ADVICE FROM ARP.
YOUNG MEN SHOULD INSURE TKEIE
LIVES TO BENEFIT RELATITES.
Every Young Man Could Carry Something
On His Life-Every Mau Should Pay
His Own Funeral Expenses.


fo1that would take only 50 twice a year
Al. young man could pay that much am
II died young the thousand dollars Woult
he's his mother or his wife or his sister St
NH. Funerals are expensive nowadays
III Il poor man can't afford to die unless
billie Is insured. If Il young man who is
CITING from $50 to 500 salary docs not
sgd anything for whisky or cigars 1t
cdd safely take IL policy for 5000 and
, p 81 twice Il year. II he was twenty
! ii years Old it would cost him only SD
[ sll-annually-not as much as his cigars.
-, This salary was $1oO a month he could
t ord $40 of it each month for insurance,
i Il that would carry II policy oil $4,000.

4 lhe world tor 4 young man. lie gets ii
$ cheap Now, here | am, old ana poor,
5 am carrying only 5000 on my life and
costs me $lio II year and 1t IS Il hard
ugSe to meet the premiums | began
| y I'VE years ago. Zoo late, too late. but
must hold on until whip the fight. III
alp 1t sure if l hold on, for Old Father
inc is backing me. If | had begun ut
I"cMy-onc or twenty-five the premiums
LIQUID have been about $40 and the dlvi-
lends would have paid that long before
|blS. Heard Il man say the other day that
~ plid on $4,000 for twenty years and
IioW has Il paid up policy and draws div
lEcnds on it Just like it was stock in Il
bank. | wish l had done that when l was
p young man. Wouldent it be glorious if
! had such Il document for my wife and
the girls.
But if a young man seriously objects 10
make money by dying for it let him take
out an endowment policy for twenty or
twenty-five years. 1t will cost him about
twice as much, but he can, if he lives,
walk up TO the captains office and call for
his money and do what he plcases with it.
Ii he happens to die before hand his wife
n his mother or his sister can draw it for
lim. Every Young man should take out
wo policies if he can, one for life and one
N the endowment plan---one for others and |
me for himself. 1t is a comfortable thing |
or Il man of forty-five to have Il paid up /
policy that is drawing dividends. 1t is |
still more comforting for widow or sis
er or a child to inherit both policies if he |
should die before he expected to.
Insurng ones life for the benefit of 9th
rs is the most unsefish act that a young
nan can perform. No selfish
" thou@htless young, man will
10 it. 1t is like looking death square III
hc face. but few young men will do THAT.
