However well prepared man may be in aspir-

If he be possessed ofa thoughtful mind and a feel
ing heart he can but look with sad forebodingst to
that finale Of his earthly career which Is to deprive
his fond wife and helpless children of that support
and fostering care which his arm has furifshed.
He shudders as his mental gaze looks within the
gloomy portals Of the grave and leaves behind
those whom he loved, as yagrants roaming the
friendless, thorny paths Of public charity Yet,
alas how many do it n when small present ont
lay would gild their troublous road with ease and
comfort, ifspent I'm Life Insurance Policy. Rea-
del, are you not liable to this sad death bed refe
tioniof the unseen trials you bequeath those you

Business men are considered rather improvident
who do not insure their goods and houses against
fire. Now, your house may neuer be burned-it
may stand a hundred years but your life cannot
last SO long--your clamp Of life ;" must burn out
some day. You argue 1t is prudent to insure a
gainst Hnee'tafp psis1ortanes toyour prope,sy and
yet neglect certain ieuent which will and mast
come to your body. Is this cosssistent wisdom and
prudeneef We admit and assert the prudence Of
the first but assert the greater wisdom and neces-
you doing right to neglect sopportunity topros
vide efectua1iy for your family in ease, OF your
death, while you have it In yonr powerf And
bear In mind-now, this moment may be your last
chance death is after you! When oncehis "rug-
CHASTITY panorama Of want and suffering will be o.
penedto the signing hearts you took care Of while
You lived. Remember on1y while in health be
fore age, with attendant diseases come upon YOU
verge Of the grave-only while living mentally
and physically living-can you obtain Life Insu-
rance Policy. Life Is o vast battle feld-death Is
always the final victor while we do not urge
this process will dsarm him of his sting flor re1i-
gion only can do that) yet it win soothe your hesy-
ing bosom to know you have provided for your
family before that trying hour comes. By having
your life INSURED You "disarm the sting'' fpover-
ty and want to them. We imagine now we hear
the wall of suffering from some lone widow, while
she examines the merits of this business, as her
shivering group stand around her scanty fire and
cry for bread: "Oh that my husband had insur-
ed his life If he could have foreseen my lamen-
table state he would have done 30. He was kind
and good to all, and supposed that air would be
kind and good to us but alas, how mistaken ifHe
provided well for us while living but II he had
insured his life, its benefits would have continued
to us now" Do not say this Ia fancy sketch, for
many such scene has really existed. =
