Applications of Women.

From the date Of its incor ration IN
1845 up to and including May, 1903,
the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Com
pany refused to issue policies on the
lives of women. On June l OF last year
the following notice was placed IN the
hands of the agents Of the Mutual
Benefit:
"The Company will consider applica-
tions for not more than $4,000 on the
lives of women who are In receipt OF
an income from their own labor or
property and who expect to pay thsir
own premiums. Such policies Will be
made payable to the Insured or their
estates, or to anyone dependent on them
for support, or who would sustain COM
mensurate pecuniary loss by reason or
their death.
Policies issued on the lives of women
will in all respects be similar to poll
cies issued on the lives Of men,"
I shall be pleased to furnish addition
al information on request.
