ATTENTION, FARMERS,

Ono OF the most prominent farmers
In the State. after working hard and
intelligently for many, years, had Just
gotten his farm In splendid condition,
and was looking forward with much
pleasure in anticipation OF large and
remunerative crops, the profits from
which would enable him to live in ease
and to give his children the college edu-
cation Which heunfortunately had been
denied. Before he realized his hopes,
however, he died. leaving a widow. five
children and mortgage on the farm.
The year before he died he talked with
one Of our citizens about his farm, the
mortgage. ETC.. who advised him to
make an arrangement that, In case OF
his death before the mortgage was paid
off, would lift the mortgage. and give
his widow an Income throughout her
life. The farmer followed this gentle
man's advice and made one deposit
with him, which paid the premium on
policy in the Penn Mutual Life IN
snrance Company, and now the farm
er's widow has fine farm, free OF
debt, and also an income throughout
her life, which will help educate the
children. Any member of the Farm
ers' Convention who wants to make a
similar provision can do so. CAPTAIN
