THE NEGLECT OF LIFE 'ASSURANCE.
T`HERE is no feature of our civilised life that
TH
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 cần 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:
