Of the Establishment of the Estate, Iioan and Insurance Agency of Andrew B. Little occurs today, May 15, 19O7. A. B. LITTLE, Real Instate.

Loan and Insurance Agent, Jefferson Building Five years ago I started in business wit.hont a dollar or previous experience, today I have one of the best agencies in the county and the finest and best equipped offices in. the. state outside of the largo cities. I own one half of the capital stock of the company which crec-, t.ed the building where my office is located which, in addition in other property in this city owned by me makes. me permanently located, in tluUuisinoss to stay and financially responsible.

'When started in business I resolved that 1 won hi faithfully, honestly and promptly attend to any and all business given the people, would appreciate my efforts to acceptably serve them. I hiive kept that resolution and will, continue to until the end and any one who is kind enough to me their patronage, can rest assured the same will receive careful and prompt attention to the minutest details. Tu my-real estate department I have propositions to meet'the needs nnd wishes of all classes of people and conditions, and.know 1 en acceptably serve my customers and save, them money. I nm able, without delay, to make any reasonable Joan on real estate, at the very lowest rates best terms and urge those, seeking loans to see me before taking action as they will find it much to then- pro fit, When it comes to insurance of ALl'j kinds, 1 acknowledge no superiors and few, if any equals, in this part of the state. When yon think of insurance think' of me and if yon will give me yonr business I will personally guarantee perfect satisfaction, dealing and honorable treatment, not let any one lend yon into the belief "that one insurance company is just as good as another." There is just as much difference between insurance 'companies ns there is between women, a'nd that is saying a good deal.

Uoar in mind that 1 absolutely nothing to do with fake schemes or propositions of whatever- kind or character Nothing but straight business goes with me all the time. I am a Notary Public and am prepared to wait on the public in service at all times. Thanking all for their kindness to me in the past and soliciting the patronage of all the people in this community, I B'LITTLE, Jefferson Buildingf. 'r tf r-TJv? 1 OFFICE OF A. B.
