Has hoon in oporation but four years, during which time it has assured a larger amount than any Company in tho United States, during a cor? responding period of existence Ono of thc chief causes of its organization, was tho forfeiture by several Northern Companies of tho policies of Southerners, during tho war. Thc loading officers of this Company protested against this injustice, and on its consummation, withdrew and orga? nized tho "GLOBE MUTUAL," on principios moro liberal and j Hst than those yet adopted by any other Insurance Company. In tho evout of death in hattie or in a dtiol, tho equitablo value of the policy will ho returned to tho heirs. ALL other Companies forfeit it. In caso of suicide, tho FULL Policy is paid. No restriction on travel. This Company has, in its guarantoo fund of $500,000, an clement of strength possessed hy no other Company. It offers tho entirely new fcaturo of Probability Endowment, which gives tho largest possiblo sum for tho premium paid. No othor Company posso.-Bos this feature. Insures children of any ago. In tho moderation of its premium rates, in tho variety of its tables, in its dividends and in tho security offered insurers, it invites comparison with any other Company. JOHN 0.
