ELIZABETH j. PARRY.
From the above card it appears that tn.
"Wis. Life Insurance Co." has already paid
the fnll amount Of their policy on the life
of Mr.. Parry, who was so suddenly taken
from our midst one short week ago III
This is not only one Of the soundest in
situations in the United States, but it is
managed by gentlemen, who always deeply
sympathize with the afflicted and manifest
their sympathy not only in words but by
promptly and cheerlully meeting losses az
they occur, without waiting the usual
sixty days" 1t is too often the case tha,
companies seem disposed to take advantage
of technicalities, and instead Of assisting IN
preparing the way Tor the payment OF losses,
stand aloof until the proofs are presented
and then take advantage Of them because
they are not what they are pleased to term
Tin form" Weare glad to know that there
is no such old fegyism about our Wiscon.
sin company.
The moment they are notified of loss
1t is their invariable rule to at once S. 1
the local Agent all necessary banks and
forms, with Instructions t. render to the
afflicted parties every needed assistance in
p, rtcctiDg the papers, and to return them
as soon As poss be, in order that payu,, n
may be immediately made, and whrrelcu

1t is f'v"r which only those can appreciate

ness, to be thus met at the threshold of
their new trials alone with The world--nct
with objections and techncalties and de-
lays-but with kindness, assistance, s, m
pathv and promptness.
1t must be apparent to all that Life In
surance is not only important, but the choice
of the Company and the Agent who trans
act the business is equally So. The Mu-
TuAL OF WISCONSIN is the only Northwest
crn Life Insurance Company, and should
be patrOniZed oy all western men.
It's assets now exceed $3.50, 900, and are
rapidly accommodating All me profits are
divided among the pulley holders, and in

1t is impossible TO say, in one issue, all
the good things which this noble, manly
company deserve. The papers Of Wiscon
sin and Iowa are chequered with compli
mentary notices Of the MUTUAL. The Co.
has over 5000 policies in force Total losses
in years only FIFTY Over $50 policies in
McGregor in Five years and only one loss.
ID. ID. FRASER, the whole souled Agent, is
around all the time, taking from two 10
seven policies a day and working like
beaver or badger. Doc. Martins range is

If you want safe families, and money in
