SE?: The Northwestern Mutual life Insurance Cos. Generally. .
I take pleasure in announcing that Mr. E. W. Rose has been appointed General Special Agent of
the Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company for Barnesville and contiguous territory. Mr.
Rose needs no introduction at our hands as he is well known in this section, as well as throughout
the State, as a man of high standing, morally and intellectually, and his ripe experience and thorough
acquaintance with, and knowledge of, the people of all classes render him peculiarly fitted for the
duties of his new position. .
We bespeak for him that success which earnest, honest effort and fair-dealing will surely bring
and ask for him the co-operation and assistance of our friends and policy-holders in his work for the
Company he represents.
It* is no disparagement of the agents' of the other companies to* say that the representa
tives of the Northwestern Mutual are as a rule, both competent and reliable and Mr. Rose is no ex
ception to this rule. Competency and reliability are two essential factors in the conduct of the
life insurance business. An honest Life Insurance Agent of an honest Life Insurance Company is a
public benefactor and is entitled to the respect of every one. No business today stands higher in
dignity and commercial, as well as general, importance than that of Life Insurance. It has steadily
grown in the estimation and confidence of the business and financial public until it ranks side by side
with banking, railroad and other great similar interests which are so closely allied with and necessary
to the life of the business world.
The man today who ignores the great benefits of Life insurance is not in touch with progress, and
those who fail to take advantage of it to the fullest possible extent are not only making a busmes mis
take but leaving a duty undone. Down through the mighty tide of time the business of Life Insurance
has been steadily pushing its way and enlarging its usefulness tili it has touched with its protective
wings, all classes of people —from the capitalist who carries his hundreds of thousands to the modest
working man who protects liis little home and family with a SIOOO policy.
Among the great Life Insurances Companies of the country stands the Northwestern
Mutual Life Insurance Company. Its record as a purely American company—con
fining its business to this country alone —has never been equalled. It is the largest purely American
company and one of the strongest in the world.
A Fine Record —If 9 record ill this territory is a splendid one. It numbers its policy
holders by the hundreds and they value their policies highly. Since our connection with the company
it has paid in this territorry nearly SIOO,OOO in death losses, and has paid them without a hitch
or hinderance. It has an hanorable record of fair-dealing. We ar>' proud of this record and we want
to assure our policy-holders that we appreciate their patronage and hope, by courteous treatment and
honest dealing, to continue to deserve and receive their patronage and their confidence.
The Noithwestern is your company and we want yeu to feel that way, and to know that we
stand ready at all times, to give you any information in our power concerning your policies and to
assist you in any wav that we can.
Speak a Good Word For US— We want to add the name of every insurable man in this
territory to our policy-holder’s list. If you want the best policy in the best company, we have i* and
all we ask is a chance to show it to you. /•
Mr. Rose will be glad to furnish figures for ail and will answer any inquiry of whatever nature.
I hope to shake hands with every policy holder in the district before long, and I hope that 'many
of them will be new ones. Again thanking our old friends for their patronage as well us for their good
wishes often exoressed for me personally and as a representative for the company.
I am Sincerely, Thad E. Murphey, Manager.

Spring
Fashions.
SACK COATS are always in
good form. This spring fashion
decrees that they shall be made
with a slight tendency to full
straight hanging hacks, with
good, broad shoulder effect.
The sleeves are out. large at the
shoulder and the padding ex
tends out into the sleeve-tops,
which combination produces a
large, broad shoulder effect.
The average length of sack
coats is 28-inches.
The vest is made to open a
little lower than last season.
Trousers will he made more
shapely than of late, and the
bottoms are shaped to produce
a slight spring effect over the
instep. The average size of the
knee is 18 inches and the bot
tom 17.
Double-Breasted Vests in
fancy silk and white duck will
be very popular.

Stern individuality combined
with Parisian modes will he the
main spring of our millinery busi
ness for this season.
No expense has been spared to
make our spring showing the most
artistic ever known in the history
of our store. We could cut the
ribbon a little short —we could
make the hat a little smaller —we
could take out a little here and
there and make a saving of no
telling how much, hut we* do not
even want to know how much the
saving would he. We make the
kind of hats and bonnets that are
just alike —except different.
