LIFE
INSURANCE.
R. E. P. HENDERSON, I.C.S., Retired, of 42, Leinster Gardens, London, W. 2, wishes to remind the readers of this paper that his advice is available, now as for the jast mixteen years, to all those of known position who agree to his conditions.
The war, which has pitilessly exposed the weaknesses of many Insurance Officca, has triumphantly vindicated the soundages of
Mr. Henderson's advice.
Out of thirty British Offices, whose valua tions took place during 1914, only five manitained their pre-war bonus rate; included amongst these five neo, the two Offices most frequently recommended by Mr. HENDERSON, and, moreover, the bonuses declared by these ¿wo Uffices are respectively the highest and second highest of the whole thirty. Moreover, of neither of these Offices has the bonus rato ever once receded throughout their long history since they were establisher in 1830 and 1828 respectively.
When advice which has thus beeu vindicat- ed by time can be get free of charge, subject only to reasonable conditions, why not write and ask for it?
