ASSURANCE.
HERE is no feature of our civilised life that strikes a thoughtful man with more force 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, 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 life. 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.
