THIS MAN MADE SURE

MY wife and 1 looked at it from
e business standpoint" said a friend
last week.
Men protect their business. Yet
many of them put off protecting home
and dependents. Business loss is of
ten replaced, but in life our loss is
total. l figured that my earnings are
my wife's income. With me gone her
income ceases. So l protected her.
Nov If anything happens to me,
don't sentence her for her remaining
days TO a life of hardship and misery.
She will have enough to live COM
fortably. And l am making certain
that II I should die the payments on
my home will not stop and leave her
without a roof over her head.
Il know two men who put off taking
insurance SO long that they could not
pass the physical examination when
they were ready. 1 am glad 1 didn't
make the same mistake"
You will never know what insurance
means to you until you investigate
fully. Get the facts here. No obli-
cation on your part. Phone or let's
