The couple were married and
traveled to the lakes for their hon

they took a row out upon the lake.
The following morning the bride’s
mother got a postcard, which read:
"Arrived safely. Grand row be
fore supper.”
"My!” she mnttered, “I didn’t think
they’d begin quarreling so soon.’’ —
The Watchman-Examiner.

“every time you are naughty, I get
another gray hair.”
•‘My word!” replied Bertie, “you
must have been a terror. Look at
grandpa!”—Pittsburg Post.

Who Needs the Automobile Accident Policy?
EVERYBODY
The automobile is the most deadly hazard of modern life. Last
year it killed 14,000 people—a city in itself—jand injured a million and
a half more.
One car out of every hundred is literally a death-trap—it will kill
somebody before it reaches the junk pile.
More than twelve million automobiles in the United States and
the number is increasing yearly.
Automobile accidents are increasing faster than the number of
machines.
1,400,000 people in the United States suffered non-fatal injuries
from automobiles last year.
$280,000*000.00 si estimated as the annual economic loss from deaths
and injuries caused by motor accidents.
This danger is increasing every day —and the Automobile Accident
Policy is the best and most specific protection against it and the
cheapest.
