The Provident Life and Trust Company OF PHILADELPHIA


The true objective in the management of a Life Insurance Company is two fold : First, to maintain perfect security ; and second, while respecting the rights of every policy- holder to reduce the cost of insurance. Judged by this standard, the PROVIDENT claims to be unexcelled.


The New Policies of the Provident are unsurpassed for consciseness and sim- plicity of form and for adaptability and liberality in all essentials.


The Premium Rates of the Provident are exceedingly low and are still further reduced by large annual dividends.

Security Safe Deposit Co.


BOSTON


T' THE New safe deposit vaults of this Company, at 30 Congress Street (in the New Stock Exchange Building) are the strongest and most completely equipped vaults that human skill can construct when guided and directed by an experience of over thirty years of safe deposit work.


The Security Safe Deposit Company was incorporated in 1879 and has from that time to the present devoted itself exclusively to the conducting of a Safe Deposit and Storage business in the City of Boston.


For years its vaults in the Equitable Building were deemed models and its methods of management and maintenance copied. To the construction and maintenance of these new vaults it now applies all those lessons learned . during its thirty odd years of corporate growth. Experience counts in the Safe Deposit business as in everything else.
