TWO GOOD REASONS FOR JOIHISO THIS ASSOCIATION IM PREFEBE5CE TO INSURING IN ANY COMPANY. 1. It is a purely mutual Association, in which all the profits are divided equitably among the members, and no part of them absorbed by stockholders. For this reason it can insure at lower rates and pay larger dividends than any Western or Southern Company. 2. It is a purely MUTUAL WESTERN AND SOUTHERN ASSOCIATION, with its funds all invested in tho West and South, at high rates of interest. For this reason it can iueure at lower rates and pay larger dividends than any Eastern Company. ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS invested at 10 per cent, for 50 years will amount to $11,739.09. ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS invested at C por cent, for thc same timo will produce only $1,842.01. DIFFERENCE-$9,897.08. Why uhould Western and Southern men pay money to Eastern Life Insurance Companies, to be loaned out hy them at G to 7 por cen n, when the Life Association has a largo demand for it at 10 por cent.? High interest insures large dividends. The LIFE ASSOCIATION proposes to tho peonlo of South Carolina, as ebt has done to all tho Southern 8tate?. *o make it a HOME COMPANY-that ii?, to invest the money de? rived IfcCH* each State in the different States fr?m which it is collected. Money is very much needed in tho West and South, to assist in de? veloping and buildiug up the commercial, ma? nufacturing, mineral and agricnltural inter? ests; and as thc laws of Now York and several Eastern States absolutely prohibit their com? panies from investing money outsido their own States; and as these compa??as have hereto? fore donc a large portion of tho business of the West and South, and now hold many million dollars belonging to the citizens of these sec? tions-of the UBO. of which they are deprived by law-we therefore earnestly urge upon our people the necessity of insuring their lives in good Western and Southern Companies only, and thereby keep their money at homo. Tho Association was started over a year ago, for the oxprcss purpose of changing the current of Lifo Insurance from the East to tho West, and to-day, without a particle of stock, we have ONE MILLION OF DOLLARS ASSETS. We invite attention to our rates and plan, and fuel confident that we can command the influence and hearty co-operation of the citi? zens of South Carolina. BOA RU or DIRECTORS.-John J.
