JOHN L. DEWITT, 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 are framed according to
the laws OF Maine, to which you have access and in

INTRICATE AND UNINTELLIGIBLE, to the Av-
pany, YOU MAY FIND IT DIFFICULT TO AS
CERTAIN YOUR EXACT RIGHTS UNDER YOUR
III i IST sven, gnaeIstand the gen.
other States; and you may discover, when Won 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 or 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-
cisi ms of which you have no knowledge
THE INSURANCE LAWS OF YOUR OWN
STATE ARE MORE LIBERAL, AND EOUITA BILE
THAN THOSE OF ANY OTHER STATE. The
Maine Nonforfeiture Law protects all policies from
forfeiture, after three premiums have been paid by
such policies are Continued in force for their full
amount until the policy holders has received in
such continued insurance the Valne OF the payment
EVERY POLICY ISSUED BY THE UNION
MUTUAL is SUBJECT TO THIS LAW. Its prae4
teal working Is shown by this illustrations: II q
person, aged 80, pays three premiums on a 20 year
endowment policy, and fails to pay the fourth pre-
MUM, the policy by virtue Of this law and entirely
independent Of any action or violition 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 WELL-KNOWN AND
PROMINENT 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 utits contracts fairly,
reasonably and promptly; and in this respect, your
personal knowledge of the character and standing
OF the persns VINO control it is Of great Importance
and significance.
THE CONDITION OF THE UNION MUTUAL.
AS TO ASS ErS, LIABILITIES AND FINANCIAL
STANDING Is ANNUALLY INVESTIGATED BY
YOUR OWN COMMISSIONERS OF INSURANCE.
Tn 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 adj
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 adj
dition to these considerations.
