One of the most important fac

of insurance experts that the prop

munity is protected against home
and industrial losses.
How many times have you read
an account of a disastrous fire with
the notation “no insurance.” which
means that some man has suffered
a great financial loss that could
have been avoided had he consulted

pleased, but also surprised at the
extraordinary mileage obtained. You
don’t need to take either the deal

their superiority. Ask anyone who
uses their tires and you will learn
they stand up wonderfully under
the most grueling tests. Try them
yourself and you will be convinced
that they can not be equaled.
It can readily be seen that this
is one of the most important fea

Doctorm Disagree
When children are irritable and
peevish, grind their teeth, and sleep
restlessfy, have digestive pains and di3-
turbances, lack of appetite, and have
itching eyes, nose and fingers, doctors
will not always agree that they are suf
fering from worms. Many mothers, too,
will not believe that their carefully
brought up children can have worm 3.
The fact remains that these symptoms
will yield, in a great majority of cases,
to a few doses of White s Cream Ver

and pin worms. If your child has any
