good many men who energetic and forenahueu
enough otherwise are always "agwine" to take out
life insurance and too often they die "agwine. An
old nroyerb reads: 1.-The road to hell is paved win
good intentions" If you happen to be passing along
that way at any time, please note that many pocK

Meat eggs vegetables, clothing, all the necessl
ties of life seem to be constantly costing more
There is one necessity however, which is granq
exception the cost of life insurance. The Mutual
Life policyholder finds that his premium payments
are no no larger than formerly On the contrary h
annual dividends have increased steadily for severa
successive years. and this means that the actua
cost of his insurance has been growing correspond
ingly less If you pocyholder in The Mutua
Life YOU are partner in its business. No profits &c
to stockholders because there are no stockholders
You get your share of the profits in the form OF div
dends, whether under the terms of your policy yol
receive them every year of every five, ten fteen OF
twenty years. Ruskn says, There is something I'm
pressive in mere size" There are many things I'M
pressiye about The Mutual Life; but merely ON the
basis of size isn't it impressive to realize that its
assets amount to $500 100000? 1t pays to Its
policyhoders $37754 every minute for every eight
hour working day in the year. How many minutes
nav do you think should be coming your way some
time?
Sidney Brooks writing in THE North American
Review for October 1912 remarks "Of late The
Mutual Life has led the entire world of insurance in
devisng sound, liberal and ingenious schemes fol
meeting the needs of policyholders who have been
compelled to discontinue the payment of their pre-
miums and in formulating an attractive series OF
options open to benefciaries the death of the
insured No company, indeed has done more tc
make the interests of its policyholders the guiding
principle of its whole policy and administration
