I now find that if I had taken my present policy instead of the fraternal policy, I would never have to pay another cent and my life would be insured until I die without further payments by me. Besides each year I would now be getting a dividend check from the Union Central e; c i year as long as I live. And 1 find that the cost of the same in the long run would have been less than my contract with the fraternal soc'ety." For nearly fifty years the Union Central has furnished life insurance at the lo vest net cost. Are you wise in delaying your application? Bailes & Link, Dist. Agts., Fort Mili, S. C.
