ANY middle-aged man will tell you how swiftly the years pass after forty. All too soon middle years have gone the way of youthful ones and with them middle age's opportunities. Old age approaches. Too late then to start plans for an income for declining years--thoso years when earning power is greatly reduced, or even gone,
A Manufacturers Life Endow ment Policy providing 'a necura income at age 55 or 60 or later, is within the means of the young mina of even moderate income.
