IF You HAVE A LIFE INSURANCE Pol.
10y, READ IT CAREFULLY.


1t becomes any one holding a Life
insurance Policy to read over carefully
all the conditions and agreements,
printed or written on their Policy, as
many Companies make stipulations that
are unfair 10 Policy Holders, and many
of the insured would find it task to
carry out, or live up to. One company
say in IA clause of their agreement that
"lf within five years from the date
thereof, the insured becomes habitually
Incorporate, or so far Incorporate as to
induce delrum tremens, then and in
either such case, the Company may
within said five years, but during his
lifetime, cancel this policy, and there
upon shall be abSolved from all liability
upon the same" Another Company
say, "rhe insurance shall be forfeited if
death occurs in state of drunkenness,
or from any accident or violence re-
ceived while In that state, or from dis
ease produced by or resulting from the
occasional or habitual use of alcoholic
or narcotic stimulants: also that if there
shall have been delirum tremens, or any
injury to, or impairment of the health
from such use, the Policy shall be for
feited and terminated" On the con-
trary THE MUTUAL LIFE INSUR-
move all restrictions as to residence and
travel, or engaging in hazardous occu-
pations after two years from the date of
issue, and if a member becomes unfortu-
nate in his habits later in life, and still
carries out his part of the contract by
payment of his premiums, they can see
no good reason to throw him and his
beneticiaries out into the cold world to
shift for themselves.
Equity, the watchword of this great
Company, demands that no just obiga-
ton shall be avoided; and no man.
woman or child can truthfully charge
this Company with voluntarily with
holding that which was his or her due.
Anyone seeking Life Insurance should
investigate carefully these points. and
choose the Company that embOdies in
its policies the most liberal ideas and
affords to its Policy-Holders the best
Security and Protection.
THE MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE
COMPANY of New York does all this.

SAMOAN AFFAIRS.

Tired Of the white Mans Yoke.
APIA, Samoa, Feb. 29.-A new crisis
seems approaching in Samoan affairs. A
few weeks ago it was thought that the
trouble among the natives was at an
end. Chief Justice Ide had persuaded
the leaders of the would-be rebels of
Anna to submit themselves and their
alleged causes of complaint against the
government for his decision. This they
did and the leaders were duly punished.
No sooner was the trouble with the
Anna natives apparently arranged than
those at the east and most populous
part OF Upholetaua declared their inten-
ti0n of resisting the white mans gov
eminent" The chief justice and presiv
dent have been occupied the last
four weeks in unHuccessiul
endeavors to arrange this latter diff
Guilty. II is thought the natives will
refuse to pay taxes or otherwise con-
form to the government decrees, trust
ing that it will not be powerful enough
10 enforce its order. The present situa-
tiOn is critical one. With an empty
treasury and the greater part Of the
natives thoroughly disgusted with the
gystem of tripartite control and the
method of administering it, there seems
but little hope for the Immediate future
OF Samoa. English ana German war
