the cripples in circumstances sufflcl-

care of its beneflclarles in case death
overtakes Ita members unexpectedly,
which it always does, and its old age

possible for an aged member to main
tain an indepeudent livelihood even
if all his relatives are gone. It ex

table places every roan equal in risks
and liabilities. The early deaths
imoog its members helps to pay the
policies of its older members and the
rates of the member who lives lo a
good old old age atands more of
chance ot being reduced than of being
raised and each member reels vea the
same per cent on his investment.
Instead of the early deaths taxing
the liviog members with increased
rates and double assessments as he
grow older and less able to provide
for himself they simply return the
money to them in interest.
In lees than twenty years from the
death of any benefit member the
amount of money left In the reserve
fund by him has returned in Interest
to our contingent fund and benefit
fund. All the money drawn from
those funds by the deceased member

will be there. Think oi this and
then remember that the United Art!
sans are less than tea years old and
are today the wealthiest order r

economy in money matters is what
counts in any order.
Mrs. J. A. Simmons of North

meeting with good success. No one
who wishes to carry a policy will
miss the opportunity laid before

In the one policy. No change in

Verj Remakable Care ef Diarrhoea.
"About six years ago for the first
time la my life I had a audden and
severe attack of diarrhoea," says Mrs
Ayce Miller, of Morgan Texas. "I
got temporary relief, but it came
back again and again, and for six
long years 1 nave suffered more
misery and agony than I can tell,
It was worse than death. My hus
band spend hundreds of dollars for
physicians' prescriptions and treat
meni witnout avail. Finally we
moved to Bosque county, our present
home, and one day I happened to see
an adveilisement of Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
with a testimonial of man who had
oeen cureu Dy ll. 1 tie case was so
similar to my own that I concluded
to try the remedy. The result was
wonderful. I could hardly real Ire that
I was well again, or believe It could
be so after having suffered so long,
but that one bottle of medicine, cost
ing but a few cents, cured me."

Last week ono negro, accused of an
assault on the wife of a prominent
Louisiana planter, was saved from
the grasp of a determined mob chiefly
by the t (forts of Seuator Foster, of
that state. When told that the negro
was in the jail of HI. Mary's parish,
in which the senator lived, be went
there, and awaited the Inevitable
mob. With blm were the Sheriff
and two Judges. A dispatch says:
"It was ut uiiduight when the mob
reached the Jail. Senator Foster ad
dressed its member. He told them
that the negro would be tried at once,
many years, yet no assurancea were
obtained from Hues, France and

to obtain these pledges it met , with
