LIFE INSURANCE THE SURE PROTECTION. ' ~
Occasionally one runs across a man who declines to protect [ ??
r those dependent upon him by insuring: his life. He
i thinks insurance on his residence and other persona'
( property is necessary?but insure his life, never! This
illogical and unwise man proudly boasts of his health :
and strength and of his ability to care for nis family i
under any and all circumstances. Annarantlv ! ?> i? 1
unmindful of the fact that so often death comes without ]"H(
warning" and that even a hard earned competence may . qj-j
fade away in a night. f

It is the insurance policy alone that endures: it is the only
? sure barrier against the encroachments of poverty and
