Not one of his acquaint ances bad ever heard him mention parents, or other relatives, or, as a matter of fact, knew anything about him save that he was good com- pany. Nobody suspected that the sud den demise of Graeme Sutherland was @ hoax-—nobody but Crewe. ‘There were only two persons who manifested more than commonplace interest in his supposed death; they were Cora Denningham's father and @ lawyer from downtown, who stat ed—and proved it—that he had been duty and legally selected to take en- tire charge of Mr. Sutherland's af- fairs after death.

Our mutual company is furnishing us real service and its assistance in helping us to fight fires we believe to be worth even more than the divi- dend we have received. “Insurance that protects against having a fire is worth much more than insurance which merely pays the loss when it occurs. “Until we were converted to the mutual idea we did not believe it possible that our employes could be- come so generally interested in fire prevention. they seem to realize that a fire loss to us means a real loss to them also. x * Incidents like this are applicable to many an institu- tion after it has adopted the service of the Northwestern _ Thousands, from the smallest to the largest, are bene- fiting by Northwestern Mutual Insurance. x * Mutual Fire Association.
