ter section of land which I for sale at
J3.S0O, he is interviewed by a represen
tative of the Old Line Bankers Life In
surance company of Lincoln, Nebraska,
?to endeavors to interest him in Life
Insurance.
1 lardly does the agent get well start
Ed, i?ken he ia interrupted by Mr. Clark
who tells him of his intention to buy
i farm. He states that he Is about to
make a small payment on the purchase
rrlce and will, If the agent can offer
iay thing better be an interested
iteteKfir. -
"Well," said the agent, "suppose you
juy a farm worth $5,000 by paying the
:?ius,ll sum of $175.25 annually without
interest, for twenty years, the con
tract for same containing a clause spe
cifying that, should you die at any
time, the party from whom you buy
the land will cancel all deferred pay
ments, and give your estate a deal
title; or if you live to the maturity of
tlie cos tract, give you liot only the deed
to the land, but pay you as large a per
verts e of profit as you could reason
ably expect to make from the property.
Wonld you buy a farm on those
terms?"
Of course Mr. Clark was interested,
and since the Company secures each
and every contract issued with a de
sosit of approved securities with the
State of Nebraska, he expressed a will
ingness to become a party to such an
Tgreement.
"Well," continued the agent, "If you
will pay annually to the Old Line Bank
ers Life Insurance Company of Ne
braska the sum of $175.25 they will, if
you die at any time, pay to whom you
rnay name the sum of $5,000. If you
live twenty years, they will give yon a
cash settlement consisting of the guar
anteed reserve and an estimated sur
plus, amounting to $5,491.25. You will
readily see that you receive $1,986.25
more than you pay in, which is better
than four per cent compound interest.
Then, too, having the assurance that,
should you die, you would leave a com
fortable estate." Mr. Clark bought the
insurance, and what Mr. Clark did you
can do.
Permit our agent to explain a con'
tract to you. If you do not own all
the land you care to farm, ask for cir
cular No. 1 which shows "How Jones
Bouhgt and Paid for a $6,000 farm."
If you have a mortgaged farm, call for
Circular No. 2, which shows "How
Samuels Paid a $2,000 Mortgage."
