LIFE ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA,

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.
