This Year Thou Shalt Die!
AWAHIS prophecy will certainly be fulfilled in the cases
of a number of men and women in Bartow countv
before January i 1904.
YOU MAY BE ONE OF THEM.
Look back for'one year and count the number who a year
ago had the promise of a long life, and who are now dead!
Have you any better promise now than they had then?
Are }ou insured? Have you made provision for those de
pendent on you, whose lives will be full of hardship if you neg
lect this provision? If not, delay no longer—attend to it at
once—NOW! Don’t delay. Time passes rapid'y. Regrets for
lost opportunities will not recall mem, and it will be too late
when your hour comes to grieve over your neglect and its
inevitable results. Get insured now while you are well.
Call on W. H Howard, who will insure you in a strong,
reliable old that fulfills to the letter every prom
ise. Be quick! Act now! Who knows what tomorrow has in
store for you? But, be assured of this—fate has written for
some of you who read these lines the inexorable decree—
This Year Thou Shalt Die!
