A Good Thing.
Frank G. King is again starring -
ring this season as Andy Markoe
in "A Homespun 'Heart. " Mr.
King knows a good thing when.
he sees it , and so does the public
and that "A Homespun Heart"
is a good thing , admits of no
question. Those who have seen
it , evince a desire to see it again
and never fail to do so , when an
opportunitr , is afforded them.
This play IS not only interesting
from a dramatic standpoint , but
on account of its moral aspects
as well. It abounds in wholesome
influences and teaches a salutar.y
life-lesson-nor is it devoid of the
comedy element. Andy's quaint
humor is irresistible \ and : on-
vulsing. Mr. King has taken
care to surround himself with a
capable company of actors , singers -
ers and dancers. The scenery is
beautiful and our theatre-g"oers
may rest assured of seeing sC ) lne-
thing unusually good at Broken
Bow Opera House on Jan. 14th.
Th , Miniater an Inlurance Agent.
A firm dealing in life insurance
sent out annual reports of the
conditions of tl e company they
represent to their customers and
one of the reports fell into the
hands of a certain minister who
holds down a pulpit not many
miles distant from Broken Bow ,
The followihg letter was wriUetJ
by him and sent to the insurance
agents :
"Gentlemen : Again I have
been honored in the .receipt oj
your insurance reports , Fee ]

over the omission of one of the
companies I am in and which I
represent , which , as you know1
handles both fire and life insur-
ance. My company offen

the worst possible risks , badly
constructed , with dangerous ex ,
posures and at a merely nomina1
rate. one of the companies in. .

We also insure lives even whet
