UNION MUTUAL
LIFE INSURANCE. COMPANY,
PORTLAND, MAINE.
JOHN z. DeNVT TTT, President.

The reasons why you-a resident of Maine
should insure in this company in preference to any
is A MAINE INSTITUTION. It's business is
conducted and its policies framed according 70
the laws Of Maine, TO which you have access, and In
respect to which you are generally Informed.
The LAWS OF THE STATE RhGAhDtN3 IN
SURANCE ARE IN A GRE II MANY CASES,
INTRICATE AND UNlNTELIdGIBLE, to the av-
erage man If You insure in some other state com
pany, YOU MAY FIND 1T DIFFICULT TO AS
CERTAIN YOUR EXACT RIGHTS UNDER YOUR
POLICY. Few lawyers even, understand the gen.
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
your Insurance are quite different from what you
desT ed or anticipated.
THE INSURANCE LAWS OF MAINE ARE
FEW AND SIMPLE You can easily obtain pre-
else infOrmation respecting their meaning and ef-
feet. You may be certain, therefore, II you insure
IN the Union Mutual that you get exactly what
disposition OF your policy, or your rights under it, it
can be easily and speedily de ermned according to
laws and principles which you understand instead
Of being governed and controlled by laws and
eisi ms Of which you have no knowledge.
TdE INSURANCE LAWS OF YOUR OWN
STATE ARE MORE LIBERAL AND ECU TABLE
THAN THOSE OF ANY OTHER STATE. The
Maine NoDforfeiture Law protects all policies from
forfeiture after three premiums have been paid by
reason of failure to pay any subsequent premium.
Such policies continued in force for their full
amount until the policy holders has received in
he has made.
EVERY POLICY ISSUED BY THE UNION
MUTUAL Is SU BJECT 10 THIS LAW. Its prac-
tica working Is shown by this illustration: If
person, aged 30, pays three premiums 20 ye
endowment policy, and tails to pay the fourth pre-
MUM, the policy BY virtue of this law and entirely
independent of any action or viOltion of the COM
pany will continue 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 AIUTU-
Al. Is BY A BOARD OF DIRECTORS ALMOST
WHOLLY COMPOSED OF WELI-KNOWN AND
PROMINENf 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 outit contracts fairly,
reasonably and promptly; and in this respect, your
personal knowledge of the character and standing
of the pers ms who control it is of great Importance
and significance.
TIE CONDITION OF THE UNION MUTUAL
AS TO ASS ErS LIABILITIES AND FINA NCIAL
STANDING IS ANNUALLY INVESTIGATED BY
YOUR OWN lMMISSlONER OF INSURANCE.
Fh results OF his examination stated in detail
in his annual report, which you can easily consult.
You have thei efore in his regard the guaranty of
the endorsement of an official Of whose char4c,e
capacity and fidelity you have personal knowledge.
If, therefore, the Union Mutual possessed no ad-
vantages peculiar to it-eif 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
