We SMiritedl to Wm Assdts WjRITE tosiuiirsiinicDe IP NEAR LYT WO MILLGON D Maims On the 25th day of September, just one week ago last Thursday, Ne braska's New, Home Insurance Company started writing fire, tornado, hail, and automobile insurance. And this start of actual business was made with assets which total nearly $2,000,000. This huge amount was invested in the company in the trifle over four months since our organization. Already we have established over 300 agencies throughout Nebraska and Iowa. The business is pouring in. Remarkable success is ahead. 1 i a i j a ...r a .... e j.'-ii7:ii rC-j m. cm oe ci J v Limiiea Amount or vur jiock vvm uucrcu ai i juarcj auu uic Remaining issue win oe ooia at qiou a anare. A limited amount of stock is offered, today, at $125 a share. The balance will be sold at $150! There is not a dollar's worth of "promotion stock" in the company. Every share is "voting stock" and participates in all profits. Over 200 bankers and insurance agents are TODAY stockholders in the company. The amount to be sold at $125 a share is LIMITED, remember! 1 : The Tremendously Increased Demand Vast Profits in the Insurance Business Tho NATIONAL AMERICAN FIRE INSURANCE COMPANY it or ganized to meet the tremendously increasing demand for insurance. Some idea of the increase may be had from the figures following; re ports show that $520,000,000 was paid to FOREIGN companies during the past five years. Nearly one-half of this huge sum went to Austrian, German and Bulgarian companies. And these outlets are no longer open. American companies. MUST handle the business. Yet this de mand is but a part of the increase in Insurance. Millions of dollars in fire insurance premiums went out of this state in 1918. A good strong home company WILL keep most of that business in the State. ' Some ides of the profit! to be won in legitimate, straight-forward insurance buaineis may be had from the figures quoted below (taken from leading InsuranceJournals). We do not rive . them to INFLUENCE YOU; merely that you may see and judge for yourself. The men head ing THIS company are men who have made remarkable success with these old, established companies. .

Investigate and see what the fire insurance companies tiave done and you will see why, within a reasonable length of time, the stock of this company should be worth $500.00 per share, and still increase in value, as the business of the company increases. . A Sound, Safe Investment The premium income of every successful fir insurance company is large enough to pay losses, all expenses and ample profits to stockhold ers besides. 'The law secures the Investment and with strong .hands shields the interest of all concerned. No business paying similar profits' is saf guarded with equal certainty. Thus, as a stockholder, you pay no fire losses, and no company expenses; these, together with the divi-. dends on your stock, come out of the premiums of the policyholders. The state sees that the company's capital which you helped to furnish, is kept intact. The law of the state compels the company to invest every dollar of its assets in first mortgages, municipal, county, state or United States bonds, and the capital stock as invested must be held intact for ever. ' , ' , V, And every requirement of state and national laws has been met by this company.
