Assure your Life in the AUSTRALIAN MUTUAL PROVIDENT SOCIETY, I AND SECURE AN f ANNUAL BONUS OR DIVIDEND, A Privilege which no other Life Office in the colony can grant its members. Be careful that yon select this Society, and do not be misled by the similarity of name of some of the other younger Australian Offices. 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 tbo colony. THE SOCIETY HAS ASSETS IN NEW ZEALAND SECURITIES EXCEEDING SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND POUNDS I No other Life Office in the Colony Can give you such LARGE BONUSES AS THE AUSTRALIAN MUTUAL PROVIDENT fSOCIETV, And the effect of an Annual Bonus, which can be taken in CASH, will be to reduce the cost of assurance to the lowest possible minimum. If you are already sufficiently assuied yourself, induce your friends to follow your example, N.B.—The Security afforded by this Society to its policy-holders is unsurpassed by that ; of any Life Office in the world.
