If these statements were from the widows or executors of policy-holders \ h >;

were satisfiedWith their assurance because it furnished protection, and gave
them sufficient peace of mind to offset the burden of the continuing annua!!
premiums on their policies, they would lie no more than reasonable assertions.
But this satisfaction is something more than this: It is the gratification of men
who have, over and above the protection from the assurance, kkaliekd on a
profitable investment. They hare reason to be satisfied. For twenty years
they have been building up their business and accumulating fortunes, and
meanwhile their families and estates have been protected against the disaster
which would have come, if through some accident they had died prematurely
But these dangers have now been passed, anil what is the result! 1 Must th* y

more than this, thus: "We are move than satisfied because, in addition to the
protect ion given for all these years, our Tontine policies hare turned ant to be
‘good INVESTMENTS, as it proved by the fact that the Equitable has returned
