Life Insurance,

Every man need not insure his own life some
too wealthy to need it, great many too poor 20
afford il; and few too Independents to care for it.
But very large class, especially of city men, should
never rest till their lives are insured. Every man
Of moderate means who is earning fair salary or
making by his labor OF trade decent incoms. and
who has II wife, child, parent, sister, depending
on his exertions, should insure his life forthwith
AMI thus relieve his mind of all peculiarly anxiety
for those dearest to him. He may die tomorrow;
but an insurance his life puts the object of his
care even in that case, beyond the reach of pinch
ing want.
The last Life Insurance Company started in our
city is The GLOBE, located on the corner of Broad
way and Fulton street. In addition to being man
aged by substantial citizens Of large experience
in tho business, this company presents come new
aud excellent features in its programme, namely
|. All its Life and Endowment policies are non.
iorfeting-that is, an insurer who may, from what.
cause, discontinue his payments AFTER the third
viii receive paid.up policy Tor the amounts he has
actually paid.
,. All policies are indsputsbls except for fraud.
,. Tho Tcn-Yoar Non-Forfsitng plan is adopted,
having boon originated by the President Of this
company.
Though We have policies already outstanding,
we take one in this company.
