Insurance Policies.

Our answer to query concerning the
thrce-fourths clause in insurance policies
seems 20 have been misunderstood n
cities where house is insured for Its
fun value. but no more. IN case of total
loss By fire the face Of the policy is
paid In the country districts, where
there is no protectioa against ire. the
owner Of the property insured is re-
Quired TO carry ons-fonrJh Of the risk.
H. therefore. his property is insured at
fun value. in case u loss only three
fourths OF the face Of the policy is paid.
But honest agents do not insure ooun-
try property at fun value. They write
a policy FOR three-four,hs 'he value II
the property, and then. i'm ,ass OF total
loss by FIRE. the full face value or the
policy is paid.

We do not think that a preliminary ex-
