Putting Ont a Fire.
y EXTRA. IOWA

When trying to put out fire re-
member that one gallon Of water at
the bottom of the blaze will do more
to put it out than ten gallons at the
top. PLAY low" is the motto to follow
while fighting fire. A few gallons at
the bottom of the flames will rise in
clouds of steam when the fire is rising
and quench it. A big blaze on the lee
ward side looks fearful, but play low
with the water on the bottom Of the
fire on the windward side and you
have the speediest way to quench the
flames and will not require river.

| INSUR RANCE

We write policies in our office,
make endorsements and transfers
in companies that paid 100 cents
on the dollar in the great San
Francisco Fire. SOME INSUR-
ANCE is GOOD ALL THE
TIME. Buy a CONTINENTAL
Policy. 1t is good all the time
and costs no more than others.
You always get your moneys
worth and do not have to watch
the company TO see if it is good
the next year. We settle losses
promptly and satisfactorily. Our
policy holders who haze met with
losses are our best friends. We
are willing to leave it to them.
Ask any of them. We do business
for the companies. that have the
reputation of paying their losses
promptly and satisfactorily. Not
how cheap but how good. When
we are called upon to write pol
icy we write it in company there
is no question about when the fire
happens. We cannot afford to
stake our reputation on cheap
skate companies, for we are often
called upon to pay loss where we
never expected one would occur,
and we are expected to pay them,
and we will always look well to
the interests of our large lists of
our policy holders; guard their in
terests as we would our own if we
were in their place and they in
ours. We have spent 25 years of
the best part of our life studying
insurance and we learn every year.
We think we know how to write
policy and have it right. Write or
