THERE is A REASON

Johnson G. Clark Of Detroit sare state
agents for the Mutual Benefit Life In
surance Company for the state of Mich
igan, and their agency is among the
leaders in the amount of new business
produced in the United States each
year. For the past several years an
average of 3S per cent Of the new bus
mess the agency has produced has been
on account of OLD Policy Holders in
creasing their insurance. In 1911 this
class of business amounted to 40 per
cent. There is a reason for this and 1t
is simply because of the fact that those
Michiganders fully appreciate the fact
that NO Life Insurance Company IN
the United States has Such Record
as the Mutual Benefit for giving Each
Member a Square Deal, and that no
Company Guarantees as much IN It's
written contracts. During the thirteen
years that l have represented the COM
pany have had the pleasure of writ
ing applications for the same men as
often as from Two to Five Times, and
am morally certain that there are few
If any Mutual Benefit policy holders in
this section who feel that they
have all the life insurance they
care for in this company, provid-
ed that they felt able to carry more.
Don't YOU think you should like policy
in such a company, too? You owe 1t
to yourself to investigate its record
and policy contracts.

the breech block is shut on the shell.
