FACTS lEl FIGURES DON'T Lii!

IT Is A WELL KNOWN
FACT that strength and cheapness
in Life Insurance consist in the
rate of interest obtained by the
Company insured in.
The Premiums charged for
ABSOLUTE SAFETY and by
legal requirement are based upon
established table of mortality and
the superstition that only four per
cent interest can be realized.
Isit not fact that the NORTH
WESTERN MUTUAL Is the
strongest of the ten largest Amer
lean Companies, having reached
that place nine years ago and
maintained it ever since? Why?
Because of a careful selection of
risks and ahigh rate o%finterest re
ceived on the observation-disclosures.
QUESTIONABLE SECURITY
having over SIS, 000, 900 of loans
secured by first mortgage on real
estate principally in the Western
States) valued at nearly S5O,0OO,-
900.
The GREAT WONDER sthat
our shrewd financiers of the West
will send their millions of dol
lars in life premiums to Eastern
Companies confined in their loans
to their own State or City, where
the Eastern Companies are con-
tent to realize 5 per cent annually
on their investment; and without a
higher rate than 4 per cent inter
est no dividend would be possible,
except from the saving in mortal
ity and expenses.
Now the Northwestern has aver
aged over 7 per cent. and conse-
quently not only has, but divides
the extra 3 per cent. in the shape
of dividends to its policy holders.
Therefore is it not a plain fact
why its dividends have surpassed
all Others of the ten largest Com
panies for the past ten years.
Western rates of interest may
decline in sympathy with Eastern
rates but can never reach the same
level, hence if you want to insure
your life in the strongest, and on
account of its large dividends, the
cheapest Company, and you take
time to think, you will always
select the Northwestern Mutual in
preference to all others. CALL
AND BE CONVINCED.
Yours TRULY,

General Agent.

had strength in proportion to that of the
beetle, he could lift nearly 200, 600
pounds. Ifhe were agile in proportion to
the agility Of the flea, he could leap over

are so feable that they can neither lift nor
leap. Their blood is poor. their digestion

FROM TEXAS.

AUSTIN, TEXAS, March %, 1854.
Martin Douglass, Eaton, Preble Co.,
Ohio:
DEAR SIR-Yours of the 10Th inst,
at hand. In answer to your inquiries
as to health, cost of living, labor, &c.
will say of Travis county, that it is
the healthiest place L was ever in,
and when l tell you l have been in
nearly every state in tie Union you
will see the force of my assertion
Owing to the diversity of it's topo
graphy, soil and other characteris-
tics, the county is adapted to a great
variety of pursuits. 1t combines in
fact many of the distinctive features
which separately characterize several
portions of the State. From the
heavily timbered hills in some places
assuming the proportion Of noun
tains, in the western portion, the sur
face slopes down to the rich alluria al
bottoms of the Colorado river, and
the rolling prairies in the eastern sec
ton. The cotton, grain and fruit
producing lands lay side by side, and
in consequence the landscape pre-
sents a pleasing diversity of aspect,
and the soils an unusual and profita
BILE variety, the Colorado river flows
through the county from west to east
in a somewhat s%outherly course. 1t
ranks first among the rivers of the
State in size, but, owing to the shoals
and falls in its channel is not nava
gable. Along its. banks are some of
the most beautiful and productive
farms in the state and also some of
the finest scenery. In addition to
being we'll watered the county is also
well timbered. About four fifths of
the area is more or less denselv
covered by a growth comprising near
ly every species of tree known in
Texas, except the Pine and Sweet
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1884-04-03

Sales of property in our city are
good and at fair prices, and to invest
in town property in almost any part
of our city is much better than de-
posting at 3 or 4 per cent interest
John Ripple sold to Michael Nc
Laughlin last week his main street
property for 100000. This will pay
Mr.. Mclaughlin over 8 per cent in
terest. Willard Edison sold to G.
Hoag, of Covington, KY, his residence
on Decatur street for 100000, which
has paid Mr.. Edison about % per- cent.
on his investment. Property has and
will c%ontinue.to pay better than money
on interest, as money will continue to
go lower on its rental value while
real estate will advance. We might
mention several other sales ofproperty
not confined to any special locality
Theie is q fair demand in all divisions
of our good little city, showing us to
be financially in o healthy condition.
Let us keep it up.

ly related 10 them than their first
cousins. The discrimination is sin
gular, but will probably prove ofsome
effect. 1t is a pity that the Federal
judiciary has had so low a sense of it's
dignity as 10 indulge in nepotism so

necessary. Senator COKE made a
speech upon the subject and INDUCED
himself in q statement which has the
air of being unusually improbable
He said that not for years had any
United States Judge failed 10 create
a greater or less scandal by the fiagi-
,tious and indicate appointment to
lucrative office Of his relations. There
was IL exception only, and he was a
Texas Judge.
