INSURANCE ON Disqualification is invited
to the advertisement of the Mutual Life Iu-
surance Company, of which Messrs. w. d.
Little & Co., are agents. The senior partner
OF this firm has had the agency of this compa-
ny for more than twenty years. To company
was organized IN 1843, and it has grown to such
capacity that its present assr.r --s S~en'y-
three millions of dollars. 1t has been one of
the most successful Life Companies in the
country, as its affairs have always been man
aged with prudence, while strict attention to
the claims of customers has given the company
an enviable position in the community.
An investigation into the affairs of this COM
pauy and an examination of its operations, and
the rules by which it's business is conducted,
must convince thuse who desire life policies
that they can not do better than to invest in
this. Looking at the security and the perpet-
uity of the institution, the enormous available
cash funds, the mutual benefit to be derived by
each policy holder from division of the profits,
from which large yearly dividends are derived,
which may be used in payment of the premi-
UNI or be added to the insured, it must be evil
dent that the Mutual Life Insurance Company
is Just the place to take out policy.
