Some Comments on the Mutual Benefits New Foncy:

issue new policy forms which are to con-
tain provisions exceeding in iberality
those of the old policies which were
themselves models Of generous dealing.
But here comes most remarkable de-
parture from custom. It has not been
Uncommon for a life insurance company
to make exceptional concessions TO new
policvholders, concessions which were
withheld from the old policyholders,
although the latter were too often taxed
to pay the fiddler The Mutual Benefit,
however, has decided that the old policy
holders have equal claim with the new
policyholders upon its generosity, and
every new privilege or benefit It has IN
corporated in the new policy forms has
been granted to the holders OF policies
already issued. This is mutuall1ty OF the
genuine type.
That there has been nothing to COM
pare with this action of the Mutual Bene-
fit, in recent insurance history, admits
of no denial. We're the company other
wise than the strong and popular com
pany that it is, it might be charged with
indiscretion, but the Mutual Benefit
performs even better than it promises,
and liberal as are the offerings now made
to its policyholders, the Mutual Benefit
management knows that the company
can make good or it would not have en-
tered upon its present course. 1t is
neither the custom nor the need OF the
Mutual Benefit to play to the galleries.
It wins applause by solid merit and hon.
est methods.-The Insurance Observer,
Dec. 2. 1907.

during this year that has excited greater
interest among life insurance companies

The company intends the policy to apply

Growth of business has never been a

growth does not result from putting such
a no1icy on the market as that recently
gotten up and published by the company.
It marks great advance in the liberal1-

that the company with its well-known
cautions and circumspect ways, should
have felt itself enabled to take this long
stride is a gratifying fact to all who are
concerned in the history OF lite insurance

commentary upon governmental plans OF
standardizing policies and stereotyping
their conditions and upon government
restrictions generally, that private com
pany, having no motive other than the
desire to merit and to win public patron
age, should put forward voluntarily a
form of contract which in iberal1ty OF
terms leaves the legal standard policies
far behind. Let US, however, be thank
full that companies still have permission
to 90 one better than the standard poll
cies if they see fit.
The above points which do not exhaust
the beneficial features of the new policy,
are to be made retroactive so far as IS
practicable. They are evidence Of a de-
Termination on the part OF the manage
ment of the Mutual Benefit to excel its
old tranditions as conservative reform
ing company. 1t may be recalled IN
passing that it was this company which
SO far back as 1870 introduced the non
forfeiture principle into its policies,
a principle Subsequently adopted by life
companies generally. Thus it not only
improves its own policies, but it was the
cause of other companies improving
theirs.-Life Insurance Independent, No

BIG POT OF GOLD
DUG UP AT NIGHT.
Continued from page seven.)
discovered the hole, freshly dug.

The article in tne State yesterday
telling Of the suspected hunt for a
"pot" Of gold, started many reminis-
ceaces. There have been a score OF
such hunts for buried treasure. Some
times the search is inspired by dl-
vination conceived in dreams. One
man in the lower part Of this coun-
ty dreamed that between three stumps
he would find buried treasure. The
man found three stumps which cor
responded with his dream-ari i then
he went to work. It is said lat he
dug out every foot of earth included
in the lines embracing the stumps
and perhaps went down until he
struck water, a1d-but what's the
use TO tell the result.
s.Once upon a time,'' as the story
goes. treasure was buried in the
woods where now is the warehouse Of
the Gibbes Machinery company. The
Southern railways freight yards ad-
join this property. Whenever the
Southern purposes extending its
tracks at this spot, the old story gets
circulation in some way or other, and
the laborers work with will, hop
ing that somehow, somewhere they
Will find the buried treasure.
It was recalled yesterday that one
morning the city was startled be-
cause the Methodist churchyard had
been dug up by some one, evidently
booking for a pot Of gold. The ex-
cavation was alongside a wall and
seemed to have been made at a spot
with certain artieular landmarks.
There was also recollection Of the
rumors Of buried treasure in the
state capital grounds.
And this same spot where Mr..
Blackwelder is said to have been
prospecting, has been dreamed Of be-
fore. Among the curious who visited
the place yesterday was one who re-
called that Mr.. Bolton Jones and his
father had hunted for buried treas
ure on this hillside. MI. Jones, who
lives in Brookland and works in the
city, was asked about the matter. He
stated that there had been something
of the kind, although he could not re-
call just what had started them up
on the search. He had also heard
when a boy that treasure had been
buried on -StarkeSs hill, where now
