UNION MUTUAL,
LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY,
PORTLAND, MAINE.
JOHN e. DewETT, President.
PORTLAND, MAINE.

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 are framed according to
the laws of Maine to which you have access, and In
The LAWS OF THE STATE REGARDING IN
SURANCE ARE, IN GREAT MANY CASES.
INTRICATE AND UNINTELLIGIBLE, to the av-
pany, YOU MAY FIND IT DIFFICULTY 10 AS
CERTAIN YOUR EXACT RIGHTS UNDER YOUR
Foley Few lawyers, even, understand the gen.
erai 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
your insurance are quite different from what you
THE INSURANCE LAWS OF MAINE ARE
FEW AND SIMPLE. You can easily obtain pre-
feet You may be certain, therefore, if y0u insure
in the Union Mutual that you get exactly what
you WANT that If any question arises regarding the
can be easily and speedily determined according to
laws and principles which you understand instead
OF being governed and controlled by laws and de-
cisl ms Ct which you have no knowledge.
THE INSURANCE LAWS OF YOUR OWN
STATE ARE MORE LIBERAL AND EOUITABLE
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 are continued in force for their ful
amount until the policy holders has received in
such con inued insurance the valne of the payment
he has made.
MUTUAL is UBJECT TO THIS LAW. Its prac-
tical working is shown by this illustration: If
person, aged 35, pays three premiums on 25 year
endowment policy and tails to pay the fourth pre-
MUM, the policy by virtue of this law and entirely
independent of any action violition of the COM
pany will continue in force five years and 342 days
loBger The extensions vary with the class of poll
cy and number of premiums paid, but are axed by
law for each and every case.
THE MANAGEMENT OF THE UNION MUTU-
AL is BY A BOARD OF DIRECTORS ALMOST
WHOLLY COMPOSED OF WELLKNOWN AND
PR0MINEN L CITIZENS OF YOUR OWN STATE.
Their names are 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 the pes ms who control it is of great Importance
and significance.
THE CONDITION OF THE UNION MUTUAL
AS TO ASSETS, LIABILITIES AND FINANCIAL
STANDING is ANNUALLY INVESTIGATED BY
YOUR OWN COMMISSIONER OF INSURANCE.
Th 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.
If, therefore, the Union Mutual possessed no ad-
vantagee peculiar to itself, as distinguished from
other companies, it would be to your advantage to
insure in it, 1t is certainly very much SO when you
consider the many inducements it presents In ad-
dition to these considerations.
