WORTH CONSIDERING.

Unthinking people often make re-
marks, which, by popular error, are
perpetuated. and finally become a COM
mon saying; and ytt these sayings do
not contain the entire truth. Now. it
is a popular error, when speaking OF
life insurance companies, to say, "Oh,
they are all alike They all pay" That
is true, yet untrue: they all pay. but
are not alike The Equitable Life is
now, and always has been. unlike any
other company. except that it charges
the same rates for the same kind Of
policy: but here the likeness ceases.
The Equitable furnishes the strongest
protection by reason Of having the larg-
est surplus above liabilities Of any COM
pany in existence. 1t makes the best
return to its living policy holders, by
reason of it's superior management, and
is always first to pay claims OF de-
ceased policy-holders, and this is its
strong point. as money is most needed
when the breadwinner is gone. l. Sam

dent agent, Astoria, Or.
