The progress and unprecedented growth
oftheNewTork Life Insuranee Compsny
is proven by the following facts taken from
official reports:
In 1850, twenty year ago, tbe assets of
tbe company were $212,740, at that time
the total amount Insured by Ibe company
was about two and a half millions, only a
little more Iban It now has In tbe oil re
gions alone. Tbe twenty years which have
since passed bas inoreased tbis more than
fifty times, and tbe reserve fuod fur the
policy bolder security, more tbao one hun
dred limes so that absolute ssfety Is guar
anteed by tbe age of tbe company. . It bas
gone on Iron strength to strength, tbe last
three years being tbe most proiperous of
all. In 1868 It Issued 2.439 more polioies
iban It did tbe previous year, insuring $8,
087,830 more, being an increase or about
37 per cent, while tbe Mutual Life. Connec
ticut Mutual and other leading oonapaniet
tell off In tbelr amouot of buflnees in about
tbe same ratio. Tbe seme remit wa ex
perienced In 1868 and 1870 bid fair to
place tbe Mew York Life still farther ahead
Tbe company is economically managed and
pays ss large dividend to policy bolder
(who are the only stockholders) as any
compsny In the world. Nine tenths ot the
companies claiming to be mutual are not
triotly so, but have more or lens Hock, tbe
holders of wbich sp out tbo beat earning
of tbe company. Remember tbat tbe New
Tork Life is portly mutual, just wbat it
claims to be, nothing more nothing lees.
We would epeolally call the attention of
our readers to tbe new advertisement of
Lammert ft Alden, tbe well knows cloth
