49, Wesley Jarret section man in
the employ of the Southern railway,
on last Monday gave up his life, to
save a swiftly moving passenger train
from being wrecked, and resultant
probable heavy loss Of life. He was
glne just as he had succeeded in re-
moving a heavy obstruction from the
track. Jarret, with other men of q
section gang, were repairing piece
of track a short distance east Of Mar
ion. The work necessitated the use of
n heavy Jack" Upon hearing the ap-
proach of the fast moving passenger
train No. II, the gang made an effort
TO remove all distractions, but the
lack In some way had become fast
and clung tightly to the rail, and de-
snite their frantic efforts they were
unable to remove it. the obstruction
living in such a manner as to cause a
derailment with consequent disaster
and probable loss of life, should the
train hit II. With the train almost up
an them the men, with the exception
of Jarret, sprang for safety, feeling
that nothing could prevent wreck.
He. however, remained to make last
heroic effort, and by almost superhu-
man strength succeeded in wrenching
the Jack" free and toppled it from
the tracks, his life was the sacrifice,
however, as at that instant the engine
struck him and he was crushed TO
death under the wheels. The body be-
ing fearfully mangled. The train was
stopped and the remains of Jarret ten
derly gathered up and brought to
Asheville. None of the passengers on
the train were aware Of how close
they had been TO disaster.

A day or so ago we asked promi-
rent business man the following ques-
tiOn: What do you think Of Twenty
Pay Life contract at age 35, premium
$36.22, per $1,000 insurance, which abb
solutely guarantees the insured that In
case he does not, for any reason, pay
the second premium, the company will
either refund him $12 of the money
paid on each $1,000 insurance, or carry
the whole policy, whether it be for
81, 900 or $4,000, one year and 134 days
after the expiration of the first year,
and pay it in full without deducting a
cent in case Of death Of insured, or is
sue a paid up policy for $2S on each
$1,000. payable at death whenever
that event occurs?" The reply was: Il
think such contract too good"
Whether it is too good or not, the Mu-
tual Benefit since January l, has been
issuing such contracts and every man
on the continent who knows anything
Of the company's record covering 63
years, knows it can and will carry out
every contract 1t makes. The features
mentioned are only a few Of the new
ones incorporated in 1908 policies. You
cannot afford to ignore the Mutual
