RICHARDS No. 1541 N. 12th St. ROTECTION AND INVESTMENT.-That is a very desirable combination. The financial venture that ignores the element of safety may be a PERMANENT investment but not a very PROFITABLE one; as a rule, the higher the rate of interest the greater the risk entailed upon the principal. Better combine a reasonable rate of interest with absolute safety of principal. This will hold good in life insurance. The Manhattan's New Plan does not promise improbable, but reasonable results, and backs the promise by a GUARANTEE, and the guarantee stands upon a foundation of $11,000,000, of which over $2,000,000 is clear surplus. There is investment, there is protection, for you, in the Manhattan’s New contract. JAMES B. CARR, GEN’L AGT., 414 Walnut St. LYDIA A. MURPHY, PLAIN AND FANGY MILLINER, (EstablishED 30 YEARS.)
