An amusing example of the Irish ■ man's pronunciation occurs in a story told of the late Dr. Todd, the Irish archa'oiogist, who, although a great tcholar, was not above perpetrating a i practical joke. The London Spectator tel Is the story and says:. A very learned Englishman went to Dublin to examine some manuscripts iu the library of Trinity college and was of course iutroduced to Dr. Todd, who one day iu conversation told him i that there was in Trinity college a cu rious instance of the survival of a habit t dating from the time of the Danes; that < at a certain hour of the afternoon I , think fl o'clock—a porter went the J round of the college ringing ti boll and calling out in a loud voice, “Thu Dane's - the hall,” when all the students rushed from their rooms torepel the in vaders. So tiie learned but somewhat incredulous Englishman repaired to the college at fl o’clock, and, sure enough, what Dr. Todd had told him came to pass, winch ho gravely related on his return to England.

Breaks The Dividend Record. 11, has always held the record securely, but the claim paid by the compa ny upon a policy issued to Mr. Mark Banks, of Connecticut, the particulars of which are given here, shows that THE MUTUAL LIFE has in this in stance eclipsed all previous dividend results: Mr. Banks was insured forss,ooo 00 The (liviilends amounted 12,028.00 I’aid to the estatesl7,o2B.oo How does this happen? Mr. Banks raid all the premiums in cash, and be did this for fifty-tour years. He did not utilize any portion of the divi dends in payment’of premiums, but permitted the Company to invest these for bis benefit. Here are the particulars: Policy No. 1,2311. Issued March 5, 1845. Amount $5,000. Age 40. Annual premium, $l6O. Life Plan. Original insurance in 1845, $5,000. Dividend additions paid in 1898,12,028.00 x $17,028,00 54 Premiums paid by insured 8,640.00 Realized to estate over premiums paid $8.388 00 Being nearly equal to a return of all the premiums paid with two and a halt (2|) per cent, compound interest per annum, with insurance increasing annually from $5,000 at age 40, to $17,0?s n t age 94. The dividend additions paid to the estate were 139 per cent, of all the premiums paid for the insurance. Mr. Mail: Banks was the treasurer and cashier of the Greenwich Savings Bank, and died at Hie good old age of ninety-four.

A Scheme to Give Every Man a Farm, by a Person Who is Land Poor. Mk. FDiTon: Some years ago I took an idea that land was the safest investment that a man could make in Georgia, and as a consequence, I am now land poor; have more than I can profitably make use of, and consequently want to get rid of some, or all of it, and I have decided to adopt the following measure to get rid of it: I will say, in the first place, that the land is the best in Monroe county, is fine ly watered, and is adapted to raising cat tle, sheep and hogs, and is the best for cotton, corn, wheat, oats and other grains in the county. There are a number of tenant houses on the place, and a home recently built that cost me over $3,000 to build. The land, in the first place, cost me from $25 down to $4 per acre-saying altogether,about $lO per acre, without improvements ; and to get rid of it, I will average the whole place at $lO per acre, in the following way : I will have the entire place, 1,600 acres, sub-divided into 50-acre lots, at $lO per acre, giving more than 50 acres to one party, if desired, and less than 50 to another, according to his ability to pay for it, as the case may be, the entire quantity to be drawn for. In other words, the number of lots and quantity of land to be put in a hat or box, and drawn out under approval of a com mittee of gentlemen, at some stated time, so that all shall have a fair chance to get a home at a low price, and no one has a chance of losing their m 'noy, or failing to get their value, as paid, and some get a farm at far less than cost. The land is 12 miles from Macon, a city of some 50,000 or 60,000 people, and is adapted to market gardening, and for northern people who know bow to work, it offers a fine’opportunity for a colony of energetic citizens. It is all together, and would make a fine settlement, having the best of pastures, water, springs, creeks, etc. The land is timbered with hickory, beach, oak and pine, and some cedar; in fact, it is the best place I know of, and I am satisfied the ed itor of the Call will vouch for what I say. I would be glad to have any parties who mean business, to go over the plantation, familiarize themselves with the advan tages, and communicate with me at Barnesville, before going into the matter, assuring them that I mean what I say. I have also a farm of 50 acres near Barnesville for sale, on good terms. In addition to the terms offered above, I have concluded to make the terms of pay ment in four annual payments without interest, which is tantamount to putting the price of the land very low. The titles to the land have been in the posses sion of one or two parties for years, and have never been questioned and are as good as gold. S. B.
