ter, Of this place. has been appointed

Life Insurance Company Of Hartford,
Conn, one Of the most successful life
insurance companies in this country
We copy the following article, in re-
lation to this company, and the impor-
tanco Of life insurance. from the Rut
land Herald.
Permit me through your valuable
paper, read by many with pleasure and
profit, 10 invite the attention Of your
readers to the subject Of Life Insurance
Many people do not think that il is as
old tn insuuuyion as ftcfs and history
slow il 20 he. and among sne many
important req 4irements VI nIen, vi us
bands and fathers, is TO insure Tue val
ue Of my life for those to whom | am
valuable to. II is a noble duty. Among
the many insurance companies Of the
age may be fayorably noticed the Old
Phoenix Mutual Life insurance Com
pany Of Hartford, Conn. This is an
old and worthy aud reliable company.
1t has a large and increasing capital,
with an increase of business unequaled
by any, which gives it the confidence
and patronage Of the shrewdest bust
ness men of our time. The funds of
this company are safely and pro6tably
invested as any other companies are
or can be, being upon real estate, bank
stock and U. s. coupon bonds. Security
with low rates, are OF paramount interest
to the insured. Those insured are not
interested in millions piled in Hartford
or New York, any more than the high
est dividends which can be paid them
annually consistent with the security
of the amount they are insured. The
Phoenix has special regard for those
two primary ideas.
The ability and honesty of this com
pany may be seen in its sixteen years
Of successful history. 1t has always
paid its claims fully. 1t has never con-
tested a claim, and pays Immediately
on notice of loss. Certainly, a worthy
record. The company insures on all
the plans common to life insurance
One of the best tables is the ten-year
non .forfeitable endowment table. BY
this plan the payments are all paid in
ten years, and should the party live to
the specified age, the money is paid for
which he was insured to him. BY this
f~orethought, ones robust years will
make sure provision for old age; and
every other desirable method is embrace
ed in the plans of insurance. Besides,
the Old Phoenix have taken off all re-
strictions as regards travel, residence in
the United States and Europe.
The insured can come and 60 at will,
or reside where they please, without the
liability of FORGETTING their policies, or
subject them to guadruble rates All
restrictions are removed relative to oc-
cupation, except manufacture of gun
powder, fireworks, and submarine ope-
%rations. So engineers, fremen and pi-
lots, can carry more insurance on then
lives now, for there is no extra charge
made. A man Insured with these lib
eral advantages feels no longer the
dread of seeking out a permit to en-.
dorse on his policy, and paying from
five to fifty dollars mor for the insu.
rance on his life. Heis free to 90 and
come, as its advantages, like light and
air, can be enjoyed by all. From the
humblest walks of Christian life to the
highest Office in the gift of the Ameri.
can people, does this staunch old com,
pany enrole its members. AH need the
benefit of it. Rich to-day, poor to-mor,
row-alive to-day, tomorrow in tht
grave. Do not let those institutions
that would remove the load from YOU
shoulders and anxiety, wait to seel
you out. Say, / will be insured, anc
then ask your neighbor who is insured
in this company for the name OF the
agent to apply to, and get all the adj
yantaga known to the present time O
being in the right place. All our lol
icles are on-forfeitable, and our rates
are as low as any reliable company
Dividends have averaged 80 per cent.
and with all these facts considered, have
you done the best you can to protect
as a husband and father, the contin
gencies of life? Do not allow yoursel
to be negligent, while a few dollars saw
! ed from less useful objects shall pro
! tect your dear ones, and give yol
relief the acknowledged fact Of beinl
: assured. Fifty cents a week will say,
a good policy. There is a great inter
est now in life insurance, and We hop
10 see yet more, and that the genera
principles Of insurance viii be bette
understood.
