The Equitable. Statement.

Past success, present prosperity and fu-
ture promise are three most prominent OBJ
ject lessons to be derived from the annual
statement Of the Equitable Life Assurance
Society, published today, for the business
OF the year just ended. Past success in
that every reform which the Equitable has
introduced has been an actual one. cor
rectins abuses which had crept into the
conduct of the business, and warranted
as shown by their effect on the business,
and in that through these reforms the So
ciety has been enabled to reach a posi-
ton among the companies surpassed by
none, and equaled by few. In the short
space of forty-two years, the youngest of
the large companies has accomplished re-
suits far beyond those ever accomplished
by any other company in a similar pc
Rod of time. For the figures tustifying
these statements the reader is referred to
the advertisement of the company in an
other column.
