LOSS PARTIALLY COVERED
After the fire it seems a careless matter not to have
had the burned property insured for the actual replacement
cost at present prices.
Before a fire—today, for your “'building, office equip
ment, merchandise, your home and home furnishings—it
costs but little to insure on the present day replacement
values. It costs much to meet even a part of a fire loss.
If in doubt as to the amount your property can be in
sured for, not excessively but adequately, this agency will
advise you gratuitously.
Our Service is always available.
