THE QUESTION --Where Shall I Insure? Has ever been a burning one. The discriminating, now, as of old, answer it thus: In the old Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Company OF NEWARK, N. J. Because, its membership is composed of over .250,000satisfied men and women who insured in it in answer to its appeals to their faculties of discrimination. SIXTY-NINE YEARS OF STEADFAST FAITH in there being a large and discriminating public /that would patron ire only the best company has enabled the Mutual Benefit to achieve iU pr?sent magnificent proportion?, without sacrifice of its traditional business ideals, which cntit.'< it to distinction, and1 upon which it seeks patronage. IT IS THE BEST COMPANY because bound to thrifty methods of management W low rates, high surrender values and large annual dividends; because its liberal policy co?\*ract? contain special and peculiar advantages which it is the prerogative of a company of manure age and slowly hoarded experience to write; because our coirpetitors class it as second besi and it is a' maxim that "those to whom everyone allows Ute second place have an undoubted title to the first. IF YOU WANT SECURE INSURANCE for its own sake, in a company which has gone strength to strength, and h as a record which its management will have a pride in maintaining, is aure in the MUTUAL BENEFIT THE CONSERVATISM AND STRENGTH OF the Mutual Benefit have influenced many letters of personal endorsement from leading pfwesional men and women throughout the country.
