The Canadian government has an ar

Oh which enables those who are now
in good health to make provisions for
the evil days when life's strength
shall BE- honestly gone, says the Troy
Budget "a person can make deposit
i'm "a savings bank o. postal bank TO
the credit Of the government. The de
posts are compounded at four per
cent and provision il made for the
payment I'D the depositor OF q stipu-
lated annuity when the total ct the
deposit reaches named sum,
oil course, the amount of the an
nufty viii be computed according to

Payments to the annutant may d.
made in lump sums or in drib1ets as

The annuftfes provided for may mot
