Something worth Knowing


A FEW weeks ago, Cyrus ". Field,
ESQ, remarked to an agent OF the
Equitable, who had been about per-
seVerIng in endeavOring to insure his
life as he Mr.. Field) had been laying
the cable, 81 do not believe life insu-
rance a profitable investment for long
SO, 900 tor twelty-four years, and have
paid in more premiums and interests
than nv family would receive were /
20 die now, AN sure" "Let us ser,
says the agent. The policy was pro-
duced, with the dividend additions,
and calculation was made by the
agent, the result showing that, should
he die alter having the insurance for
twenty four years, his family would re-
cPiVe more than SiE thousand dollars
over and above all premiums paid, with
compound interest added at six per cent.
The result seemed so incredible, that be
thoroughly investigated it hImself, and
finding the calculations correct, increas-
I'd his insurance to one hundred th09ts-
and, dollars, taking SIC, 600 in the Equi-
table, and policies of $4,000 eaca in
seven other companies, all OF which are
purely mutual.
