RE POLICIES of the EQUÉTABLE LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY of the UNITED STATES to be preferred before

those of any other Company? BECAUSE Equitable Polites 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 Mil- lions sterling of Surplus; and BECAUSE Surplus not only means financial. strength, but is also the fund 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. Earnings 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. We other Company can' point to such a record. BECAUSE, the Policies of the Equitable are

paid more promptly than those of any Company.
