The Home Benefit
Enters Red River Co.
The Home Benefit, Lamar's own
mutual aid, of which the county is
justly proud, is, owing to a recent act
of the legislature, now enabled to ex-
ted their field of usefulness and serv-
ice to the people of Red River county.
This Is the association at Paris
which within the short space of a lit-
tle over two years has written nearly
two million dollars worth of life in-
surance for its members. There is a
reason for its popularity at home.
Last year the actual cost to members
of their Group No. 1 policy which is
worth a full $1,000, was only $6.30.
Figure for yourself how much the
Home Benefit la saving the people of
Lamar county on their insurance. No
wonder that the most prominent bank-
ers, lawyers, doctors and business men
carry policies with them and endorse
the association so highly.
They can insure people of good
health from ages of one to sixty-eight,
having five separate classes to accom-
modate the various ages. The age de-
termines which class a person goes
in. If you want the cheapest insur-
ance to be had on either, baby, child,
husband or wife, grandfather or
grandmother, see Mr. C. H. Humph
reys, special agent at the J. C. Bar-
ton drug store, Clarksvllle, or write
or call at the Home Benefit office,
308 First National Bank Building,
Paris. No red tape. Prompt pay-
ment of claims, usually before funeral.
