OF this Company is to insure LIFE-not indeed

benefciaries Of policy when you die-thereby to
continue the exertions, Investments and benefits
Of your life to your dependents after your life is

and fostering care which his arm has furnished.
He shudders as his mental gaze looks within the
gloomy portals Of the grave and leaves behind
those whom he loved, as 5yagralts roaming the

which we now urge upon you ii your mind
were easy on this subject; II you could feel when
you "shuffle off this mortal coil" your family
were provided for, you would be relieved Of the
carking anxiety that fills every worthy mind at
such fears: you would be better prepared to pur-

Business men are considered rather improyident
who do not insure their goods and houses against
fire. Now, your house may sever be burned-it
mag stand hundred years; but your life cannot
Last so lamp Of lSe must burn ont
gainst uncertain nisfortunes to your property and
yet neglect certain event which toiu and must
come to your body. Is this consistent wisdom and
prudence? We admit and assert the prudence Of
the first but assert the greater wisdom and neees
sity for the last Ask yourself the question, are
you doing right to neglect this opportunity to pro-
vide efectually' for your family in case Of your
death, while you have 1t in your powerf And
bear in mind-now, this moment may be your last
chance death Is after you! When once bis "rug-
ged scythe shall clip the brittle thread of life" the
CHASTITY panorama Of want and suffering will be o.
pened to the signing hearts you took care Of while
you lived. Remember only while in health-be-
fore age, with attendant diseases come upon you
before you begin to loiter in sad sickness on the
verge Of the grave only while living mentally
and physically living can you obtain Life Insu-
always the final victor-and while we do not urge
this process will disarm him Of his sting, (for rei
gion only can do that) yet it will soothe your heav
ing bosom to know you have provided for your
family before that trying hour comes. By having
your life insured you "disarm the sting ofpover-
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: ooh that my husband had insur-
ed his life If he could have foreseen my lamen-
table state he would have done 80. He was kind
and good to all, and supposed that all would be
kind and good to US; but alas, how mistaken! He
provided well for us while living; but if he had
insured his life its benefits would have continued
to US now" Do not say this is fancy sketch, for
many such scene has really existed.
