A BEAUTIFUL
WORK OF ART
Minnesota Mutual Life Insur-
ance COmpany's Contribu-
tiOn to Art Lovers.

Among the many and beautiful calen-
dars that have appeared for the year
1903 from the different firms and COM
panies who annually seek in this man
ner to place before the public the mer-
it's of their various businesses and
wares, is noticed a really elegant pro-
duction of the artists brash issued by
Minnesota Mutual Life Insurance COM
pany.
1t is altogether aside from the COM
monality of such matters, in that 1t
deals with tangible subject-The
New State Capitol of Minnesota.
The onlooker has a tangible some
thing to grasp, he or she has seen the
original, or hopes at some time in the
near future to feast the eye upon it's
architectural beauties. Again, too
another sense than the mere apprecia-
ton of beauty is stirred: a feeling of
patriotism is felt, for, whe, within the
borders of the state, does not feel a
justifiable pride in the erection and
completion of this ponderous edifice?
1t Is not a mere "chromo," this call
endar. Its impressions are taken from
the best steel plates that twentieth
century skill could produce. an art now
almost forgotten. Together with the
artistically beautiful features of the
picture it combines the characteristic
of being architecturally and mathemat-
acally correct in every essential part.
Besides having issued this calendar,
which in reality is but an outgrowth of
larger and better enterprise on the
part of the company, the Minnesota
Mutual Life has issued and had framed
a large picture, identicaliy The same as
that which In miniature adorns the
calendar. To every bank, public school

out the state, one Of these pictures will
be presented in the near future.
Its phenomenal growth is responsible
for this liberality on the part of the
company. It is understood that giant
strides are to be taken in the not re-
mote future which will place it in the
front rank of such corporations genert
ally, as 1T is now among those of it's
own state.
1t may not be known to all, but the
Minnesota Mutual Life Insurance COM
pany is the only old-line organization
operating under the laws Of Minnesota
as ganized hereunder. It@has been
predicted by men of more than ordi-
nary far sightedness and sagacity that
within FIVE years it will be the largest
and most far-reaching financial organ
ization in the State of Minnesota.
Mr.. P. A. Egan, the State Manager
for Minnesota, has recently added to
his Minnesota Agency force much
new and brilliant blood, among others,
Mr.. John D. Caldwell, formerly with
the New York Life at Chicago; Mr..
Harry e. George, formerly State Man
ager for Minnesota for the Canada
Life; and Mr.. Willian Woodhead, for
many years with the Northwestern
Mutual Life, and latterIy the District
| Manager at St. Paul for the Prudential
Life. and many others whose services
have been found advantageous.
Mr.. A. S. Apgar, who, during the
past year, was the District Manager
for several Northern Counties, made
such good record that he was promot-
ed to the management of the .Compa-
ny's Minneapolis Agency, with head
quarters in the Commercial Building, at
the beginning of the present year.
Among other Innovations, the COM
| pany Is establishing a Wonan's De-
partment at'the Home Office, of which
it is announced formal notice will soon
be made.
This company is now writing insur-
ance In Minnesota and the Dakotas at
a rate exceeding 1900, 900 per annum;
and more, prospects on the list than the
field force can mana
The aims and obiectssof the company
nave always been to attend to the in
terests Of the state first and foremost
to keep as much as possible of Minne-
sofas money within the borders Of
minnesota. In this 1audable effort 1t
has met with more than success.
