WHAT DOES IT MEAN 1?
The Meaning Of Insurance is to In
demnify for Something That is Lost.
Are You Sure Your Company
Can Do This?

Is 1t not as essential to know
that the company promising this
indemnity Is as sound and solvent
as a person signing a note or
other obligation?
A fire not only destroys your
property, but at the same time
throws you out of your home or
your business.
We never have lost a company by
failure, in q business of twenty
years experience. Never had a
company make an assessment.
Yet in past twenty years more
than half the companies allowed
to transact business in Maine
have failed or gone out of bust
ness, Companies are dropping
out nearly every month.
Is 1t not for your interest,
financially, to get the best, when
their rates are no higher than
the poorestP
Kindly ponder these inquiries,
and say II they are not good bust
ness sense. Then secure policy

So : Nnl1. Don,t plck II Up.

Mr. William Garrett made recently
the statement that wire nails are now
sold so cheaply that if carpenter drops
a mai it is cheaper to let it lie than to
stoop and pick it up, and it is claimed
that one key ont of five is never used,
but goes TO waste. A statistieian fgur-
ing this out, and assuming that it takes
a carpenter ten seconds to pick mp
nail, and that his time is worth 80 cen
an hour, remarks that the recovery OF
the nail he has dropped would cost .0S3
cents. The money value of the nail is
0077 cents--that is, it would not pay
TO pick up ten nails if it took ten sec
onds of time worth 80 cents an hour.
Ordinary men who are not very quick
can, however, pick up nail on mod
erately clean floor in five seconds. As
Stunning that this is a better average than
the ten seconds. and that we are paying
the carpenter only % cents an hour, it
will still cost to recover the nail .0347
cents, which is nearly five times the
value of an individual nail. There is
therefore q considerable factor of safety
in the original calculation, and we are
bound to believe that it will not pay to
pick upnaiIs Such calculation brings
ont clearly the marvellous reduction in
prices due to inventive genius. The
lurking fallacy is that while it may not
pay TO stoop for each nail it still may
be worth while for an economical man
at the end of his work to stoop down
once and sweep up in a single handful
the nails he has been dropping all day.
