JOHN CoCHNowER. President.
n. w. HARRIS, Secretary.
This is one of the most sound Life Insurance
Companies in the country. Its officers are OF the
substantial business men of Cincinnati. The Com
pany pay no enormous salaries to pampered OIL
cials or premiums to their agents. Matthews,
Stanley & Matthews, are the counsel for the Com
ber of the firm, which is endorsement enough of
the standing of the company and the integrity OF
its officers and managers. 1t is the duty OF every
man while in health TO provide for his family, so
that they may not be left destitute when he is ta
ken from them. St. Paul says: "He that neglects
to provide for his own household denyes the faith
and is worse than an infdel." This Company offers
superior inducements in low rates for insurance
So that almost e7ery man can make some provision
for his family. Call at my office with I. Spencer
Stillman over the Post Office and get circulars and
all other information wanted on the subject.
