We are pleased to note the arrival O.
q professional chicken man on our
island. Judge Lichtenberg has with
considerable difficulty secured the ser
vices of Mr.. James Armstrong, who as
a chicken fancier has had considerable
experience in that line. Mr.. ARM
strong came direct from Indiana, where
he has been raised and where he has
had charge of one of the largest poultry
farms in that section. While this is q
very bad time of the year for stranger
to come to this country, we sincerely
hope Mr.. Armstrong will remain long
enough to sample our delightful sum-
mers, of which we can justly boast. He
will at once start in and assume charge
of Mr.. Lichtenberg's plant, known as
the "Gem" fruit and poultry farm.

Mr.. Ward L. Smith, of Fredericks-

diarrh@a for over thirty years. He
had become fully satisfied that it was
only question of short time until he
would have to give up. He had been
treated by some of the best physicians
in Europe and America but got no per-
manent relief. One day he picked up
a newspaper and CHANGED to read an
advertisement of Chamberlain's Collie,

got a bottle of it; the first dose helped
him and its continued use cured him.

THE SWEETNESS OF DEATH.

It must be sweet, o thou my dead! to lie
With hands that folded are from every task;
Sealed with the seal Of the Great Mystery
The lips that nothing answer, nothing ask;
The lifelong struggle ended; ended quite
The WEAKNESS Of patience and Of pain,
And the eyes closed to open not again
On desoiate dawn or drearlness of night.
It must be sweet to s1umber and forget,
TO have the poor, tired heart 60 sti1l at last,
Done with all yearning, done with all regret
Doubt, fear hope. sorrow, all forever past;
Past all the hours, or slow Of wing or fleet.
II must be sweet! 1t must be very sweet!

4 GOOD POLICY.
An Insurance Company That Has Paid
North Carolina Policy Holders Over
100000.

An Insurance Company That Has Paid
North Carolina Policy Holders Over
100000.
We would call the attention of our
readers TO the annual statement
published in this issue, of the Fidelity
Mutual Iife Association of Philadelphia
Pa.
This company has been doing bust
ness i'll North Carolina for the past six.
teen years and during that time has
paid its policy holders over two hundred
thousand dollars, and has never refus-
cd TO pay an honest claim.
When it first began business i'm this
State it was a very small organization.
having only about four million dollars
insurance in force and about eighteen
thousand dollars in assets. To-day this
progressive company has about S73,-
100000 insurance in force and over 81
O00,WD cash assets, and has paid out
III DEATH losses about S4J00,000 to the
families of deceased members. and has
done all this at Il saving Of many mil
lions of dollars in cost TO its policy
holders, as its premium rates run from
20 to 40 per cent less than the rates in
the other level rate companies, on SINH
lar policies.
Its business for 1897 was highly sat
isfactory, the results of which will not be
exceeded by any company in the count
ry. and equalled by very few
The insurance in force increased 10
per cent, premium income Is per cent;
invested assets, 30 per cent. while the
mortality cost was only 81 per cent of
the expected, showing n surplus saving
Of 80 per cent from that source alone.
In six years the insurance i'm force has
doubled, and the surplus has increased
three fold
The Fidelity does not claim to be of
the largest but does claim eminence
in security and equity to its policy
holders and agents. Its plan is the
same as that which has been in use in
Great Britain for over one hundred
years, without the record of one single
failure. This system was introduced
into this country by Mr.. l.. G. Fouse.
its president and actuary, (who is a
recognized authority ON life insurance.,
and is now commonly known as the
''Fousc System of life insurance.
ANY one who will take the trouble to
investigate for himself, will soon be-
come convinced that he. can save money
by taking II policy with the Fidelity,
and at the same time will have infinitely
better security than can be afforded UNI
der the old system.
If you are insured it will pay you to
compare the rates you are now paying,
and the conditions of yonr policy with
the rates and policies of the Fidelity.
If yon are not insured, but know
that you ought to be, you will find it
| to your advantage to communicate with
the General Agents. Messrs. Burbhead
and Farwell, Raleigh, n. G.
