JUDGE I WILL NOT INSURE MY LIFE until I find a company that will guarantee some definite and reasonable return for payments already made, in case | accidentally neglect a premium or deliber- ately choose to discontinue the insurance. ‘ The company you are in search of is THE MASSACHUSETTS MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, and it is also in search of you. The Non-forfeiture law of Massachusetts applies only to the few companies whose home offices are in that state. By its terms, the company named above is compelled to give a definite amount of paid-up insurance to a policy-holder who fails to pay the premium for any year after the second, UNLESS he prefers to surrender his policy for a definite amount in cash! This law is strictly automatic and needs no action on the part of the insured to make it apply. Both CASH and PAID-UP VALUES FOR TWENTY YEARS TO COME ARE STATED IN EACH POLICY.
