THAT INSURANCE PREMIUM
Here’s An Easy Way To Prepare To
MeetvTheObligation When Due.
Few are the people today who do
not carry at least a small amount oi
insurance on their lives. The percent
of non-insured people is decreasing
rapidly each year.
Beca'Use they have failed to make
arrangements- to- pay the premium,
which fail due yearly on their insu¬
rance, a considerable -number of
people fthnually 'allow their policies
to lapse. This means a loss to them,
arrangements "to pay the premiums,
tion. *•'. ,
Practically ninety percent of the
policies Which lapse are allowed to
do so becausfe the policy holder, in¬
stead of layfng aside regularly a
certain'sum of money that will grow
to be large enough in a year to pay
the premium on its due date, proceeds
with a" sort of vague expectation of
having' the amount of the premium
when it becomes due. In the case oi
the average man, the amount of the
yearly' premium on his insurance is
not an inconsequential sum and very
frequently failure to build gradually
up this amount during the year by
weekly or monthly laying aside a
certain amount causes embarrass¬
ment.
The regular monthly Or weekly
purchase of Government Savings
Stamps, thus cresting a sinking fund,
as it wer£,' for taking care of the im
surance premium when it comes due
each year, is meeting with much fa¬
i vor with persons who are following
this practice. Not only do they save
« nod have ready the of their
amounts
insurance* premiums, but their money
has been earning interest.
Another advantage of this system
is the fact that the money, while it
can be gotten from the post office
on ten days notice, is not in n bank
where it can be checked out or car¬
ried in the pockets where it can be
spent at will.

tnd other ill health.
Some people have a good garden
iamethnea when all the neighbors
have almost entire failure because
of proper preparation of the soil and
frequent cand shallow cultivation.
Especially is this true in dry weather.
We commence our garden in the
fall by putting out a good many cab¬
bage plants, lettuce and onions, and
so on through the season for all
vegetables. By so doing we have
something green covering the garden
the year around, providing plenty of
