The lady obeyed instantly', lifting his cup to his lips, waiting on him most carefully ; them, at his en treaty, eating her own breakfast. "Now that you are satisfied and I gratified you, will you please grati• fy and satisfy zine?" she queried, pushing her chtair away from the table. Her son left his place and came to her sidc,...a deal, of mirth sparkling in his blue eyes. t'Mama" he pried, holding out to her his two hands, "this is all the reward the Irish woman gave her gallant res- cuer."

For example, an annuity of $100 payable at 60 may be secured for a bony who was 5 lest birthday for an annual payment of only $4,75, or loss than 10 ce•nte :t week, or for a tetai sum paid ie ue .261.25. In the event of tho death of the child before he was 60, all the money that had been paid in with'3es compound interest would be refunded to his heirs. 'When the boy arrived at an age when he was earning for himself, he could carry his own contract to coni• pietion ata rate far below what he could have obtained at his then age It is the custom of many parents to spend on their children at Christmas time amounts which at other times of the year they feel they could not afford, and too frequently are the purchases made of no lasting or permanent benefit Would it not be a better plan to start each child nn the roue to tee purchase of a (`ur.acliar) G,)vt•rn- ment Annuity, and continue the venturer of newapt or fame? But that is exactly what I claim to be.
