The Brotherhood of
m
American Yoeman
. Orsanizer C. F. Bsttlett of
the Ilroiherhood of American Yoe
men, i organizing a lodge in Tiine
ville. This ie one of the strongest
fraternal order in the United
, State. It ie now in its 14ih year
.with a membership of 150,000. It
' has a reserve fund of f 1,300,614;
; total asset, 1,5Z8,828. It is a
. fraternal and social organisation
, and carries with it insurance bene
fits. It insures against accidents,
total disability, old age and death.
: Both men and women between the
age of 18 and 50 are eligible fo
membership and can participate in
, the insurance benefits. The in
rurance rates are based on a grail
' uated scale according to age.
This society operates on the ex
' pjctancy of life plan, which is the
only plan of fiaternal insurance
that will never have to change the
ntes, thereby insuring the manir
woman when they get old for the
same rate that they paid when
they were young.
The Homestead just organized
at Redmond with a charter list of
over 70 members id ' No. 3049,
which goes to show that the order
is a growing one ft the present
time. About an average of 60
Homesteads were organized a
month during the year 1910. Fifty
thousand applications were written
by the order.
Here are six valid reasons whv
you should be a Yoeman:
Its plan is superior to others
that is excellence.
Its members are protected by
over a million reserve that's
safety.
It will not accept sub-standard
risks that's independence.
Its 150,000 members pay their
dues that's business.
it nas never reiused to pay a
just claim that's proof.
It furnishes reliable protection
at lowest cost that'j what you
want.
Whether interested or not I
would like to meet you ai.d have
a talk with you. I have a propo
sition that appeals to people in
alt walks of life; one thai is gilt-
edge and ironclad. It is one that
is bard to find for such a low rate
of maintenance.
Fraternally yours,
C. F. Bautlett,

Captain Ovfton of tile sealer HonlcU
Hoy, crulslns In Hiring , iu In a
(juiimtary. Among liis crew were Pk'k
Turner, a southerner, uai Olnf Jacob
son, a Sweile. Tlies two men's dis
positions partook of the climates In
wlili'b lliey hud beeu reiired. Turuor '
leint; Bory. Jiteobson's pom-eTul. Tur
uer tmd taken a dislike to Jacobaou
and let no opportunity slip to Injure
or annoy him. I'ufortutiately for Ja
colison. Turuer was a stronj; man
thirty years old. wlillo the object of
his tlbllke was a youth of eighteen.
Turner could easily thrash Jaeobson.
ami. os for more serious weapona than
Bsts, the southerner was sutltcieutly
skilled either with the pistol or the foil
to poke a hole la the northerner with
out any risk whatever to himself.
Captuiu Croftou knew about the
trouble, and it caused bin) serious an
noyance. No commander likes to have
those uuder him tig tit ins anions them
selves. It diverts their attention from
their duties iutd Interferes with their
efficiency. The captain had remon
strated with Turner, directing him to
let the boy alone. Turner declared
that It was Jaeobson who was making
all the trouble.
Cue day when Turuer and Jaeobson
were sitting opiosite each other at the
mess table Turuer thrust bis legs over
on to Jacobsou's side. Jaeobson In a
mild voice asked biui to remove them.
Turner kept his legs where 'hey were,
giving Jaeobson a look as much as to
say. "What ar you going to do about
It?" Jaeobson raised his cowhlded
foot and brought his boot heel down
on Turner's instep. Both rose from
the table, but were not permitted by
their messmates to come together.
Turner sent one of the crew to Jacob
son with a challenge to fight In any
way he chose. Turner offering to sub
mit to any handicap to equalize differ
ences. This fracas having been reported to
the captain, he sent for Jaeobson to
come to his cabin.
"Do yon wish to fight Turuer?" ask
ed the commander.
"Yes. sir."
"Well. 1 vill permit the affair to
take place on one condition."
"What is that, sir?"
"1 to name the weapons."
"Do yon propose something barm
less, like feather dusters?"
"Not at alt I shall name weapons
to kill."
"Very well. sir. I will leave the terms
to you."
"Send a message to Turner that yon
will fight him tomorrow morning at
two bells and say that the weapons
will be provided."
Jaeobson left the captain without
further inquiry as to the nature of the
weapons with which he was to fight
and sent his acceptance of Turner's
challenge.
The news spread among the crew
that there was to be a meeting be
tween Turner and Jaeobson the neit
morning with the captain's sanction.
Great interest was manifested as to
the kind of weapons to be -used, bat
on this point there was no Information
forthcoming. The next morning at
two bells the combatants left the fore
castle and went on deck. They fennd
two sets of hose attached to the ship's
pumps with an Inch nozzle on each ly
ing on the deck twenty paces apart.
"Cap'n's orders is," said the quarter
master, "them's the weapons cold wa
ter for ammunition."
It may be supposed this meant that
the affair was to be turned into a joke.
The men who stood looking on knew
that such was not the case. Not a
man there but would rather have
faced a jsword or a pistol than ice wa
ter in a temperature of 20 degrees be
low sero. Turner looked at the weap
ons and shuddered. Jaeobson looked
at them and took heart. He saw at
once that tbe captain bad given him a
great advantage. A northerner, he was
used to the cold and could at least
stand such a bath better than his an
tagonist lie picked up his nozzle and
stood ready for the fray. Turner took
up his with evident reluctance. Then
the word was given, the principals
turned tbe spigot, and the battle was
on.
Jaeobson received the first Impact
of the water without any apparent
shrinking. At home in Sweden he had
been accustomed to go in the morning
to a river flowing near his home, break
the Ice and take his dip. Turner, on
the contrary, winced. He had been
used to bathing when nt home in water
between "0 and 80 d jriees. Neverthe
less he was in for ii mid summoned
all his resolution to cii'Jnrc the cold.
There were uo rounds, iis in a pugil
istic contest. It was understood that
each man was to stand up and receive
his cold bath till he was either frozen
or surrendered. Turner knew that If
beaten he would be a cowed man; Ja
Mbson understood that if he could put
his enemy out of the light he would
conquer a peace. Hoth were good
pluck. Turner's lips turned blue, and
hv was shivering; Jaeobson drew In
long breaths of oxygen uud stood
steady. In a few uilnutes Turner's
nozzle dropped from his hand. lie
stooped to pick it put. but Jaeobson
poured n stream In tils face, nnd he
couldn't see it. Presently lie got his
hands on It, but the fingers were be
numbed, and .Incolison soon knocked
It again out of his grasp, fie stood the
stream for a moment. ;lnu turned 111
hack to It and fled.
That was the end of lis persecution
of .Incolison.

There is one very interesting fact
connected with meteors that have
struck the earth. Hundreds of theu)
have been examined and found to con
taiu animal remains that Is, the very
lowest forms of life. This lndicutcs
that they are parts of a world that
burst Into fragments loug, long ago.
What a thought a world broken up
and scattered through space! Maybe
we had another uioou once, but tbat
broke Into pieces and these are the
pieces, and maybe they are parts of
the planet that once revolved between
Mars and Jupiter. Over 500 of tbe
larger pieces of this planet have been
discovered and catalogued. One of
these flew away Inside of Mars' orbit.
Why may not many of the smaller
pieces and these solid meteors be they?
It Is probably so. Columbus Journal.

One day the teacher asked her class
to write an essay on London, about
wbi-h they had just been reading.
When examining their papers later she
was surprised to read the following:
"The people of London are noted for
their stupidity."
"Where did you get that from?" ask
ed she of Maggie Jones.
"Please, miss, it's all fn the book.
It says 'the population of London Is
