The low rate allowed by the gov
eminent and the special disability
clause, providing that the policy
shall be paid if the insured becomes
totally disabled, regardless of age,
are granted only to soldiers and sail
ors holding the regular term poll
cies issued under the war risk act,
the maximum amount being $4,000.
If death occurs after an annual
premium is paid, refund will be made
for all except the current month, a
new feature and differing from pri-
vate insurance policies, which allow
no refund under such conditions.
Converted policies will participate
in dividends earned from any mortal
ity or interest savings and may be
used to reduce premiums or accumu-
late at compound interest.
All policies are non-taxable, incon-
testable and non-assignable for
debts. Cash values under converted
policies are provided beginning at the
end of the first year, being the full
81 per cent reserve value. Loans
may be made up to "a per cent of
the cash value. Participating, paid
up and extended insurance is guar
anteed in all converted contracts.

HOW CAN YOU TELL YOUR
FAVORITE TOBACCO?
As Plain as the Nose on Your
Face-JuSt Smell 1t

Smokers do not have to put tobacco
in their pipes to find out if they like it.
They can just rub the tobacco between
the palms of their hands and smell it.
The nose is an infallible guide to smok-
ing enjoyment.
All smoking tobaccos employ some
flavoring "to improve the favour and
burning qualities of the leaves, to
quote the Encyclopedia Britannica.
Naturally, there is considerable differ
ence in the kind of favorings used, and
the nose quickly detects this difference.
TUXEDO Tobacco uses the purest,
most wholesome, and delicious of all
flavorings- chocolate. And the almost
universal liking for chocolate in great
measure explains the widespread popu-
larity of TUXEDO Tobacco.
Carefully aged, old Burley tobacco,
plus a dash of pure chocolate, gives
TUXEDO Tobacco a pure fragrance
your nose can quickly distinguish from
any other tobacco. Try it and see.

average 80 per cent lower than rates

panies. They are based upon the
American experience table of mort
ality with interest at 3b per cent
Figured on a monthly basis, but be-
cause the government pays all ex-

made for premiums paid for war
risk insurance.
Premiums paid annually are
slightly less than when paid month

Mrs. w. j. DeVereauX was on the sick

much improved at this writing.
Alberta is again entirely free from

the victims if it were not for fear of a
relapse, would scarcely remain in doors
