It A SACRED TRUST. The responsibility resting upon the officers and managers of a Life Insurance Company is not different from that which is assumed by the trustees of individual estates. It has always been the aim of the Mutual Benefit (Life Insurance Company of Newark, N. J., to conduct its business in accordance with this conception of the sacred character of the work and the solemn responsibility imposed thereby. It best manifests its fidelity in keeping steadily before It as the true objective, the maintenance of the highest security, so that a policy maturing thirty or forty years hence will be as certain of payment as one falling due * - ? r,r> J Atl/lAOirAI* Kv oil lUIIIUIlVW, CLIIU IV cuucawi wj ?m* proper means to lighten the burden of insurance, by making the cost as small as is consistent with security. Evidence of the skilful and faithful management of the Mutual Benefit is found in its exceedingly low expense rate, and remarkably favorable mortality rate extending over the whole period of its existence?nearly sixty years. It is all right to listen to the other fellows' stories and examine their contracts; but you will be doing yourself an injustice if you sign an application or accept and pay for their policies before you know about the Mutual Benefit and what it can and will GUARANTEE you.
