This demonstration of health having been made, we have the farther fact that these men have found onr conntry to be responsive to their labor, and that they have made abundant crops, lived well and enjoyed the perennial sun shine of the south. It is pleasing to be able to announce these demonstrated facts, notwithstandi iug the opikisition which western rail road interests have given to the south ward movement. From now on we may expect a steady flow of the best kind of immigration from the states of the north and west.

It is the pioneer of stuck rate insurance by which plan the insured pays only for what he pets. Their plan eliminates all cements of-gambling. The insured does not betonpro bable earnings of the company for a period of io, 15 or 20 years as the case may be, nor does he bet that he will outlive that period to realize the estimated profits or accumulations. Their policies have expended insurance, paid up cash sur render and loan values; are incontestable after two vears, and nonforfeitable after three years from the date of issue. All these features are guaranteed and distinctly printed in each policy. They deal not in estimates but guarantees. Their premium rate is from 2o to 35 per cent, less than the old line companies.
