SOUND INSDBANCE,
Insurance Commissioner McMaster
Gives the Abbeville-Greenwood
Company the Highest of
Praise. L
The Press and Banner asked President
Blake If Commissioner F. H. McMaster had
Investigated the hooka of tbe AbbevilleGreenwood
Mntnal Insurance Association ?
Yes, In tbe discharge of bis official duties, \
be baa paid us a visit.
Will yon kindly give ub tbe extent of tbe
Investigation and your Impression of blm as
an officer ?
I think tbe Legislature acted wlseley In its
selection. He is tbe right man intberlgbt
place?painstaking, thorough and conscientious
In tbe discharge of bis duties, and tbe
Insurance department of tbe state will oerlalnly
be Improved under blH administration.
He Investigated tbe minutest details
ot tbe office Even tbe minutes of policyholder"
meetings and tbe directors meetings
lrom 1897 to tbe present were reviewed. Thrpollcy
book and assessment book were compared
to verify tbe entries.
He said he was particularly pleated with
the make np of these books, as they were airanged
so as to contain and simplify tbe
work of four years, when tbe revaluation of
properly Is made.
Tbe cash book containing collections and
disbursements were carefully examined ut>d
reported correct.
The economlcsl HdmlDistralton of tbe company
und Its largo board of twenty-elgbt directors,
compo-tpd of one director from each
township In tbe two counties, commeuned
tbe asfocliitlon very favorably to blm, and
was greatly pleased with Its general management.
After Interviewing Mr. Blake. Mr. McMarter
whs pleased to make expresslocs like thin:
I Joond tbe books of tbe Abbevllle-Greerwond
Mutual Irsurance Association systematically
kept and the accounts oorrect. I commend
the methods of management which
am mutual In fact as well as lu name.
Tbt company is bonestly and economically
managed and deserves tbe support of tbe pecpie.
In view of tbe faot that Mr. McMaster has
found Irregularities or unbuslness like methods
In other companies, It is especially gratifying
to note tbat Mr. McMaater approves of
tbe conduct of our Insurance company. An
officer like Mr. McMaster la of Incalculable
benefit to tbe people of tbe state. Honeat,
energetlo and painstaking tbe people may
rely on bia Judgment.

Doan's Kidney Pilla cure them all. i
Mrs. Georgia Pitts, 139 Mill
Street, Laurens, S. C., says :
"I cannot say too much in _
praise of Doan's Kidney Pills.
I suffered a great deal from
dizzy headaches,constant pains
through my back and loins
and the kidneys were very irregular
in action. I was weak
and nervous and at times felt
run down that I could not do
my work. None of the many
remedies I tried helped me
and when I learned of Doan's
Kidney Pills, I procured a supply.
I took them as directed
and as a result, I am now free
from any of the above named
annoyances." .
