During the lat three months there has been a happy realization to the life insurance com panies of the Wet that "it is an ill wind that blows noliody good" According to statistics furnii-hed by high officials of 15 of the leading companies in Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Wis consin, .Minnesota, ana .Missouri, mere has been an increase of nearly 30 percent in the business of thee companies the first six months of this year, as com pared with the amount of business done during the corresponding period a year ago. Asked the reason for this increase, the invariable answer has been that it was largely due to the exposure of the affairs of the Equitable company, and the con sequent prejudice aroused in many quar ters against companies which are sup posed to be under Wall Street control. Until thee reports of the smaller com panies of the West were made it is pop ularly supposed that there had been a great slump in the life insurance bu-i- nesg in all parts of the conntry. The ag itation in the newspapers and magazine set people to thinking tfhetber they were wie or unwine in; investing so much money in insurance as a provision for their families in cae of death. Naturally they compared the buying of policies and paying of premiums with the practi'.-e of putting savings in the hanks and with other forms of saving investments. For a time it seemed that life innuranc was to get a black eye m a result oi tnis stuny, nut we iwts in dicate that the people still have a strung faith in this manner of providing aga inst future want. .
