A Policy Of The Equitable Life AS.
suranoe Society is Better Than a
Deposit in any Savings Bank,
Some time ago there appeared in a
popular New York paper question
from correspondent living in the South,
in which the writer asked the advice of
she editor as to the expediency or pro-
priety of getting his life insured. He
stated that he lived ON a salary, that he
had wife and child, and that he could
easily support them if life should be
spared: but that he was sometimes dis
tressed with the thought that he might
DO taken away by death prematurely,
and leave them destitute. He further
stated III the letter that he could easily
spare enough out of his salary to carry
: life policy of $4,000; and he desired
70 know whether it would be better to
purchase a life policy, or to invest a
small sum annually in some other way
for the benefit Of his family.
The answer to this anxious Young
Ausbandl and father, published by the
editor of the paper, was against Life
Insurance. 1t advised the correspor
dent to deposit annually in a Savings
Bank the sums which would nav the
premiums of policy for $4,000, and
let the interest accumulate.
The young man followed this advice
Itso happened that after he had mad,
one deposit of $500 he died, leaving
young widow and child. The three hun
bred dollars paid the doctors bill an,
funeral expenses. sBut the widow an,
babe were left destitute of everything
whereas they would have received TE,
THOUSAND DOLLARS if the husban,
lad not followed that disastrous advice
