STANDARD LIFE INSURANCE

The year just closed has been, in many
respects. one Of achievement and progress for
our Country and our Race. We have tried to con-
tribute what we could towards lifting the bur-
dens Of others and retain our position as an Old
Line Company
With the turning point behind us, we are
facing the New Year with every hope of success.
The Nc conditions coming so suddenly will have
tendency to discourage those who are timid.
We wish to sound this note of warning to our
people everywhere Lose all timidity. Be of good
cheer and press on. These new conditions are
the passing OF an inflated period and the gradual
return to normal conditions.
We strongly urge upon our people the neces-
sity of Systematic Saving, that they may not be
affected by the sudden change A Life Insur1

JUST MATTER OF DEDUCTION
AS the Boy Explained 1t, the Finding
of Horse Was Really Quite
Simple Matter.

Speaking of the development of the
storytelling talent in youth, Richard
Bennett, the actor, is fond of relating
this incident:
Some years ago a prominent citizen
Of town lost horse. 1t was not
much of horse. In fact, it was blind
in one eye and spawned. But, per-
haps as relic, Bennett says, the
prominent citizen wanted the horse.
So he advertised, offering So reward
for its return. The town half-wit, a
boy of nineteen, with harelip, came
one afternoon leading the horse, with
n strap about the size of shoestring,
to the prominent citizens door. The
horses owner was pleased.
"Now," said he kindly, scenting n
good narrative and perhaps an ad-
venture. now, my boy, here's your
$5; and I'll give you another S5 If
you'll tell me just how you found my
horse"
"Well, all right" said the hoy. 81
JUS thought if l was that old horse
where would go, and 1 did and he
was"
He got the extra fve.-Kansas City

NOT IN WHOLESALE BUSINESS
Amount of Rouge This DamseI Would
Require More Than Druggist
Carried in Stock.

The drug store was quite near the
dancing hall but the druggist was not
a dancer, and had been in bed many
hours when he was awakened by the
violent ringing of his night bell.
With sleepy words of complaint he
pulled himself from his warm bed.

poor soul may do a guy" he murmured
phiIosophically.
Throwing up his bedroom window

to rush past him, then put his head
out.
Below he saw young lady.

inquired. "Is anyone dying?"
"Oh, not" came back in sweet tones.
"Rut I'm dancing at the hall close by.
and l have quite run out of rouge"

chemist. II am very sorry. miss, but
I never keep enough rouge in stock to

Then he banged the window down
and returned to bed.-Chicago. Daily

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect 1t
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from report. from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp.Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one Of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview ON the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
20 many applicants for insurance are re-
jected 10 because kidney trouble is SO
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica:-
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. It is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to Dr.
kilmer q Co., Binghamton, N. Y. for .
sample bSttle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.

English Dandies Played for High

Almack's was one Of the famous old
gambling clubs of London. 1t was at
Its height in the latter part of the
Eighteenth century, and the play there
was enormous. 1t was not uncommon
for the losses in single night to
amount to upwards of 100000.
The young men, dandies all, who in
tended to play set about the matter
with a great deal Of ceremony. They
wore straw hats with wide brims.

Intended to keep the light from their
eyes, and that the spectators might
not see their emotions they often wore
masks. They also often took off their
ruflies and silk or satin coats and wore
in their place rough great-coat or
else wound leather bands about their
arms to protect, the delicate lace and
hues of their coats from the soil of the
table.
At each players side was small
table that held their tea, wine cakes
and rolls of rouleaus or chips. Most
of the players wore long curls, eye
glasses mounted on long sticks. were
perfumed. powdered and painted like
court ladies, and some of them even
affected a mincing ladylike walk. But
those who made the error of thinking

ing highly concentrated and with no
waste. One needs to consume twice
as much beef, pound for pound, as
cheese in order to have the same food
value. Beef contains more iron than
cheese, but this can be supplied by
green vegetables. Cheese contains
more lime than meat and much less is
needed to make satisfying meal.

tiOns with cheese which will take the
place of meat and add an infinite va

grated or finely cut cheese, using as
much or little as the occasion or sup

fuls of a rich white sauce made of
two tablespoonfuls each of butter and
flour cooked together and one cupful
of rich milk added; salt and pepper to
