Insurances.

THE NEGLECT OF LIFE ASSURANCE.

THERE is no feature of our civilised life that strikes a thoughtful man with more force than the neglect of LIFE ASSURANCE. BY of a small quarterly subscription any payment of a man of good health can secure a very large sum to his family in case of prematurs 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 All this can be prevented by Life Assurance.
