There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable. For
a great many years doctors pronounced
it local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced
itiucurable. Science has proven catarrh
to be a constitutional disease, and there
fore requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
FL. CHENEY & CO., Toledo, Ohio,
is the only constitutional cure on the
market. 1t is taken internally in doses
from 10 drops to teaspoonful. 1t acts
directly upon the blood and mucous
surfoces of the system. They offer one
hundred dollars for any case it fails to
cure. Send for circulars and testimo-
malls. Address.

THE PROOF.

Ifthere are any persons who regard Tontine
assurance as a failure, it is safe TO say that
they base their opinion on the criticism OF
those who are identified with companies that
do not issue Tontine policies. The easiest
demonstration Of this is to cite few of the
dividends declared in 1891 on some Of the 90
year Tontine policies of the. Equitable. For
example, the holder Of Life policy No. G6,54s
has enjoyed $4,000 Of assurance for % years,
for which he has paid $3.50 in annual pre-
miums. He is now able to draw cash divi-
iend of S4,154.3O, and may continue his as.
surance al reduced rate of premium.
Or, he can surrender his policy and add to
cash value to this cash dividend, and thus
draw q total of S7,213.6o in money. This is
equivalent to return Of all he has paid in
premiums, with simple interest added st the
.ate of 8 per cent. per annum.
Or, he can convert his polic- and dividend
INTO paid assurance for S13,3So equal to GAG
per cent. Of the premiums paid),
The largest profits. however, are shown on
Endowment policies. Take the following
Illustrations:
1.-The holder ofpolicy No. G4, ,925 for $4,000
has paid S4,T9s in premiums. The present
cash value Of his policy and dividends is S.
44e.45, equal to return OF all he paid, with
interest at the rate Of over per cent. per
snnum in addition.
.. The holder Of policy No. 65,442 for S1o,-
COO has paid $3.50 il premiums. The present
cash of policy and dividends is 16,94S.5O,
eoual to return Of all he has paid, with In
terest at the rate OF over per cent. per an
rum.
3. The holder Of policy No. Co. ,495 for $4,000
las paid S3,1o6. so in premiums. The present
cash value Of his policy and dividends IS
S5,43S.31, equal to return Of all he has paid
With interest at the rate OF ovcr7 per cent. per
annum.
The Tontine policy Of the Equitable Life
assurance Society Of the United States not
only protect your wife and children if you
should be taken from tavm, but also yield
handsome retnrn to yourself ii you live and
l:eep your policy in force.
1t is easy for any life company to show
large returns on policies which mature as
Death Claims, but the Equitable shows large
returns also to the living policy-holder. Its
Twenty-year Tontine Policies maturing in
1891 (by the expiration of the the Tontine
period) have cash surrender value equal to
return of all premiums, with interest at
rates varying between two and sevcA per
cent. per annum.

The Picnic at Utopia.

The Utopia school in No. s Township
closed with picnic on last Saturday.
AS was to be expected, a considerable
crowd, composed of both old and young,
was present to listen to speeches on
educational subjects in the morning,
and afterwards to spend the rest of the
day in recreation and pleasure.
Messrs. Arthur Kibler, G. B. Cromer
and Mr.. J. D. Mann spoke on the i'm
portance of education, and seemingly
received the attention of the entire
audience.
The people in this community are
wide awake on the common school
question, and are anxious to hear it
discussed. After the speech-making
was finished, all were invited to most
sumptuous and bountiful dinner. This
was the best part of the programme, as
the Utopia people know how to enter
tain their friends and seem to delight
in doing so. Every one felt at ease, no
meaningless formality being INDUCED
in.
