NINE OBJECTIONS TO LIFE INSURANCE ANSWERED.
 Oejection-I cannot afford to insure my life.
 Answsr-Forty-fi y-five cents week will insure $1 ,OO0 on the life of man aged 30. Is the ul- timate fate of your wife and family matter of such perfect indifference to you as not to call for a sacrifice amounting to even less than half dollar weekf And if, with your present income, you are unable to make such provis- ion for them, how will they bear the double bereavement when left without you and with out your income?
 OT.-1 can make better in yestment for the benefit of my wife and family. fs N' II Ans-There is no way in which small sun of money can be so proftably and securely in vested, for such purpose, as in policy on your life /; because the payment of single pre- mium secures, and at once, q very much larger sum than the investment ot the same amount could possibly do in the ordinary operations of trade. Besides securing sum in this way does not, in the least, interfere with your endeavors to accumulate in any other way you may de sire.
 OG.-I have sufficient already, and do not need need it.
 Ans.-Thousands of others have thought sim ilarly, and yet, dying, have left their families in want.

OT.-I do not need it, having neither wife, family, or dependent relations.

The Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York, will issue you policy, payable to yourself at the age of 40, 45, 50, 55, 50. or 65, or to your heirs, in case you die before attaining that age. The sum thus secured invested n an annuity, will afford you comfortable support in your old age. Such policy combines the advanta- ges of safe and profitable in vestment for your own benefit, payable at time when it will probably be most acceptable, with certain provision for your family in case of your preyi ous death.
 OT.-It must be poor investment for me, as the company makes money by insuring my life.

 ObtI am too old it will cost too much.
 Ans.-If the duty be one that you feel .yo, ought to perform, the only way to meetlth' case is to insure for less amount than yol would if you were younger. The rate of pre- mium is in exact proportion to the increase O risk, and admonishes you to no longer delay the performance of duty so important tt those dependent on you.
