/ Founded on solid money cd basis, with AN am-
I pie capital ami large accumulation of assets,
as ratio OF assets to Liabilities Nthe true test oi
a Companys strength equas all the older Com
panles. While there are several departments,
they are departments OF the same Company,
anu each and every one guarantees the pay
ment OF the policies Of the Company.
One OF the prime objects OF the organizatiO
is the check, If possible, and as Tar as practl
cable, of the drain OF capital from the South
and at the same time 10 furnish to the people
as safe aud as honestly managed Com pauy
as can be found in any section, investing its
funds IN the respective communities from
which they are derived.
Have the people Of these States any concep-
ton OF the Immense sums OF money yearly
taken from the entire South for Llte lusuT-
ance2 BY calculation, based on the best sta
tlstics which can be Obtained, 1t is estimated
that "A sum of not less than Six or Eight Mil
lions of Dollars ts6,OOQOOO) to (Ss,OOO,OOOJ is
sent every year from the South for tins pur-
pose aggregate amount since the war over
Fifty Millions Of Dollars We ask the people
10 consider how rapidly aud into what gigan-
tic proportions every material interest OF our
section could be developed by the retention,
aud lending at reasonable interest in our midst
of these enormous sums and the accumulation
of compound interest thereon.

No Southern man should send his money out
of the South for Life Insurance when Southern
Companies, in every respect solvent and reli-
able, are seeking patronage.
