be deprived of it in the event of NV death,
Lastly, renew my policy because of the
uncertain tenure l hold upon life. | have
heard many man say, y am in good
health now and in no danger of diving, SO
can insure myself but how often have
seen the widow and children of such men
left to depend upon their own resources or
the charity of cold and unfeeling world.
The reasoning of such men is folly. and |
will not initiate it. True wisdom. true
honor, true manhood consist in making
certain provisions for the future possible
needs of mans loved ones, while it IS
within his power to do so, and shall take
no chances when l can so easily avoid it bv
paying my premium promptly and keeping
my policy in force. The present is given
me SO that can provide for the future, and
/, indeed, would be foolish not to do so,
when the financially strong life insurance
company that has issued this policy is
ready to take the risk off my hands for a
comparatively small consideration.
After these reflections have decided that
| will not give up this policy to 90 into
another company; will continue this one
because am sure of it, and take more in
surdnce as fast as | am able, either in this
or some other regular life insurance COM
pany. CD.
The past fifty years have witnessed re-
and from comparative ignorance of it in
lo4O its principles have come to be so well
understood that to-day nearly every bust
ness man carries more or less insurance
Men Of means long since began to recognize
the fact that their lives have money value
Just as truly as their real or personal es-
tate, and that this value needs protection
Just as much in the one case as in the other
And this proposition is true also of the
wage-wOrker. However obscure or humble
he may be, his life has money value TO his
family, and should be covered by insurance
TO the extent OF that value. A proper ad-
Justment OF this question to the necessities
OF the case would be perhaps that every
man should carry sufficient life insurance
that IN the event of his death would invest
ed at current rates of interest realize an
amount equal to his income. This would
be an equitable solution of the case. and
the attainment Of such an end ought to be
every man 5 aim. As matter of course.
there are many who could not set aside
enough money every year TO enable them to
carry 50 much life insurance, and such men
ought TO get as near 10 ii as possible In
order to accomplish it, it may be necessary
10 forego some luxuries. but what are such
sacrifices TO men who have an unSeliish
love for their families and are seeking to
provide for their future needs! And there
Is no chance or uncertainty in such invest
mentS. Money invested in u life insurance
policy IS certain to accomplish the object
aimed at, and that object can be obtained
IN no easier or better way. Life insurance.
then, should commend itself TO every man
rich or poor, and Is worth everones CON
Sideration.
