before Spring comes on us. It
the city fathers would make an
inspection of the city they would

the only way to keep disease off

on. There are a number of places
in Elizabeth City that need
attention. Be up and stirring,
city dads, before some disease of
some kind gets among us.

yer, ihis is pnrelv a home co
operation plan of fire insurance
for detached or farm property
at actual cost. The plan has
given great satisfaction to the
people throughout North Caro
lina, where it has been operated.
A policy-fee of socts. on the S roo
valuation, gives each member a
perpetual policy with no further
cost, unless there be actual fire
loss in the 3ranch of which he
is a member. The assessments
have been for the last 50 years
actually less than a man would
give his neighbor without any
insurance. Let it be remem
bered we insure no parties, only
those who are recommended
and endorsed by the township
supervisor ; and further, no prop
erty is insured for more than
ot its actual cash value, aud no
lazardous risk taken.
