' A few days ago a train going over the mountains on the Pennsylvania Railroad met with a naccident, de railing some of the, cars. The cars ran down a steep bank, rolled over and landed at the brink of a stream, but not a passenger was killed. Sup pose the rolling stock ; had been cheap? In time of storm at sea, how. would you like to hear how cheap were the anchor, the cable, the life-boats, and all that ; goes to give security and safety in time of storm 7 Would you not willingly pay more to travel on a line where you knew no expense was spared to make them safe and, secure; to be sure , they would float In seas and weather that would sink other than the strongest ships? What would' It be worth to you and your family at home to feel that the vessel on which you sailed was the strongest in the world? For commercial t purposes only, our rail vnnda and tcamhtn9 snare nn x. pense to get the best material giving th utmost security. Life assurance ought to be the last thing In the world In which cheapness Is con sidered at the expense of security, liberality and certainty of payment. Insurance is to make sure. Uncer tain life insurance is a contradiction of terms. It would be wiser almost to trust a life preserver that would sink Instead of support you. It Is the sheet anchor that is intended to hold in every storm. Ought there to " be any uncertainty about this, whatever else one may have to buy cheap? i The tst ot your life insurance will come either after your death, too late to correct any mistake, and will all not upon you, but upon yur In nocent wife and children; orupon you In your old age when you can no longer remedy the mistake 'of youth. : No company in the world offers greater certainty of payment than. tne jcquitaDie.- xms is the nrst con sideration in life insurance. No com pany can furnish safer life Insurance at a pt!'panently lower cost than the Equitable. ?,.:.:, ,- t For li-Tormation j concerning the New York State. Standard Policy, call on or address W. J.
