WHAT WOULD YOU NOT DO FOR YOUR LOVED ONES RS NO WRITER EVER WROTE SUCH A GRUESOME TALE AS THIS {3 ; i WITH THESE § i FACTS BEFORE i p YOU, WHAT ARE i i YOU GOING i - TO DO The welfare of your family may depend on whether or not you Take Advantage of This Opportunity The writer weaves his tale---strange, sensational, almost impossible and yet the weirdest stories of fiction are but the truth touched by genius. The author’s passing fancy conjured from the depths of his imagination holds no theme that is not surpassed in actual life. And sometimes we, struggling and striving for gold, become discouraged in our effort to getahead. Yet let one of our loved ones be in danger and we willingly give all we have and all we can mortgage in our blind efforts to save them. Indeed—Truth is stranger than fiction, love is greater than gold, but too often we do not realize it until too late. Fiction would indeed seem but a fabrication of lies were it to tell such a tale as this. More than 8,000 persons killed each year in Railroad accidents—14,000 persons killed each year by automobiles or more than 1,166 every month, 269 every week, 38 every day—57 automobile accidents occur every. hour,. 1,370 every day, 500,000 every year.. And strange as it may seem this is not fiction but actual facts baged on the most careful statistics. And this tollaterrible as it is, does not give all the casualties resulting from travel accidents. 4 If you knew that you were to be one of the next misfortunates surely not all the gold you possess, nor all you could borrow could keep you from making provision for your loved ones, Their welfare is really what you are working for. . Then- realize the truth—know your danger—provide for your loved ones now while you can at practically no cost under the plan provided by this newspaper. i The Bemidji Pioneer Offers Every Old as Well asv Every New Subscriber Between the Ages of 16 and 70 a $1000.00 Travel Accident Policy FOR THE SMALL COST OF 75c A YEAR \ Here is thé brnteétiot‘nv You Get Under a Pioneer Policy: (Reprinted frqi‘l’oiicy contracted for by the 'Bemidji Pioneer) THE NORTH AMERICAN ACCIDENT INSURANCE Co.
