A l4ir'x NirHMK Case.
An unusual summons was roe'd
over the telephone not long ago by
Dr. David Birnoy of the University
of Pennsylvania Irom a wealthy
man in New York, who wished him
to go to Long Island. Dr. Birnoy
endeavored to Hud out something
about the nature of the case he
was expected to treat, but the man
after securing his promise to go,
refused to talk fur her over the
'phone. The Doctor packed a case
of instruments at random and met
the man in New York. After tak
ing dinner at the Waldorf they
took the train for Long Island, but
not a word was said about tne op
eration. When they arrived ti e
man thanked the Doctor and pni.t
him $50, then, in response to the
Iookfof wonder from the astonished
surgeon, he said : "I saw my sis
ter bleed to death in a railroad ac
cident for want of a physician, and
since that day I never travelled
without one." Ex.
Protection
That Protects
When a man insures his
life under the old form of
insurance, he is simply
assured that a certain
sum will be paid to his
wife, children, or heirs at
his death. Good enough
in its way, but there is a
much better way. The
Tontine Instalment Pol
icy of the
Equitable
Life
not only insures but pro
tects the benificiary from
loss of the insurance as
well. For further par
