Company being a Home Institution. it should
be preferred by citizens of the South for ma.
ny reasons. We will. however, rnunerate
only two or three.
]: The money invested in it is retained at
home, where it assists in promoting Western
and Southern trade and COMMERCE., in build.
ing up towns and cities. in developing our
rich mineral and agricultural resources in
building our great lines of railroad. and in
cnItivafing our boundIe>> prairirs. For these.
reasons Southern and Western men should
insure in it.
:. As its funds are all invested where hicl,
rates of interest prevail. it can grant insurance.
cheaper and pay better divil-nds than any
Eastern Company. For this lra>on all per-
sons desiring t" max" a certain and safe pro-
vision fer their families. should insure in it.
