iy verdict that il was a Dit of model
legislation the insurance companies
under the law have accorded Iowa and
its employers treatment that is not
above criticism. The commissioner
calls IL unfair. He takes the coal min
ing Industry as an instance and de-
ciares the Iowa rates are seven times
as high as the actual risk requires
them to be and four times as high as
those Of Ohio, in spite OF the fat: that
Iowa mines are neither as deep nor as
dangerous as those of Ohio. II seems,
too. that in the case OF some employers
with small pay rolls inusranee COM
paries have absolutely refused TO give
them insurance on the ground that re-
turns on such policies would not be
sufficient TO warrant their taking the
business. AS a matter Of fact the fall
ure OF at least 10000 employers TO come
In under the workings OF the act is
charged in a large measure 10 the at
tituce Of the insurance companies.
The commissioner thinks the state
fund system would make an end to
exorbitant rates. that 1t would remove
all inclination to reject the act in
order 10 raise the question of negli-
gence. and. above all, that it would do
away with the temptation to discharge
aged or partially disabled employees
whose presence on the pay rolls is now
d:stasteful 10 private insurance com
panies and lays employers liable TO
higher rates by way of penalty.
Whether or not the proposed
change may be expected TO deliver
such Results as the commissioner
promises for 1t and bring mos, of the
either rebell:ous or inlif Arent 10000
employers into the fold of the law,
the recommendation is sure TO receive
the serious attention Of the legislature.

CHRISTMAS WAITS AT
PUBLIC CHRISTMAS TREE.
Popular Old English Custom Growing
In Favor In America.

Christmas waits" those bands Of
singers familiar in England for several
centuries. have been less numerous In
recent years, but the custom, with GER
tain variations. Is gaining ground In
the United States. The municipal
Christmas trees which will mark the
great holiday in many towns and cities
this year will have the singing OF
Christmas carols and anthems as
part of the exercises in connection
with the trees.
The town Of Burlington, N. j.. has
kept up the custom Of the waits since
colonial days. Each Christmas eve a
band of vocalists, recruited from the
choir Of st. Mary's Episcopal church.
start out an hour or SO before mid
night and sing carols and anthems in
various sections of the city. They visit
the homes Of the rector. the curate and
members of the vestry and sing before
their doors. AS these homes are stu.
ated in widely separated sections Of
the city. the singing is heard by prac.
tically all Of the residents.
Citizens of the town who may have
retired early are usually aroused by
the singing. and windows In upper
floors are thrown open. As the sing
ers move away after finishing the car
OILS the listeners yell greetings to their
neighbOrs. close their windows and re-
turn TO their cOzy beds.
In many Of the houses before which
the singers render concerts the occu
pants are expecting them. and they are
invited in to partake Of refreshments
They can linger but a little time. for
they must cover their arranged route

The most wonderful part of a plant
is usually that which is not visible.
The roots act not only as anchors to
hold the plant firm in the ground, but
rs wandering mouths, picking up food
and drink for their parent.
Roots travel amazing distances in
search of their requirements. A tim
Der merchant. excavating for sewer
in Gloucester, found an elm root one
and quarter inches in diameter and
So feet long running through bed Of
sawdust from the tree to the nearest
water, the Gloucester and Berkeley
canal.
The aggregate length Of root thrown
out by some plants is almost incred-
Ible. A cucumber will. within its
short life of about half year, throw
out from ten to fifteen miles of roots
Glover roots will go straight down
to a depth of six to nine feet in
search of moisture, and coltsfoot, one
Of the most powerful and persistent
Of weeds, sends its suckers down to

nToeInc the Mark.r

The phrase "toeing the mark is Of
fairly old and somewhat obscure orr
gin. Several different opinions are
held as to how It originated, but the
derivation most generally accepted is
that 1t comes from an old fashion
among military men in drilling to draw
q line upon the ground and make the
company dress" by toeing this mark
The phrase thus acquired the mean
ing Of standing up" to something, and
50 became used in quarrels, when one
Of the parties would challenge the
other to stand up to him. Even now
adays in some Of the country districts
In Great Britain It is customary for
lads when quarreling to provoke their
opponents finally to the encounter by
drawing q line upon the ground and
telling them to toe the mark" The
meaning Of the phrase az now general
ly used is to come right forward and
stand up to anything
