Mit EDITOR: Some timo since, hearing a friend recito ono.of those beautiful little lyrics, which fix themselves iudellibly in tho momory and hoarts ot children, I requested him to givo mo a copy for tho uso ot my own little "olivo branches." A few days siuce ho handed mo Usc. enclosed, rem irking that tho times called for a "new version," adapted to tho peculiar preying propensities of a largo adult class of tho present duy, and that lie had endeavored to meet this want in thu parody enclosed. Please print them, as thoy aro calculated to do good, and woll desorvo to bo preserved, as contrasting tho spiritual toaohiugsof tho past with tho sordid proving OT tho present. ***** When daily I kneel down to pray. As I am taught to do, Qod does not caro what I may say, Utiles i I fuel it, too. Yet foolish thoughts my heart beguile, Whene'er I pray or Biug, And I am thinking all tho whilo About sumo other thing. Homo idle play, some foolish toy, Gan sen I my thoughts abroad, While it should bo my highest joy To love and servo tho Lord. Thon let mo novcr, never daro, Tn sot thu trifler's part, Nor think that God will hoed a prayer, That comes not from my. heart. Whon daily wo sot out to prey On what wo find in view, What do wo caro what others say, If spells como with it, too. Though some may think us tree from guilo, Wheu wo abuso the ring, Still wo are thinking all tho whilo About sumo sharper thing Some coupon bonds-some railroad stock Of city Jobs a few; Should these in court get in a lock, We'll start np something new. When etutionory goes the rounds, Let each mau take a ream, Assured no credit will bo found For those who bouest seem. Then lot us over, ever spring Boldly upon our prey, And kuow, thieves coverod by tho ring, Are,not caught in a day. ? ? ? f-'?

When lifo inaut ance com pat ies were lirrd organized; reliability of tbs data upon which pro mititns were constructed had not undergone tent of experience lt was thought, therefore, no more than common prudence to adopt a renie of pn mintos which would, in any event, meet all the presumed and unloteseeu conting.nri,a or the busilicen.
