at Lansingburg Academy and _ was
graduated from Yale in the Class of

ted to the bar and then became very

JAMES H. ATKINS, 49.
James H. Atkins, ’49, died at his
home in Meriden, Conn., on Oct. 25, of

months. Mr. Atkins was born in Meri-

The Family’s Point of View.
F you are thirty-five years old and are in good health, and are earning $100 ~
a month, your life, on which this earning depends, is worth $22,700 in
cash to-day to your family. It you die they lose the $100 a month, the
equivalent of which is the $22,700. The cash value of your life to them
is therefore $22,700. They lose that if you die. | |
You have made your family dependent on you: dependent on that $100 a
month, You have put them at the risk of losing # by losing you.
If you had a piece of property which was bringing you in $100 a month
and it stood a chance of being destroyed and so cutting off your income,
you would not rest until you had taken enough of that $100 a month and
‘nsured yourself against the loss of it. You would consider that you had not
done your duty by yourself until you had so protected yourself effectually.
Your life is just such a piece of property to your family: you have made
it so. They need just that same effectual protection against its loss which
may come any day. And they cannot protect themselves. They rely on
you for that as much as they do for the $100 a month itself. They need
protection against that loss even more than you need protection against the
loss of your property. But they cannot have it unless you give it to them.
You have exposed them to the loss: you have made them dependent on
you: you alone can protect them in their dependence. |
THE CONNECTICUT MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
Makes its plans from the family’s point of view: to give them the most
absolute protection, at the least cost to you and with perfect equity to both.
It will be glad to serve you and your family in this great matter.

service as Acting School Visitor for the
town, and was to some extent engaged

in this period, the nomination of his
political party for the probate judg-
ship of the district. From 1859 until
his death he was engaged in business
enterprises in Connecticut and _ else-
where, and has devoted his leisure
hours to studies and experiments. He

ter, Mary Atkins.
