Hare you tried to Imagine Just wbnt condition would exist In your family Immediately after your deatn. and have you carefully provided Tor that condition? These and a number ot similar questions must he auswered satisfactorily before you can say that your bouse Is really In order.

It would be Impossible for you to do this from memory after the goods have been destroyed, and much needless trouble would necessarily ensue with out such a list. And do not rely wholly upon your agent to renew your policies as they expire. Keep a list of tho dates of expiry In your nrcount book, where you will see tbem frequently Suppose yon should lie run over mid killed today Have you looked Into the law of your slate to ascertain whether or not your safety box would be seal ed. nnd If It would be senled are there any documents In It which your family would need before It were officially opened by your executors In the pres ence of a state officer?

When n man draws np his will It Is seldom that he appreciates the fHct that his ensb In bank and the Interest accrued on his Investments up to the date of his death become principal and cannot lie used by tils family to pay their current expenses following his death. An excellent way for a man to tie sure that his fntnlly. upon Ills death, will have ready money at once, free from all eompllcatlons. Is to take out. In addition to his regular Insnrnnee, n polley for say $1,000 or $2.000 I d favor of his wife or some member of his family This sum will have nothing to do with the legal formalities necessary In connection with the nettling up of the estate and can be Immediately collect ed and put In use Pistolaa and Doubloons.
