The doctor said that his eyes would stream with tears as he recited the following verses, describing bis own case and career. It is the most truthful and graphic pic ture of the kind that has been printed: A stands for Alcohol; death like its grip; B for Beginner, who takes just a sip; C for Companion wlio urges him on; D for the Demon of drmk that is born; E for Endeavor he makes to resist; E stands for Friends who so loudly insist; G for the Guilt that he after wards feels; H for the Horrors that hang at his heels; I his intentions to drink not at all; J stands for Jeering that fol lows his fall; K for his knowledge that he is a slave; L stands for Liquor his appe tite doth crave; M for convivial Meetings so gay; N stands for No he tried hard to say; O for the Orgies that then corne to pass; P stands for Pride that he drowns in his glass; Q for the Quarrels that nightly abound; R stands for Ruin that hovers around; S stands for Sights that his vision bedim; we; quote, viz: "not only are they exposed to fire without any possible means of extin guishing it, but there is not an insurance company that will insure their property with out exacting charges that are rall prohibitory in charac- ! er". The fac s arc that he basis rate for any given clas of property is the same throughout the town limits or suburbs, ml charges for exposures are likewise. For instance: an unexposed dwell ing would bear a rate ot 1 per cent whether located on Fifth street or on Water streef, as, theoretically, and from tbe standpoint of Ihe insurance companies, the fire protection is supposed to be equally effec tive throughout ih town, and the insurance companies will as readily accept risks in the back portions thereof as on the water front, because there is less danger of ''loss in the for mer section since the buildings are more widely scattered, but, unforiuna'ely all people do not insure their property (We wish they would.1 Further more the insurance rates here are as low as in any other town south which has no perfected system of water works. Understand that wTe endorse your editorial in the main, but as insurance agents desire to correct vour error, lest it do us an injury. 1 ', . JtispcUuliy, Wm. Bragaw & Co. P1V011 s n i SEA1!
