of one week in Boston with performance OF
Camille Monday evening before an dience
large and especially sympathetic, composed as
it largely was of her country people. The
Journal says:-"Her Camille has already been
witnessed by Bostonian play-goers, and at
another theatre few months since won high

evenings portrayal well justified repetition
of that most favorable verdict. Her concep-

conscientious type. Her support was good

What is high life in Portland if it be not the
life if the old historic First Parish, and what

the storm last Sunday prevented many from

Advantageous Insurance.

The Semi Endowment Policy of the Mu-
tual Life Insurance Company of New York
is believed to be the most desirable plan OF
insurance ever offered.
Among its advantages are: A definitely
guaranteed cash value at specified time:
a paid-up policy for full value in case of
discontinuance. Its period 40 years. covers
the productive years of life, when insurance
is mostly needed. 1t provides for old age.
Above the age of 40 the rates are less than
for life policies in other companies, ewhiie
below 10 they are but little in excess of or
binary life premiums.
Parties insured in Cooperative Societies
are requested to compare the net cost of
these policies with that of assessment insur.
