Tho livery business has grown raoio
than nny other business in our city, it
has only becu a few years since a dozen
horses and buggies did the busineaa of
the city, and to-day Athens can boast of
as fine livery stables as there aro in the
South. It will only take a short time for
dne to be convinced of this fact, as tak
ing a walk through the stables and see
hov^rell thev aro ‘•quipped for the trad
ing public with fine landaus, carriages,'
buggies and any number of thoroughbred
horses. The atablea are well arranged,
and auv one can be atvomolodated at any
hour, da)r or night. Our livery men
deserve credit for keening such splendid
stables and fine turnouts.

3. The first company and still nearly the
only company to attach to policy a copy
or ihe application, upon which the con-
traot fat based.
4 It issues a greater variety of policies
than any other company. It has lately
perfected a mortuary dividend system
under which its policies v* issued with
guaranteed return of tl! premiums paid
in addition to the face of the policy, in
cave of death during a specified period.
6. The returns on '£01^100 policies, in
this company, tha} have matured Lave
been larger that) those Inany other com
pany running and maturing at the same
time.
0. Iu policies are free from restriction.
The wisest and best'men insure their
lives. Mr. Wanamaker, who carries
more insurance than any other man In
the United States, said in a letter to
agents:
“1 feel that what you did In fixing my
attention to life insurance was a positive
service to me and I thank you for It most
sincerely.”
Delays are dangerous. Money saved
by insuring at once.
