Breaks The Dividend Record.
It las always held the record securely, but the claim paid by the compa
ny upon a policy issued to Mr. Mark Banks, of Connecticut, the particulars
of which are given here, shows that THE MUTUAL LIFE has in this in
stance eclipsed all previous dividend results:
Mr. Bankswasginsured for
The dividends amounted to. ‘• •••W””.
Paid to the estate ..........A 417,0te» l
How does this happen? Mr. Banks paid all the premiums m cash, and
he did this for fifty-tour years. He did not utilize any portion of the divi
dends in payment of premiums, but permitted the Company to invest these
for his benefit. Here are the particulars:
Policy No. leaned March 5,1845. Amount J 5.000.
Age 40. Annual premium, $l6O. Eife Plan.
Dividend additions paid in 1898,
Amount of death claim rao nn
54 Premiums paid by insured 'l_L——
Realized to estate over premiums paid $8,388.00
Being nearly equal to a return of all the premiums paid with two and a halt (2|) per
cent, compound interest per annum, with insurance increasing annually from so,voo
paid to the estate were 139 per cent, of all the premiums
paid for the insurance.
Mr. Mark Banks was the treasurer and cashier of the Greenwich Savings
Bank, and died at the good old age of ninetjr'-four. He appreciated the
power of compound interest, and his wisdom is exemplified by the result of
bin method ot investment —a result that has never been equalled by a policy
holder in any other company in the world. t

A Prominent Pbyslclan.
A prominent New York physician
in discussing the merits of Ripans
Tabules with a brother M. D. said:
Several yearn ago I asserted that

one that would help the whole hu
man race—nothing could be better
than to procure the Roosevelt Hos
pital prescription, wkith u tkt bant

be put up in the form of a ketchup
ana distributed among the poor."

on Broadway in New York City.
A reporter who went there to learn
how Bipeaa Tab

bought a five-ceni
carton and asked:
“Do you have
much call for
these?”
He was referred

•‘The sale of.Ripans Tabuhs fa
constant and is increasing, due
especially to the influential character
of the testimonials in the daily press,
and growing out of these, through
the recommendatkm of friend to
friend. Satisfaction with them is
very geueraL When eoce they are
begun I notice that a penna- mt
customer for teem is made. This, 1
believe, is through their intrinsic
