WHAT INSURANCE MEN SAY.

point and many pooh hooned the question, and ro-
ties worth than we have loaned upon them,
Then they view any publication OF figures calculated
10 show their financial condiuon as an attack
upon them, and 1t appears that many of
the insurance papers attempt to obtain longer
advertisements by threatening to expose the condition

fauited IN the payment OF premium, have offered the
property for SALE and the amount bid has not been

in presenting their lists oil assets do make

THE GREAT REFORM!
Truth Is Mighty and will Prevail


That beloved and much vencrated Father OF
our conntry, George Washington, exhibited his
peculiar trait for truthfulness at an early age
The little story of George, the Ratchet and the
cherry tree is most indelbly impressed upon the
ihinos OF every generation Of this great, good
and glorious America.
Atemus Ward once said "He was better than
George Washington, for he could tell lie, but
wouldn't"
The Agents of the Great Fort WAYNE and
Pennsylvania Railroad cannot make any ms.
representations as TO the character, equipment,
etc, OF that popular and magnificent railway,
To say that 1t is the only direct line to the Cen.
tonnal Is the truth. To say it is the best and
most substantial road on the face Of the globe,
and more money expended TO make It so, is the
truth. That it reaches all prominent points
east including Pittsburg Harrisburg, Baltimore
Washington, Philadelphia, New York and Bos
ton, is the truth. That passengers can 90 (if
they wish IL by Baltimore and Washington,
without changing cars, is the truth. That the
tares are always as low any other route, is the
truth That II Is the shortest and consequently
the quickest route from Chicago to Philadelphia
and New York, is the truth.
Whenever excursion parties are given rates
over the Fort Wayne and Pennsylvania Railway
to Philadelphia, or any point east, tickets are
furnished at the time, and no misrepresentation
made. The travelling community can always re.
ly upon the statements made by this company,
and the truth told always by its Agents and re-
representatives. about low rates, fast time, elegant
coaches, beautiful scenery. smooth track mag
nifcent through Pullman otellDrawing sRoom
and Sleeping Cars, and of the best continuous
railway line on this continent.
