THE ADVANTAGES OFFERED ARE: It is a National Company, chartered by special Act of Congress, LSfitf. It has a Paid-up" Capital of $1,000,000. It offers Low rates of Premium. It furnishes Larger Insurance than other Com panies for the same money. Tt is Definite and Certain in its Terms. It is a Home Company in every locality. Its Policies are exempt from Attachment. There are no Unnecessary Restrictions in the Pol icies. Every Policy is Xon-forfcitable. Policies may be taken which Pay to the Insured their Full Amount and Return all the Pre miums, so that the Iusurance costs Only tho Interest on tho Annual Payments. Policies may bo taken that will Pa3- to tho In sured, after a certain number of years, Dur ing Life, an Annual Income of One-Tenth tho Amount named in the Policy. No Extra Rate is charged for risks upon tho Lives of Females. Insures not to Pay Dividends, but at so low a cost that dividends will be impossible. ITS POLICIES ARE NEGOTIABLE. By the Charter of the Company, certificates of obligations will bo issued, agreeing to purchase its policies' at their value which, when accompa nied by the policy duly assigned or transferred, are negotiable, and may bo used as collateral se curity, in making loans from the Company or from other parties. The Hon. Jno. E. Sanford, Insnranee Commis sioner of , Massachusetts, in his Report for. 1808, speuking of Dividends in Life Insurance Compa nies, says , " The sooner such guarantees cease to be made, and such expectations created, the sooner Life Insurance will come to rest on its true motive, and men insure their lives for security, and not for dividends. The best and the most popular companies will then be those that prom ise only equity, and render all that they promise, and furnish the best security, with the most up right and judicious management." By the Stock plan the full cash effect of the premium is immediately secured to the insured, tho Company taking all the risk. By the Mu tual plan, the full value in insurance of the pre mium paid, is not secured to the policy-holder, who takes a portion of the risk himself." Policies Issued In Ci olcl or- Currency, WM. E.
