IMPORTANT INSURANCE CASE.
1t Involves the Right of a Company to
Increase its Rate.

1t Involves the Right of a Company to
Increase its Rate
A very important insurance case Is to
be tried in Newbern this week. 1t is the
case Of Rhem VS.. Mutual Reserve Fund
Life Association of New York and in
wolves the right of an insurance company
to make an increase in its rate. This
company, in 1895, under the authority
of its charter and bylaws and the New
York statute. and in accordance with the
requirement of the Commissioner of In
surance of New York State, increased
the rate Of assessment of those in the
company before 1890, in order to equalize
those entering before and those entering
after that date. Mr.. Rhem refused to
pay this increase. claiming that the com
pany had no right to make it, though the
rails, has been acquiesced in by all but
about half dozen of the policy holders
concerned.
The amount actually involved in this
suit is only $1,000. hut Mr.. Rhem has
another suit of the same kind pending
for $4,000 also. The insurance company
is represented by Col John w. Hins-
dale and Mr. A. l.. Massey, of this city.
Mr.. Rhem is represented by Mr.. w. w.
Clark, of Newbern.
However the case may be decided, 1T
is of such Importance that the losing
side will probably take an appeal to the
Supreme court.

SHERIFF WILKINS FREED.
Years or Slavery, and How lie

Talks About His Oeiivercr Daily In Gratitude.
Gains Fifteen Pounds In Weight
Since His Rescue.

Urbana. Ohio. Jan. s.-(special)-
This town Is greatly exercised over the
remarkable rescue of Sheriff r. p. VIII
kins from one of the worst forms OF
slavery known to man. He has now
fully recovered from the results Of his
experience. and talks freely and CRATE
fully of his deliverer. In an inter-
view today he said: IT have been a
perfect slave to tobacco for over twenty
perfect slave to tobacco for over twen-
ty-five years; smoked from twelve To
fifteen cigars a day. November 4th.
last, ! bought my first box Of No-To-
Bac from Anderson & Cramer. I had
little faith, and to my great surprise,
after using part Of the third box, I was
completely cured and did not have the
least desire for tobacco. Today ! feel
better. ! sleeD better, think better. and
| have gained fifteen pounds In weight,
and there is not n day passes that do
not recommend No-To- Bac to many of
the tobacco users who I know are de-
strOying their lives and vitality by the
use Of the weed
Further investigation revealed the
fact that there are 500 people living in
this town and the surrounding country
who have been cured by No-To- Bac.
Anderson & Cramer stated that they
were the first to start the good work
here. as Mr.. Anderson termed it, YES,
we introduced No-TO-Bac into this
town about three years ago. The de-
mand at the start was very light. the
folks had no faith in it, but we sold to
few people. and to our great as
tonishment every one reported a cure.
Since that time we have sold hundreds
of boxes, and every one under a guar
antee to cure or refund the money. aptl
strange as II may seem. We have never
had a call to refund money"
No-To Bac not only relieves the ner-
vOus irritation and makes the use of
tobacco entirely unnecessary. but at the
same time builds uD and fortifles the
general physical condition. As ma
tural invigoratOr and stimulant we be-
lieve there Is no preparation in America
to equal II.
1.-The public should be varied, how
ever. against the purchase of any Of
the many limitations on the market, as
the success Of No-To- f3ac has brought
forth a host of counterfei.ers and imi-
tators. The genuine No-To-Bac is
made by the Sterling Remedy Co. Chi
cagO. Montreal and New York, and IL
sold under guarantee to cure by all
druggists. and every tablet has the
word No-To-Bac plainly stamped
thereon"

awoke in time to hear the conclusion Of

at last led out for execution. After all
the usual preparations he awoke with

adjoining room had both produced the
dream and awakened him. Another

In embarking on his return. he fell In
