FOR MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE &c. WITHOUT PEBSONAL LIABILITY. Principal Office : New Pitt street, Sydney, THE AUSTRALIAN 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 largo number of policy holders in New Zealand, and investing its revenues from that placein the public securi ties of the country. The assets of the Society comprise New 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 stabilityand 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 PROFITS BELONG EXCLUSIVELY TO ITS MEMBERS. From the magnitude of its resources it is enabled to declare. LARGE BONUSES. The sources oi profit are increased by the high rate of interest obtained on the invested funds also by the difference between the margin provided for oxpenses and the low rate of ex> pnditure actually incurred by the Society an ad vantage incidental to a large business, neitherof 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.
