Co-Insurance
The prin

insurance is
involved in
many fire

It is vitally important; it is
genei'ally misunderstood by the
insured, and frequently disre

detriment.
What co-insurance is, why it
is used and how it works, are
set fortli in our Bulletin No. 6,
which will be sent to property

The best advertisement of a store is its own pcimcc. If satisfied
patrons spread abroad words of praise for the courteous attention which
they have received in a certain shop, its proprictois may well feel that thej
have succeeded in covering one part of their field of advertising very full.
This is one motive which actuates the proprietors ot the Chestnut Stvc-'l
Shops in olfcrinK' to ou courteous attention til all times.
TJ)ERHAPS never in the couise of

preciated the dcsii ability of owning
a Sani-Can more than during this i
cold wage whicli has swet over the ,

enameled garbage can which fits
under the kitchen table or sink and is
us attractive in appearance as any
other of your kitchen furnishings.!
Vou open it by stepping on a pedal
at the bottom. This automatically
lifts the lid and at the samo time
sprinkles the contents with a deodor

saves many chilly trips outdoors,
which means, too, that it saves many
steps. The receiver pail, which is

holds four gallon.-.. You will find the

istic of the rugs so carefully woven
by the master craftsmen of old I
Persia. And the subtle, effective col
ors are beautifully blended. Fritz &
La Rue have been waiting six months
to receive this shipment, and futule
deliveries are uncertain, so it would
be well to select now the rugs that

reason for buying early. You will
