Big Life Insurance.

Philadelphia Times. John Wanamaker is the first citizen of this country who has rounded out a full million dollars of insurance on his life, <j and the next highest life insurance is John B. Stetson, the great manufacturer of this city, who has $750,000 of life insurance. These are representative men in the broadest and best sense, and both are the sole architects of their business success and fortunes. The fact that men who know what it is to earn money, and who struggled against poverty in early life, turn to life insurance when the possessors of. large wealth, is the highest possible tribute to the value of life insurance.
