Postponing tho Quarrel
A lady who lives in our neighbor
hood hired a small boy to do a little
piece of work for her. He got a
friend to help him. When the work
was finished she gave the first boy a
quarter the price agreed upon be
forehand. -Then a difficulty arose
about the division of thct quarter.
We overheard the conversation.
'Til match you for the odd cent,"
proposed the second boy.
"Aw, rats!" said tho first, who was
a sport. 'Til match you for the
whole quarter!"
"I ain't no gambler," protested the
other. "Let's buy a thrift stamp
with the quarter, an' start a partner
ship book."
And they did. . Cleveland ' Plain

Might Weaken tho Firm
Two brothers once ran a store in
a small western town, where they
had quite a large trade in wool on
barter. , One of the brothers became
converted at a revival and urged the
other to follow in his footsteps.
"You ought to join, Jake," said
the converted one. "You don't know
how helpful and comforting it is to
be a member of the church."
"I know, Bill," admitted Jake,
thoughtfully, "an' I would like to
join, but I don't see how I can,"
"Why not?" persisted tho first.
"What is to prevent you?"
"Well, it's just this way, Bill," de
clared Jake. "There has got to be
somebody in the firm to weigh this
here wool." Philadelphia Telegraph.

Military Indecision
A sergeant was. trying to drill a
lot of raw recruits, and after work
ing hard for three hours he thought
they seemed to be getting into some
sort of shape, so decided to test them.
"Right turn!" he cried. Then, be
fore they had ceased to move, came
another order, "Left turn!"
One hoodlum left the ranks and
started off toward the barracks-room.
"Here, you!" yelled the angry ser
geant. "Where are you going?"
"I've had enough, replied the re

Partnership Insurance'4
Business or partnership insurance is tho protec
tion of tho concern against the loss of the "very
factors which make the business a success;
namely, the brains, energy and good judgment
of its managing officers. Cases are numerous
w'here a flourishing company has been so crippled
by the ddath of one partner that it has taken
years to got the business back to a normal con
dition. .'- Itis not alone a questionjpf a deceased part
ner's -interest. His individuality might 'have
been, tho greatest jisset-r'the company had, and
yet not have been fully realized by his associ
ates until after his death. Ready money at tho
death of such a partner will lighten tho finan
cial burdens of the concern wonderfully.
