We can decide for our- selves whether his efforts merit success or failure.

Then the decision is made which must be prompt and to the point, and we either \go\ or call a \halt.\ If we feel that you are \right\ and are willing to invest our mon- ey with yours and your endeavors you have made a valuable connec- tion that means, in our estimation, a gain to you.

Ryan, of Chi- cago, made the following state- ment in ieference to life insur- Lnee: • 'It is an unpardonable crime when a father and husband,' with c wife and children depending up- on him, neglects this sacred obli- gation: uses up _each week his wages, and in a moment of time They are always easily accessible is stricken by death; compels his and you will rarely find them too, friends to bury him; leaves his busy to talk with ion.

No bread in the pantry, no money in the purse, no coal in the thinker, and the next month - 's rent due. I have no sorrow for ,,that dead husband.
