Tha security of such e large paid up capital, and the well- * Integrity of Ha directors, place c It at ooce qpoo the moat substantial 1 basis. IU plana of operation are both 1 simple and thorough. ~ There are fo be ' ' no notes, credits, at other vexatious ' combinations of pay mrata and proralt- 1 ea. Instead of offering paitidpntita ' certain unknown and future profits. 1 which may never be realised, this Company offers policies of tnsarsnce at each . reduced rates ae really to give tha in- I tared a dividend, In eaah.

There U nothing : , pay for policy-fee, medical examlna- < i Uon, stamps, Ac., and when female* i i Insured there la no extra rati ' charged upon their Uvea. The aaaoci- ; ation offers 'several distinct and easily < ! understood methods by which ode may i take out a policy of life insurance. i r Id the first place, an ordinary policy f U famished at rmlca leas than those charged by other companies.

By another plan, a man can receive i at the end of a specified time (ten, flf- , or more years,) a regular income, . addition to the amountof the policy . which will he paid to hie family at hia , decease. By the endowment plan the i for which tha policy it takeu out, , wlU be paid to the Insured, himself, at the expiration of tha term agreed . upon, and if be should die before the , time specified In the policy lor mid payment the amount will be paid over , to hie heirs within three montha after ; death.

These features, many of them novel, preeent peculiar advantages IB those . - wishing to insure their Urea; and when ta remembered that the Company ia founded upon a cash basis of such solid character, and under thecontrol of such well-known capitalists, there ta no reason to doubt that it wUl toon be the Life Insurance Company in the Lira Insurance Decision.— In the Coiled States District Court in < Memphis, in the case of Mrs. Catharine Bailey, age the RL- Louis Mutual Life Inauranee Company, where action was Brooght to roomer $8,800 sa . her husband's life, which the defendants declined to pay on the ground that the husband had failed to pay the premium fix." three quarters, and that his son, at the Instance of his friends and physicians, called at the office and paid 'the pirraloms'whUe hie father on his death bed. and represented that he was in «s usual health, the , Court 'ruled that tha Company could not' hold to the contract If Dr. Bailey . and repudiate tt If ha died.
