A Message
to YOU
(Not to the other
fellows)
Protection While
You Live
Life Insurance—Not
Death Insurance
You Win Whether You Live or Die
Why would ii uiiin buy life insuraiiw policy on which lie must pay
all I lie days of his life with 110 assurance of what I ho extra iiksohh-
niciits will lie and with 110 guarantee as to the outcome of the policy?
The ahove question should be considered seriously before enter-
inir into the buying of life insurance.
You can buy a life insurance policy from—
The State Life Insurance Co.
That you can pay out on easy installments like you can any other
piece of property. While you are paying out same you have protection
for the amount of the face of the policy in raise of death by natural
causes and the double face of the policy in case of accidental death.
Another feature is that the State Life pays you good dividends annual-
ly with which you may reduce your cost or increase your protection or
you can draw the cash, just as you prefer. Still another feature
about, this policy is that if you beepme totally disabled by accident or
disease the company will mature your contract and pay you a month-
ly income sn long as you live and at your death pay the full face of
your policy to your beneficiary without any deductions.
No Man Can Say That He Is
Not Ready to Buy Insurance
I "ntiI after having had the liberal terms of the Slate Life Insur-
ance contract described in full and I would consider it a special privi-
lege 1 <i fully explain this to you. It is a pleasure to sell insurance in u
coinpanv like this for cverv man who buvs receives benefits.
With Over (100,000,000
Of Insurance in Force
OVER $2,600,000 WET SURPLUS
OVER $18,500,000 of Statutory Securities DEPOSITED WITH THE
STATE OF INDIANA TO PROTECT ALL POLICY H0LDER8.
Without obligating yourself, fill out your address below and mail
to me and I will furnish you with tlio facts how you can buy this policy
and how you can pay for same.
