For salo by FISHER A HE?NTTSH, Oct 22 j_Druggists. RESISTING PROVIDENCE. ~ 6?T IFE INSURANCE enables a mau to I J put himself in harmony with Di? vine Providence. Providence has brought the institution into heir-; to bless tho race. He who refuses 1., distrusts and despises Providenco and invites its von geanco upon himself and bis household. Wo know ot no fallacy eo transparent, no delusion moro groundless, than that which makes the practioo of Lifo Insurance appear as an attempt to controvert the Divine will." Thousands of widows and orphans live to attest tho divino beneficence of LIFE INSURANCE. Withont its protecting ajgis, many of them would, to-day, he beg? gars upon tho streets, or occupants of ] poor-houses and penitentiaries. No man | can foretell what will bo his circumstances at tho time of his death. The rich man of | to-day dies the panpor of to-morrow, and the family, delicately roared, becomo tho unprepared victims of diro Want, with her train of countless evils. Such a result is impossible, with a policy of Lifo Insurance. It, indood, offers the only absolutely safe investment which can be made for tho benefit of ono's family and of his own old age.
