other, are obvious.

conducted and its policies framed according to
the laws of Maine, to which You have access, and in

SURANCE ARE, IN A GREAT MANY CASES,
INTRICATE AND UNINTELLIGIBLE, to the av-
pany, YOU MAY FIND IT DIFFICULT TO AS
CERTAIN YOUR EXACT RIGHTS UNDER YOUR
POLICY. Few lawyers, even, understand the gem
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
desired or anticipated.

FEW AND SIMPLE. You can easily obtain pre-
else information respecting their meaning and eff
feet. You may be certain therefore, if Won insure

can be easily and speedily determined according to
laws and principles which you understand instead
cisions 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

tical working is shown by this illustration: If q
person, aged 35, pays three premiums on rs 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 poii
cy and number Of premiums paid, but are fixed by
law for each and every case.
THE MANAGEMENT OF THE UNION MUTU-
Ais BY BOARD OF DIRECTORS ALMOST
WHOLLY COMPOSED OF WELL-KNOWN AND
PROMINENT CITIZENS OF YOUR OWN STATE.

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 persons who control it is of great importance
and significance.
THE CONDITION OF THE UNION MUTUAL
as 10 ASSETS, LIABILITIES AND FINANCIAL
STANDING is ANNUALLY INVESTIGATED BY
YOUR OWN COMMISSIONERS OF INSURANCE,
The results of his examination are 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

vantages peculiar to itself, as distinguished from
other companies, 1t would be to your advantage to
insure in it. 1t is certainly very much SO when Won
consider the many inducements it presents in ad-
dttion to these considerations.
