Protects Isolated Property, No Salaried Officers. ,No Loss?No Expense, Speedy, Fair and Honorable Adjustment to All, Reasons Why You Should Insure Your Prop erty with the Abbeville-Greenwood mu tual Insurance Association. 1. It is an Association of th( people, for the people, and we have thoroughly demonstrated that mutaal insurance is practicable foi and by homefolks. 2. This Association insure-1 against "fire and lightning, cyclones tornadoes and wind storms," while capital companies insure against fire 3. This Association has half ?i million dollars of property insared, and since its organization has paul thirteen thousand dollars of losses at an average animal assessment o! one-half of one per cent., one-fifth of the cost of other companies,' awl not in :i single instance has it resorted to the aid of tho Courts tc collect an assessment or to adjust i loss. 4. By this plan you pay for the protection you have cnjo3Ted in the past, and if there is no loss, there isnooxpen.se; while in other com panies you pay in advance for pro ."v. tection you expect to i^et, though may not get except paid for dear]} & by legal proceedings. ' 5. This plan is a contract between neighbors; while in other companies you enter into a contract written by the compan}*, for the company and against you. You can read and understand the policy of this company. Few understand an average insurance policy. 6. Speedy, fair and honorable adjustment of all losses of property are made at assessed valuation when insured, with no three-fourths clause attached. The man who values your property is your neighwho also adjusts your loss; while in other companies, when you sustain a loss, a stranger comes and * i ? - ? i _ i J l ?i I00K8 into tne asues ana says wuai is to be paid you. 7. You can with small expense insure against fire, wind and storm, while a fire policy is about all you can afford in the old companies. You can enjoy the satisfaction of knowing that if your dwelling is burned, it is insured in an Association composed of l'riends and neighbors, who will pay every dollar at which it was valued, and not bo subject to thousand and one restrictions, imposed by other companies, more for their advantage than for the protection of the insured. The money paid out is kept at home, and every dollar goes to the loser of property, which means the upbuilding of your own county. S. Don't wait to be burned out and become a burden to your friends by having them hf.g for you, when absolute protection is yours by casting in your mite. Demonstration is a fact and co-Onernt.ion is your duty. Therefore, at once insure in tpo Abbeville-Greenwood Mutual Insurance Association.
