THE MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE
Il Company Of New York. No. 90 WI all 81.

Net amount of accumulated premiums, s2l5,57l.
This company is organized on the purely mutual
principle, and its business is restricted by the char
ter to the insurance of lives and granting annuities
and endowments.
II commenced, without capi tai, the LIST Of Feb
ruary, l643 At the close of its second year, (3ls
January lS45,) il had issued 066 pslieies and its
net accumulated premiums was s97, ,276. At the
termination Of the third year, on the 3lst January
1896 the whole number Of policies issued q l33
and its net accumulated premiums, after paying all
losses and expenses, was s2l5,57l; thus exhibiting
increase during the last year Of 047 policies is
sued, and SllS,2 Of accumulated funds, which is
rapidly augmenting by an annual income of $780,
900, growing out of original and renewed premiums
and interest on investments
This extraordinary success places the company
in a strong position, and 1t now ranks among the
safest institutions in the country.
Policy-holders participate in the whole Of the
profits, there being no proprietary interest or sub
scribed capital to absorb any portion thereof. An
extensive and prosperous business promises large
dividends on the FIRST division Of profits the 1s
of February, l64S, and persons now insuring will
share in these profits if they survive that period.
The premiums are paid annually, and are low
as any American company, and lower than the
English, with participation IN the profits Policy
holders are secured by investments in bonds and
mortgages on real estate in the city Of New York
and Brooklyn, worth double the amount loaned
thereon, and in stocks Of the State and city of New
York.
The transactions of this company are on the
cash principle-consequenl the survivors Of par
ties insurng with it will not be subjected to the
heavy drawback of accumulated premium notes;
reducing the benefit Of the assurance to a small pit
tance.
Persons may effect insurance on their own lives
and the lives of others. carried woman can insure
the life of her husband which will enure to her sole
use and that of her children.
