TITE OMAHA DAILY BEEt SUNDAY, MAY 12, 1001.
The Largest Endowment
Ever Paid
The Mutual Life lias recently paid

purchased through the Company's
London office, an annuity of 10,
000, by depositing with The Mu
tual Life 80,020.50, which is nearly
130,000. What better endorse
ment is needed than such an ex
pression of confidence on the part
of our British friends in a typical
American institution.
The Largest Two Policies
Ever Issued.
One on the life of George V. Van
derbilt, of New York, for $1,000,
000 requiring the payment of an an
nual premium of $35,000, and the
other on the life of Frank II.
Peavey, of Minneapolis, Minn., for
$1,000,000 calling for an annual
premium of $43,800. The latter is
the largest annual premium on the
life of an individual, ever paid to
any life insurance company in the
world. Hoth policies were issued
by The Mutual Life of New York.
The Mutual
Life Insurance Company
From its organization to December
31, 1000, received from its policy
holders $770,504,1.(50, and it lias
paid to policy-holders and holds in
trust for future payments $800,-232.001.
The Largest Single
Premium
Ever received. The Havemeyer
family paid to The Mutual Life in
1880 ai single premium of $578,345,
for live policies of $100,000 each,
with guaranteed incomes beginning
in ten years.

Mr. Horbort Myrick'
Insurance
Prominent among the eiHtors of the
agricultural press is Mr. Herbert
Myrick, President of the Orange
Judd Company, editor of its Ameri
can Agriculturist at New York; its
Orange Judd Farmer, at Chicago,
and its New England Homestead,
at Springfield, Mass. He is also
President of the Phelps Publishing
Company, and editor of its Farm
and Home.
Mr. Myrick has recently been in
sured in The Mutual Life by the
directors of his two companies for
$100,000.
Tho Mutual Lifo
of New York
Has far more insurance in force
in the United States and Canada
than any other company. It is
selected by insurers whose knowl
edge of business affairs prompts
them to choose the safest company
as the proper custodian of the
funds which they seek to set aside
for the future benefit of their
families. Its contracts provide
more guarantees than the policies
of other companies.
A Four Per Cent
Bond Policy
Was issued by The Mutual Life of
New York, to a great mine owner,
Mr. Samuel Newhouse, who re
cently sold his mining interests to
the Standnrd Oil Company. Mr.
Newhouse, has just secured a $200,
000 paid-up policy in this company,
payable at death, together with an
annuity of $S,000 during his life.
Mr. Newhouse paid in one check for
this bond $233,828. Tn addition to
the $8,000 annuity, Mr. Newhouse
will receive a dividend each year
on the policy itself.
Investigation as to the plans and
methods is respectfully invited.
Full information may be ob
tained at the nearest General
Agency of the Company by mail
or at the Company's Home Office.

Tho pollco bellcvo that Michael Berry, the
