The benefits accruingto poor men from
carrying life Insurance have recently had
at least two striking e1emplifcations in
this county in the deaths of Messrs. De-
Witt O. Holcom5 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. Brownlee and Holcomb were
both insured in the Mutual Benefit, of
Newark, N. j., which is represented in the
Fork by C. N. G. Bo1eman, and in this
city by G. W. Miller. This is one of the
strongest and most reliable companies, be-.
ing in its 46th year of existence and hav-
ing 30 millions of assets. It 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."-Every 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 q policy
without delay. G. W. MILLER,
