business being nearly double that ever
aone by any other Company in the world
during the entire first year of its existence.
Such an unpreoedentul success should not
only inspire unusual confidence in the or
ganization so emphatically endorsed, but
be the subject of general congratulation
that the new Company has been able to
do so much for th.- future comfort ot the
families oi the insured. Evrrv family
thus protected from want is a proportion
ate diminution of future taxation, tempta
tion and crime.
Low cash rates, and a plain business
contract ot so much insurance for so much
money (avoiding all urieerfainties of notes
or dividends) are prominent features of
the plan pursued by the National Life.

" What tells us sc rc?,di!v the standard
of a town tr city as the appearance of
its paper? And its youth, or age can as
well be defined by tho observing as by

citizens, is depicted by its advertise

paper. Some papers show a good, solid,
healthy foundation, plethoric purses, and
a well to do appearance generally : others
show striving to contend with the grasp
ing thousands around them, trying hard
