There is a discrepancy' o? about ? *25 names between the hooks of the I Auditor and the ciiy recorder, the i former having the nv>st.

A great deal of inquiry has been made as to what salary the dispen ser wi'l receive. According to the tenth section of the Act, "the coun ty dispenser and his associates shall receive compensation as the Stale Hoard of Control may de termine." We have learned that it is authoritatively settled that Mr Dixon will receive *100. per month and will be allowed a clerk, whose salary will also be paid. Mr Dixon will keep a line of groceries also, in connection with the dispensary. | SUNDAY SCHOOL SXOUSSIOS ; Avail Yourself of the Opportuni ty to Go to Shelby.

At this age life insurant*-? recognized as a necessity. >'o much fur our enlightened civilization. Our people however, have become so used to the oM system of life insurance with it? h'gh rates and varied forms of pelicn-s that a departure fom those lines is considered m-re or less an innovation of aii experim?nt:il nature and as such is viewed with a degree of distrust. Such should in no wise l>c the case when v.e take i?:to consideration the facts gov erning the mat; or. Lite Insurance -As sociation ; are by no means an experi ment. Thcv embody the very essence of life insurance in its ] urest and noblest *fonn, and have i.oen long, tried and found without flr.y or n!emi.?hr"v-ri',?m same law that governs human progress in every direction applies equally to li'e insur ance.

The same rapid stridi ? have obtained in !<?': system of life insurance. X o w wo have reliable .Ma;istie&.e>'mpiled fiom sworn reports of the Insurance Departments shoeing the average d?nh-rate for over thirty years to each $1000 insurance in force, whfch r. ibles on,, to <ivt.?rmiue precisely the cost of life insurance.

It is purely mutual and co operative, being managed and controlled by its members or their ^utlierized rep resentative s. Irs rates; are fixed (there being no as sessments1) and is considerably above the average cost of insurance, but this is to provide a reserve fund for the protec tion of members :n case of an excessive death rate in any particular year. The reserve fund is maintained at a safe limit and to guard against an excessive and unneccessary reserve fund, all policies alter runniniflif-n years commence to draw a dividend from this fund, whi -h is a part of the excess over the actual cost of insura <v being refunded. This divi de!; 1 continues annually until the fif teenth year when a lump dividend is de clared. which is the whole of the unap plied surplus accredited to the policy. Polit ics after tiie fifteenth year contiib ute nothing to the reserve fiifcd, they are only charged with the actual mortuarj' cost of carrving them. Thus one se cures insurance at its cost and instead of the premiums becoming heavier as he grows older, they become lighter. A policy iii the U nited Association .at age of 40, for $10,000 would cost but $162 a year. In any of the old system com panies it would cost -$3 '3; a saving of $131 in one year or $2,263 in fifteen years ! This is not counting the use of your mon ey in the meamhne nor the dividends you will have received from the United Life. Will a So-called tontine policy in any of the old system companies pay half as much ? As to the safety and reliability of the 'United IJte Insurance Association we challenge comparison with any of the old system companies, either as to the ratio of unencumbered assets cr conservative ; nefs of m \na_'einent. A yearly payment of $04.36 is required by any of the old system companies at age SO to secure $2,000 insurance. $94.30 paid yearly in the United Life Insurance Association at asre 50 vvill carry a $4,500 policy. Econo my, twice the amount of insurance for the same money, or the same amount of insurance for half the money. That is how the United Life compares with the old system insurance. E. M.
