TAKE OUT AN INSURANCE
POLICY ON HAPPINESS
It does not cost one penny; as a matter of
fact, it pays you a nice little premium each year.
The trouble wth most insurance is that you
have to die to get your money back, and at the
time you need it most you can’t get it.
A savings account costs nothing—pays much.
You begin with a single dollar. It grows imper
ceptibly* but usually amounts to quite a comfort
able sum. »
This is “HAPPINESS INSURANCE”—see
us about it.
