The recently published Experience of the Mutual Benefit Life Ins. Co., as given in Table (6) and columns (2) and (3) of the accompanying Percentage Table, is, in several important particulars, the most valuable contribution yet made to our American vital statistics. It is the most extensive that has thus far been furnished by any single company. The total number of deaths that had taken place in the Mutual Life when Mr. Homans constructed the American Experience Table, amounted to only about 2,900, while the Mutual Benefit records over 3,900, or about one-third more than the number on which that table was constructed.
