An ample Reserve of over SOB, wv, ,OOO is now

Persons who have made up their minds to be
insured should, therefore. carefully inquire
what companies have done pest for their policy
holders in the past; which returned TO them the
largest amounts for over-paymcnts; which have
the least ordinary expenses; which are most
conservative; which most likely to stand the
test of time and realize the hopes of their men,
bers along the distant future. No, one need
make mistakes in this matter. 1t only requires
the exercise of little patient Judgment. The
whole country is literally strewn with insurance
documents Read and compare.
