We think this excellent Association de-
serves special notice, and therefore call at
tentlon to some of its leading features.
I. This Life Association is conducted
strictly on the Natural Premium Plan,
which guarantees the payment of policies
in full at death, or one half at Erpeetan-
GU, if assured elects to take such amount.
2. 1t also provides Guarantee and a
SafetyFund for the protection of the pol
icy-holder.
3. The premiums of the Association
are fixed as low as prudence and safety
will permit, and provision. is made for the
reduction of future premiums by dividends
from the Safety Fund.
a. At the end of Life Expectancy the
policy holder if he elects, may draw one
half of the face of his policy in cash, as a
surrender value. BY this plan he can pro-
tect those dependent upon him during their
years of helplessness, and should he live to
see them selfsupporting, he can enjoy his
savings in his old age
5. Policies are ineontestabIe after two
years.
The Policies of the Company are as free
from restrictions as is CONSTANT with pru-
dence; all its terms are distinctly and
definitely stated ; no one can compute the
extent of the benefit eminating from Life
insurance Association, conducted as this
one is. 1t is at once protector of widows
and orphans, and monument to the most
advanced Spirit of the Nineteenth Centu-
ry, and one to which the citizens of Staun-
ton and Virginia can point with enviable
pride.
