" Life Insurance was 55 years old, and
it set up milestone at this point on its
long and honorable career that is calcu-
lated to impress the American people
with the fact that it has attained a position
in the science Of Life Insurance that no
competition will attempt to dispute. We
refer to the new policies that the company
authorized its agents to offer on and after
January l. They are, without exception,
the fairest, most equitable contracts ever
yet offered those who desire to protect
their wives, children or estates, or to lay
by a competency for old age.
The Record of the Company
For the past IS year, together with the
unequalled liberality of its Policy con-
tracts and its unsurpassed and unsurpass-
able reputation for fair and honorable
dealings with its members, proves that
the Mutual Benefit furnishes the best Lite
Insurance at the lowest cost price.
1 will be pleased to furnish any desired
information about the company, its con-
tracts or rates.
