Is a pnrely 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, upon a broader basis, is therefore Safer than an Office confined M-ithin narrow limits. Is a I ife Office having a large number of Policy holders in New Zealand, and investing its Revenue from that place in the Public Securities of the Country. The Assets of tho 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 Stability aud Affluence unexampled in tho history of Life Offices. Its Accumulated and Invested Fund exceeds i.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 of profit are increased by the high rate of interest obtained oh the Invested Funds, also by the difference between tho margin provided for Expenses, and the low rate of expenditure actually incurred by the Society, an advantage incidental to a large Business, Neitheb of which can Exist in- a New Office. The Annual revenue was increased by £32,236 from New Assurances effected in the past year, a rate of progress which entitles it to rank with the First-class Assurance Institutions of the United Kingdom.
