MISLEADING AND FALsE.-The article in
last weeks Caledonian in relation to my
shortest and simplest policy" written
by Brother Sargent of the "Etna" will
bear investigating Just a little bit" In
the first place, l challenge Brother Sar-
gent to show me life insurance policy,
written by any company represented in
this vicinity, that contains the medical
examination in full l have a policy in
the Htna that contains no application
whatever. The application of my COM
pany is very brief, for several reasons.
1t is absolutely incontestable, non-forfeit-
able and without restrictions after the
second year, whereas their contract is the
most ironclad sof any written, to my
knowledge. They restrict residence in
the southern country during portion
of the year, and absolutely forbid all ex-
ira hazardous occupations, suicides, ETC.,
etc, during the whole term of the poll
cy, with privilege of voiding any policy,
if proved that you have made any wrong
statement in the application, or if you
become incorporate. Secondly-my con-
tract does contain the Massachusetts, in
surance act of 1887 in plain figures.
This act in few simple words says that
at the end of the second and every sub
sequent year, any policy holder of any
Massachusetts, Co. who desires for any
reason to discontinue his insurance,
can do So and to withdraw in cash the
entire sum he has paid in to the COM
pany, more than was absolutely necessary
to carry his risk. In order to make it
doubly clear these cash values are re-
corded in plain figures in every policy
when written, as well as the paid up val
ues, which are payable at death, or at
the end of the endowment period, and
in my company give cash dividend every
year. Please bear in mind that no other
state has such a law, that the Ktna
gives no cash values whatever, the paid
I'D values (which are without dividends)
are not payable till the third year, and
are much smaller than mine. My COM
pany is purely mutual, dividing the pro-
fits between the policy holders every
