That was a most pathetic scene
when the coffin containing the body
of Naval Cadet Thomae H. Wheeler,
the youngest sod of General Joeeph
Wheeler, wae brought into Camp
Wikoffat Montauk Point, gay* the
Atlanta Journal.
In the van rode the Sixth infantry
band playing the mournful music of
the funeral dirge. Sad faoee turned
to look family upon the brave and
famous old father ae he rode behind
the coffin of’bi* dead son, bis bead
bowed in deep sorrow on his breast.
Two caissons were rolled in front of
the tent once occupied by young
Wheeler, and on these hie coffin
wrapped in a flag of silk with a golden
fringe was placed. From their tents
came General Wheeler aud his three
daughters, who slowly and sadly took
their place, by the aide of the coffin.
Joseph Wheeler, Jr., stood beside his
■ sisters.
While a quartet of the Young Men’s
Christian Association sang “Nearer
My God to Thee” a bugler in a distant
camp blew the notea of the reveille.
The aged warrior looked toward the
tents whence came the music of awak*
s’
ening life and then to those around
:V 'him Theo hie Held dropped over the
coffin of the loved aud lost one, hie
frame Quivered and in the fullness of
bia grief he subbed aloud, “My son!
My son I God help me to bear the
taking off ol my poor dead boy"’
And as the strains o' the bugler

THE LARGEST IN THE WORLD.
Since organisatjfljr to the present time, it has paid and now holds on

Its dividend record is unsurpassed by any other company m the world.
It protects your dividends in case of death and provides for your old age.
See that your policy has this clause inserted in it.
. As compound results are the source of life of all the old hue companies,
what is best for the company should be best for the insured. And for best
results take a policy in the grand old MUTUAL LIFE.
Fathers see to it that the daughter, the pride of your heart, when as

be provided with a guaranteed income ior lite. The MUTUAL LIFE, the
strongest financial institution known on the globe—twice as large as the
Bank of England—writes that guarantee. '
And to the patriotic soldier who feels called upon to avenge the wrongs
to his country, we say don’t forget the loved ones at home—the Mutual Life is
prepaied to take care of all. And for the benefit of those who have apo y
in this grand old company ,we give the following extract from a letter ot the
president, Richard A. McCurdy:
“I wish you to assure every policy-holder in this Company
that his rights will be fully protected under all circumstances
and tha no one need hesitate to respond to the call of patriot- >
ism or duty through fear of the forfeiture of his policy.
RICHARD A. MoOURDY, President.”
