PERUVIAN SYRrP.-This valuable medicine
has been silently making its way into public
favor by the numerous remarkable cures it
has performed. Its singular efficacy is owing
to the protoride of iron which in this prepaIa-
ton remains unchanged, and is the only form
in which this yitay element of healthy blood can
be supplied. ie23-eod1w

THE FINAL CLOSING OUT SALE OF PAINT
INGs at No. 5 Deering Block, will take place
this Thursday evening. This time has been
chosen to accommodate those Of our citizens
whose business will not allow of their attend
ancc during the day. A new catalogue has been
issued containing an almost entirely new and
really choice selection of pictures. As this is
the closing sale, and all the pictures are to be
disposed of, we suppose it superfluons in us to
recommend general attendance of buyers.
Remember this is the last evening, and you can
buy at your own price, as they must and Will
be sold.

Non-forleiiue as applied generally to Life
Insurance Policies means that after two or
more pay meuts have been made and the policy
larses that the policy is good for the pro "a ia
proportion oil the policy paid for. The Mass
achusetts NOn-forleiture law applied to Mass
achuset,s Companies, protects the insured for
the full amount Of the policy SO long as the
value of the policy converted into premium
money will carry the policy.
An example under this law has just occurred
i'll this city, and we cite it, simply because it
is so often doubted or denied.
Mr. William Thompson Insured his life with
the New England Company for $500 }, dated
August 81, 1868. He then paid 60 per cent.
of his first premium in cash aud gave loan
note to the Company for the remaining
40 per cent When the renewal was due Mr..
Thompson was not able to pay the premium,
although he was intending and hoping to do so
soon. Nevertheless he did not; bat suddenly
died May q, 1870, over nine months after the
policy had elapsed. The Massachusetts, Law
comes to his help and Mr. Thompson will re-
ceive his $4,000 insurance less his note part of
his first premium and the second premium
which had not been paid, leaving him $4626.67.
Had he been insured ia any of the older COM
pauies even now doing business in this conn
try, he would doubtless have received nothing.
And this is bnt a truthful statement of the
benefits of The Massachusetts non forfeiture
law in its application to life policies.
