Tho profits of tho Society are to bo divided annually after tho 31st December, 1883. Tho Invested Funds exceed ... £4,300,000 Tho Annual Income is upwards of 850,000 Tho Society has more than 50,000 Policies in force, assuring upwards of 18,000,000 During tho last 34 years tho Society has paid for Claims and Matured Endowments ... 1,500,000 The Society has divided among its members Cash Bonuses amounting to upwards of £916,000, yielding Beversionary Bonuses exceeding Two Millions. New Business. The new business of the last five years has exceeded two millions por annum — a larger amount annually than has ecor beon transacted by any other Lifo Office in the British Dominions. Tho cost of management, including commission, is unusually low, being only 95 per cent, of tho total receipts of tho year. This rate of expenditure is, on the average, 18 per cent, less than that of tho other Australian Mutual Lifo Offices, and less than any othor Life Assurance Institution cither in Europe or America, doing a. corresponding amount of nsw business. Unparalleled Accumulation of Funds. Ten years ago the Society, while 69th on tho list of British offices in point of age, was 35th in respect of funds. It now— January, 1883 — stands 4th, only throe offices in Great Britain, established respectively in 1815, 1823, and 1825, being above it. Tho accumulated funds now execod FOUE MDLLION THEEE HUNDEED THOUSAND POUNDS. ABBuro your lifo in the AUSTBALIAN MUTUAL PBOvjDENT SOCIETY, AND SECURE AN ANNUAL BONUS OB DIVIDEND, A Privilege which no other Life Office in tho colony can grant its members. Be careful that you select this Society, and do not bo misled by tho similarity of name of some other assurance offico. The Society can be considered quite as ttuch a New Zealand at an Australian insti-ti-Mon, seeing that all moneys receded in the colony aro invested here in advances on mortgage of first-class freehold securities, loans to membors on tho security of their policies, Government debentures, and freehold branch office premises ; and the Society is thus assisting in developing the resources of the colony. THE SOCIETY HAS ASSETS IN NEW ZEALAND SECUEITIES EXCEEDING FIVE HUNDEED AND EIGHTY THOUSAND POUNDS ! No Other Life Office in the Colony Can give you such LARGE BONUSES AS THE AUSTEALIAN MUTUAL PEOVIDENT SOCIETY, And the effect of an Annual Bonus, which can be taken in Cash, will be to roduce_ the cost of assurance to tho lowest possible minimum. If you aro already sufficiently assured yourself, induce your friends to follow your example. Prospectuses, forms of proposal, and all other information may be obtained on application to the Eesident Secretary, Wellington, or from any of the Society's agents. EDWAED W.
