To ILLUSTRATE A man aged IS Of
sound health and constitution; free from
hereditary or family disease, and Of
temperate habits, can insure his NE, Tor
the sum of One Thousand dollars, by
paying six dollars and eighty-seven and
a half cents quarterly, or twenty sevsn
Dollars and fifty cents annually for the
whole life. At his death his family
will receive the sum Of One Thousan1
Dollars, and the accumulated dividends,
earned by the premiums, in good con-.
panies, generally fifty per cent. acb
insurer for the whole Is a stock Older,
al d participates in the profits. Lives
may be insured for one year or a term
of years.
When one i%nsures his life for the
whole life, he pays as the premium or
price Of insurance, the same sum every
year; no matter how long he lives. A
man 35 would insure his life for the
whole life for one thousand dollars, at
twenty.seven dollars and fifty cents,
payable each year, and he would pay
no more than that sum al so years Of
age. If he insure year after year, the
premium is increased every year, and
al the age Of SO he would pay forty one
dollars and so cents.
The advantages Of life insurance are
now TOO we'll understood to need a long
exposition In all countries the pru-
dent and far sighted, whose means are
limited, and who have dependent fami,
lies effect insurance for their benefit; as
sured that when they die, the widowed
and fatherless will not want, but will re-
ceive from the insurance offices, a GER.
tain though moderate competence hus
bands and fathers may toll happily dur.
ing the day, and sleep untroubIed by dis.
tressing dreams at night. An %indepen-
dence for the family is secured, let the
insured die when he may, in debt or out
Of debt.
The company is now ready to receive
applications; and when applications TO
a sufficient amount to ensure a safe
commencement shall have been accepted
by the trustees, the policies will be is
sued. Parties making application must
hold themselves thereafter in readiness
o pay the first premium, at all times.
A failure to pay the premium when due,
forfeits the policy. No insurance will
be granted for more than 5000 dollars
on a life at present. No person need
apply who is unsound in health and con-
stitution, or liable to any family or her
editary diseas, or Incorporate in his hab-
its. If one, whose life is insured be.
come Incorporate, TO the injury Of his
health thereafter, the policy on his life
will be forfeited. A life may be insured
in the name Of trustees, or by a wife TO
enure TO her, or to her children if she
die before her husband. This is a sacred
fund not subject by an express provision
of the charter, to any debts or liabiM
ties. The profits Of the company can
be loaned only upon unincumbered, i'm
proved real estate, worth at a sworn
cash valuation, twice the amount loaned
The investment is, as an investment
merely, a good one. Ten dollars will
insure for a year the life Of a man aged
25 years for 1000; it would require
more than thirty years at compound in
%terest for ten dollars to reach this sum-.
Faithful agents, who can assure the
board Of trustees o ftheir responsibility,
are wanted in every town in the state.
Applications postage paid, to be made to
the President.
Upon postpaid applications, the forms
necessary for applicants for insurance
will be furnished.
