The Wingham Times, 1895-09-20, Page 7Sill Nye on Life Insurance, examined three years ago .at tailE" Aencral office of the Mutual Endowment Widows' and Orphans' Dream of Wealth Insurance Associa- tion in Now York, and quite a num- ber of extremely personal questions were asked by a handsomely dressed physician, who only partially con- cealed his scorn when he noticed that at the elbow of any red nledieat- cd flannels a September twilight on the French Broad Ritter had been w,orkcd with lemon -colored German- town wool. lie asked if pimples had ever shown themselves on my grandfather's side. I said no, which was true, although I 'was careful not to say that he had. a raising once at the base of the clavicle, I considered that fair, as 1 was there to answer questions, and not to volunteer in- formation. "Did hernia ever break out in your family, and ifso, how far back?" This was the next question, and coming as it slid from. a man whom I did not know from Adam's off ox, as the saying goes, I flushed up to the roots of my hair and told him that my grandfather, while trying to move a barn, had incurred hernia, but as to flow far back it was, I regarded that as nobody's business, and I would shrink from saying so, even to a well-dressed man in New York City. He also gavo me a little ausculta- tion to see if the swallows had been nestling in my bronchial tubes, as I understood him. "Are you a habitual drunkard, or have you ever been such ? " This question I answered in a guarded way, yet truthfully. Once I was invited to visit a neighbor about eleven years ago to try some doughnuts and eider made on the place. I now look back upon that even- ing with shame and sorrow. Little did I dream then that I would have to say anything about it in after years in order to get my life insured. The cider was made of Siberian crab apples, and. placed in a brandy cask, which was not thoroughly re- novated. Some two or three quarts of the brandy had been allowed to remain in it, and then the weather turned in to be cold, freezing the cider solid, leaving lathe centre a dose of dis- tilled spirits of a peculiarly restless and felonious nature. I remember driving home in the risp, frosty moonlight, but I did not unharness the horses until the follow- ing day. The following day a special provi- dence brought on a merciful snow storm which wiped out the tracks I Made on that memorable night. .The examining physician inquired If I had ever had delirium tremens or discharge of the ear. I have not, although I had a discharge from my employer twenty years ago, but it did not become chronic, and to -day I regard myself as perfectly recovered from it. I was asked age of grandparents, if living, and answered that if living inateral grandparents would be respectively 120 and 114 ; parternal grandparents 118 and 112. Now the company is trying to crawl out of the policy on the ground that my grandparents were not living at all. I did not pretend that they were living. . I said that if living they would be those ages. I hate a corporation that wants to back out after it has made a fair and square trade that way. Is it not disgraceful, after asking me all about my private affairs and personal Habits—things that I have never told anyone, not even my dearest friend on earth—that an in- surance company, claiming to stand with a large umbrella spread so as to keep off the storms of adversity from the helpless heads of widows and orphans, should seek to crawl out of so small a hole as that ? f) THE WIN GELAIVI TIMES, SEP" TM EE 20,1895. Presbytery of Huron, The Presbytery of Huron met in Willis church, Clinton, on Tuesday, the 10th inst,, the Rev. Dr, McDonald, of Seaforth, presiding.. It was decided to ask for the same grants as last year, in aid of all the supplemented congregations. A min- ute was adopted, expressing regret that the Rev. Mr. Moray had resign- ed the pastoral charge of Leeburn and Union Churches, satisfaction with his work daring bis pastorate, and hope that he might soon find another suitable field of labor. Arrangements for missionary meetings were left to the sessions of the various congregations. Ministers were also enjoined to have at least one Sabbath missionary service in their charges before the end , of the year. Mr. H, A. McPherson, theological student, at present assisting Dr. Mc- Donald, ,in Seaforth, read a. discourse, which was cordially sustained by the Presbytery, Mr. A.. Ii, McLeod, of Brucefield, asked to be recognized as a student for the ministry, and after the usual examination, bis request was granted. Wanted a Cheek on His Dqy..

He vas only a •leetle fellow and I was. cheek on hint to take him once more home again, When the clerk explained his powerlessness to grant tae man's request, pointing out that the proper proeedure was: to have bought a half ticket for the boy before ,starting, the applicant grew surly, "Fell," he said, •'I shust stay to home next time 1 takes mine little fellow to be robbed by the Cr. R. T. The clerk stated that he bad re- ceived notice from Mrs. Gavin Ross, of Hensall, that she intended to appeal to the Synod of Hamilton and London, from the decision ar- rived at in her case by the Presby- tery, at its last meeting. A commit- tee was appointed to confer with Mrs. Ross, who was present. From their report, after conference, it ap- peared that Mrs. Ross complained, not so much of the decision of Presby- tery, as of certain statements of the Moderator of Ilensall Session. The appeal was, therefore, withdrawn, and a new committee appointed to look further into. the case, and to bring about a settlement, ,if possible, said committee to report at the next regular meeting of Presbytery.

The faces of some of the listeners were perfect pictures as the preacher eloquently described the details and difficulties of the voyage. The ship ran against a bank, and in a thrill- ing' burst the preacher shouted, "What shall we do ?

The development of Farmers' Institutes and other means of education on successful practi- cal farming has proven beyond a doubt that the present day farmer requires to be a student of his work. The most successful ones are not, as a rule, those who do the greatest amount of manual labor, but they aro found ranking first as prize -winners on all agricultural products. James Rogers, a resident of Tilsonbiu'g, Oxford Co., Ont., for 45 years, has taken numerous first prizes during the year. A. successful. reliable intim, his statement will be of interest to many: "I have suffered for seven or Dight years with Itching Piles ; the torture and agony X cannot here find words to describe. Night after night was kept awake with the painful itching. I tried all the physicians and every known remedy all to no account, not even relief. In talking over my curious trouble with Mr. Chas. Thomson, our well known druggist, he recom- mended Chase's Ointment. To my wonder and surprise. I got relief from the second applica- tion. I firmly believe olio box sufficient to cure any case of Itching Piles no matter of how long duration. I would not bo without it for ton times its cost. In volunteering this testi- mony and my consent for the manufacturers of Chase's Ointment to use it as they wish, it is that like suftorersmayknow they can be cured." , Price GO cents, sold by all dealers.
