    Susan J. Crane, of Hartford, Conn.,
wos made the recipient or-some oi
the stock of the Globe National bank
through a will. The bank failed, tbe
stock was assessed 100 per cent and
she had to put up the full amount, al
though she had never had the stock
really in her possession. That was
the decision of the court.
Upon the retirement of Major Gen
eral Wade, April 14, 1907, Major Gen
eral Wood, M. D will become the
ranking officer of the United States
army, and will continue, if he lives,
to command the army until October 9,
1924, when he will retire. That is the
reward that this great nation gives
to a doctor for serving with the pres
ident for a few months in a regiment
called "The Rough Riders." Is there
any wonder that some of the oici
army officers think that the reward 13
out of all proportion to the service
rendered? Army officers, make no re
marks for publication upon this sub
ject, but now that the thing is done
some of the republican newspapers
are making some mild comments on
the subject,

The admiral appointed to succeed
Markaroff in command of the Rus

St. Petersburg last week and was giv

ovations have been given to men who
are "starting" to war, and great
prophecies are made about what they
are going to do. No such scenes have
been reported from Japan.

book. . . .i
Judge Grosscup of Chicago delivered
an address in Chicago last Monday in
which he declared that there was urg
ent need of a new party that would
control the great corporations, lie
made the positive declaration, so of
ten made in the past by populisms,
that the increase in wealth was not
what the plutocrats claim, and said:
"The per capita wealth of the coun
try has increased only 10 . per cent
nvpr what it was 30 vears ago." If
Judge Grosscup will make a study of
populism he will find tne very pany
already in existence that he is call
ing for.
Tha' form of Admiral Togo's report
to the emperor of Japan is causing
many remarks in the daily press, tie
attrihntes his success to .'his ma
jesty's glorious virtue" and "heaven
ly assistance." That is an equat ui
vision between thex royal forms of
Europe where the ships are "his ma
jesty's" and the devout Christians or
the republics of the world who believe
that God directs the slaughtering oi
mpn that. nrrnrR in ereat battles. The
only thing about the report that com
mends the admiration of all, is that
thA admiral makes no claims for him

ance Company of Nebraska has been
considering for some time how; it
might be possible for a man to make
provision for protection for his fam
ily in case of bis death," and at the
same time insure him an income, or
reasonable Interest on his savings or
?nvestment for that purpose, during
his "life. The result has been the in
troduction by the Company of an en
tirely new policy. All companies write
policies paying dividenus every year,
but the amount of these dividends can
not be guaranteed or foretold and are
generally disappointing. The Old
Line Bankers Life in its Three Fcr
Cent Guaranteed Income Bond, gives
yor. an absolute Guarantee of Three
Per Cent on every dollar paid in dur
ing the life of the policy. Each year
your income increases as the prem
iums are paid beginning with the first
premium and continuing to the ma
turity of the contract in twenty years.
The nossession of such a Bond is
the gratifying result of industry and
economy combined with a decision 10
do it today. You would never have
owned one if you had continued to
postpone its purchase.
Sn noose the government of the
United States- were selling these bonds
on long time suppose you could buy
one of $1,000 on twenty yearly pay
ments, receiving back each year three
per cent on all installments paid in..
SimDose in addition the government
would say, "If you die before all pay
ments are made we will cancel tne
balance and pay your family the face
of the bond, $1,000 in cash." Would
vou want it? Would you put away
one dollar a week more or less to
get it?
Well, vou can buy a guaranteed in
come bond of The Old Line Bankers
Life Insurance Company with just
these provisions. You can cut on a
three ner cent coupon every year
vou can. have the bond if you live
twenty years drawing dividenus aur-
ing the remainder of your life, ine
deferred payments will be cancelled it
vou die and your wif3 and children
will set the face of the bond in casn.
-
It is said , that "Money is always
handy in the family." Can you im
agine any handier or more opportune
time than when the head of tne tarn
ily dies. On his bond are coupons
numbered from one to twenty. Num
ber: one is three' per cent on one
Dremium, number twenty is three per
cent on twenty premiums. To secure
the, income it is only necessary to
cut off the coupon at the end of the
year, sign your name and mail it in to
the company. A check will be sent
vou immediately for the amount or it
can be used in payment or tne next
vears' premium. On a c-ond ot ?5,uw
at the age of thirty-five the income
returned to the , policy-holder will
amount in twenty years to fl,60S.50,
and is subject at maturity to the fol
lowing options 1 of settlement.
This bond is non-forieitable after
two vears. Should it become neces

have:

It is secure as a government bond and
better as it costs less money and
gives a larger return living or dead.
The advantages of the bond may be
summed up as follows:
Three per cent on your money while
you live . .
Face of your policy if you die
Your money returned if you ma
