M. GRIST'S SONS, Printers. I ?? ? I It's Care and Economy. There are lots of good life Insurance companies. In fact all of the old line companies will live up to their Guarantees, if you live up to Yours, but an investigation will convince you that there is not even One in business today that issues as plain, simple and liberal contracts as does the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Company of Newark, N. J., or that has a record that compares with it for care in the selection of risks or economy as to the expense of management, and therefore that can carry out its contracts at as low cost to the assured. Care and economy produce profits in life insurance, the same as in any other business, and in the Mutual Benefit absolutely every cent of the profits go ,to the policy holders. There are 'no stockholders. It is said that wise men look before they leap, and that the other kind leap and then look. SAM M. GRIST, Special Agent. There's a Difference In Teas.

Since my advertisement appeared last Friday there have been many of my friends who have paid up their accounts with me. To these I extend my thanks. To those who have not paid I wish to say that "What you owe must be paid without further delay." I certainly am not joking about this matter. If I have sold you goods or done work for you and charged the account, the money is "NOW DUE," and it is certainly time that the account was being paid and I want the money because I think that from any reasonable standpoint I ought to have it, and if there is any possible way to get it I am going to have it. I do not want to resort to the law method of collecting what is due me, but I shall certainly do so if I cannot collect what is due me in any other way. I shall thank you very much ir you win pay up at once. Very respectfully, W. O. RAWLS, The Plumber. TO DEBTORS AND CREDITORS. ALL persons having claims against the estate of T. H.
