liberal, honest, dealing with policy

S264,587, ,6o3.32 in premiums, and paid
policy holders in death claims and
dividends $217,66s,4so.65 In sixty
years, and still has $93, ,237, ,044.87 as
sets for policy holders future benefit
have any weight with you?
Do you want policy issued by com
pany that has never failed to live
up to it's policy eontracts-the con-
ditions Of which are so plain that
child can understand just what
policy means?

"PERFECTION"
OIL STOVES.

Every family should have and wants
a rst-class Oil Stove. UP to the in
PRODUCTION Of the PERFECTION, the
one great drawback and objection to
oil stoves has been their propensity to
smoke, caused by the crawling" up
ward of the wicks. This imperfection
Is entirely overcome in the Perfection.
1t is so arranged that 1t Is impossible
for the wick to crawl and cannot
possibly smoke. Most oil stoves have
been mussy things. hard 10 keep in or
der and clean. The Perfection is so
compact and simple that 1t Is as easy
to keep clean as an ordinary lamp.
Another advantage of the Perfection
Oil Stove is that 1t can be used for a
stove for ten minutes and in one min
ute more can be converted into an IL
Illuminating lamp for the reading table.
The price is low. the stove is good,
it makes a terrific heat in few sec
onds and makes a beautiful clear
light as a reading lamp.
Come and let us show it to you.

F.. Q. B l. A OK
Life Insurance.
QUALITY AND PRICE.

THESE are two essentials about
l. which the careful buyer must have
information before he invests his
money in any article on the open
market. -,
These two qualities are as essential
In the purchase Of Life Insurance as
in any other commodity. Both should
be ascertained with the greatest care.
The Security Life and Annuity Com
pany offers the best in quality at the
lowest cost. Why pay more for CIV
en- article when you can buy some
thing fully as good, IL not a little bet
ter for less money.
Our policies are more liberal ana
contain special and peculiar adVan-
tages that are not contained In the
policies of any other company.
1t will give me a pleasure to point
out the features In which we excel,
whether insurance Is desired or not.
Il Is worth a great deal for the seeker
after insurance to get all the infor-
nation he can.

If any Londoner crawling up to bust.

turned his idle mind TO wondering why
1t was called "fog" lac would probably
decide that 1t could not have been call
ed anything else. Fog" is its obvious
name. Yet there is much speculation
among philologists on this point. DR..
Murray's dictionary suggests an inter
estinG pedigree. AS far back as the
fourteenth century fog" meant after
grass, the rank grass that sprang I'D
after hay harvest or grew in the win
ter, while in the north 1t meant moss.
Then foggy" came to mean DOGGY.
Next 1t was used TO mean bloated or
puffy Of the flesh OF men or animals.
and finally, as applied to ale or air. it
meant thick, and our modern fog was
derived back from this "foggy." Skeat.

London fogs IS that they do not drift

HON. A. ]. MONTAGUE.

In conformity with our statement
of last week. we print the follow
ing in regard to the candidacy of
Hon. \. J. Montague for the
United States Senate:
EDITOR COURIER:
Hon. 4. j. Montague is not and
never has been an advocate or sup
porter of machine" politics.
He advocates a true democracy,
and believes in the welfare of the
plain people, of which he is one.
He is far better known than Mr..
Martin was when he was elected
to the Senate. and his personal
strength and ability have been
proven. Mr.. Martin had never
held public Office of any character
and did not have the slightest ex-
perience. On the other hand Mr..
Montague has held responsible and
high positions under the State of
Virginia and his ability has been
proven.
Mr.. Montague believes that the
Democratic party needs reorgani-
cation and strengthening along
party lines, and if he Is elected he
will no doubt use every endeavor
to forward the interests of the
party in State and Nation.
Mr.. Montague is an outspoken
champion of democracy against
plutocracy, and believes the Sena-
tors of the United States should be
elected by direct vote.
If elected to the Senate Mr..
Montague will use every endeavor
to improve the condition of the
masses.
Mr.. Montague's friends ask the
following questions:
What bill for the advancement
of the masses has Mr.. Martin ever
introduced 1t is true he has
worked for a number of private
claims and had them passed. but
does he deserve any especial credit
for that! 1t was his duty. and he
should not claim any special praise
therefor. Has Mr.. Martin ever
introduced any bills for the gene
raj Improvement or assistance of
Virginia! If so, when! Did Mr..
Martin represent the sentiment OF
Virginia when he helped to nomi-
nate Parker on the gold platform
And last, Mr.. Montague's per-
sonality, ability, strength, and
general belief in the common peo-
pie more eminently fit him for the
position of Senator from Virginia
than any other man who could be
put forward.
One OF HIS FRIENDS.

The Presidentalso talked up right
pert on the question of railway
rates and regulations. He again
threatened to call an extra session
of the Congress unless something
was done on that subject. The
Republican leaders got together
and decided that some sort of bluff
must be made or the President
would be compelled to make good
in some manner or have the admin
istration thoroughly discredited in
the eyes of the people. There was
a tacit understanding that the
House would get busy and pass a
makeshift bill and that the Senate
would do nothing, giving as an ex-
cuse the shortness of the session
and the immense pile of work to
do in passing the supply bills
which were absolutely necessary
to keep the wheels of the govern
ment going. We all know what
was done. The House leaders cot
up hasty makeshift bill by steal
ing some of the good points of the
Hearst bill. which had been intro
duced a year ago, being very care
full, however, not to incorporate in
their bill the Excellent points of

A WHITE HEADED EAGLE
InVades Poultry Yard and IL
Killed BY Bert York.

A white headed eagle which
measured over seven feet from tip to
tip of its wings was killed on Apple
cato a few days ago by Bert York.
The bird had invaded the poultry
yard Of VIM. Messenger who lives
near Murphy and pounced upon one
Of the biggest geese Of the flock.
Mrs Messenger, hearing commotion
among the poultry. geese screaming
and chickens cackling, ran out to see
wlat was the matter, whereupon the
eagle abandoned its prey and few
away short distance. After
changing its position few times it
alighted on tree on the opposite side
Of the Applegate river when Mr.
York, taking long shot, was success
ful ia bringing it down. 1t was a
marvelously ferooious looking bird
with wicked beak and talons some
two inches long. Mrs. Messenger
stuffed the bird to preserve it AZ a
souvenir. The goose was so badly
mangled that 1t had to be killed.
