If you want to sell list your prop.
erty with the agent whom you
think will do business for you most
satisfactorily-one to whom peo-
pie come to 'buy-one who adver-
tises literally, far and wide, for
customers, and treats them right
when they come, and one who will
show your property to the custom
ers.
If you want to buy, go to the
same one-he knows titles. You
want clear title.
If your property or life is not
insured you are taking chances
long ones. Most of us can't af-
ford to take them. If you can't,
go to the agent who knows the in
surance business and is RESPONSE
BILE citizen. Don't fear you won /
get the lowest rates-he don't let
business get away from him by
charging more than, others-that
would be ridiculous.
