HERE is no feature of our civilised life that than the neglect of LIFE ASSURANCE, BY payment of a small quarterly subscription any man of good health can secure a very large sum to his, family in case of premature death, yo 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 life. In the East many 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.
