No Precaution is Equal
to the Protection of
INSURANCE
Some people think that INSURANCE is money
wasted. After the fire they bemoan the fact that
they were not insured .
Precaution against fire is always commendable,
but INSUANCE is the essence of wisdom.
The cost of insurance is so small as to be negligi
ble. Its value is only fully realized by those who
have been burned out and had no insurance to make
good the loss.
When shall we talk to you?'
