POLICY THAT WAS LAPSED


Mrs. Annie Bohle, of 265 Paramount
avenue widow of George B. Bohle,
who died in the Essex County Hos
pital for the Insane April 49, 1905, is
the plaintiff in a suit against the
Prudential Insurance Company that
is on hearing in the Circuit Court
before Judge Nelson Y. DUNCAN to-
day.
Mr. Bohle, it Is claimed by Kalisch
& Kalisch, counsel for Mrs. Bohle,

had a $1,000 life insurance policy with
the Prudential company. After Mr..
Bohle became mentally incapacitated
Mrs. Bohle paid the quarterly pre-
miums, amounting to $7S4, on the
policy as they became due.
A payment was due June 80, 1904
but Mrs. Bohle alleges she received
no notice that such payment was due
or that date. AS customary, thirty
days grace vas allowed for payment
and on Saturday, July 30, 1904, ac-
cording to the story told by Mrs
Bohle today, an agent of the company
called at her home and requested pay
ment of the amount.
Mrs. Bohle had always made hel
payments at the Office of the company
and was chary about paying GU
money to agents or collectors, so sh'
told the collector to inform the offic'
that she would call at the office Mon
day, August l, and make the pay
ment.
This, she claims, she did, and thu
money was accepted, but that late
the company tried to return it to her
alleging that the policy had lapsed
She refused to accept the money.
The company claims that the polio!
became void on July 81, 1904, whei
the premium due June 80, 1904, hat
not been paid.

Don't look at this picture as simply
feature-more or less curious-in
big Sunday newspaper.
And don't read this editorial merely
as sort Of sermon to be looked

Skip it entirely, or say to yourself
that you will make it USEFUL TO
YOURSELF.
Ask yourself whether or not it is true
that with the power inside of yourself,
WILL POWER, you can turn your most
dangerous enemy to stone.
AND THEN USE THE POWER.
You can do it. If with real WILLIE
you can say NO to drink, you can turn
that particular Gorgon to stone, To
trouble you no more.
II you can meet with strength of
character and will that will not bend to
the temptations and follies in your path,
you can turn them into stone and rem.
der them harmless, just as the mythical
Perseus held up the CHASTITY head, tooth
less, with no eyes in the sockets, and
making the King look upon it turned
him into block Of marble.
The old mythology and the old mir

The idea of this editorial, and in this
picture, where YOU ARE SHOWN AS
PERSEUS UP TO DATE, holding up
the Gorgon head, is to remind you that
what Perseus was supposed to do, but
didn't do, THE RIGHT KIND OF A
MAN ACTUALLY CAN DO.
In order to possess the Gorgon head
now and use it, you don't have to steal
an eye or tooth from any old, gray
woman at the oceans edge And you
don't have to do miraculous things. I,
YOU SIMPLY HAVE TO USE
YOUR WILL. The will is the Gorgon
head for the man who knows how to
use it.
Our artist shows young Perseus Of
the brand of 1913, holding up head
labelled knowledge.
knowledge is part of the Gorgon
head that the wise man uses in his own
defense. BUT WILL POWER rs
MORE IMPORTANT EVEN THAN
KNOWLEDGE.
You have got in you only one real
force, which is your intelligence. And
in that intelligence the first and most
important power is THE POWER OF
THE WILL,
If you WILL, you can control your
self and defy the enemies that oppose
you.
We do not say that you can turn into
stone the man you don't like.
