The home is the worlds greatest

are attiibutes of any man who own a
plot of ground and builds a home on
it. Homes yield the highest interest
of any bank in the world. Besides be­
ing a paying investment in a finan­
cial way, a home creates greater
earing ability. The home owner is a
citizen of the community. He is in­
terested in seeing property values in­
crease. He is also a better workman.
Of course it is fine to have a ‘jitney’
to go fishing with, but it is finer to
have a home to sleep in and eat in.

when we consider that this produc­
tion of poison gas is not equally dls-
| tributed in either time or place, but
is largely massed into less than the
twenty four hours and into a cam-
paratively few of the most crowded
thoroughfares. The disasterous effect
of the poison fumes upon vegetation
has long been noticed along the prin­
cipal driveways of the parks. If the
gas has the effect upon trees and
shrubs, in the open, it must have a
far worse effect upon the much more
susceptible organs of human beings
on streets where vehicles are much
more numerous than in the parks,
and where tall buildings on both
sides cover the narrow streets into
veritable catch sinks for noxious
emanations. There is reason for be­
lieving that the air on such a street
—say Fifth Avenue or Broadway—
with a score of cars on every block
pouring forth carbon monoxide, is
sufficiently vitiated to induce in
those who frequent the deadly lesion
of nerves and heart. What the condi­
tions would be in a crowded vehicu­
lar tunnel under one of the great
rivers, it is appaling to contemplate.
The moral is not, of course, to
abandon the automobile, but to get
rid, in some way, of the poison gas.
The automobile, it is needless to say
is one of the indispensable products
of modern inventive genius, and will
continue increasingly to be used. It
may be chemically impossible to
avoid the evolution of carbon monox­
ide in combustion of gasoline. But it
surely should be possible for some
inventive genius to find a way of
neutralizing it, or of preventing its
free and crude emission into the air.
Methods were readily devised in the
War for the manufacturing poison
gasses and hurling them against the
enemy. It would be an intolerable re­
proach if in time of peace we could
not, with equal efficency, protect
ourselves against them when they i
are emitted as a by-product of an in­
dispensable mechanism of civiliza- '
tion.—Harvey’s Weekly.

PROVIDE AN INCOME FOR YOUR OLD AGE. HERE ARE A FEW PRINCIPAL
FEATURES OF A NEW POLICY ISSUED BY THE AETNA LIFE INSURANCE CO.
Life Income at Age 60 or at Age 65.
1. These two plans of insurance mature
similar to endowment insurance; one at age
60. the other at age 65. But both plans pro­
vide that at maturity you will receive $100
monthly for 100 months and as much longer
as you shall live, or under the former contract
you may receive $13,800 in cash, and under
the latter $12,130 in cash.
2. Under either contract if you die be­
fore maturity of the policy your beneficiary
will receive at least $10.000, and under pol­
icies which contain the Double Indemnity
clause this amount will be increased to at
least $20,000 if your death results from an
accident.
3. If the policy contains the new Aetna’s
Disability clause, and you become permanent­
ly and totaly disabled, no further payment of

premium will be required. If such disability
occurs before any payments have been made
by the Company you will receive ,100 per
month during your life time, and if you die
before maturity of the contract your benefi
ciary will receive 110,000; but if you are
living when your contract matures.
matures, be it
either one form or the other, the monthly
payments will be increased to $200; or you
may accept $13.800 under the former, or
$12,130 under the latter, and continue to re­
ceive the $100 per month during your life­
time on account of disability.
4. Either of these policies is written for
larger or smaller amounts than Illustrated
above. Fill the attached card and mall to-day,
