We would call attention to the adver-

some of the strongest insurance cOmpan-

that insures.

One of our citizens received a letter
last week from a Detroit gentleman
making inquiries about the National
bank and expressing desire to take

Last week we put in notice of gold
sleeve button that had been found. The

1t was one they had lost, and they keep
coming. Nothing like advertising in
the TRIBUNE.
