EstftblishedWO. EVERY POLICY GUARANTEED BY THUS STATE. The two prime reasons which bare led to the extraordinary bonuses which thia. office has been able to declare have been its ECONOMICAL MANAGEMENT and its REMARKABLY FAVOUBABLE MORTALITY EXPERIENCE. " The Australasian Insurance and Banking Record" says,—"lt [the N.Z. Government office] possesses the splendid advantage of operating in perhaps the healthleat country In the world/ To this, coupled with rigid care in the selection of lives, has been due the unprecedentedly low sate of mortality which the office has enjoyed. Year by year tho actual deaths have fallen far short of what was anticipated, and the funds thereby saved iwve all gone to swell the profits, which at the valuation ia 1896 (for three years) amounted in CASH to £225,000 Sterling. Present Funds amount to ovee THREE I MILLION POUNDS. Annu&l Income exceeds £100,000. J. H. EICHARDSON, gj Commissioner. mm&i.
