The importance and popularity of life insurance is growing daily In this country. Few are their umfadays who have not taken out a policy in some company. But the rates charged by regular companies are too high, the premium Is too large for many a man to pay out at one time, and to meet the wants of this class the Mutual Benefit Society of Pennsylvania was formed, with its principal office at Allentown. Its officers are all men of high etanding, and will contribute their efforts to insuring its success. No fear need be felt of mismanagement bore. It is purely mutual, the stockholders vote at all eleC lions and they can have the affairs of the society under their immediate supervision. Brary man of family, whether piressing a family or not, should send to William 11. Deshler, Secretary, for circular.

Cassel of Slatlngton, has been appointed Assistant Assessor for the Second Internal Revenue Collection Dis trict of Lehigh County. `7 LAST WERE experienced the most rapid growing weather we ever remember. Its effect was partic ularly noticeable upon the corn, which shot up from the ground as if by magic. NEW SCHEDDLE.—The Summer . arrange ment for passenger trains on the North Pennsyl vania Railroad went Into effect on Tuesday. The afternoon down train, via Lehigh and Susque hanna Railroad, leaves Allentown at 2.07 instead of 2.27, and Bethlehem at 2:25, arriving in Phila delphia at 4:45. If the company had made it ar rive in the city 15 minutes earlier, which they could have done without subjecting the passengers to the dangers of very fast running, it would have been much more satisfactory to their patrons. EVERY REPUBLICAN throughout tho county should send us all the items of Interest occurring in his particular neighborhood. With this assis tance from our friends, we can build up a paper that will be taken in every household, and our sphere of usefulness will be enlarged. Where we are unable to get the news In any otherr,firay, we are willing to pay for lt. , We ask this from the young men. To their exertions the people look for the power which will revolutionize the county politically ; and as they arc the ones to be bone fitted more materially than any others, we ask them to lend us a hand.
