"VTEW ZEALAND GOVERNMENT LIFE INSURANCE AND ANNUITIES. The above Department affords the following ad vantages, which are secured by special Acts of Legislature, over any other office in the colony-:— J 1. All policy holders participate in the profits of the Department. 2. The Premiums are lower by at least 7s (seven shillings) per cent, than those of any other office. The Security is infinitely superior to that of any private office, the consolidated revenue of the colony being^ available for any deficiency. 4. The whole of the money paid in Premiums is retained in the colony, whereas in private ■ offices so much capital is sent to foreign parts. 5. Policies for wife or family are absolutely pro tected from creditors, 6. No policy is forfeited by non-payment of Premiums after first year, so long as sur render value will insure .the amount. or For example, a person aged forty, insured under a ot'jMcy on which, five annual payments had been "s£&e, would not forfeit it on account of non-payment r<^ Premiums until the expiration of five years and jV'—-six days from date of default, provided that the Ma? r cO-^*lollß of the Policy had not been ration -i, -nd i<; could be renewed at any time within per jcterm, on paying up arrears with interest; br if **" within that time, the Policy would ~., >*tlae , a jcbs arrears with interest.
