After suffering for two years with the
distressing disease known as Rheumatism,
and Having tried great many remedies
without effect, became entirely discour-
aged and faithless in all remrdies, but
through the persuasion of a friend l pur-
chased two bottles of Durang's Rheumatic
Remedy of Messrs. Helphenstine and Bent
ley, at the same time remarking that had
no faith in it whatever nevertheless,
tried it according to directions, and to my
great surprise, after taking three doses,
was able to walk comfortably without
the use Of cane. My hands were so bad
ly effected as to be almost useless. | am now
able to follow my usual occupation nearly
as we'll as ever | am satisfied this medi-
cine will cure rheumatism IN all its forms.
All who may be afflicted try itand be sat
sfed. GEO. w. TICHEN0R,

INSURANCE.

The necessity OF al INSURANCE. DC-
partment, and its utility, have been
clearly shown, since its creation, by
the discovery of a number Of unsafe
and insolvent companies that were
doing business in this Srate, one OF
which resorted not only to fraud
but to the crime Of forgery to deceive
the public. The published assets OF
these companies, in some instances,
amounting to hundreds of thousands
of dollars, upon examination melted
away to worthless securities, the
very possession of which was q con-
vincing proof Of intention to practice
fraud The protection Of sound com
panies, the retention at home Of the
capital invested in insurance, the III
terests of the insured, and the honor
of the State, alike demand the expos
ure Of these fraudulent companies
and the enactment Of a general law
80 stringent in its regulations that 1t
will be impossible for .adyenturers,
under the cloak of an insurance CON-
ny, to rob the public. Every facility
for the detection of imposture should
be afforded those charged with the
examination Of these companies.
The immense interests involved in
this business of insurance are ent-
tied to the utmost protection the
State can extend to them, and its in-
ouiries should be so thorough that
no form of deception can elude its
scrutiny. A more comprehensive
law, also, for the Incorporation Of in
suranee companies should be passed
ana maze 10 ruI"t 49, 80 y

be allowed to organize, or exist, that
did not give the amplest guarantees
