The Society can be considered quite as much a New Zealand as an Australian institution, seeing that all moneys received in the colony are invested here in advances on mortgage of first-class freehold securities, loans to members on the 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 SECURITIES EXCEEDING SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND POUNDS! No oxheb Life Office in the Colon? Can give yon each LARGE BONUSES AS THE AUSTRALIAN MUTUAL PROVIDENT (SOCIETY, And the effect of an Annual Bonus, which can be taken in Cash, will'be to reduce the cost of assurance to thh lowest possible minimum.
