NEW POLICIES ARE PLANNED Federal Government Perfecting New Forms With Many Advantages Which Insured Men Will Want In.Place of Present Con- tracts. Washington.—A busy place these days of demobilization Is the bureau of war risk Insurance of the treasury de- partment of the United States, with its 14,000 employees and its files contain- ing 80,000,000 records. Demobilization is having the effect of making a large proportion “of the goldiers become transient for an in- 'definite perlod after leaving the serv- jce. Many of the original addresses of these men Dhecome useless, as thou- sands forget to leave forwarding ad- dresses and neglect to write to the bu- reau. In'thls way many men are los- ing touch’ with the bureau and are neglecting théir insurance. Hence the efforts of the 'bureau to keep in touch with demobllized men are increasingly difficult, as demobilization progresses. Every possible agency is being used, including ‘the Red Cross and publie or- ganizations of many kinds. Uncle Sam Ig perfecting plans for the new farm#$ of government insur- dnce which the demobilized soldier will want In plnce of his war risk insur- ance. But the soldier cannot change his war risk insurance for this new in- surance unless his monthly premiums are pald up to date on his old fnsur- ance. fes Adyice to Soldiers. The adwice,svhich s being sent out from the burean of war risk insurance to-the soldiers who hrnye left the serv- fce way be summarlzed thus: ‘Hold on to your war risk insurance. Keep up your premium payments. 1f you have permitted your insurance 40 :lapse—even If you have formally canceled It—hasten to reinstate it un- ‘der the new and liberal provisions for reinstatement.

Uncle Sam provided every soldler, zailor and marine with a right to 3 policy for $10,000. If you can't keep all of it, keep at least part of it. You can reduce It if you have to.

Ypu may have .the whole month in which to pay the premium for that moflth. If you fail fo pay and your policy lapses, you may get it back through' provisions for reinstatement. ' Cash and Loan Values. After one year the new government policies will have guaranteed cash and loan values, also pald-up insuraince and extended term insurance values. The “cagh, value” of a new government pol- fey l ;he amount the government gives you, it you choose to give up your in- surdnce. The “loan value” means that ¥ou' ¢an borrow money on your policy up to 94 per cent of the cash value. “Paid-up insurance and extended terlm ‘insurance values” mean that fn the new policles, if you stop paying premiums after one year, the govern- ment allows one of the following op- tions: (1) To remain insured for a certain time without cost to you. (2) To receive a policy for a smaller amount, which will be paid, no matter wheén you dle, and on which you will not have to pay any more premiums.

A STRANGE ‘STORY By MADGE WEST. Ruth, My Dear: 1 am going to spend this June afternoon in writing you of the strangest love story that I am sure .| you ever heard—and the love story is my own. prised? It is true that I answered recentlyl your questioning as to any possible present love affair, assuring you that during my long time with Aunt Mil- licent In Cooperstown, no young, old or middle-aged man had pald me the slightest attention. And I believe 1 further went on to say that few men find thelr way to this quaint, isolated town. So, of course, you must have mentally resigned me to the fate of single blessedness, which I, myself, hive long considered In a cheerful spirit. But all this is past, and I am to be married tomorrow—a glorious tomor- row, Ruth, dear, with all the flowers of the garden sending forth perfume, like the emanating joy of my heart. Coming to Cooperstown with a girl's yearning for a continuation of vouthful pleasures, I looked about for young society. But from the first but one person claimed my Interest. A man whose abllity in his profession could not be hidden even here, and who remained in the old family home of the lonely towh in order to care for a crippled elderly sister. This sister had sacrificed much for him, raising the orphaned brother from delicate childhood to educated manhood. Thus, he now repaid her sacrifices—and what it had cost him to renounce the wider fleld of opportunity.in his chosen pro- fession none knew, save I, as I first saw him. “Who 1s that man?’ I asked Aunt Millicent, after his bow to her and his flashing glance in my direction. Aunt Millicent closed her lips In a firm way that I later learned to dread. P “His name,” she responded, “is Phillp Dare, and_the less you know o! him the better.” gl “He looks,” 1 defended, “like & finm to be admired—respected.” “He 1s,” Aunt. Miilicent answered dryly, “especlally the former. ‘And many an admiring heart has he broken. ‘T shall never marry,’ Philip tells the foolish girls, ‘my life must be devoted to my sister.” Aunt Millicent turued upon me sharply: “I saw the way he looked at you just now, Nan,” she said, “remem- ber, he is not to come near our house while you live with me.” But aunt’s admonttion was unneces sary; Phillp Dare cameé not to- her house. His greeting was ' always Are you not very much sur- gathering, or I would exchange a smile with him In passing as he wheeled his crippled sister about the quiet grounds of their old, stately homé, and always Ruth, you may laugh if you will— recalling my many girlish conquests— always, I would return to Aunt Milli- cent's, content with my glimpse of the man who had never from that first meeting, been absent from my thought.

Pulllp, T knew, cared for not one of them. 8¢ perhaps a year passed, learning nothing of his companionship, knowing hiny, it would seem, but in fancy. Then one evening he came abruptly to stand hefore me where I sat beneath a tree In the garden. “I have to go out of town for a few days,” he sald gently, “to be in con- sultation with other lawyers.” Aunt came frowning toward us. 1 could not even offer a friendly hand. “G3ood-by,” 1 sald. FKFor a moment But it was as though we had talked, he and I, of the past that was gone, and had made promises to each other for the tuture to come. 5 In his continued aloofness and ap- parent indifference to myself aunt lost her forebodings. “Now what,” she mused, “do you sup- pose brought Philip Dare in here? A passing notion, likely,” she immediate- 1y answered herself. “He was always that way.” When Philip returned from' his trip he bowed, passing the house, and 1 waved my hand In response. My heart had been with him throughout his jour- ney, nnd I strangely felt that he knew. You remember, Ruth, dear, when 1 visited you how disappointed you were n my lack of interest for those things 1 used to enjoy—my thoughts were with Phillp Dare; T was wondering anxiously @ll the time if the sick sis- ter grew more exacting; {f that new weariness still shadowed his dear pa- tient eyes. The sister died one month ago. Last night as I sat in the garden alone, Philip Dare came to me. As he sank down on the seat at my side, he clasped my hand. “Nan,” he asked quletly, “how soon will you marry me, dear?” So that is the end of my strange story, Ruth. Three sentences, perhaps, in as-many years between my true love and me. Not one eventful episode to mark those days of perfect trust and silent un- derstanding, and tomorrow ‘our wed- ding dny. . = Your best wishes - come ‘ta me, 1 know; niy. dear, but not all’ the good wishes in the world can add to the ful-] Nappiness of your friend.
