THE "ATLAS"
Csauss Policies on all r^pnlar plans.
Premiums payable annually, semi-annually or
quarterly, with, a loan of one-third to policy-holders
ALL POLICIES OF THE <• ATLAS
ARE! NON-FORFEITING.
It is greatly to be deplored tiat a iarjre majority
if Insurance Companies take advantage of the mis-
fortunes of suoh of their policy holders who, through
adverse circumstances, sometimes fail to pay their
premiums, t>y forfeiting the amount already paid.
Such a palpable injustice, it is hoped, will soon be
abandoned Dy the companies that practice it. The
Atlas Mutual Life will hare done* more to -bring
about such a consummation than all the laws which
could be enacted on the subject, because it has origi-
nated a system by which the policy holder eanno
lose what he has paid, under any. ciroumstanoes. A1
Policies issued by the " Atlas," no matter on wha
plan, are non-forfeiting from tbe fLrst payment.
INVESTMENTS OP THE "ATLAS."
The Atlas Mutual Life makes Its investments on
Seal Estate security, which must be worth (accord-
ing to the terms of its Charter.) double the amoun
loaned. Almost all its present investments are made
at 10 per oent., whioh gives the Company aa im-
mense advantage over companies located in the
East.
Insuranoe Companies in most of the older States
are not allowed, according to the terms of their char-
ters, to loan money outside the State in which they
are organized, and it is well known that in those
States that S or 6 per cent, is the utmost that
had on money. In order to show how this
policy holders, we must suppose that a person aged
40 insures in the Atlas for $10,000 on the Life pun.
givinffja single premium of $5,102 00. The expecta-
tion of life at that age is 27 years.
$5,102 00 compounded at 8 per cent, for 21
■ years,is $40 765 00
$5,102 00 compounded at 5 per cent for 27
years, is J*. J9.030 60
