C. rFlHE above Company offers all the aavan ? tages usually granted by other compa? nies, togother with eomo peonliar to itself. It ie tho only truly mutual Company in tho South. All profits aro divided among ita policy holders annually. No stockholders to absorb any portion. Dividende paid tn cash at the end of tho first year. B is more liberal than any Corny any in this, that all policies are non-forjeitalxe after the payment of one annual premium, and no violation of the conditions of the policy (save fraud, or attempted fraud,) can destroy its surrender value. Its affairs, in every respoct, are managod with tho greatest prudence and economy. Nearly $00.000 received during ii# first fi&oal year, (11th November,) and only $2,000 paid out on "death claims," in the asme time being less than fonr per cent of name, and less than $1 to each $6,000 at risk. Such management gives much better assu? rance of future stability and profit than the mere statement and premises of agents of companies not so conducting their business, no matter how large the amount of their business or assets. By assuring in this Company yonr premi? ums paid will bo under the management of men of well-known ability and integrity at home, and not sent off to retnrn only at your death. The Stato is annually drained of hundred of thousands of dollars by premiums paid to companies out of the State. Feb 1G jlmo_ Carolina National Bank OF COLOMBIA, S.C. Capital Stock Paid in, $200,000.
