4 PROVIDE INSURANCE FOR SOLDIERS AND SAILOR^ Fartlut nummary of Benefits Under Ij?w That is Already in Force. A division of military and naval insurance of the Bureau of War Risk Insurance has been organized as a part of the treasury department and Is in active operation. A number of policies on the lives of soldiers have already been issued, aggregating nearly $25,000,000 in insurance. The benefits of the law are available to all of the members of the United States army, navy and nurses' corps. A short summary of some of the main features of the law follows: Premiums for a $10,000 policy begin with *6.30 per month at ages 15, 16 and 17; Increase to $6.40 per month for the ages 18, 19 and 20; to $6 .50 per month for the ages 21, 22 and 23; to $6.40 per month for the ages of 24 and 25; to $6.70 per month for the ages of 26 and 27; to $6.80 per month for the age of 28 to $6.90 per month for the ages of 29 and 30; to $7 per month for the age of 31, with progressive increases for ages above those given. The minimum amount of insurance that may be taken out is $1,000. The compulsory allotment to a) wife or children, which is separate from the insurance, shall not be less than $15 a month, and shall not exceed one-half of a man's pay. A "voluntary allotment, subject to regulations. may be as large as the in?ured desires, within the limits of his pay. In addition, the government will pay monthly allowances as follows; Class A. In the case of a man to his wife (including a former wife divorced) and to his child or chil_ dren: (a) If there be a wife but no child, $15. (b) If there be a wife and one child. $25. (c) If there be a wife and two children. $32.50, with $5 per month additional for each additional child. (d) If there be no wife but one child. $5. (e) If there be no wife but two children. $12.50. (f) If there be no wife but three children. $20. (g) If there be no wire but four children, $30, with $5 per month additional for each additional child. Glass B. In the case of a man or woman, to a grandchild, a parent, brother, or sister: (a) If there be one parent, $10. (b) If there be two parents, *20. tc) For each grandchild, brother, sister, and additional parent. $5. In the case of a woman, to a child or children: Id) If there be one child, $5. (e) If there be two children, *12.50. .(ift If there be three children. - ?on T - ? (g) If there be four children. $30, with $5 per month additional for each additional child. If the man makes an allotment ro certain other donendent relatives Vhe government will also pay them an allowance which may equal the ^ allotment, but this shall not he more than the difference between 450 and the allowance paid to the vwife and children. The increased compensation in ^ case of death runs from a minimum of $20 monthly to a motherless child, or $25 monthly to a childless widow, to a maximum of $75 monthly to a widow and several children. The widowed mother may participate in the compensation. In case of total disability the monthly compensation runs from ? minimum of $30, if the injured man has neither wife nor child living, to a maximum of $75 if he has a wife and three or more children living, with $10 a month extra if he has a widowed mother dependent upon lm The maximum is enlarged still 'further, for when the disabled man constantly requires a nurse or attendant $20 monthly may he added, "Uf the disability is due to the loss of both feet, both hands, or total Tbllndness of both eyes, or If he is helpless or permanently bedridden. #100 monthly is granted. The law contemplates future legislation for re-education and vocational training for the disabled. It gives them full pay and their families the same allowance as for the last month of artual service during *he term or re-education. When the cheat feels on fire and the throat burns, you have indigestion, and you need HBRBTNE to get Tid of the disagreeable feeling. It drives out badly , digested food, strengthens the stomach and purines the bowels.
