red and the blue parts of the rainbow fall upon the vessel Other colors produce no sounds at all.
 Green silk gives out sound best in a J,o-L Jy;, Np, ioI rx;v- more or less sound in different colors and no sound at all in others,-Har- per's Weekly.

Legislators soon got to hear of the matter, says Les Nouvelles, some of them showing themselves particularly anxious to fig ure on the film. The taking of the film lasted several days, and the oper- ator took pictures of the chamber at all times. Photographs will show the deserted benches of the morning. with . dozen or SO deputies discussing laws affecting the whole of France, the sol emn arrival of the president, life in the Hobbies, stormy afternoon ses' sion and the thronged refreshment bar.
