"When. I fii;st considered insurance
I was particularly concerned about
the size of premiums I'd have to pay.
"Then The Mutual Life of Canada
man said: 'Remember, the real cost of life insurance is the
premiums you pay less the dividends you receive.'
"I studied the dividend record of The Mutual Life and found it
outstanding. I bought all my life insurance from that Company

This brief study saved me real money year after year.

Anyone who ever visited Lon
don knows Piccadilly Circus,
and the famous statue of Eros,
God of Love, poised above its
central fountain. This statue has
taken a lot of punishment dur
ing the past sixty years, from
both practical jokers and Lon
don smog. But because the
sculptor cast it in aluminum —
it was the first large statue to be
cast in the “new metal” — it has
come safely through the years.
When it was cleaned up for the
Coronation, it gleamed as fresh
ly as ever. The enduring beauty
of aluminum has meanwhile
made it a favorite of modern
architects, furniture designers,
decorators too. Aluminum
