INVESTIGATE EEFO IR, E TON IB XT No man ought to take a policy of LIFE INSURANCE in any company without first making that company show what dividends it is paying on the icy he is considering. If he will do this and then compare such dividends with those of the NORTHWESTERN H MUTUAL lie will make no mistake in Don’t let the Agent do all the talking and figuring, do policy nc is eoiisiueiTiig. n Lie win ao tms ana tnen compar getting the best. The Northwestern is willing to show its dividends to anybody at any time. some yourself. Ask for dividend records and don't be satisfied until you get them, then act on your own judgment. GET the BEST. You are entitled to it! U men would exercise one-tenth the care before buying Life Insurance that they do in buying stocks or bonds, they would save thousands of dol lars. The superiority of the Northwestern in reducing the cost of Life Insurance is due to the great dividends paid to policy holders. The larger the DIVIDEND the cheaper the cost of Insurance. Capt. E. J.

AWAY YONDER AHEAD OF THE OTHER. Below we print a most suggestive letter from Mr. J. Pate Stetson, Teller American National Bank, Macon, Ga. MACON, GA. December 12th, 1S98. I took a policy for §8,000 two years ago on the 20-Payment Life Plan in the NORTH WESTERN MUTUAL. The premium was §202.50. I received my first dividend last month and it amounted to §45.20. I found by using this diyidend in cash and paying ONLY §7.56 more that I could carry $2,000 more on the SAME PLAN, and I immediately applied for and have re ceived a policy tor §2,000 on the same plan, thus giving me §10,000 insurance for only $7,56 more than I was paying on the §8,000 I first took. This is certainly an excellent showing, and I am very proud of my policy in THE NORTHWESTERN. It is only fair to state that I took a policy in another company on the same plan as the one I took in The Northwestern, and The Northwestern dividend IS AWAY YONDER AHEAD OF THE OTHER. J. PATE STETSON. No other Company can show results anywhere nearly equal to the above. G IFi-A-ZEE-A-IIVC &c EDWARD J. COSTELLO, Manager Eastern Georgia Department.

The Valuable Enterprise That lias Taken the dace of a Discarded Waste—Geor gia Iron Works Ready for Business Again—Brand New and Very Latest Machinery, Carefully Selected, For General and Special Lines—Best of Workmen and Product. Augusta Herald, Aug. 11, The most important reclamation in Augusta since the river bank was made from a waste stretch into a railway route and cotton ware house district is shown at the Geor gia Iron Works site. What was a gully seemingly use less has been touched by enterprise and skill, and there is erected the l»est appointed and one of the most thoroughly equipped manufactur ing industries in the South. The investment itself was an evi dence of faith in Augusta, Made where it was made, it not only pro vided for this city an industry of h'gh merit, but it brought into use a nook of land which, it appeared, had been abandoned to disuse. The Georgia Iron Works occupy approximately five acres of land. The location is most admirable. Op portunity is given, and improved, to handle work at the minimum ol costgo realize on the best and most ample water supply; to put machin ery from the workman’s hands di rect on the railroad car or the wag on for city delivery. The marvel is that the site, being such an admir able one, has not been utilized be fore, The Works Themselves. to apoointment—manner of con duction and arrangement—and in equipment, the Georgia Iron Works approximate the perfect. The structure is almost over roomy. it is admirably ventilated. ^ is thoroughly lighted. Succeed- ’ n K the Georgia Iron Works de-~j stroyed by fire a year ago, its ma-1 chinery throughout, is necessarily 1 the very latest and best improved known to the business, and all brand new. The equipment a9 to toachinery is thorough-partieular ! y so in two lines, for the manufacture entire plants for saw mills and complete phosphate mining ma chinery, of which a specialty is made—for it must be understood- that the Georgia Iron Works is a manufactory, also doing all kinds of iron repair work. s6me of the Equipment. The foundry of the plant, at pres ent is conducted at the old site. Its place, however, is just across the branch of the second level of the canal on which llie manufactory is located, and it will be in position in a short while. The branch canal will be bridged between the iron works and the foundry. Railroad tracks run up to the plant, through it, through the foun dry and through the yard. The im mense door ot the works (24x30) permits the loading, right at the structure, of cars of any size or any carrying capacity. A first class and immense travel ing crane, reaching every portion of the works, is the best and most noticeable of the admirable equip ment. By its use the hugest kind ol a sawmill engine to the smallest bit of iron work can be removed from one portion of the works to another or to the railroad track, for loading, without the least annoy ance of trouble. Excellent Arrangements: The wheel house of the works will attract attention. Machinery of the kind employed by the works re quire steady motive power. To make the power more steady at these works it is conducted by a rope-transmitter instead of by or dinary belting, preventing belt slip ping at any time and insuring against irregularity in motive pow er, The machinery that is especially adapted to the manufacture of saw mill and phosphate mining equip ments will attract favorable atten tion, being the very best and very latest. Every thing that can be us ed in manufacture arid repair work Is provided and all of it has been carefully selected. One hundred employes, the greater per cent, of them skilled workmen, are engag ed there. The lathes and planers in the works are the newest and be3t known, and other tools are in keeping with them. These are the delight of the workmen. The me chanical equipment and the labor equipment are such as warrant the most thorough product, and this is turned out in all the departments. In Operation INow. The Georgia Iron works are now in operation. Their first order was a big out-of-town contract. The re pairing department, as well as the manufacturing department, are busy. All drawings of patterns were saved from the fire and a force of pattern-makers were put to work to replace all the destroyed patterns thus putting the establishment in readiness for business. The Georgia Iron Works would be a credit to a city ten times the size of Augusta. They are the best planned and the best equipped in the South. There are few cities anywhere that can boa^t a manu factory where a sawmill plant can be turned out wholly, quickly and perfectly. The time and expense economies at the works, the new and best of tools, the transportation facilities provided, comprehensive ness of the machinery, contemplat ing the largest jobs, and progress ive management, make the con cern desirable to deal with and in sures from it first-class output in every particular. Mr. H. C. Perkins is president of the Georgia Iron Works, Mr. J. A. Hauser is manager. Six Foot Rattler Killed. Wayckoss, Ga., Aug. 24.—Two very large rattlesnakes have been killed near here.

The Plant system section hands killed an other 6-foot rattler at Doctortown. It carried 16 rattlers. Why She Doesn’t Borrow Trouble.

Cured Of Chronic Diarrhoea After Thirty Years of Suffering. “I suffered for thirty years with diarrhoea and thought I was past being cured says John S. Halloway. of French Camp, Miss. “I had spent so much time and money and suf fered so much that 1 had given up all hopes of recovery. I was so fee ble from the effects of the diarrhoea that I could do no kind of labor, could not even travel, but by acci dent I was permitted to find a bot tle of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and after taking several bottles I am entire ly cured of that trouble. I am so pleased with the result that I am anxious that it be m reach of all who suffer as I have.” For sale by h. B. MCMaster. SURROUNDING COUNTIES, News Items From Our Neighboring Coun ty Exchanges.
