A CONVINCING PROOF.
An old man went into a life insurance office and asked to be insured. The company asked his age. His reply was 94. “Why, my good man, we caunot insure you,” said the company. “ Why not ? ” he demanded. “ Why, you are 94 years old.” “What of that?” the old man cried. “Look at statistics, and they will tell you that fewer men die at 94 than at any other age.”
