living in tho central portion of the city
gotoiT an Klin drove train at the Capitol

through tho squaro a fellow ran against
her and so stunnGtThor that alio fell. At

Ykstkuday tiie Catholic churches were
well attended, it being tho day when the b

solemnly celebrates the-presentation of p
Jesus in the Temple and therein the obedience
and humility of Mary and her Divine
Son, who, though not subject to the
law in regard to purification and presen- "
tation, vot subjected themselves to it ?
Hence tills feast is called the purification ?
of the Viligin Mary. Usually it is coiled c
Candlemas, because on this day the ,
candles required for tho divine services "
for tho whole year are blessed, which was J:
done in tho morning after first mass.

... the report* presented by the Mutual Life
110 Insurance Company of JJewYork. It it
? the lamest of all companies, has a large
ove body of policy holders, greater assets, and
;ary cach year receives ami disburses more
iant money than any other similar institution
Red in the world. How it obtained so firm a
ifnl hold upon pttblio confidence, and why it
do- retains that confidence, are questions easi|ion
!y answered. Itconihines liberality with
?<ly safety, and always keens Its pledges. It
iith never indulges in illegitimate methods to
? ? attract policy-holders. The report of The
?re- Mutual Life, published in another coiling
untn, for the year 18S4, shows that it lias
her $103,870,178 51 assets, a surplus of over
all $13,000,000, more than $330000,000 of in9"U
