Hen Paying for Homes Should
Have Protection for Their Wives
J. H, Wilson and J, W. Brown lived in the same little city.
The first was a druggist and the second a grocer. Both borrowed
money at times to carry on their business, but they borrowed from
different banks. Both wore heads of families, and at about the
samo age both bought houses in a good part of the town. To buy
tho housea each had to borrow money from the bank. Wilson got
$4,000 and Brown borrowed $4,500.
At tho First Savings Bank where Wilson got his $4,000, old
man Nelson, tho Cashior, asked if Wilson had life insurance as a
part of tho so'curity. Said Nelson:
"I know tho property you're buying and it's good for more
than $4,000. But If you should die before this debt is paid I
surely wouldn't relfsh tho job of turning your family out to satisfy
the bank's claim against your estate. Assign to the bank a life in
surant policy for $4,000 as additional collateral and I won't
worry." Wilson did this, taking out a fresh policy for the amount.
At the City Savings Bank, Brown was required only to mort
gage the houso ho bought to secure his debt to the bank.
That happened in the spring. In the course of the following
wlntor both Wilson and Brown fell victims of typhoid there was
an epidemic in tho city. Two widows were left with two houses
and two businesses. Tho business realized little. Neither widow
was likely to pay off tho mortgage on the home. As a matter of
fact, tho First Savings collected the insurance and 'destroyed the
mortgage in Mrs. Wilson's presence. Also as a matter of history
Mrs. Brown's homo had to bo sold to satisfy the claim of the City
Savings Bank a perfectly just claim, tho sort that must be settled
if a bank is to remain solvent. But in one case the bank had
wisely forestalled disaster and avoided' hard words for itself.
When tho other bank sold Mrs. Brown's home there were, figura
tively, groans and hisses echoing all over tho city.
For banker and borrower, too, the moral is plain enough. In
certain aspects, life insurance is one of the best investments that
can bo made.

Haven't much room for anything
else,
Lar. Rvnrvthine: so a' while:
Couldn't hold more if I tried than
this
Beginning of dreams to smile.
Rise up these mornings and find at
my door
A beaker of springtime dawn,
And a sandpiper tangoes away down
the shore,
And a robin struts over the lawn.
Haven't much room when I've taken
them in,
And then on my way to town
Swallowed the beauty that walls off
the din
Of the city's gray temple

Sunrise and twinkle of dew,
System's chock-full for the rest of

And I've got a big appetite, too.
Haven't much room to hold more

To my frugal bare table of grace
Of bright sky, and morning, and
flutter of wings,
And a wonderful change taking
place;
That old transformation that still is
so young
And fresh and important and wise,
When the gates of the valleys wide
open are swung
And spring wanders down from
the skies. Baltimore Sun.

counter, "you told me these eggs

my wife cracked open was old enough

"Ye must be mistaken, Mr. Bright,"

"That's strange," thoughtfully re

Not Up On History
Col. "Nod" Osborne, of New Haven
and Yale, rarely fails to express him
self vigorously and picturesquely,
which is one reason, perhaps, why
he is in such demand at banquets.
Recently, at the Graduates' club in
New Haven, one of the younger mem
bers met him with:
"Nod, I am trying to find out what
Shay's rebellion was, and as a com
mentary on the value of a college
education, l would inform you that L
have asked five distinguished grad
uates of Yale one of them a famous
authority on English what Shay's
reDeinon was, and not one of them
knows anything about it. Now, what
do you know about it?"
"Well," said Col. Osborne, slowly
"I have a slight advantage of the
other five graduates that you have
interrogated. I not only don't know
anything about Shay's rebellion, but
I dou't care a continental about it."
