against the Prudential Life Insur-
ance Company, TO recover $50 and in
terest from last December. as pay
ment for the funeral of man named
Edward b. Stevens, who was insured

Gluckman therefore awarded the
plaintiff the sum of $50 with S21O ad-
ditiOnal for interest, and placed tn,

its peculiar shape and exact setting.
all the other huge stones would tumble
down and be worse than useless.
The keystone, as il were, Yields the
whole structure together out of what
would be but a mass of useless, cumber

This is exactly what the Want Ads
do IN their sphere They are small al
most insignificant looking and appar

moment and consider what they are
doing day after day in their own simple

They gather together hundreds of in

The worker out of work is placed il
