Assets, $12,000,000. “A Policy of Life Insurance is the cheapest ana safest mode of making a certain provision for One's family.’ — BEN. FRANKLIN. “Once the question was, ‘Can a Christian man rightfully seek Life Insurance ?’ The question now is, ‘Can a Christian man justify himself in neglecting such a duty?’ "’"—HENRY WARD BEECHER. Such is the dicta of two of America’s greatest minds—one speaking to us from the age of patriotism, the other from the age of progress. In the wonderful mutations of business and science which the past half century has witnessed, itmay be urged that neither the application .of scientific discovery to the establishing of a higher civilization, nor the effects of iiberal economic laws, nor of laws fecilitating commercial and fiaancial exchange, have been as wonderful as the progress in the science of Life Insurance or as beneficial to the human race. 3 = Thirty years ago a man who applied for an Insurance policy, besides conveying to his neighbors unpleasant suspicions of his mental decay, had a rather hard bargain on his hands. Every clausé of his policy was iron-clad in favor of the Company It was a purely Die to Win Game, And not only die to win, but you had’ to die “jest so.” Step into Florida, parts of Louisiana end Texas; go to sea—and a whole lot of other places too numerous to mention—and-y¥qu were either charged an extra rate for your cussedness, or your policy became worthless in the event of death. Errors or misstatements in your application and your medical examination subjected you to the horrible possibility of paying in a lot of money and winding up “im the soup.” Your annual premiums must be paid according to the strict letter of the law; on the stroke of the clock, as it was stated in'tle policy. One hour, yea, one minute, and your savings of years have been swallowed up by the ravenous monster. Well, all this has changed, and today the man who, having a family does not proudly wave aloft his Insurance policy, announces himself as behind the times, mentally weak, morally improvident if not viciously selfish, and if he bave the appearance of good health his extraordinary neglect to dothe sensible thing by himself and family may arouse in bis good neighbors the terrible suspicion that he is the “‘whited sepulchre” of some loathsome and hidden disease. _ Today your Insurance policy is one of the Simplest [Promises to Pay Known to legal or business “forms, It simply says, “Pay your premiums and we will pay your insurance. ” Look at your lovely wife and your beautiful children. Look at your widowed mother, the hand that cared for you inthe hours of your weakness, and is now resting gently upon you, and remembereyvery hour that passes now is hurrying you along to your end, : Take advantage of what Science and centuries of experience have placed in your reach by Insurance. To that levely wife. to those prattling innocents, to that saintly form whose eyes, lacking the lustre of youth, and hair white with the frost of age, yet tell you a tale of love and devotiom to duty. Give to these, we say, the assurance that your love end your duty extend beyond he grave. If you go to South American mines, to South African diamond fields or to partake of the succulent orange on its native Floridian heath—well, we guess you'll be a little more careful of yourself than when breathing the pure air, and attending to your routine labor at home jn the pine clad Sierras, Should you take a policy today, and in a few years Your Pay-gravel is worked out, Well, we won’t throw you overboard. You have acquired an equity, proportioned to your. payments, In your policy, and that we will give you most cheerfully. But when an Insurance Company says to you—as does the Manhattan Life Insurance Company of New York—“‘My friend, Iam forty years of age and in my day have seen many great financial panics which have shaken the thrones of princes and tottered your Banks and your Railroads, but at no time in my life has any creditor of mine had slightest cause to fear my stability, look where you may to invest your money securely in America, and you will find that ‘the ‘promise to pay’ signed by your own Government, is the only bond in the market rated as more sound and staple than myown.” Having acquired this information, suppose a special agent of the U. 8. Treasury should call on you today and say: “The Government would like to sell you bonds for any amount between $1,000 and $30,000, and if it is not convenient for you to make the investment at once, we will allow you to pay for the bonds in ten equal annua, installments!” And suppose in addition to this, the Government, wishing to make this the most desirable investment in the world, should stipulate in the bond not only to pay them at the end of the term, but in case of your previous death, to pay them to your family, and. at the same time release your family from paying any further money, anid you not at once close with such an offer? And yet this is surance Company,of New York, has done and is doing. An ordinary endowment Life Insurance policy is a More profitable investment than a Government Bond. A Four per cent U. 8.

