The weather te-aau : Clear.
Some workmen .at the
bench were talking about
shoes the other day.
Perhaps you are the one
who said “Howlandis shoes
are the best in quality but his
prices are high,” then you
weakened it by saying you had
“never been in his store.”
If so, you had the right
idea as to the quality of my
shoes. I intend to have the
best; Ido more than that, I
intend to have the best. at
every comparative price.
I want your opinion on the
matter-«after looking at my
shoes. We are glad to see
you, glad to show you, don’t
tease you to buy.

SOME UNPREJUDICED, 5
Evidence Concerning the Treat-f
ment of Policy Holders of the
Connecticut Indemnity
Association.
‘ NORWALK, CONN.. Nov._17th, 1891.
The Connecticut Indemnity Ascocia- :
tion, Waterbury, Conn.
GENTLEMENz—Your agent, G. A.
' Franke, having just handed’ me a New 5
York di'aftf01'35368.57, Iwish to publicly {
thank you for your promptness and;
square dealing. I am satisfied from 3
my experience with you that since II
was insured for five thousand dollars,
with weekly accident benefits of twenty :
dollars in 1889, that your company al-
ways will act for the best interests of 5
its policy holders.
Your ready payment of my .claim for
eighteen weeks and three days 0011- 3
firms my good opinion of you. '
Wishing you the success that you so l
well deserve, I remain :
Very truly yours,
( Signed) No. W. BANKS.
NEW HAvEN, CONN., Dec. 6th, 1890.
, GENTLEMEN z—Letm e thank you most a
sincerely for your promptness in pay-
ing me my claim of $1,000 on the policy .
issued to my late husband,Isaac Watts.
I shall always bless the day that he in-
sured his life in your company. You
have done me a great favor by paying
the claim before it was due. My hus-
band had only paid in $97.76, and I
have received such great benefit.
Yours very gratefully,
(Signed) SARAH A. WATTS.
PROVIDENCE, R. 1., Jan. 24, 1891.
TheOonnecticat Indemnity Association: '
Let me thank you for your prompt j
and courteous treatment. Mr. W. A. '
Armstrong formerly of Norwicli,Conn.,
was insured in your company more
than six years ago, and the entire cost
to him, at the age of 58, to carry $1,000
insurance, providing 9,35 per week in
case of disability, was only $101.75, or
$16.40 per year. Deducting the bene-
fits paid him during his life, the net
cost of his $1,000 insurance was only
$11.75. This money will prove a great
help to me. Had he invested the same
money in the savings bank, 110 would
have realized nothing during his disa-
bility, and would have left me only
$113.,16,instead of the $1,000 at death. ’
Old line companies would have paid
but $303 insurance for the money paid
to your company by my husband.
( Signed) ELIZABETH ARMSTRONG.
DANBURY,CONN., June 10, 1891.
I thank you most sincerely for your
very prompt payment of the insurance
money due under policy 921,0n my late '
husband, J. Beardsley. He had been
insured in your company since 1884, .
and had always found you generous '
and» reliable in your dealings with him
as a policy-holder. My thanks are es-
pecially due your company, because,
although Mr. Beardsley, while tempo—
rarily deranged, committed suicide,
still you in no respect questioned the
validity of my claim. The payment
was not due me by the terms of the
policy till August 27th. You have paid
me seventydays in advance.
MRS EMILY BEARDSLEY.
