and attempted to draw it towards him, when
the hammer caught something IN the boat and
discharged It. The ball passed through the
lungs OF the young man, and made its exit near
the spine. He died in a very short time after
the occurrence. The accident was a sad and
melancholy one, and threw a deep shade of

II IS A REMARKApIE FACT
that the mortality experienced
on large policies Of life assurance
Is less than on small ones. The
average amount of each policy
issued by the Equitable Life a 9
surance Society in 1866. was
"a l5O. while the percentage Of
losses was but 1920. An aver
age policy Of the Mutual Life for
the same period was 90, !;
percentage of loss 1894. Wash
ington, 50, 400; loss 1914. Ger
mania, $500; loss 1926. Uni
TED ., States, s9,393; loss 1927.
All these are cash companies !;
and the rates of some sixteen
note companies exhibit a similar
commentary, showing greater
mortality on small than on large
policies. The cause is attributed
to the fact that the weather
classes, who are abba to assure
for the largest amounts, enjoy
those constant comforts and SAM
tary privileges, and lead that
regular course Of life which 30
materially promotes longevity
The Equitable Life Assurance
Society issues policies on . single
life up to the amount of $4,000.
