PAUL GERMAN INSURANCE CO , of St. Paul, Minn. THE NATIONAL INSURANCE CO., of Hartford, Coon. Absolute protection is guaranteed to poli? cy-holders in our companies by reason of the large paid up capital, assests and resources of the Companies. THE Pee Mutual Li Miranee Co., Life Rate Endowment Plan. The plan of this desirable form of insurance is as follows: The rates of premium, payable j in cash, are the same as for ordinary life policies ; and the surplus, or dividend, is ap? portioned annually upon the same basis. This surplus is each year relined by the Compaay, and interest allowed thereon at the average rate earned by it upon its assets. When the accumulated surplus and the "re? serve" maintained upon the policy (according to the combined experience cf mortality and four per cent, interest), shall, equal Ute face, of the policy, that amount will be paid to the insured. At ?he death of the insured the amount of the policy will be paid to the beneficiary. If such death occurs afier the policy has been in force five years, the amount of the policy, together with the outstanding accu mu lated surplus and interest, will be paid. This is a specially distinctive feature of the PENN MUTUAL policies-original with it, aud guaranteed by no o:her company. After the insured has been a member five full years, the accumulated surplus and inter? est can be used, if desired, in payment of fu? ture premiums ; at his option, however, later surplus, or dividends, may remain with the Company and the endowment feature be thus resumed. If the insured, after the second annual pay? ment has been made, desires to surrender his policy, a paid-up non-participating life policy will be issued for an ?quitable amount, the same as upon the ordinary Life Plan; and it he should fail to apply for such paid-up in? surance, within the time named in the policy, he will, uuder the non-forfeiting rule of the Compaay, have the full amount of insurance carried for the time w*hich the full legal value of the policy, at lime of non-payment will extend it. The time in which policies issued upon this plan will mature as endowments, cannot be definitely stated. This depends something upon the age of the insured at issue (the older the ?ge the greater the "reserve" and the more rapid the accumulation>, and largely noon the amount of surplus earned each year by the policy. This surplus is contingent upon the amount of death claims, expense of I management, and the interest realized upon investment.. In all three of these the ex? perience of the PENN has been most favorable. The Official Reports show the PENN MUTUAL to be one of the leading companies in the country. Its returns of surplus have been more in number and of larger average per cent, than those of any other. There is no reason to doubt it will maintain its high standard of excellence. If so, the terra of the Rndowument will be shorter than in any other company issuing similar policies. A. C. PHELPS, Agent, SUMTER, S. C. I April 22 RICE PGUNDIN8. MY RICE MILLS, KNOWN AS THE W. F.
