Insurances.
THE NEGLECT OF LIFE ASSURANCE,
THERE is no feature of our civilised ilfe that
strikes a thoughtful man with more force than the neglect of LIFE A.SURANCE. 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 cou-fort- perhaps in luxury-are left in extreme poverty every year from the bread winner, baving heglected 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.
EVERY FACILITY In connection with Life Assurance Business is afforded by
THE STANDARD LIFE OFFICE, ope of the largest and wealthiest of the Provident Institutions of the United Kingdom. Forms of application and all information will be promptly afforded on application to any of the Standard Company's Agents, or to
