RE POLICIES of the EQUITABLE A LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY of the UNITED STATES 10 be preferred before
those of our other Company? BECAUSE Equitable Polices are to the intend- ing assurers what Consols are the investor. BECAUSE the Equitable is the strongest Life Company in the world, having over 11 Mä- lions sterling of Surplus, and BECAUSE Surplus not only means financial strength, but is also the find from which dividends to policyholders are paid. BECAUSE Dividends to policyholders must be earned before they can be paid, and during the last ten years the Equitable's Surplus Eamings have been larger than those of any other Company."
BECAUSE during the past five years the Equit,
able has paid each year more than £400,000 in dividends to policyholders. No other "Company can point to such a record. BECAUSE the Policies of the Equitable are
paid more promptly than those of any other Company.
AND THEREFORE BECAUSE a man assur-':
ing the Equitable secures a contract backed by the Company which is the strongest in "the world; zühich carus greater profits; and which pays its Policies, more promptly than by other Company.
