Important and Salutary Improvements have been introduced
into Life Assurance practice by this Company.
The Policies or Contracts of Assurance are Indefeasible and
Indisputable.
The whole Profits of the Mutual or Participatinm Branch ~f
Assurance, are divided amongst the Assured of that Class, who
are relieved from all responsibility.
The Lowest Rates of Premium, the Reduced or Non-parti-
cipating Rates, are intended for those who prefer an immediate
saving to prospective accumulations.
One-half of the Premiums may remain Unpaid for Seven
Years, affording a greater facility for Loan Transactions than
any other plan which has been suggested—allowing a Policy to
be dropped at one-half of the usual sacrifice—and entitling the
Assured at a future period, when loss of health may prevent him
from obtaining a New Assurance, to continue a Policy for
double the amount of the sum for which he has paid Premiums.
Endowments are granted to Children contingent on their at-
taining a specified age.
Sums asssured may be made Payable to the Assured them-
selves, at any specified age, or to their heirs or assigns, in the
event of the Assured's death before that time.
Medical Gentlemen are in all cases remunerated by the Com-
pany fa their reports.
A Liberal Commission allowed to Solicitors and Agents.
