FACTS ABOUT
White Bronze
It is cast from a refined non-corrosive metal. It is not porous, has no fissures and will not absorb moisture. It will not grow moss or require clean- ing. Frost has no effect upon it. Inscriptions are cast in raised letters and will always remain legible. More artistic designs can be produced than in any other material.

VALUE OF A HUMAN LIFE
Family ties are needed to develop the highest value of a human life. But there devolves upon anyone possessing such ties the responsibility of supporting those who have by his own choice and act the right to depend upon him. The family has a clear and indisputable interest in his earnings, and this interest ex- tends into the future as far as they need it.
By the payment of comparatively small sums at convenient intervals, he can prevent the distress which would fall upon his dependents in case of his prema- ture death, and,he can, moreover, provide for his own future.
A perfect provision for this double protection is furnished for about $30 per year per $1.000
