Edwin Baxter Perry, who gave his piano lecture recital on Friday night of last week at. Limestone College, had a very appreciative and good- sized audience. He is a remarkable pianist, for a blind artist, and it would lie consider ed very artistic playing even in one who could see. His descriptions were very interesting and helped one to understand and appreciate the class ics. Mr. Perry never misses a key, hav ing the sense of “location” very well developed, and his power and delica cy are indeed remarkable. SOME FACTS WORTH CONSIDERING. The Aetna Life Insurance Company with a record of over Fifty-Five Years of honorable dealing, and with assets of nearly Seventy-Four Million Dollars and nearly Nine |Millton Suuplus commends itself |to public confidence. The undersigned has been engaged in the Insur- unce busines at this place since August, 1899. During this time he has sold personal business in and around Gaffney aggregating about One Million Dollars and not a single policy holder has ever stated that the goods were misrepresented in order t® make a sale. It pays to deal with a man who not only represents the best there is in Insurance, but one who understands the business, knows what he is selling and will tell you the plain, unvarnished truth about his Company and its con tracts.
