Insurances.

THE NEGLECT OF LIFE ASSURANCE.

THERE is no feature of our civilised life that

strikes a thoughtful man with mare 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-ars left in extreme poverty every year from the bread winner baving 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.