Assets, $12,000,000. “A Policy of Life Insurance is the cheapest ana safest mode of making a certain provision for One's family.’ — BEN. FRANKLIN. “Once the question was, ‘Can a Christian man rightfully seek Life Insurance ?’ The question now is, ‘Can a Christian man justify himself in neglecting such a duty?’ "’"—HENRY WARD BEECHER. Such is the dicta of two of America’s greatest minds—one speaking to us from the age of patriotism, the other from the age of progress. In the wonderful mutations of business and science which the past half century has witnessed, itmay be urged that neither the application .of scientific discovery to the establishing of a higher civilization, nor the effects of iiberal economic laws, nor of laws fecilitating commercial and fiaancial exchange, have been as wonderful as the progress in the science of Life Insurance or as beneficial to the human race. 3 = Thirty years ago a man who applied for an Insurance policy, besides conveying to his neighbors unpleasant suspicions of his mental decay, had a rather hard bargain on his hands. Every clausé of his policy was iron-clad in favor of the Company It was a purely Die to Win Game, And not only die to win, but you had’ to die “jest so.” Step into Florida, parts of Louisiana end Texas; go to sea—and a whole lot of other places too numerous to mention—and-y¥qu were either charged an

extra rate for your cussedness, or your policy became worthless in the event of death. Errors or misstatements in your application and your medical examination subjected you to the horrible possibility of paying in a lot of money and winding up “im the soup.” Your annual premiums must be paid according to the strict letter of the law; on the stroke of the clock, as it was stated in'tle policy. One hour, yea, one minute, and your savings of years have been swallowed up by the ravenous monster. Well, all this has changed, and today the man who, having a family does not proudly wave aloft his Insurance policy, announces himself as behind the times, mentally weak, morally improvident if not viciously selfish, and if he bave the appearance of good health his extraordinary neglect to dothe sensible thing by himself and family may arouse in bis good neighbors the terrible suspicion that he is the “‘whited sepulchre” of some loathsome and hidden disease. _ Today your Insurance policy is one of the Simplest [Promises to Pay Known to legal or business “forms, It simply says, “Pay your premiums and we will pay your insurance. ” Look at your lovely wife and your beautiful children. Look at your widowed mother, the hand that cared for you inthe hours of your weakness, and is now resting gently upon you, and remembereyvery hour that passes now is hurrying you along to your end, : Take advantage of what Science and centuries of experience have placed in your reach by Insurance. To that levely wife. to those prattling innocents, to that saintly form whose eyes, lacking the lustre of youth, and hair white with the frost of age, yet tell you a tale of love and devotiom to duty. Give to these, we say, the assurance that your love end your duty extend beyond he grave. If you go to South American mines, to South African diamond fields or to partake of the succulent orange on its native Floridian heath—well, we guess you'll be a little more careful of yourself than when breathing the pure air, and attending to your routine labor at home jn the pine clad Sierras, Should you take a policy today, and in a few years Your Pay-gravel is worked out, Well, we won’t throw you overboard. You have acquired an equity, proportioned to your. payments, In your policy, and that we will give you most cheerfully. But when an Insurance Company says to you—as does the Manhattan Life Insurance Company of New York—“‘My friend, Iam forty years of age and in my day have seen many great financial panics which have shaken the thrones of princes and tottered your Banks and your Railroads, but at no time in my life has any creditor of mine had slightest cause to fear my stability, look where you may to invest your money securely in America, and you will find that ‘the ‘promise to pay’ signed by your own Government, is the only bond in the market rated as more sound and staple than myown.” Having acquired this information, suppose a special agent of the U. 8. Treasury should call on you today and say: “The Government would like to sell you bonds for any amount between $1,000 and $30,000, and if it is not convenient for you to make the investment at once, we will allow you to pay for the bonds in ten equal annua, installments!” And suppose in addition to this, the Government, wishing to make this the most desirable investment in the world, should stipulate in the bond not only to pay them at the end of the term, but in case of your previous death, to pay them to your family, and. at the same time release your family from paying any further money, anid you not at once close with such an offer? And yet this is surance Company,of New York, has done and is doing. An ordinary endowment Life Insurance policy is a More profitable investment than a Government Bond. A Four per cent U. 8.
