The LEADER was remembered by Mr..

The skating rink at Keefe's Hall is the

the passenger traffic on the continental

FACTS AID FIGURES DON'T llE


IT Is A WE'LL KNOWN
FACT that strength and cheapness
in Life Insurance consist in the
rate of interest obtained by the
Company insured in.
The Premiums charged for
ABSOLUTE SAFETY and by
legal requirement are based upon
established table of mortality and
the superstition that only four per
cent interest can be realized.
Isit nota fact that the NORTH
WESTERN MUTUAL Is the
strongest of the ten largest Amer
lean Companies, having reached
that place nine years ago and
maintained it ever since? Why?
Because of a careful selection of
risks and thigh rate ofinterest re-
ceived on the choicestinvestments.
UNDERSTANDABLE SECURITY
having over SIS, 100000 of loans
secured by first mortgage on real
estate principally in the Western
Statcs) valued at nearly $5O,0OO,-
900.
The GREAT WONDER is that
our shrewd inanciers of the West
will send their millions of dol
lars in life premiums to Eastern
Companies confined in their loans
to their own State or City, where
the Eastern Companies are con-
tent to realize 5 per cent annually
on their Investment; and without a
higher rate than 4 per cent inter-
est no dividend would be possible,
except from the saving in mortal
ity and expenses.
Nowthe Northwestern has aver
aged over 7 per cent. and conse-
quently not only has, but divides
the extra 9 per cent. in the shape
of dividends to its policy holders.
Therefore is it not a plain fact
why its dividends have surpassed
all others of the ten largest Com
panies for the past ten years.
Western rates of interest may
decline in sympathy with Eastern
rates but can never reach the same
level, hence if you want to insure
your life in the strongest, and on
account of its large dividends, the
cheapest Company, and you take
time to think, you will always
select the Northwestern Mutual in
preference to all others. CALL
AND BE
Yours TRULY,
J. w. BRUNER,
General Agent.
