Women who are -riving greater Im- ! portnnce to woman's sphere are dls- ( eenilnfr readers of fiction, says the j New York Evening Tost. This la the ; conclusion drawn by James Hay. Jr., ' after careful observation, and It would probably meet with some skepticism j on the part of people who think that fiction serves mainly to amuse. He writes In a recent publication that he ; long afto discovered that certain men j and women " "appreciate new view points, had the knack of defending j with facts and plays of fancy their own opinions, had their favorite snorts flowers and colors, and pleased you j with their eagerness to hear of any new thing touching their recreation or j work and that such men and women hnd In large measure developed their j own striking personalities through In- ' timate Intercourse with the unusual characters whom great writers had j found to he worth writing about. These people, by reading fiction, had put their hands on the motives of men, while others depended for their knowl edge of life and of men and women on their own experience and remained "alien to the world's great dreamers." Three of Life's Problems Solved You believe In Ufa Insurance of course. If you atop to a nail. this belief you find ao many reasons (or It that they crowd over one another seeking utterance, -The United States Uuvernmniil placed the stamp ot lla approval on the principle of legal reserve Ufa Insurance when Congress passed tha Soldiers and Sailors War Rlek Insurance Act. The great maaa of the people have been placing their stamp of approval on thla great principle (or nearly a hundred year. When tha great Influ ents epidemic took III toll of half a million lives, American Life Insurance through private compan ies and the Government, contributed over a quarter of a billion dollars In the seltlement of death claims for this one causa alone. American legal reserve lite insurance companies have paid to policy holders and their beneficiaries and now hold for their uae and benefit mora money than they have ever collected In premiums. Truly, Ufa Insurance is tba uioae beueflcleut scheme of finance that tit human mind hat evolved. When you buy Ufa Insurance you should seek to provide agalnat two contingencies, one of which it bound to occur. These contingencies are Death and Old Age. Under the terms ot most policies that make adequate provision for the secoud coulluguency Old Age It la necessary to make comparatively large premium deposits In order to accumulate a fund that will be available when old age cornea on. It the flrat conllugeucy Death occurs during the earlier yeara, however, the fund to created It u nnecessary and the Insured would have saved money by buying a cheaper form of Insurance. West Coast Service seeks to meet all contingencies of life, and In thla partlculur the Company hat evolved a policy that offera an Ideal solution to the difficulty, la lit I. T. 1. policy It provides against the eoutlngency ot both death and old age. In the event ot the death ot the Insured during the producing period ot hit life, the fund that hat been thua far accumulated to provide for old age independence la used to provide or more life Insurance Instead, to that the dependents ot the In sured are in the same position from an Insurance standpoint aa though be had purchased the cheap est form of Insurance. If the Insured Uvea and makes the twenty annual payments which the I. T, I. pulley contem plates, be can then either take hit old age fund In cash or use It to purchase paid-up Insurance for an amount In exceaa ot the original face of the policy. He can borrow agalntt the paid-up pulley or surrender it tor itt full cash value at any time. It It always available. There it a third contingency not heretofore mentioned, but Juat at vitally Important aa the other two the contingency ot Total and Permanent Disability. It man Uvea aud keeps hit health or duet not tuffer an accident that permlnently Incapacitates him, he can continue hit Insurance In force at easily at be can discharge any other of life's obligations, llut If he becomes totally an 4 perman ently disabled, he coaaet to be a producer and bt comes, lusteud, a burden on the community unless be bat an Independent Income. West Coast Service steps Into this contingency and provides the tndlpendeut income with the 1. T. I. Policy, In addition, tt walvea any further premium deposits, but the value ot the policy continues to Increase in the same way aa though such premium deposits had been regularly made. The I. T. I. policy it the Ideal form of Insurance service. It has 100 per cent value In every pro vision.

The following Is given in the Bos ton Globe as means of foretelling the weather: "A gray, lowering sunset, or one where the sky Is green or yel lowish green. Indicates rain. A red sunrise, with clouds lowering later in the morning, also Indicates rain. A halo occurring after fine weather In- j dicates a storm. A corona growing i smaller Indicates rain ; growing larger, fair weather. A morning rainbow Is ; regarded as a sign of rain; an eve- ning rainbow of fair weather. A deep blue color of the sky, even when seen j through clouds, Indicates fair weath- j er; a growing whiteness, an approach- . lng storm. Fogs Indicate settled weather. A morning fog usually i breaks away before noon. Unusual j clearness of the atmosphere, unusual brightness or twinkling of the stars, , Indicate rain.

Robins prefer trees not too heavily foliaged. like an apple tree. At times the robin will build her nest In a gateway or beneath the eaves of a house where there Is a solid founda tion. But as a general proposition it Is In a tree of fairly good size. It Is built of straw and grass and string and mud and is solid and heavy. A robin's nest may be exposed to the weather for five or six years and not go to pieces, but It Is never used but once. A few birds use a second-hand nest, but when they do so they clean It out and patch It up with new ma terial. The oriole uses one nest year after year, but always Improves It by,; putting In new material and seeing to it that it is tied with stout strings to the limb from which it Is suspended. Exchange. ! Is a Hatbox a Passenger? Papa's Spanish blood was fired he cause the Kngllsh woman was sleep ing in the diminutive railway compart ment. First he tossed a lighted match near the head of the sleeping woman, then he demanded that she sit up so , that his daughters and their hatboxes : could be properly accommodated. Ar thur Stanley Riggs, who describes this adventure in "(iolng to Leon" In Travel magazine, was growing more and more indignant, and Indicated that batlioxes do not belong in seats. Then. papa became a miniature Vesu vius In full eruption. He turned to his pretty daughter, with nn eye full of choler, aud cried : "Sit on her then I Sit on her, my daughter!"
