kRINCIPAL OFFICE AT ALTON, ILL. 



XT This company was chartered in 1889, and insures, at a 

 moderate cost, almost every species of property in Illinois 

 against Loss or Damage by Fire. The rates of risk arg so ar- 

 ranged that each class of property insured will support its own 

 loss. 



Every one insured becomes a member — the Company be- 

 ing an association of customers — each of whom is concerned in 

 insuring his neighbor. The capital augments in exact ratio 

 with the increase of risks; the security for which remains in 

 the liands of the insured; therefore, every member is the trea- 

 surer of his own money until the same is required for the pur- 

 pose of paying losses.

RON AMALGAM BELLS .— 



We take pleasure in directing the attention of those in- 

 terested to the annexed PRICE LIST of our cheap and su- 

 perior Church, School, Steamboat and Farm Bella, which. It 

 will be observed, are offered at about one-third as much as 

 is charged for those of like weights of brass composition, and 

 less than half the price of steel. 



These Bells are manufactured from an Amalgam, cont^n- 

 ing a liberal proportion of iron, and which, while it is much 

 cheaper than the compositions heretofore employed for the 

 same purpose, yet seems to possess strength, durability, and 

 immunity from fracture during frosty weather, equal, if not 

 superior to the latter. 



Having had our sets of patterns renewed, and entirely re- 

 constructed after approved models, we feel assured of afford- 

 ing satisfaction in all cases where parties are pleased to favor 

 us with their orders.
