A fascinating ad.  The implications are that if you died, your kids wouldn't be sent to some sort of satanic mill orphanage if you left 'em a pile of cash.  Apparently rich children are allowed to live on their own.  Special kudos to the nazi-like matron just waiting to beat the hell out of the new (poor) kid and the spear headed fence to keep the little tykes imprisoned.  I guess they must have run short on razor wire.
