Both cotton and linen are associated with wrinkles. Linen fibers have a natural resin called lignan. At first, the fibers are stiff and crease easily. The wrinkles become smoother through handling and use. The Cotton plant yields fluffy fiber clusters called bolls.
Definition. A life insurance policy provision that calls for an additional payment, usually equal to the face amount of the insurance, in the event of accidental death. Also called double indemnity.
Accidental death and dismemberment insurance is usually supplemental to life insurance. It can be purchased as its own policy or as a rider to a life insurance policy. It often gives policyholders a percentage of their overall payout if they receive injuries from an accident that result in the loss of speech, sight or hearing, or the loss of fingers or limbs.
