Life insurance cannot be too conservative. Misfortunes do not befan policy holders from excess of prudence in company management. The Connecticut Mutual has always been mindful of the truth, and carefully kept on the safe side. This course, unhinuhingly pursued, has given 1t the eminent standing it takes among the life insurance companies of the world. It aims at actual, not apparent, safety to policy-holders. In the opinion of it's extremely conservative and able head the time has now come to insure it's insurance little more strongly if possible. The Connecticut Mutual has, therefore, wisely determined with regard to future policies, to compute net premiums and reserves on the assumption of earning per cent. interest on the best long investments, instead of per cent. which will continue the basis of busi- ness now existing This is taking time by the forelock, but none too soon. The ad- yantages to the poicy-holder are obvious. The company will spare no skill or pains to earn over per cent. on it's money, and everything above that will go to the policy holder as surplus. This is not the only discreet change. adopted by the com pany. Hereafter the American Experi- ence table of mortality will be used instead of the English table as the basis of calculation. The American table is so far about the mortality actually occurring as to increase the measure of safety for the future
 thus attaining, in another way, the object constantly sought by this company. The an- nual premium life policies will be, on the average, something less than those heretofore charged. The company makes other i'm provements, and offers other inducements to persons in quest of sound life insurance. The modified plan of endowment policies is very liberal and satisfactory. To all inquiring minds we commend careful perusal of the advertised announcement of the company's new propositions. It is well weighed and clear in every word.
