The insurance of the lives Of women
and the employment OF women as So
licitors by insurance companies is a
comparatively new idea, but Il has be-
come very popular and is growing
rapidly There are probably 1000
women i'm the United States today who
make their living i'm the insurance
business and they have been so sue
cessful in securing business and earn
ing large commissions that it may al
ready be considered an established
profession. and women insurance
agents will hereafter work on the
same terms and under the same con-
ditions as men.
The big life insurance companies all
have women solicitors and the mana
gers are unanimous I'm commencing
them. The New York Life was the
pioneer and employed its first women
agents in Chicago about eight years
ago.
The managers say that a larger
proportion of women who attempt to
solicit life insurance are successful
than the men. They show more tact,
they are more intelligent in collecting
and presenting facts, in handling their
patrons; they are more persistent in
following up arguments TO their
clients and are not so easily discour-
aged. They work among men, but
chiefly with women.
Mrs. Leland Stanford is said to carry
a larger ariiountfof Insurance than any
other woman in the world. Her po-
lcies amount TO more than a million
dollars. Mrs. Frank o. Lowden, of
Chicago. carries S25O,00O, probably
more than any other woman i'm the
West, and Mrs McReynolds carries
