The Mikado's Advice to Boys. _ “ In view of the astounding progress of Japan it is interesting to recall ' the following moript which was is- ~ sued by the Emperor to the aneneso ‘ schools some fifteen yosre ago: "Be “filial to your parents and affectionate . is: your brothers; be loving friends; conduct yourselves with modesty and be benevolent to all. Develop your intellectual. faculties and perfect your- morai powers by gaining knowledge ' and acquiring s profession. Promote » public interests and advance public ~ moire. Ever respect the national ' constitution and obey the laws of the country. and, in case of necessity, f oourhgeousiy sacrifice yourselves to . the public good."

GROWTH OF INSURARB. in 1860. according to an estimate published by an official of the New York Life insurance company some time ago, all the American life insur- ance companies together bud on on overuse about 35 at risk for each person in the l’nited States. uys Chi- cago News. in 1901 the amellnt of risk per capita had grown to abollt $85, increasing seventeen fold in the forty-one years. if further evidence were required to show how rapidly this business has been growing it would be found in the enormous in— crease of cash assets among the lend- ing companies. which have grown out of all proportion to the increase of insurance at risk. "if no new insurance were writ- ten," said the authority above quot- ed. "if palsy should suddenly seize the tremendous activities of these companies. the contracts that are now outstanding and well estab» ilebed in the very nature of the t‘ase would bring in such sums of money that the companies would be com polled to become an active factor in the investment world." PROTECTING OUR BATTIIESHII'Is Of timely interest is the news from Washington that plans for the two new battleships of our nsvy pro- vide for a better and quicker method of flooding the magazines. A sprin- kling system is to be installed above the magazine, connected with the fire main of the vessel. so the ammu~ nition. in case of fire. can be drenched in a moment. Battleship disasters have been of alarming fre- quency in the last few years. and it is strange some such effective de- vice, tonding toward their preven- tion. has not been installed before. The enthusiastic sportsman who has been killing his guide. and his brother, and the farmers. has now become so filled with the spirit of the chase that he can't tell his wife from s wildcat. and so shoots her to death.
