The hoppers are doing a lot of damage in different parts of the county.

The Guarantee Fund Life Association This is a clay and an age when few men, be they slnple or married, think of going through life without carrying insurance in some amount. It is also a day and age when insurance is offered on almost any plan conceivable and it is not an easy task to figure out just what line Is the best to carry or Just what company offers the best for the money. This latter question is un doubtedly the most Important one to consider. Millions of insurance Is now carried in the old line, stable companies whose reputations for square dealing and prompt payment of claims is not questioned, yet these same companies have been furnishing their protection at a cost too great to the policy hold er; In other words they have been building up excessive profits for their stock holders and the policy holder hag not got returns he was entitled to for the money invested. The simple statement of the matter 1b, that the insurance is costing too much. If the same protection can be given in a good sound company at practically a 50 per cent saving in cost, it would seem to be business to investigate this company and if you want insurance, get one of its policies. The (iunrttntre Fund Life of Omaha, Nebraska, has been doing a line of bus iness in this county tor some weeks past. It is represented here by Messrs. Klees & Notson, who during the past two months have written $86,000,011 worth of insurance that is divided amongst some 32 different policy hold ers, all representative men of this sec tion, and a line of preferred risks. This company presents a sound, com mon sense, economical plan of iitnur anee; It is a well-managed companv and is growing rapidly. In its home state, Nebraska, the Company and lis management is endorsed bv 200 bank ers, who are policy holders, and the leading business men patronize it rnd give The (.uiirnn(c Fund Mfe their strongest commendation. This company is well worth investi gating. Messrs. Klees & Notson are courteous and considerate in nresent ing the claims of their company and will not bore you with a long storv; It takes but a very short time to uive you the plan of insurance and their kiridlv manner in presenting the (.iinri.iK,-,-Fund Life AttKoclntion is one that we can heartily recommend.
