LIFE INSURANCE.
A HOME ENTERPRISE.
THE
PlEDMONT LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
OF VIRGINIA..

HAS determined to establish BRANCH OF
IL FICE i'll South Carolina. The Branch Office
Is designed to give us the full benefits of an en-
tlrely HOME COMPANY, by investing in the State
sll the funds received in it. In fact, it is better
than new company, because the PIEDMONT is
success already established, with ample capital
and assets.
So far, Edgefield heads the list, FOUR HUN
DRIED persons having insured in this favorite
southern Company in tho last six months. Able
vile numbers little less than TWO HUNDRED.
WIN not the people Of Columbia, and other sec
tions OF the State, emulate the example of these
two Districts, by coming forward without delay,
and take out policies in this Company, and secure
to te, tn, themselves the benefits of the BRANCH OF
fiCE, by having it located at Columbia?
The Piedmont has declared a DIVIDEND OF
FOKTY PER CENT The dividend could have
safely been larger but with the prudence and eau
ton which has ever guided this Company, it has
deemed it proper, being the first dividend, to hold
surplus beyond the reserve fund.
In short, the Piedmont has no superior, and
with BRANCH OFFICE in our midst, there can
surely be no possible excuse to justify Southern
man to commence, or continue, to send his money
of for Life Insurance.

 The standard remedy for bilicusness with the medical profession is the anti-bilious pill of the American pharmacopea. And its rep utation has beenswell enough deserved. But it is pit, evertheless, and most people of meeting house coming into their throats when ever pill is spoken of. fDodds Nervine and Invi gorator acts efficiently on the b11liary or ganism; it irritates neither stomach or i1tes- tine in its operation; and what is very impor- tant, as all good nurses know it is agreeable to take, being as pleasant to the pal ate as any delicate wine. We all know how it is with Cod Liver Oil. In pure state it is excellent for certain conditions of debility, and particu- larlysin tendencies to consumption; and yet many of the best physicians decline to pre- scribe it. because it 90 dreadfullv sickens the patient. That, they say, makes it do more harm than good. With Dodd's Nefyne all this becomes obsolete. ,-- --.,
