B. H. Roblson, president of the Bankers Ronrrre Life Association, the aggressive western company which has become so widely and favorably known, shook up the dry bonrs of the life Insurance world In his annual report. In Insurance circles the phenomenal figures contained In that re port have been the principal topic of dis cussion ever since they were made public. Friends are congratulating the company with great sincerity and foes are admitting that no other life Insurance company In the west has ever made so remarkable a record.

" I was almost stunned when the policeman rattled out the name, and was surprised to lesrn that it meant only porter with a puna cart, and that notwithstanding his title his chsrges were but 15 cents for the service. About sn hour Jater I wanted to go to see a machine factory and was told that the "Nederlandlscbe-voor-8cheeps-en- Werktuigbouw-'FIJencord' " was one of the largest, employing thousands of workmen; and when I asked If I could not see the American consul general the same day, my landlord informed me I could, for he lived on Van Vollenhovcnetratt, and I could drive there on my return from the factory. . In deed, I can't remember the simplest of these Dutch directions, and I find the language almost as difficult as the Choctaw or the Chinese. FRANK O. CARPENTER.
