UNION MUTUAL.
LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY,
PORTLAND, MAINE.
ENEHN II FNa EFSHrxS FymossEoz,s
JOHN e. DewRTT, President.

The reasons why you--a resident of Maine
should insure in this company in preference to any
other. are obvious.
IT is A MAINE INSTITUTION. Its business is
conducted and its policies framed according to
the laws Of Maine, to which you have access and in
respect to which you are generally informed.
THE LAWS OF THE STATE REGARDING IN
SURANCE ARE, IN A GREAT MANY CASES
INTRICATE AND UNINTELLIGIBLE to the ay,
erage man If you insure in some other State com
pany YOU MAY FIND IT DIFFICULT TO as
CERTAIN YOUR EXACT RIGHTS UNDER YOUR
eral laws, and fewer still the insurance laws of
other States and you may discover, when you come
to the test, that the actual position and results of
desired or anticipated
THE INSURANCE LAWS OF MAINE ARE
FEW AND SIMPLE. You can easily obtain pre-
else information respecting their meaning and eff
feet. You may be certain, therefore, if You insure
in the Union Mutual that you get exactly what
disposition of your policy, your rights under it it
can be easily and speedily determined according to
laws and principles which you understand instead
OF being governed and controlled by laws and de-
csi9 of which you have no knowledge.
THE INSURANCE LAWS OF YOUR OWN
STATE ARE MORE LIBERAL AND EQUITABLE
THAN THOSE OF ANY OTHER STATE. The
Maine Nonforfeiture Law protects all policies from
forfeiture after three premiums have been paid by
reason OF failure to pay any subsequent premium.
Such policies continued i'll force for their full
amount until the policy-holders has received in
such continued insurance the value of the payment
he has made.
EVERY PoLICY ISSUED BY THE UNION
MUTUAL Is SUBJECT TO THIS LAW. Its prac-
tical working is shown by this illustration: If a
person, aged So, pays three premiums on a 2s year
endowment policy, and tails to pay the fourth pre-
MUM, the policy by virtue of this law and entirely
Independent of any action violation of the COM
pany, will centinur in force five years and 342 days
longer. The extensions vary with the class of poll
cy and number of premiums paid, but are fixed by
law for each and every case.
THE MANAGEMENT OF THE UNION MUTU-
AL is BY A BOARD OF DIRECTORS ALMOST
WHOLLY COMPOSED OF WELL-KNOWN AND
PROMINENT CITIZENS OF YOUR OWN STATE.
Their names guaranty of an honest, faithful
and efficient conduct of its affairs. The value OF
your insurance depends entirely upon the certain
ty that company will carry out its contracts fairly
reasonably and promptly; and in this respect, your
personal knowledge of the character and standing
OF tho persons who control is of great Importance
and sgnificanee.
THE CONDITION OF THE UNION MUTUAL
AS TO ASSETS, LIABILITIES AND FINANCIAL.
STANDING IS ANNUALLY INVESTIGATED BY
YOUR OWN COMMISSIONERS OF INSURANCE.
The results of his examination stated in detail
In his annual report, which you can easily consult
You have, therefore, in this regard the guaranty of
the endorsement of an official of whose character
capacity and fidelity you have personal knowledge
1t, therefore, the Union Mutual possessed no ad-
vantages peculiar to itself, as distinguished from
other companies, it would be to your advantage to
insure in it, 1t is certainly very much when you
consider the many inducements it presents in ad-
dition to these considerations
