BUY LIFE INSURANCE.
Out of the prosperity of
people in every walk of life,
producer in the most pronounced way, there ought to be a
wide-spread feeling as there is wide-spread prosperity, to lay
aside something out oi the abundance ot the present that win
be saved ior the luturc.
There is nothing in the way of a permanent investment
that possesses more satisfaction to the investor than the buy
ing of life insurance protection. It not only protects those
dependent upon one, but it protects the buyer himself and it
protects his estate and business against those inroads which
might come through long sickness and incapacitation. Life
insurancli today, is an investment; the larger part of life
insurance that is sold carried with its investment, savings
and a protection that not only looks after those dependent
but that may be a protection to the insured himself in his old
age. Life insurance at one's death, goes direct to the
beneficiary; it cannot be taken for debts; it cannot be separ
ated from the one for whom it was intended. It is a saving
in this way that is unassailable; the man who in his best pro
ducing years starts out with a reasonable amount of life
insurance, can make that a savings bank for himself as well
as carrying the protection that it offers, lie' can pay for Jus
insurance in his producing years and have it laid by for the
future. In no way can one get more satisfaction than by
feeling that he has ample insurance protection. His credit is
enlarged; his freedom of action increased, his worries over
what might happen dissipated, and the man so fortified is
equipped to meet whatever changes may come.
Today, no man thinks of going without fire insurance
protection for his property. How much more ought men to
think of the protection ot life insurance? Property may be
destroyed and the man may rebuild and recover from his
losses, but the man who taces death without life insurance,
has no highway open for recovery. Life insurance is as
much more important to every man as life is more important
than property. Therefore, out of the aboundance of today,
lay aside real savings and protection for tomorrow by invest
ing some of the prosperity of the present in life insurance.
The above is a clipping from the Trade Review of Lin
coln. How true it is, and when buying insurance, why not
keep your money at home, buy of
