ALL over NEBRASKA
The Midwest Life.


On December l3t of this year The
Midwest Life had written as much
insurance as it did in the year 1909.
The gain over last year. therefore,
will be the amount placed in Decem-
Der. The Midwest Life now has over
two and One-half millions Of insurance
in force on the lives of Nebraska men
and women and an income amounting
to one hundred thousand dollars a
year. This has been accomplished in
less than five years. When solicited
by an agent of an eastern company
for life insurance stop and think the
situation over. Weigh the advantages
and disadvantages Of the transaction.
See if il does not appeal tn you as
rational business proposition To pat
ronize Nebraska company. You
know the reason why. The money
stays in Nebraska not only in good
times. but in panicS and financial de
pressiOnS as we'll. The Midwest Life
issues all the standard forms Of life
insurance policies at reasonable rates.
