statement of the company for January Isl.
1878, previous to if; filing with the insurance
departments of the rcvrnl states where
they do business, and the exhibit made is
commendable to the management of the
company.
A material increase in both gross assets

000 in government bonds, and $13,000 in

bonds and securities, all income producing.
nod 51 lccted by ucloselyscrutiuizing finance
committee, with view to absolute serum)-
and immediate hvutlibility in case of sud-
dvn demand.
The company could wmmond $100,000
in cash on twenty hours notice. and the bull
crrs claim flu t tl1c1r busimss is so vrcll dis~
tirbulcd and munugni that no large fire (of
less magnitude tho! that of Chicago or Bos-
ton) could make such a dvmoud necessary.
Even in the great Boston fire they lou. but
75,000.
The Fairfir-ld has peid in dividends since
orgauimtiou $128,000. and has cashed loss
claims to amount of $592,000. It has never
failed sine: the Boston fire to pay its regular
10 per ccut. per uuuum to stockholders.
The rcceipts of the company for 18'77.
were $150,700, and its expenditures $130,200
including dividends, thusc a profit of about
$20,000 vvus made over and above the divi~
dcuds.
All this is very gratifying and shows what
clear headed management can do even in
hard times, when failures and depreciation
abound. and with the average of luck which
insurance companies have to contend with.
The officers and directors are satisfied
with the yeur's results. and particularly
now when rfl‘rrts seem to be strongly
made to prove that small companies cannot
be made to pay, and security in lusurauc is
more likely found in larger companies. We
are of the opinion thrt careful. lutcllieeut
and successful management a-flords the only
true basis of security in booking or lusur~
once corporations, and we think that the
Folrfleld Insurance Company in its six
your: record in seventeen states of the

Early on Wodureduy evening ladies and

stage in full uniform a few minutes past
eight. o‘clock, and began the concert which

very fine manner, and greatly to the delight

the music fine, and he succeeded admirably,
and won for himself and his fine musical
organization the admiration of all who per

Springtime. he began, is a season of pro
paration. The former at this time, having
waited until the winter‘s suuvvslmve melted,
prepares the soil for the reception of the
seed. Blossoms appear in the springtime,
and are much prized by everyone: prized
not alone for their flowery beauty, but for
what they represent. They remind us of the
summer‘s fruit, ripening under the gentle
influences of the suu~beruus. Youth is the
springtime of life—u season of preparation,
a susou of blossoms. But oh ! bow oft the
cold winds of temptutiou and vice brush
against the blossoms of youth. and blight
them in their budding. And one of
the saddest things in life is to sec promising
youth blasted. Youth is a time for plan-
uiug—u time for building' castles in the air,
very few of which, however. are over real:
iced. Youth is also a time when study of
all kind commoners. It is hlso a time for
enjoyment. The feelings are fresh, sorrow
and cure hold no place in the youthful
breast, and the reactionary power is great.
Youth is apt to look simply at things which
plcvso. But there is s uuctbing more than
enjoyment in lifc.—but. there is a vast dif~
ference between what we ought. to do, and
what. we do. Youth is a port out. of which
we sail, and experience is the winds which
ruflle the surface of the seat and toss our
bark about. Youth ia a time of strong im—
pulses. not reason; ihoughllessuoas, not care

used to represent Youth. Thoughtlessuecs
leads to indifference, and life to youth

world is very beautiful to them. Sunny
meadows are on every hind, while the
