MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE GO.
OF NEW YORK.
IS THE OLDEST IN THE UNITED STATES AND
THE LARGEST IN THE WORLD.
Since organization to the present time, it has paid and now holds on
policies not yet due the enormous sum of $,716,000,000.
Its dividend record is unsurpassed by any other company in the world.
It protects your dividends in case of death and provides for your old age.
See that your policy has this clause inserted in it.
As compound results are the source of life of all the old line companies,
wh*t is best for the company should be best for the insured. And for best
results take a policy in the grand old MUTUAL LIFE.
Fathers see to it that the daughter, the pride of your heart, when as
sailed by the vicissitudes of life and touched by the cr u®l .hand of fate, shall
be provided with a guaranteed income lor life. The MU fUAL LIFE, the
strongest financial institution known on the globe—twice as large as the
Bank ot England—writes that guarantee.
And to the patriotic soldier who feels called upon to avenge the wrongs
to his country, we say don’t forget the loved ones at home the Mutual Life is
prepared to take care of all. And for the benefit of those who have a policy
in this grand old company we give the following extract from a letter ot the
president, Richard A. McCurdy:
M I wish you to assure every policy-holder in this Company
That his rights will be fully protected under all circumstances
* and tha no one need hesitate to respond to the call of patriot
ism or duty through fear of the forfeiture of his policy.
RICHARD A. McCURDY, President. /
