At the second rehearsal the Can- non boy acted his part with great en- thusiasm and actually kissed the rescued damsel as though he were a real play actor. Everybody was a little shocked, but the girl across the street caught the spirit of the thing and co-operated heartily in making the scene a success.

Employers and employees each received mutual benefit. No man should belong to the alliance who does not give his best and most loyal support to his employer and to his position. The purpose is to have men so perfect in their work, so efficient in their or- ganization, and so loyal to their po- sition, that the labor could not be obtained outside the international al- liance. Mr. Shay thanked the mayor and other people who had welcomed the visitors to Kingston, and assured one and all that the privileges small of an annuity of from $50 or at any future uarterly instal. dress was also given by.

This Van Loon person has fame end a bank account and acquaintance with the great, but he is perhaps the fin- est living example of whimsical am- lability. More, he has an uncanny knack of adapting himself to his au- dience. Among grave and learned folk he is grave and learned; among children he is a child; so that every- body takes him for granted and ac- cepts him as a member of the clan. Years ago he was a professor of history and decided to write a story of mankind for adults; big words multiplied about him, however, and annoyed him until he began again and addressed his history to child- ren, Then he labored for five years getting his material into storybook formy, and lo! the public stood walit- ing for it, purse in hand. He was in Burope during the war, and the Germans and Belgians took turns doubting his neutrality and ar- resting him. He isn't really neutral about anything, anyway; but he knows so much about everything that no mere war could shake his mental balance.

When Princess Mary attains the age of 50, whether her husband be living or not, she will receive an annual income thenceforth of $60,000.00 for the rest of her life. This is a remarkable endorsement of the value of Life Insurance and, more particu- larly, of the monthly income policy. Vis- count Lascelles, for all his wealth and high position, chooses to protect the future of his wife with a monthly income policy issued by an insurance company on this side of the Atlantic. What was wisdom on the part of the hus- band of Princess Mary, the royal daughter of England, is no less wise as an example to be followed by the husbands of Canada. The monthly income policy is the safestrand most satisfactory form of insurance for the protec» tion of wives and mothers of families.
