THE NEGLECT OF LIFE ASSURANCE.
THERE is no feature of our civilised life that
Tikes a thoughtful man with more force-
than the neglect of LIFE ASSURANCE. By payment of a small quarterly obscription any man of good health can secure a very large suTA to his family in case of premature death, yet hundreds of families brought up in comfort perhaps in luxury are left in extreme poverty every year from the bread winner having neglected to assure his ille. In the East many a man lives up to his income, knowing well that if death cut him off suddenly, his wife and children would be left almost wholly unprovided for, “All this can be prevented by Life Assurance.
