Do Your Duty.
“England expects every man to do his
duty,” said Nelson at Trafalgar, and “duty
performed Is tha subllmest achievement.”
said R. E. Lee. Then why not insure your
property in the Cherokee Mutual Fire In
surance Company, and be happy, freeing
yourself from anxiety as to the effect a loss
of your house would curtail on yourself and
family also.
This Is the cheapest insurance known
among men and your money kept at home.
Instead of swelling the Coffers of Northern
Co-operations to be used for enslaving the
many for the Isinefit of the few in the Gigan
tic Trusts which seek to control the staple
necessities of life, or is loaned to the despots
of Europe to bind the shackles of slavery
tighter upon the limbs of their helpless sub
jects. If you feel It your duty to insure, this
company asks that you consider the claims
it has upon you.

gion.
The Colombian government also has
announced the repulse by a govern
ment war vessel of a revolutionary at
tack some days ago upon the Magda
