8 COBrOBATIONS HAVE SOULS. The subject of life assurance Is attracting the attention of almost every man. Capitalists are failing themselves of the opportunities it af fords for profitable investment, and poor men are seeking It as a refuge for their dependent families. While all life assurance societies are financially sound and Arm, as the record of each nil) show, how Important that a spirit of hlfih-toncd liberality and integrity should char actenze the decisions of those who, as officers and dliectori, control the payment or losses I l The Equitable Life 'Assurance Socibtt of the United .States shares largely In the public confidence, the names ot those honored Phila delphia's, George II. Stuart; Thomas A. Bid-Uf-, and Theodore Cuylv, acting directors therefor, being sufficient guarantee to all. The following instance, however, Illustrates clearly the generous and noble sentiments that do and will guide its officials in the settle ment of claims which arle from the death ot Its members: John Thompson, deceased, has re ided in this city many years, doing business at Sprnce street wharf, and for years has been in uured in the "Equitable" for the sum of ten thousand dollars. All his premiums were promptly paid, excepting the last, which fell due Monday, October 15, 18C6. On Tuesday, October 16, the agent of the society called at the office of Mr. T., and learned that he was dangerously ill. Return ing, he found the son ot Mr. Thompson with a check drawn by Mr. T. himself on Satur day, October 13, for the amount of premium. Under these circumstances the agent could nut receive the premium, and thus revive th9 forfeited policy, without the consent of the society, to whom the facts were at once pre tented, October IS. and after the society had been informed of the death of Mr. Thomp son, J. W. Alexander, Esq., Secretary, replied as follows: "We think it best, under the cir cumstances, to receive the premium on Thomp son's policy, and will not make the failure to pay on the day the premium was due a reason lor declining to pay the loss. We are certainty not legully bound to rcceiee it, but as the parties appear to have acted in good iaith, we prefer to mew theloss rather than take advantage of their neglect. Pieaie receive the prenuum and issue etijt.n Is there one individual of the lnrjre number insured by the "Equitable" who will not ap prove and applaud this generous action Cer tainly, after such praiseworthy conduct, we cannot endorse the old cajing: "Corporations have no souls." Highly commendable as the above instance of liberality on the part of the Equitable Life As surance fioclety certainly is, jet it forms by no means an exception to their ecneral system of dealing with their policy-holders. This justly popular society always pays Us losses with the most honorable promptness, never having con tested a claim, thereby leaving no uncertainty whatever, concerning its ability and willingness to settle all claims of a similar character. The branch office of this Society is located at No. 432 Chesnut street. 7:Vi . 2 R HEUfrl ATISR1, NEURALGIA, GOUT, ASTHMA, POSITIVELY CURED AT LAST I NO CURE, NO PAY. . dr. riixEirs WONDERFUL RIIEU3IATIC REMEDY For KheamaUmi, Neuralgia, Gout, and Astbma, la truly ftonislilng the afflicted worid. thousands of sufferers, wbo have tried everything, reluctantly purchase it, and rapidly, to their e wn surprise, et well, and the terrible inveterate cases so easily cured prove it to be the mos wonde.bl remedy known in the civilized world.
