he lfaFelefS insurance company
up to January I, 1902, had paid policy
holders 'alaims amounting to SAG 6,OS3,.
86S.O5 and will pay policy holders
i, this year between four and five million
dollars.
The Travellers rank first for prompt
payment of claims. as an illustration
| of this. the late John W. Sullivan
| (formerly Of Pine Bluff held a Tray
elers life policy for $4,000 On Decem-
Der /, 1901, he died at Newport, Ark
on December 13 Mrs. Sullivan notified
the company of his death; on Decem.
Der %, just ten days after, Mrs Sulli-
van received a draft for the policy.
The Travellers rank first for prompt
ard forms of guaranteed policies, and
issues them for about 20 per cent less
premium than is charged by other
standard companies writing business
i in Pine Bluff. The Travellers write a
fifteen payment policy for the same
rate as the mutual companies (such
as the New York Life. Mutual Life
Equitable and Massachusetts,
: Clldl " loi ulltI twenty
payment life policy. the saving
of five full years premiums and
getting through paying premiums to
the company in fifteen years instead
of twenty years means great deal to
a policy-holder.
The line Of policies written by the
Travellers include ten, fifteen and
twenty premium policies, ) per cent
gold bonds and endowment policies.
The endowment policies of the
Travellers operate in the same way as
putting money in a savings bank, the
policy holder is insured ali the time
he is depositing premiums with the
company and in addition to the insur
ance, he receives interest on every
dollar he pays them.
Supposing a man is thifty years Of
| age and takes a twenty year SO 600
in the Travellers, if he dies before he
| is fifty years old the company pays
| his family $4,000 in cash. but if he
! lives to be fifty years old he himself
| draws the $4,000 in cash. Should he
not want it all in cash the company
will pay him cash dividend of S.
| 920, and then at his death pay his
| family $4,000, making q total Of Sill
500.
All policies of the Travellers are
written With the latest non-forfeitable
features, and if on account Of inabil-
ity to pay premium the insured does

above twenty year endowment, should

any security. except the policy, So, ,140,
| or the company will keep him insur-
| ed free for ten more years, When the
company will return in cash to the in
sured $39So. O rnearly the entire pro
m;uns paid the fret t20 years, ia fact
| the net cost of the insurance under
| this option is less than $40 a year for
the twenty years on a $4,000 endow-
ment policy
| If, however. the insured pays all the
twenty premiums and lives to be fifty
years Of age when he collects the
policy he has had the benefit of tWen-
ty years insurance for $4,000 at a net
profit to himself of $65.3S year more
than his premium cost him.
A number of prominent business
men and bankers in Pine Bluff are
owners of this kind Of policy in the
Travellers.
