For some unknown reason tho above request was not granted by the Chamber of Commerce. The resolution adopted by tho Chamber of Commerce in reference to the Fidelity Life Association of Ne braska Is misleading to the public, ns it indicates that this company is an old line comapny, when In fnct it has only qualified with tho State Insur ance Department as a purely Assess ment Comapny and is only legally authorized as such In this state, as the following letter, under date of October 22, 1915, and over the sig nature of tho State Insurance Com missioner will show.

Tho Submarine. There la little glorious about tho service of tho submnrlnc. She is the sneak of war's bloodthlrstlness, creep ing upon l.er victim like n murderer In the dark. For her thero Is no defiant battletlng, no glint of sun on wnve, no thrilling roar of battle. Sbo worms her slimy way through the murk to kill or bo killed In tho horridly practical business of slaughter. Her seamen toll amid mere machines. For the scent of burning powder she supplies tho reck of gasoline. Her crashing broadside Is but tho hacking cough of compress ed nlr. Ami her cud comes not with mastheaded ensign, but upside down, with her people tangled In tho gear. And this is the service which takes the strongest, tho bravest, tho dauntless. Thero can, bo no trepidation in tho spirit which guides tho submarine twisting through the depths, where, if she cannot be seen, she cannot see and where death lurks everywhere. Hartford Times.

A wealthy London dandy was noted for always wearing cosUy flower in his bjittuholq. Tien. ho lost all his money Wti.' in tjmo beenmo shabby, but still every day he wore a fresh nnd expensive bouquet. Curiosity prompted one of his old time friends to ferret, oilt the reason, nnd he uls covered that In the man's prosperous dnys ho found It "a bit of a fag" to pay for his flower every day, and so. In a very lavish mood, ho struck a bargain with tho florist that for a lump sum down and it was not a small one ho wns to be supplied with a fresh bou quet of his own choice every day for five years. The result was that. although sometimes lie had not enough ready cash for a crust of bread, ho was nlways able to claim his flower and to sport "a poppy or a Illy" as he walkod down the Strand.
