A WORD ABOUT LIVE INHUKAKCE.—If anything wor wanting to demonstrate tho deceptive character of tho system of co operative Ufa insurance, now running liko it it uncontrollablo mania through certain portion* of Pennsylvania, it i* t< be found in tho report of Insurance Commissioner ' Forstor, of our State. By tho report of \ Mr. Forstor for tho year 1879 it appear* that tho entire cath income of 22 compa ny* in Pennsylvania amounted to $281,- 606.'>4. Of thi* autn only HIH>UI $141,670, or almiit olio-half, wax used in the payment of death claim*. Tho other half wa* ab ■orbed in the exponas account of the com. panic*. Mr. Forater remarks with great aptne-s that if these companies expect to win public approbation "a* economical substitute* for regular life insurance they must produce a better record IIIHII tins." It is estimated that fully five hundred of theso co-operative companies have been organized in tho United State* within the past live years. They flourished tempor arily, hut have disappeared, leaving no record of their existence beyond tho dis appointment* and losses of tin ir victims. Now, why should these ti >.. mt concern* be permitted longer to impi • upon the public? They are purely -p<- ilntiveand should not be tolerated.

Most of the alley* of the town are at 1 present in an absolutely filthy condition. They arnmade the depositories of accumu lated garden rubbinh, stable excresence*, refuse of tables and kitchens and the waste of the winter's fuel. We believe there is - a borough ordinance prohibiting person* from debiting any manner of dirt or filth on the street* or alley*, and a com- i pliance with the direction* of the ordl- ' nance in the very spirit, ought to be the j aim and do*ire of every citizen, without ! calling in the aid of the law to enforce it. Of course it is the duty of the Street Com missioner to see that the streets and alley* are cleaned, but it certainly can do no harm for private citizens to tak" an inter- ; est in the matter and assist, by all reason- - able means, the accomplishment of the ob ject in view. —A fter the average husband has been en- i gsged all day in trout fishing and hi# good wife lias been equally busy in house clean ing, what exquisite pleasure is felt when they again meet at the supper table t-> par 'take of the elegant compounds made of groceries from 8.
