Highway 421 If you had a million dollar.'^, how would you safeguard it over the years for you and your family? You Avould not allow it to remain idle, for idle dollars do not multiply. You would invest it, and endeavor to make your million dollars make another million for you. There are many inve.st- ments (hat you could make that would pay you nice dividend.s. You might invest in stocks and bonds—in “iron clad” securities, and your million dollars would multiply for you. Yet it has been generally conceeded that life insurance Is the most riskless in vestment that you could po.ssibly make, and the dividends it will pay you—the profits you will make—Avill indeed surprise you. Even if you are not a millionaire you are entitled to a profit on your investment just as much as if you were a millionaire.
