"A Parable
of Old-~

Perhaps you have forgotten the par
ablo OF the foolish virgins. These
young women, so runs the ancient
tale. were expecting visitor, but they
| neglected to MI their lamps, and 10,
| when darkness and the guest came
| together they We're much put out, It's
an old story, but there is another lust
about as old and we see It in the news
papers nearly every day 1t usually
runs something like this:
Died. John Doe. at his home In
| Careless Park. He leaves a family TO
mourn the loss of loving husband
and father, and II Is a matter OF re-
gret that his business affairs are In n
very unsatisfactory condition. He
left no insurance"
Isn't that a cheerful story? What
/ about his family-will his wife and
children 20 back TO the old folks
and be burden TO them, or
will they become objects of public
charity? Not a pleasant picture
Is II? But such things happen
every day. Too many men are care
less or Indifferent about such things
they put II Off or take out a small
policy and let It lapse. They are not
going 10 die-of course not-and busi-
ness is good-no hard times or bad
luck In sight. That's the old, old
story.
Don't you think it's about time 10
get out OF that rut and take out n
Gold Debenture Policy In the Eauit-
able-a policy as good as "A government
bond, and which pays better rate OF
INTEREST," Think II over; there is a
surplus OF more than 66.o00.ooo behind
every policy issued by the Equitable.
