DELAYS are Dangerous.

The benefits accruing to poor men from
carrying life insurance have recently had
at least two striking exemplifications in
this county in the deaths of Messrs. De.
Witt G, Holcomb and s. B. Brownlee.
Each of these two had only paid an annual
premium and settlements were promptly
made as soon as the necessary papers
were made out. Mr.. Holcomb was
insured in the Mutual Benefit, of Ne.
wark, N. j., which is represented in the
Fork by G. N. G. Roleman, and In this
city by 6. w. Miller. This is one of the
strongest and most reliable companies, be-
ing In it's 46th year of existence and hav-
ing 30 millions of assets. 1t deserves
special mention for Its prompt settlements,
having adjusted Mr. Holcomb's claim
within ten days from the time proof was
made.
sDelays are Dangerous" Livery one
should promptly attend to this important
matter and thereby protect their wives and
children, In case of death, from the dread
full inconvenience of poverty. Look out
for the Agents Of the Mutual Benefit Life
Insurance Company, and take o policy

The Eve OF Battle.
The moon arose In all It's splendor
Ger Manassas Plain,
And seem'd to shine with beams more tender
On the graves Of last years slain;
Young heroes full Of hope.
Silence reigned in the camp that night;
The jecund laugh was hushed;
And many brave and gallant knight
A tear from his dark cheek brushed,
As he thought of his far Off homo.
For many young and valiant brave,
Fer that moon should rise again,
Would fill soldiers early grave,
Upon Manassas CORY Plain
A second time baptized.
One soldier from amidst the rest
Withdrew to his tent all alone;
He bowed his head, and his heart he prest
As he thought Of the loved ones ut homo
A second day tho battle ragged;
He thought Of his wife and his children three,
And his heart was filed with sorrow!
He wrote, "my last thought shall be of thee,
Should fall upon the morrow"
That soldier was still at his post;
Where the fight was hottest he was engaged,
For she kept back no part Of the cost"
And fell martyr there.
Midst the din Of '1ttle the summons came.
'Midgt the shot j Of victory,
He yielded his life on Manassas Plain
a sacrifice for liberty.
Far away from home, yet not all alone,
For he died IN loved brothers arms;
Away fsom this earth his spirit has flown,
TO land where no more shall rude bat
ties alarm
Disturb his peaceful rest. G.
