Raise the right log slowly about two feet from the floor and proceed to form small circles with {t, keeping the toes pointed downward and the} knee rigid. Return to the original | starting position and relax all of the) muscles thoroughly. Do the same with the left leg.

Dinner—Brotled lamb chops, baked egg plant, cauliflower, sliced | tomatoes and lettuce and sliced pine- | apple. I hope my readers who are follow- | Ing the course have not found it diffi- cut to dispense with the third meal, and those who prefer breakfast and | | cannot get along without it may use | the luncheon menu in the morning in- | stead of at noon. An apple in the middle of the day should be suffi. | clent food to last until dinner time, if the heavy breakfast is eaten, | HEALTH AND REDUCTION Alps. When corpulence is established and @ person weighs ono hundred pounds more than intended by nature it is usually a perplexing problem to bring about @ reduction of weight, especially if the person is past middie life. How- ever, after the muscles have become supple and accustomed to the exer- |elxes, the rest of the treatment is | merely a matter of determination and Wwill-power, Remember that it is | necessary to /reduce uniformly all j articles of foods, especially the for- | bidden ones, which are ugually the real cause of the excess fat, Next re- duce the accustomed amount of | liquids and always eat less than the appetite craves, This is most im- | portant, Hot baths are essential during the reduction and those who cannot take them may substitute for them the hot Turkish towel applications and sponge baths, A rub down after these with strong camphor epirits will pre. vent cold and aid in the reduction. Letters From Readers Who Are Following the Course. DEVELOP BUST—MADELINE asks; “Can you give me an external treatment to develop the bust?

Do you mean to take the Vichy and Kissingen waters both, or one or the other? Should one take the waters and salts also?” While nursing the baby you should not go on a diet. Do not take both the waters and salts. Take the salts. Directions are on the package. Take the Vichy one day, three times, @ halt hour after meals, and the Kissingen | the next day the same way.

SEVENTY-FIRST ANNUAL REPORT To the Policy-holders and Pablic: One year ago I stated that the European war would not have any material effect on our Com- pany, notwithstanding the world-wide character of its business. ' I now confirm that statement by facts based on experience that includes twelve added months of war. In life insurance the financial effect of mortality is expressed by the per cent. which the total actual death losses of the year bear to the expected death losses according to the tables of mortality adopted by the State for valuation purposes. Through a period of years this per cent. (disregarding fractions) has been as follows:— 1912 Actual death losses 76% of the ‘‘expected’’ 1913 Actual death losses 73% of th xpected | 1914 Actual death losses 73% of the ‘expected | (6 months of war) 1915 Actual death losses 73% of the “expected ' (12 months of war) o eagec In all the world, from the beginning of hostilities up to January, 1916, seventeen months, we had in all the membership of the Company 534 separate war claims. During the year 1915:— 409 members of the Company were killed in war 3 448 members of the Company were killed by accident 707 members of the Company died of cancer 772 members of the Company died of pneumonia 950 members of the Company died of tuberculosis In the grim battle of life, with its inevitable mortality and its unnecessary slaughter, the mor- tality of a world-war, even while it is being prosecuted, amongst a membership that is also world- wide is about— 91% of that caused by accident in the same membership 580, of that caused by cancer in the same membership 53% of that caused by pneumonia in the same membership 43%, of that caused by tuberculosis in the same membership @ modern war cannot be localized. Electricity, steam, and the partial conquest of the air have made the world so small that any great international upheaval shocks the whole of civilization. War under such conditions takes its toll impartially, and in these days the nation which is an “innocent bystander’ suffers proportionately with the belligerents, , It is interesting to notice that this Company had, in seventeen months, war losses from seven- teen countries, and that what may be call: AMERICAN LOSSES exceed those of any belligerent country except in two instances: United States (including Lusitania losses)..............csceccccceereeenseeeees $112,000 A Pa NA CRENT Sr ioe 29,000 Austria-Hungary. 105,500 da..... 000 Great Britain 84,000 Russ! 76,000 Life insurance isn’t designed merely for times of peace. It would confess its inability highly to serve humanity if it did not measurably cover all the risk naturally incurred by healthy men DURING THE YEAR 1915 NO POLICY-HOLDER OR BENEFICIARY, WHEREVER RESIDENT, WAS DENIED A REASONABLY PROMPT SETTLEMENT OF ANY JUST CLAIM. WE HAVE IG- NORED, AND STILL IGNORE, ALL MORATORIA, ALTHOUGH THESE REGULATIONS ARE IN- VOKED AGAINST US IN SOME PLACES, In New Business we have done well, We have made good the natural shrinkage on an outstand- ing Levellers Se eesti ane at the close of 1914, and increased the total amount to $2,403,000,000 at the close of 1915. Of the $214,000,000 new business paid for in 1915 over $200,000,000 was secured in the United States and Canada. 0 NO BOND ISSUED BY ANY BELLIGERENT COUNTRY AND HELD BY US WAS IN DEFAULT OF PRINCIPAL OR OF INTEREST AT THE CLOSE OF 1915. Market values, as a whole, are a little lower than a year ago. Bonds of belligerent nations are quoted in our Annual Statement at the market where a quotation was obtainable, otherwise and in only one instance as of June 30, 1914.
