wardly. perhaps, yes, since your wife
Is a good housekeei'er, but how about
your own peraoual affairs? Your liw
yer has perhaps drawn your will for
you. and your personal accounts are
businesslike, but have you looked that
will over recently, and In the case of
your death la there aome one In your
household who la sufficiently familiar
with your account book to understand
your system?
Hare you tried to Imagine Just wbnt
condition would exist In your family
Immediately after your deatn. and
have you carefully provided Tor that
condition? These and a number ot
similar questions must he auswered
satisfactorily before you can say that
your bouse Is really In order.
The following ure o few practical
suggestions which, t.T you think them
over and act u|>on them, tuny be the
menus of saving you or your family
from aome seriously Inconvenient
plight or actual trouble and loss
first of all, make a point or keeping
your wife tor some member of your
household) familiar with your system
of iH-rsonui accounts
Is-t her know
where your safety deposit box Is,
where yon keep the key, where your
letter Hie relating to these business
matters Is kept and Just whut your
relation lo your business Is ? ou know
It Is quite possible that you will die
sometime.
Keep your lire Insurance policies In
your safety de|»oslt box. where they
will not tie burned with your house,
and keep In the same package with
them. |ilatis and sp e c ific a tio n s of your
house, so that the Hre Insurance com
panic- an know definitely Just how
much it would cost to replace It With
your furniture Insurance policy keep a
detailed Inventory of your household
effects, with statement of their xnlues.
It would be Impossible for you to do
this from memory after the goods have
been destroyed, and much needless
trouble would necessarily ensue with
out such a list. And do not rely wholly
upon your agent to renew your policies
as they expire. Keep a list of tho
dates of expiry In your nrcount book,
where you will see tbem frequently
Suppose yon should lie run over mid
killed today Have you looked Into the
law of your slate to ascertain whether
or not your safety box would be seal
ed. nnd If It would be senled are there
any documents In It which your family
would need before It were officially
opened by your executors In the pres
ence of a state officer? Your executors
may take n year to settle up your es
tate. How ntiout rendy money for the
use of your family?
When n man draws np his will It Is
seldom that he appreciates the fHct
that his ensb In bank and the Interest
accrued on his Investments up to the
date of his death become principal and
cannot lie used by tils family to pay
their current expenses following his
death.
An excellent way for a man to tie
sure that his fntnlly. upon Ills death,
will have ready money at once, free
from all eompllcatlons. Is to take out.
In addition to his regular Insnrnnee, n
polley for say $1,000 or $2.000 I d favor
of his wife or some member of his

The Recapture and Daatruetion of tha

Stephen Decutur, tho prldo of the
eurly American linvy, entered the sen

lowest ebb. lie was without training

were those tho naval officer today cun

From childhood Stephen loved the
sen. At nil early age he begun the
study of shipbuilding mnl nt seventeen

ato United States, which ho was one
day to command. The war with
France brought him tils first great op
portunlty. I>ecatur was lta most pic
turesque sen figure.
When, lu 1S0I, all the nnvy except
six ships was dismantled nud 75 |*‘r
eeut of the officers dismissed Iterator
was kept lu the service, nud he fouud
speedy use for the naval lore ho had
acquired.
For centuries the Bnrbary states had
supportisl themselves by piracy. Most
nations. Including our own, paid them
shameful tritmto to win piwfrvtion
from these pirate ships. In May, 1801.
tho pastm of Trlisdl declared war on
the United States and begun to seize
American vessels thut were cruising In

During this war the Lulled States

on n reef In Trl|>ol! harbor and was
captured by the pnslm. Decatur vol-
uuteerisl to go by night Into the harbor
and destroy the Philadelphia.
He seized a small native vessel called
a ketch from the Tripolitans nnd re-
named It the Intrepid. With seventy

Tho hour agreed on for Dccntur's ni
tack was 10 o'clock at night As the
Intrepid entered the harbor It appeared
to be only a native boat, and Utile nt

were hidden lieblnd her rails, cMm li

was Instructed to reply that they had
lost their anchor and wished to run o

This request was granted, and Deca

were discharged, ami their shots took
