Principal Office: New Pitt street, Sydney. THE AUSTBALIAN MUTUAL PROVIDENT SOCIETY Is a purely Mutual Life Office, local to Australia, and New Zealand, not confined to one Colony, but common to all; local to each Colony, but not restricted to any, and, operating on a broader basis, is therefore safer than an office confined within narrow limits. Is a Life Office having a large number of policy holders in New Zealand, and investing its revenues from that place in the publio securities of the country. The assets of the Society comprise Now Zealand Debentures to the value of £64,000. Was established in 1849, and it has successfully passed through the ordeals to. which, all new Life Offices are exposed. Having completed the twenty-first year of its existence, it has achieved a position of stability and affluence unexampled in the history, of Life Offices. Its accumulated and Invested Fund exceeds £700,000. Its income is over ... £200,000 a year. THE PBOFITS BELONG- EXCLUSIVELY TO ITS MEMBEBS. From the magnitude of its resources it is enabled to declare. LABG-E BONUSES. The sources of profit are increased by the high rnte of interest obtained on the invested funds, also by the difference between the margin provided for expenses and the low rate of expenditure actually incurred by the Society an advantage incidental to a large business, neither of which can exist in a new office. The annual revenue was increased by £32,236 from new assurances effeoted in the past year, a rate of progress which entitles it to rank with the first class Life Assurance institutions of the United Kingdom. Forms of proposal and every information, may be obtained on application to VENNELL, MILLS & CO., Agents. TI/TESSRS VENNELL, MILLS & CO. have been appointed to succeed Jonas Woodward, Esq., (who has resigned) as Agents of the AUSTBALIAN MUTUAL PROVIDENT SOCIETY.
