"by Jove!” lie said, looking up, “I never looked at it in that way before. I have been approached many times by insurance agents, but I always considered the whole business as a graft a moneymaking humbug. I have raked and scraped ever since my marriage, and have nothing to show lor it. I ought to have saved a little as I went along and put it in the bunk, so that my family would have something after I am gone.” “An investment in a life insurance policy will beat the bank all hollow,” said Harmon. “If you bank your savings, say as much as yon would pay in premiums on a life insurance policy for #2,000, at the end of twenty years, with the accumu lated interest, it would not be worth as niiicli to your family in the event of your death as an insurance policy. Then suppose you should die in six mouths, a year, or two years, how far would your savings take your family?” “Hut look how unreliable some of the insurance companies are,” ventured <I’Neil. “No more so than hanks,” replied Hannon. “Suppose you have #2,000 in a hank, and it. fails, where are youf There may i»e some life insurance companies that are unreliable, but I am not in the least afraid of the company whose policy I hold. You can depend on the old /TCIiim every time. Take my advice, old hoy, and take out a policy in the zKtna, and you will find your self becoming as optimistic as I am.
