The Great Western Farm Insur-
ance Collie Insurance and
Farm Insurance.
BY PROF. j. d. BUTLER.

Life insurance means honesty for some
men and policy for many more. In no
other way can they pay their debts, or
obey the apostles charge that man
provide Tor his own and especially those
of his own house."
But good as is life insurance, farm in
surance IN the shape of lands sold ON
ten years credit is better.
Both give great prize in return for
number OF small annual payments. Blu.
farm insurance gives that boon in the
midst OF life insurance only at the end
OF 1t. One gives it for man himself to
enjoy, the other only for his heirs One
performs, the other promises
Death" said an Irishman, sis no
great curse for it always comes just
where we would have it, at the end of
life and never at the beginning" But
this is more than can be said of life in
surance, for its blessings come at the
wrong end of life, not, like death and
farm insurance, at the right end.
Besides, in farm insurance the pay
ments are nine or ten, bat in life insur-
ance they may become so multitudinous
that they will amount to several times
the value of the prize drawn at last The
one is a lottery, the other square deal
ing.
Again, farm insurance gives you in
the outset mine which pays for itself,
for out of 1t you can dig not only a liv-
ing but gold for all payments Life in
surance makes no such pretensions. 1t
is all post naortuna-and nothing ''in the
living present. In this aspect life in
surance resembles the patent Tantalus of
Sydney Smith. That reverend Joker had
a bag of oats hung before the tongue of
his carnage. The horse hearing the oats
rattling Just ahead, would rush forward
with all his legs, yet could never quite
thrust his nose into those dainties. On
the other hand farm insurance gives
mess OF grain before the journey begins,
and all along many batting to prepare
for each hard pull before the home
stretch
Nor is this all. What life insurance
promises is fixed sum. But the land
given by farm insurance is always grow
ing i'll value. Less than forty years ago
the whole area of Iowa could have been
bought for forty millions of dollars. It
was sold by the United States for less
than that. To-day it would bring moro
Than ten times that sum.
Give me then first farm insurance.
and then life insurance.
Within thirty-three months. the Great
Western Farm Insurance Company, alias
the Burlington 81 Missouri River rail-
road company, have sold along their
line, in Iowa and Nebraska, 1898 acres
to 4,525 purchasers, on ten years credit,
and six Per cent. interest. They now
require no payment on the principal till
the end offour years after purchase.
Farmer! are you insured?

Patrons of Husbandry.

Some farmers have been made believe
that man cannot dispose of his property
of his free will as soon as he has become
a Granger Now, the facts are this; a
Patron has as much control over his own
grain or stock as he had before he was a
member of the order, and has the priv
ilege of selling them to who he chooses,
the Grange not controlling his actions in
that respect whatever.
The benefits he derives from his con-
nection with the order as to this matter
are his better information as to the pros
poets of markets, best places of buying or
shipping off stock and of acting collect
lively with neighbors and brothers, for
the disposal of their produce" to the
mutual advantage of all concerned.

Strange things happen in Indianapolis.
A police officer arrested his mother in

i'll saloon, with the saloon keepers wife,
and the old lady finding him engaged in
this childish amusement, tried to per-
suade him to go home to his wife, by
breaking pitcher over his head The
officer who made the arrest paid the fine.

"a lady remarked the other day that
she wished we would say something in
our paper about the ill-mannerlv men
of this place who are in the habit of
blockading the sidewalks of an evening
SO that ladies can not pass without GO
ing wav around them. She says the men
and boys will pile down on boxes and
chairs, in front of stores. on the side
walks, and act as though they would
rather die than to moye one jot or title
to let woman pass along on the walk.
She says if there is law to abate a
nuisance of this kind, she hopes the
Marshal will have enough respect for the
ladies to put it in force"
That did not happen in Plymouth; but
the Hoosier State, published in Newport,
is responsible for the news.

What Know About Trimming

Since the days of our grandmothers, there has
never beer such rage for trimmings upon ladies'
dresses and suits as this year, and the most popu-
lar is the so called French fold, made from bias,
material, put upon the dress in variety of styles.
Gus Sewing Machine attachments would be an i'm
possibility.
young man in Chicago has just invented an
Improvement for all Sewing Machines, with which
to put on the fold fast and as easily as an ordi-
nary hem can be made. The same implement is
also practical Binder and good Hemmer
1t is being made and sold by the Leslie Ruffler
Company, and is valuable addition to the Sewing
Machine. 1t is called Kom:ng's French Trimmer,
and will be sold by all Sewing Machine Agents.

SAFE.-A safe is not always safe 1t is
certainly not safe to start down pair of
stairs, one step ahead of a 4000pound safe,
especially where the inclination is great,
and no impeachment in the way of the safe.
1t is unsafe for the stairs, and for the fold
ing doors at the bottom of the stairs. So
we thought, and so good many others
thought, when M. A. o. Packard's safe
went crashing through the timbers as it
tumbled headlong down the hall stairs Of
Balcony block, last Friday morning. The
men who held the rope felt burning sem
sation in their hands, as the rope attach
ed to the safe ran rasping through their
palms, and Linconhelt wanted to know
if any one else was struck, as lie got up
with an abrazed knee Noah Laudeman
had sensation of pain where an iron
hook caught him in his pants. Woodward
thought the Balcony Halls safety was
pretty thoroughly tested, when the huge
iron mass landed on the front door sill
without So much as jarring the building.
The only injury done to the safe, was
displacing one of the wheels. 1t now re-
poses in Dukes drug store, where it will
receive portion of the treasure of the
First National Bank of Marshall County.

Watch-a real gem in itself. 1t is correct time
piece, and recommends itself by its unique design
no less than by its cheapness it only needs to be
seen to be admired; possessed to be appreciated.
Its cheapness is not of its worth for it is
superior in all respects to MANY Watches of much
greater cost Order one, and if it does not snit you
you can dispose of it at nice profit
That country purchasers may act understanding
ly, will send either of these Watches by express
to be examined before purchasing, provided the APP
plicant will remit with his order the sum of Fifty
Cents to cover charges. This is an offer which
certainly no one who desire nice cheap Watch can
object to,
Topersons who would like to engage in very
profitable business the sale of these watches offer
rare opportunity. No discount is made to such,
but nevertheless large profits can be realized.
