county, Kansas. They have had everything
pretty much their own way for some time
past but a reaction has occurred, the citizens
lave organized vigilance committees, whose
excuses have been SO great that the State
militia has been ordered out. But the end is
not yet. AT the latest accounts Butler county
may be said to be in a state of quasi-rebelion
Shall we ever cease hearing of these acts Of
lawlessness in the once bleeding but now
Bloody Kansas?

1t advises the payment of all cash premiums,
because then dividends will continually decrease
Jed, and the policy may be source of income
but it will allow one half loan on life and JOINT
slife policies. One-third loan other participa-
sting policies.
1t requires no notes for loans of the part of
5premums. but endorses the loan of its policies
until absorbed by dividends or policy is payable.
It has no restriction on residence or travel
All its policies are non-forfetable and the right
sof parties guaranteed the fcce OF the potacy, as
spart of the contract.
1t has the following feature which other
scompany gives: The late war taught many thel
spenalty Of being separated from the Home Office
sby having their part payment forfeited. 'Thel
Piedmont guards against this in her policies and
Elm event of separation from its Office by any in-
servention guarantees to such all the right Of nom
forfeiture, paid up policy, surrender value and
reinstatement as though there had been no inter
svening cause.
! Its investments are made for benefit of South

1t brings money to our people-keeps money
with our people. Then why should they contin-
Cue to 1mpoverish themselves by sending money
aotf which can easily-as sately-as. proftably

scompare its ates-terms-progress with any
