AREYOU
YOU
Who will pay that mortgage
on your home if you die before
It's lifted ?
A life insurance policy will
do it , and the cost to you is
only the "annual premium paid
to the company. It is like pay
ing a little extra interest on
your mortgage to insure its re
lease if you die.
The resources of the Mutual
Life of New York exceed the
combined capital of all the na
tional banks of New York City ,
Chicago , Boston , Philadelphia ,
St. Louis , Cincinnati and Balti
more.
A duty delayed is a duty
shirked. Let a man convinced
of responsibility secure adequate
protection and at once.
INSURE NOW
06 IN THE
MUTUAL LIFE.
t ,
A Policy of Insurance in the
Mutual Life is the quickest
asset vou can leve.
