WHEN YOUR SHIP COMES SAILING IN, GUIDE
IT SAFELY PAST THE ROCKS.
There's A Way!
When do you intend to save a living for your widow
and children? If you do not ever intend to have any-
thing while here on this earth and you want to save
something for the dear wife and children, why not
investigate now before it is too late in one of the old-
est Life Companies in existence and see how small
it would cost you to have something to pay that doc-
tor hill, funeral expense and hospital fees.
Just think! If you have nothing now, and think
that you will never have anything, who is going to
bear these expenses when you die? Do you think
that your neighbors will take up a public collection
to defray expenses, or would you like to have a living
for them? If so, invest in the Federal Life Insur-
ance Company and see how small it would cost you,
just to do your duty,... Just think of this great fea-
ture, full return premiums, total disability and dou-
ble indemnity. The Federal also has the accident and
health policies which any person who works on the
farm, or in the office, or In the shop should know
something about. Your time is verj valuable. Just
think what our accident and health policies do. They
pay you full indemnity for accident, total disability,
from one day to a life time, also pays full indemnity
for sickness from one day to r life time for confining
or non-confining total disability. When you get that
arm broken or fractured by that kicking Ford you
would get more than a $10,000.00 policy cost.
