INSURANCE AT LOWEST COST

1t goes without saying that you
want to save money on insurance as
well as anything else. This can sure
ly be done in the Missouri Mutual
Insurance Co.'s Of Rock Port.
In the department insuring build
ings and contents there was no as
sessment last year, the policyholders
thus not having one cent to pay.
In the department insuring auto
mobiles, insurance has been furnished
for one third of the old line rate.
In the tornado company Che old
est company of the kind in the state)
there has been no assessment since
April l, 1918, and only thirteen as
sessments in twenty-five years.
In the hail insurance company,
which insures crops of growing grain
against loss or damage by hailstorm,
there has been no assessment in sew
en- years.
Can these records for insurance at
low cost be beaten?
Agents for these companies are do
ing good business, but more agents
are warted-in every town in Mis-
souri, where the companies are not al
ready represented. For agencies

THE LAY OF THE CACKLE

The Goldfish lays million eggs
While the helpful hen lays one;
But the Goldfish does not cackle
To inform US what she's done.
And as we scorn the Goldfish coy,
But the helpful hen we prize;
Which indicates to thoughtful mind
1t pays to advertise.-EX.

The photograph shows the belle
of the interesting Samoan village at
the Panama-Pacific International Elk
position at San Francisco. The struc-
lures in this village, comprising the
native matched huts of the Samoan,
or as they were formerly called, the
Navigator islands, were brought in
tact from the native villages and are
absolutely faithful in all their fea-
lures. There are many native fam
lilies living in the village who for
the edification of visitors perform the
aquatic feats in which the islanders
excel, and dance the rhythmic native
dances. The life of the people of the
Pacific ocean is wonderfully illus
trated at the Exposition, and of all
the races none are more interesting
than the Samoans who exhibit many
traces of Aryan descent. No EXPOSE
ton visitor should fail to see these
unique tribespeople.

hot bath and a cold shower be-

back remembered that Aunt Mary
had left that money to me and not to
Dick and l determined to dispose of
it in my own way.
I went in and looked at the baby
for a moment. Already my heart
goes out to it.
1 wonder if Herbert and Dick viii
let me have it. l expect that Kitty
said something to Herbert about it.
Oh, 1 do so hope he will give her
to me.
After bidding Kitty's baby good
morning slipped in to bid Kitty
good-by.
She looked very calm and quiet.
Somewhere the mfschievous, the ir-
responsible, the lovable Kitty had fled
and left in her place, Kitty had
never known.
There were flowers everywhere and
I was glad, for Kitty loved flowers.
All at once 1 became aware that
Herbert was kneeling at the other
side of the coffin.
I saw his lips move in prayer; he
was carried away from all earthly
surroundings. He was taking his
grief to his God and evidently getting
the comfort which he sought, for his
face was TRANSPORTED.
1 could not help but contrast his
utter dependence on his belief and
his faith in it's ultimate reality with
Kitty's cropping exclamation: 81 don't
know, Margie, don't know"

mentality that makes him accept

not seem right to me that 1 should
come between Herbert and his dead.
The little conventionalities and
commonplace that would have had
to be said if he had been discovered
would have only been dissertation
to his love and grief.
Alone every one of us must bear
his grief, and we must have at least
one other to share our happiness, and
isn't that as it should be, little book?
At least two may be happy togeth-
er, but no one can help you bear your
sorrow-like life it is a solitary thing
and like it it holds different aspect
for each one of us.
How hard we struggle for sympa-
thy and then when it comes to us
with the best and most honest in
tention, we know, with an added Bit
terness, that when grief comes to us
end enters in, we must shut the door
and sit with her alone.
I could tell by Herbert's face that
he was saying that although he did
not know why he was thus to be chas-
tised, yet he remembered that his
Lord had said, Whom He loveth, he
chasteneth." AS that thought came
to me by whimsical chance a speech
of Kitty's echoed in my brain.
'Td rather be unloved and COM
Portable that loved much and uncom-
table"
Little book, little book-you and I
both know that one can beloved much
and not be especially comfortable.

SEMINOLE "M0V|E"
AND OTHER PROPERTY
DESTROYED BY FIRE
Tuesday Night Fire Origi-
mated at Picture Show and
Spread Rapidly = Heroic
Work Held Fire to Burnt
Area artial Insurance.

Fire Tuesday night destroyed the
Seminole picture theater, coner Union
and Hancock streets, also the two-story
dwelling adjoining and the former
Office building belonging toJ. N. Seal,
total loss estimated at $4,000 and partly
insured.
The alarm was given at 9:20 o'clock
shortly after the fire first made its
appearance. The operator of the picture
film was projecting a picture when the
film, manufactured principally of eel
luloid, caught on fire. He promptly
threw the burning "reel" out of the
enclosure where he was working. This
quick motion accelerated the fire all the
more and the film ablaZe soon exploded, !,
setting the place on fire, when the
people within made hasty exit. The
place was soon doomed and a prey to
the fire; its tar paper roof and light
pine wood material was soon feeding
an angry and quick-spreading fire and
the two-story boarding house adjoining
became enyeloped in the flames.
By this time a large number OF
citizens had assembled and the bucket
brigade got busy and began to work on
the cottage belonging to Mrs. Rosa
Templet, knowing we'll that the Seal
office building was too close to the
fire. -enveloped two-story building to
be within reach of safety. kThe
iron roof of the latter kept the flames
subdued for awhile, but finally the
structure was ablaze and 1t was with
the utmost difficulty and hard work Of
a number of young men and Others
that the Templet cottage was saved but
not after a heroic struggle. The old
steam engine furnished considerable of
the water that aided materially in
checking the fire. Too much praise
can not be given in speaking Of the men
who worked and virtually risked their
lives ia the good work, and The Echo
wishes to add its mead OF praise with
that of the general public in, speaking
of this good work.
The Seminole picture theatre building
was built on leased ground belonging
to Mrs. Pearl c.. Duble and the build
ing was owned by Albert c. Brown,
who ran the business. No insurance
was carried.
The two story building was occupied
by Mrs. Carpenter and ran as boarding
house; building owned by Mrs. Pearl c.
Duble and estimated at about $500;
insured for $500 in the George r. Rea
insurance agency.
The building formerly occupied by
Attorney Seal as his Office, was owned
by Mrs. Joan N. Seal, valued at $1,000
and insured in the Joseph F. Cazeneuve
agency for 5000. The Templet
cottage was badly damaged to the ex-
tent of 5000 or more, insured in the Rea
agency. 1t was occupied by Mrs. O. G.
Rhomer, whose household effects were
saved. Mr.. and Mrs. George Suzeneau
occupied an adjoining cottage, which
was not damaged, but their furniture
was badly battered in hurried moving.
Two mirrors of a beautiful wardrobe
were smashed.
Mr.. Brown has requested The Echo
to state that he, hopes to reopen for
business about the 1st of May.
