The Benefit Co. is not the Cheapest for the reason
that ITS Rates are higher, and the Diuidends much
less
For instance at the age Of 49, for ssooo, on the 10
year plan, with the Benefit Co. it win cost s57 81
while with the Mutual Life Co. only NJ s51 81
being So 20 Tess, with the difference of Rate
to other ages, r4 4f,
s@The Dividends of the MUTUAL LIFE co. have
been more than Seventy per cent. on the Premiums
paid while those Of the Benefit Co. have never been
more than 50 per cent The Policies Of the Mastaal
life Co. are constantly increasing in amount, and
always have a Cash value on surrender. While
those of the Benefit Co. do not increase, and have
such value unless the premiums paid up incash.

To those who prefer the Ten Yearly payments,
no other Company presents such advantages; this
gives more than compound interest for the money
paid. ~ 't- - -'--+ "a @'+ III

Many Policies taken out at this Agency have IN
