DIVIDEND paid policy holders, lst April
1868, forty per cent.
This Company has met with success beyond
all parallel in Life Insurance, and offers to the
Southern public Home Enterprise equal to any
and surpassed by none in existence.
Commenced active operations about Nov. 1st,
1867.
Assets 18th of Sept. 1869, 81, OOO0-now
much increased
Policies issued, 5000.
1t has paid for losses of S31 900 and in every
instance waived the ninety days time and paid
at once.
It advises the payment of all cash premiums,
because then dividends will continually decrease
each next payment until nothing will be requir-
ed, and the policy may be source of income,
but it will allow one-half loan on life and JOINT
life policies One-third loan on other participa-
ting policies.
It requires no notes for loans of the part of
premiums, but endorses the loan of its policies
until absorbed by dividends or policy is payable.
1t has no restriction on residence or travel
All its policies are n-forfetable and the right
of parties guaranteed the face OF the policy, as
part Of the contract,
1t has the following feature which other
company gives: The late war taught many the
penalty Of being separated from the Home Office
by having their part payment forfeited ''The
Piedmont guards against this in her policies and
in event Of separation from its Office by any in
tervention guarantees to such all the right Of non
Forfeiture paid up policy, surrender value and
reinstatement as though there had been no inter-
vening cause
Its investments are made for benefit of South
ern advancement.
It brings money to our peope-keeps money
with our people. Then why should they contin-
ue to impoverish themselves by sending money
off which can easily-as safely-as proftably
be spent at home?
The Piedmont asks all who wish to insure to
oo .ss foG VIII VIII any
any other company.

Judge A. 3. Cochran.

From the Personnel of the General Assem-
bly, as published in the "Old Dominion Mag
azine, - we extract the following notice of Judge
A. B. Cochran:
Alexander b. Cochran, one of the dele
gates from Augusta, was born in that county,
May 10, 1886. He is a son of Geo. NJ Coch-
ran, Esq, of Staunton, Va. He received his
primary education at the Staunton Academy
and was prepared for entering the University
of Virginia, taking the academic and law cour-
ses. At the Commencement in 1860 he was
both orator and medalist of the washington
Society," distinguished compliment to be
conferred upon any student by his fellows. AT
ter leaving the University the war shortly af-
terwards breaking out, he entered the artillery
service as lieutenant in Jones battalion, af-
terwards Cutshaw's famous battery. The
health of Lieut. Cochran becoming so much i'm
paired as to render him unfit for field duty, he
was, in the fall Of 1864, retired by a board of
field surgeons. In the fall of 1865 Mr. Coch-
ran was admitted to the bar, and was, three
ney for Augusta which office he held until re-
moved by Gen. Candy. In 1869 he was cleo
ted to the General Assembly on the Conserva-
ticket Mr. Cochran has been recently elected
by the Legislature as judge of the Hastings
court of the City of Staunton." "

of the town of Staunton. '-ED.
RECEIPT FOR FINDING A HUSBAND. More
common sense aud less wit
More useful occupation and less music,
More study of the Mysteries of the kitchen
and less Of the Mysteries of Paris.
More proof to men that they will find in their
wife a helpmeet and not an embarrassment.
The recipe, if thoroughly tried, will greatly
lesson the number of bachelors.
A little girl in Western town, after study
ing for some time picture of the Magdalen
reclining ON her face and weeping, suddenly
turned to her mother and exclaimed !: "Mama,
l know why Mrs. Magdalen is crying. 1t is
because Mr.. Magdalen does not buy her clothes
nough.''
1.-The fact is said an elderly wife, "a man
does not know how to straighten up things
He does not know where to commence. don't
wonder she remarked in conclusion, that
when God made Adam He went right to work
and made woman to tell him what to do. I"
Touching and irresistible was that invitation
of the rustic maiden to her swain: oCome
and see me- we have new lamp at our house,
that we can turn down, down, down, until
there isn't scarcely bit of light in the room. !"
If we scrutinize the living men of genius,
we shall find that activity and persistence are
their leading Deculiarities Obstacles cannot in.
