wear away" That may bring about the Desired re-
suit in some: but very few have sufficient physical
Strength to throw OF cold, without the aid
of some coed balsam, and we should certainly rec

insurance of the Right Kind.


Read the advertisement of w. D. Little &
Co. in our columns particularly that of the
old Mutual Life Co.
Delmonico, the celebrated restaurant pro-
prietor in New York, was noted for his sagac-
ity. He had policy for ten thousand dollars
upon his life in the Mutual Life ms. Co. of
New York, and with characteristic shi ewdness
took another policy for the same amount. Dur
ing the week ending on the 9th inst. this COM
pany paid on those policies the sum insured, or
$4,000, and in addition dividends upon the
first of $5,068, and on the second Of $4.S9s.
Delmonico never used his dividends to pay
premiums, but allowed them to accumulate
and purchase additional insurance. When
such prominent men as the late Lorenzo Del
monico, and Cyrus W. Field with their means
of knowledge, insure literally in the Mutual
Life of New York, it is pretty good evidence of
the character of the investment. Mr.. Field has
policy for $4,000 which is now over $4,000
