RUSTY THOUGHTS DEFINED
Mrs. Mildred Manly Easton
Talks to Fine Art Club.

1t is possible for woman to wash,
iron. cook and scrub without ever de-
scending from n high plane Of mental
serenity. So Mrs. Mildred Manly Easton
told the members OF the Life as a Fine
Art Club. at their meeting at the Hotel
Astor Yesterday.
1T all depends on the kind Of thoughts
YOU store up in your brain" she said.
Too many women have widowed
thoughts. Prejudice is mildew. Women
nurse prejudices against this or that
neighbor or acquaintance or the way
their children have of doing things. and
Il keeps their minds all stufy and
chained down TO the routine Of everyday
work.
Then there are rusty thoughts.
Thoughts get rusty from dwelling too
much on the past. If women knew how
fatal il is 10 reminisce they wouldn't do
st. When woman begins to reminisce
the last knell is sounded for her youth
But the worst of all are cutworm
thoughts, unkind, uncharitable or envi-
Gus thoughts of others. that burrow in
the mind like destructive worms and
take all the Juice out of it"

1T is true that the Mutual now IS
charging per cent on policy loans an
official OF the Mutual said yesterday I'VE
began making loans on policies as early
as 1899, and those bore ) per cent The
loans of that class have increased greatly
since the insurance laws were revised In
1907. and We have simply taken advantage
of the clause which permits the higher
interest charge"
At the Offices OF the Equitable Life
Assurance Society and the New York
Life Insurance Company 1t was said that
they did not contemplate an advance in
rates at present. For more than year,
however, both have been issuing policies
containing the 6 per cent clause, and 1t is
believed by experts that they may follow
the Mutuals lead within few months.

Large Part Of Companies Assets

and Expense.

Taking advantage OF clause in the
revised insurance laws. the Mutual Life
Insurance Company has increased its in
terest rate on policy loans from . to per
cent. Loans on new policies and loan re-
newals or extensions on older policies are
Icing charged at the higher rate.

are considerably reduced by the demand

Of policy issued, must be made.
Discussing the problem of policy loans,
one OF the most experienced life insur-
ance experts in the city said yesterday:
This question Of loans has developed
into a serious problem for the big life
insurance companies. Their assets are not
fluid, and the constant extension Of loans
is a factor to be reckoned with. None OF
the Eastern companies ever has been
faced seriously with it, but one first class
Western company did undergo that eX
perience during the panic OF 1907 and the
aftermath oe 1908. The company had to
go into the market and sell gilt edged s

And ii was found. too. that some
policyholders were borrowing money at 5

the policy loan proposition can be abused

such loans on per cent basis IL will

OSCAR INFLAMED

Hammerstein Fears Public Boy.
colt and Asks Injunction
to Stop Show.

The latest opponent OF the Traffic in
Souls as described in the films Of the
moving pictures is oscar Hammerstein.
But the opposition that comes from the
impresario and theatrical manager is
not based entirely on the same ground
that caused the police recently to shut
down two theatres that displayed similar
films
Dir. Hammerstein. however. IN behalf
Of the Hammerstein opera Company
gave some apparently good commercial
reasons in the Supreme Court Yesterday
why David Belasco and the Universal
Film Company should cease their exhi-
bition of the "soul traffic pictures a the
Republic Theatre. in West i2d street.
which the Hammerstein company owns
ana Belasco has under lease
An injunction 10 restrain the further
exhibition Of the pictures was asked for
by Mr.. Hammerstein. lie holds that the
pictures arc lowering the tone Of the
theatre. and that the agreement Is being
violated under which Belasco took tho
Republic, which provided that he was to
present only hrst-class plays. II Is also
affecting income from the property. for,
whereas Mr.. Hammerstein's income for
his share OF the receipts used 10 be 800
a week besides the 5000 rental that Mr.
Beasco has been paying, this percentage
with the % cents admission now being
charged has been reduced to $50 week.
Mr. Hammerstem further complained
that the mortgage OF the theatre prop
erty was threatening to call for the can
collation. of the mortgage on the ground
that the value OF the property was
being diminished by the complained-ot
picture show.
Furthermore, Mr. Hammerstein said, hs
has been compelled to take out $4,000
more OF fire insurance on the theatre
on account OF the increased hazard the
insurance companies have TO take With
the incammable show. Mr.. Hammersts'n
expressed the fear that the public mind
would become inflamed against the Re"
public Theatre, because the pictures being
shown there are similar TO those which
the police have already banished. Argyll
ments will be heard tomorrow on thu
petition for an Injunction.
