THE NEGLECT OF LIFE
ASSURANCE..
in splendid THERE is no feature of our civilised life that strikes a thoughtful man with more, force thun 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, yet hundreds of families brought up in comfort- perhaps in luxury-are left in extreme poverty every year from the bread winnet having neglected to assure his life. In the East maay han lives up to his income, knowing well that death cut him off suddenly, his wife and children would be left almost wholly unprovided for *All this can be prevented by Life Assurance,
