Tho iinpiiriiig glance, did tho business. "When wo met tho other night," said tho other, shoving his hands deep in tho inx:kt-ts of his ul.stcr, "I was togged up, but it wouldu't suit me to wear such clothing in my business. I don't wish to upjx-ar prosperous before the jteoplo I mostly do business with. It might injure trade and thou again it might not. I'm not disposed, however, to tuko auy chances." AT FIVE CENTS A WEEK. "Might I ask your lino of business" "I am a collector and agent for one of tho large lifo insurance companies," and he chuckled ver3r softly. The writer could not see how shabby clothes could help an insurance agent along and said so. "Tlio great majority of the peoplo with whom I do business arc quite ioor and it would not pay to appear too prosperous; not that I do tho poverty act in endeavoring to iucrea.se my business. I am connected with what is called tho industrial branch of our company. That is, we issue policies as low as 5 cents per week. You would like to know, eh, how money can bo made on so small a margin where tho expense of running tho machinery of so largo a business must necessarily be great.' If tho people were to koep up their payments in the long run tho company would lose heavily. Now that's exactly where profit comes in. Say, for in stance, a child of 2 years is insured at the rate of 10 cents per week and lives. You can safely wager that the ioliey will bo allowed1 to lapse beforo the young one i.s 7." 'Even so, I can't see how a man can mako a living climbing tho stairs of a tenement here, there and everywhere, sometimes to find tho iarties out, just to collect a nickle or a dime" "My boy," remarked tho agent, with a broad smile, "it is nothing when you get used to it. I should say there aro about .000 Icrsons employed in this business right hero ia Brooklyn, tho largo majority of whom make a fair living. I cleared over 52.000 last year and havo that sum made this. You can judge of the magnitude this industrial insurance business has grown to whea I as sure you that our company employs 170 agents and collectors in this city alone. I should judge about three times as many are engaged over in New York. As to what I make o:i collecting, that would barely sup port me. I have Iteen ten j-ears at this occu lta! ioa and have made by collecting about ?r ier week on an average. TAKES NO NEW r.ISTtS. "I never canvass for new risks. I find it unnecessary. I am given tho ease of Mrs. John Doe, who has herself, husband and ihroo children insured at the rate of 5 cents a week. I go there and collect 'Si cents weekly. Tho chances aro large that before I havo made fivo visits Mrs. Doe has for me tho pleasing intelligence that her sister, J.Irs, itichurd Roe, wishes to have her family in sured o:i the weekly plan. I m-ako a note of Mrs. Hoe's address and call UT'oa her. Sho insures her family on an aggregate payment i f 50 cents weekly. I collect the first pay ment and the office pays me S3 ten for one for securing the new risks. If the amount of the payments were to be la it 10 cents, then I sLould receive but Sk For collecting i re ceive 15 per cent., which, 1 think, is about tho rate paid by tho other liffj insurance com panies engaged in this busim-ss." "Now suppose, after mating two or threo jmymcuts, Mrs. Roo should discontinue; would j'ou be required to return to the com pany tho premium paid you" "Yes, I would havo to make it good; but an old agent like myself could t ako lii3 own time about it. There is very lit tie chance of a person lapsing before paying what the agent's commission amounted to aud more. Do I have much traveling to do? Well, yes. I havo two wards to collect in and have 1,001 names on my book. Itlcn'tmtan to say that I have to visit 1,001 di 9"crent par ties. It is almost universally the case that where one member of the family takes out a policy the others do likewise. I have, how ever, called at over sixty different residences i:i one day. The rates paid vary according to age, as you can easily understand. It is seldom a person insures and pays as high as 50 cents a week. Say a young man of CI years paid that amount and diet! at the end of a year; his heirs would receive S9LK). If a person dies by suicido crcardtal punish ment the amount of policy will not be paid. When a person is insured thai in case of death $'M0 or over has to be paid, then they are examined by one of the doctors em ployed by tbo.insurance company. For less amounts we take chances in nearly every case." Brooklyn Eagle. An Object Lesson in Politeness. Judge Lorin C. Collins taught tho proprie tor of a high toned Clark street restaurant a wholesome lesson in common politeness the other day. The judge, after lunching, stepped to the desk to pay his check. The proprietor himself happened to be behind the desk. The judge who, by tho way, was unknown to the restaurauteur laid down a S3 gold piece. The restaurauteur took it up, looked at it as if he suspected it to be bogus, dropped it twice on tho desk to make it ring, and then handed out tho change, which con sisted of threo silver dollars and somo little stuff. The judge, without a word or a change of expression, took up the three silver dollars pno at a time, looked at them care fully on one side, then on the other, and rang each of them on the desk heavily. Then, as if he were quite satisfied of their genuineness, he dropped thcra into hi3 pocket and walked out, remarking as he opened the door: "He might have examined it some where besides under my very nose.r Chi cago News.

Fort Sumter was near, black and frov. ning, and Charleston in the tlistanc", v. iilt its dim lights, mat le us long to ho ashore. When the hour grew late I gave instructions to l he ollieers on deck ami went below. We were anchored, but had everything ready to get under way in a few minutes' time. No blockade runners were expected that niglir, but tjiey were liable to como nt any time, hence my constant precaution. I was taihiug to my clerk, Charles O. Muzzey, of Boston, when I heard the alarm gong sounding on deck. 'Ihe gong, instead of a bell or a can non report, was our signal to prepare for action at night. I seized my double barreled gun and rushed on deck, my clerk following me. My idea was to shoot tho man at the wheel on the blockade runner while it was passing. One of the officers sung out: "Ji; is a torpedo boat !" But I did not hear him, and still thinking a blockade runner was going by, I looked around. Then the ollicer in loud tones sung out again: "Torpedo boat;" DESTRUCTION' AWAITED.
