Each Policy-holder is regarded as a .Stockholder to the extent of one Annual Premium on his Policy, and will share in the Profit? of the Company ?o the sumo extent as a Stockholder owning an equal amount of the Capital Stock. 3d. Every Policy issued by the Company i< non-forfeitablc, and cuntaina a Clause stating iu exact Surrender Value. Before Ixsuwixo Yorn Like or Accepting the Agency or axy Cohpan t READ THE FOLLOWING- = A lengthened experiencehas demonstrated that the rates of Premium ordinarily charged h? Life IuHurouce Companies are front twenty-five to thirty per cent, in excess of what are necessary for a safe and legitimate conduct of the business, lit other words, carefully and prudently man aged Companies charging "Mutual" rates have been able to return to their policy-holder's from 23 to 30 per cent, of the amount charged for premiums. When Life Insurance Com paries were first organized, the reliability of the data upon which the premiums were constructed had not undergone the test of experience. It wo*thought,there fore, no more than common prudence to adopt a scale of premiums which would, in any event, meet all the presumed and unforseen contingencies of the business. As long :is the matter was involved in some doubt, it was better to fix the rate too high than to incur the risk of making it too low; because, in the former case, the error could be easily reme died, at least in part, by returning to the policy-holders, at certain intervals, such portions of the premium charged as was found unnecessary for the purposes of the business and the complete security of the Company. Experience, however, having satisfactorily demonstrated that these rates arc excessive, what possible excuse can there be for maintaining til em '.' Availing themselves of this experience, the Directors and Managers of thu Unircrml Life /? gurance Company at its organization, adopted a scab; of premiums in accordanu* therewith*, and which has proved to be fair and adequate, and all that was necessary to meet the requirements of the business. These premiums are about twenty-live per cent, lower than those charged by Mu tual (Companies. It also appeared, inasmuch as the rates so established were as near as could possibly he deter mined fair rate*, and not in excess of what Insurance has previously cost the policy-holders in Mutual Companies, that any profits arising from prudent management justly and properly be longed to the stockholders of the Company, for the risk incurred by them in undertaking the business. Experience has shown that there arc sources of profit in the practice of the business which theory will not admit of being considered as elements in the calculation of the premiums. These result from n saving in the mortality of *.1hj members of a Company owing to the mcditral selec tion of good lives, again in interest on the in vestments of tho Company over that assumed in the calculation of its premiums, the profits dctivable from the lapsing nnd surrender of Policies by the members, and from other minor sources. ' Profits from these sources, in a company possessed of a capital of $200,000, and doing a fair amount of business, would give to the stockholders dividends largely in excess of what were counted on by the Directors of the Universal u the time of its organization. They have, thare forc, determined to divide among the policy-holders of the Company ;i large part of the profits accruing from the sources named, all of which have heretofore been divided among the stock holders. The plan adapted tor such dividends is .v. follows: Every person who may hereafter issurt with the Universal will, for the purpose of division, be treated as a stockholder to the extent of one Annual Premium upon his Policy ; and will slime in the. profits of the Company to precisely tin same extent as a Stockholder owing on equal amount of the capital Muck. By this system of Insurance, original with the Universal, the policy-holder secures the follow ing important advantages: FlHST. Insurance at the regular "Sto-k" rr.tcs, requiring a primary outlay of al>ont twenty to thirty per cent, less than that charged by Mutual Companies, and which is equivalent to a yearly ''dividend" paid in advance ofthat amount on mutual rates. This low cost of insurance is worthy of attention. Since its organization this company has received in premiums from its |M))icy-holders the sum of $1,517,000. To effect the same amount of insurance in a Mutual Com pany would have cost them an initial outlay of $2,000,000. By allowing its policy-holders to re tain" in their own possession this excess, of $483,000, the Universal bus virtually paid them a "dividend" of $483,000, and paid it, too, in advance, instead of at the end *#f one Or more years, is impossible to lind any example of a Mutual Company furnishing insurance at so low a cosl n turning to its policy-holders an equal amount upon similar receipts. Second. l*articipation mlhe legitimate profits of the Company, upon a plan which secures to tin policy-holders the same treatment which Directors and Stockholders auard to themselves. This svstom of participation, in connection with the low "slock" rates of premium, most necessarily secure to thejpolicydioldcra every advantage to be derived from prudent nnd careful management. The low rates of premium compel economy, and, independent of participation, guarantee to the policy-holder his insurance at a rate which is not in excess of the cost in well managed mutual companiesr while, by the proposed plan of participation in what may bo considered the legiti mate profits of the business, the cost will ho still further diminished. Thus by tho combined advantages arising from low stock rate and participation in Ihc profits it is confidently believed that tho UNIVERSAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY uficrs in surance. at its lowest practicable cost. ?f3>"Thoso of the existing Policy-holders who desire tn participate in the Profits under I he im v Plan can do so by making application to the Head Office, or to any of the Agents of the ( oil-. pan v.
