Seven Reasons why you should Insure your Life. 1. Because life ia so uaevrtain ; while yon are in health you are certain to be accepted, whereas if you postpone it you are liable to contract sunn <Hsease, and then to be rejected by every Asmrunc Company; by delay you gain nothing; by delay you may lose all chance of heing assured. 2. Becaut-e the greatest financiers of the preseut day, as well as bankers and merchants, usually avail themselves of tliH benefits which Life Assurance offers, and you cannot do better thau follow their example iv this respect. 3. Because, if you are young, an Assurance Policy would not cost you much. If at 25, for £100, nbou*; £2 0«. 4d. yearly, with your share of the profits of the Company; and you must iemembt;r"— " the young die as well as the old." 4. Because, if you are not married, you can, by joining a Life Assurance Society, obtain a document which will prove that you have cted with prudence and forethought, and may be the means of your making auch a matcu that your future course may be oue of prosperity. 6. Because, if you are married, and are not assured, you may have cause to regret that you had neglected Buch au easy method of providing; for those you love ; aud on a dying bed it would add to your other distressing feehu^s. 6. Because, ie you aie in bimues<>, and one of a firm, you can have a Partnership Assurance, d, iv the event of death occurring to either, the business remains undisturbed through the withdrawal of part capital which is usually the case after feuch aa event, or, if you have advanced ruomy to any peiaon, or you nave a debtor unable to pay, you can assure their lives and hold the Policy as security. 7. Because a Life Assurance Policy ia a good security for loans, and in temporary embairassmunt is often used with great advantage. J. TON SON GAKLICK, Agent for the Province of Auckland.
