WHAT 1S A HOME CIRCLE? The Question answered by n Clinton Member. A Home Circle is a fricudlt society ;IP of which any man or woman ofsound health, character and morals, between the ages of eighteen and fifty may be- come a member. For charter mem- bers the initiation fee is $4, medical examination, $2. The main object of the society is to furnish cheap insur- ance upon the life of the members. lien can insure from $1,000 to $3,000; woolen up to $1,000. The 'calls' or assessments are made upon the death of a member thus: A. 13,, who is 25 years of age pays an assessment of 50 cents per $1,000', for which he is insured, while C. D. who is fifty at the same time will pay $1 for his share. This system, so graded ac- cording to age, afftlyds one of the most perfect systems of insurance •ever brought before the public. There is a small tax of 45 cents per member paid semi-annually for the Supreme Circle end there is a further tax of 50 cents per member quarterly, for local expenses. During last year there were 8 'calls' upon the members, and to give an idea of the cheapness of this method. we will mention the total expenses of M. N. -wbo was 50 years ot age at the time of joining the Circle and who is insured for $3,000. Eight calls at $3—$24. Capita tax 90 cents quarterly du 4C$ Ib ,ad thpn with perfect stirlty tt+li time comes hie -berm' be Usti dealt with. There is also a sick lbene- fit fund whereby those who wish to participate cap do so by .paying 15 cents quarterly extra, which is found sufficient in the past to pay $4 weekly to those who have become sick or dis- abled. This system is. intended to give perfect security to its members upon payment ot what i+ actually necessary and no more. This plan of insurance may he a surprise to many but the Home Circle is a living teal- ity'and in 5'years, from a nucleus cf 16 members, i+ now numbered in the thousand+. • When Baby was sick, we gave her Coterie, When she was a Child, she cried for Castoria, When she became Miss, she clang to Castorla, When she had Children, she gave them Castoi3' On Saturdu;; evening,Jlr Abra- ham Johnson, a prominent fa ran- er near Walkerton, was driving hone, accompanied by his mother, a venerable Indy, over SO years of age, when their horses became frightened at the tooting of n steam thresher and ran awny,np• Rottin g the buggy and throwing the occupants ont, 'rhe old lady received such injuries twit she died in a few, hours.

Tho water supply gave oat and the Mayor telephoned to Detroit, and in 20 minutes the American Brigade had a. steamer and cle- tachnieirt of men on Canadian soil assisting in adverting a threatened conflagration.

They should be locked up in,a•house of corre'e • tioakandskail to work. So much attention is being paid to fast runs on our railway$ that:the matter of long runs seems to have been overlooked by the public in search for information. The fact is that the New York Central operate. a train which makes a longer continuous run than does any train on any ILuro- peati reiltda'y: The 'Nees' 'leek & Chicago Limited' onthis road runs from New York to Albany, a distance of 142 milds, without mak ing a stop for- any purpose.

A Chicago gentleman of wealth and eccentricity; has four tine.' children, the eldest 10 years old, and he has named them One.Two,. Three and Four. His explanation of :this curious nomenclature is that he had so often seen the great dissatisfaction of children with names bestowed upon them that ho resolved to simply num- ber them until they wese 12,year•s old, and then let them select their own names.

I wept ,to:1iei rescue, and came near loiling my own life in . saving her. " I had swarth ashore with her and laid her on the beach, when a gentle- man came running' down from one of the cottages. Ile was the girl's father, and had missed hor: I told him how I had rescued her,• he asking my name and some=' thing about my condition in life. Ho took his daughter and myself to the cottage and placed $1,000 in my hands. We sailed the next day. Tho gentleman gave ale his name and New York resi- dcneo,but asked mo, to promise to never toll his name. I promised. He invite -dem -to call on him any time, as he would bo glad to Soo 'no.
