CLERICAL ABSENTEEISM.-Tho annual
stampede of the clergy, and their univer?
sal absence from their charges during
August, have serionB drawbacks and dis?
advantages. Frequently nobody is left
to celebrate marriages or bury tho dead;
and this evil is not conlincd to tho great
oities; it spreads over the continent and
uffeotB all denominations. We know of I
a couplo in Rhode Island who took n
fancy to get married last week-tho heart
of August-in a village in Northern [
Now York, and sought for a clorgyman
to tie the knot, with these results: They I
applied first to tho Fresby terian minister; |
he had shelved Calvin and gonen-Qshing.
Then to the Episcopal; bo had doffed I
robes and prayer book nnd gono a-fish-1
ing. Then to tho Baptist; ho had be?
taken himself to bis nativo olemcut,
and gono a-fishing. Then to tho Method?
ist; ho had buried his "discipline" and
gono a-fishing. Nobody wus left but
the Catholic priest. Tho young couplo
were in dispair. But fortuno favored
them; as good luck would have it, a
stray clerk was cnught loaded down with
fishing gear, and persuaded by tho offer
of a liberal feo to pauso in his headlong
career lukeward long enough to pro?
nounce the happy couple husband nud
wife.-New York Evening Post.
NIAGARA UTILIZED.-Horace H. Day
proposes to utilize tho water power of
Niagara Falls to propel boats on the
Erie Canal. He is satisfied that water I
power can bo transported in tubes for |
twenty miles at a loss by friction of only
one per cent. He is also sure that au
air-pipe can be placed along tho bank of
the canal between Albany and Buffalo,
extending the entire distance, and at
every ten miles attached to reservoirs,
to be constructed as ordinary cylinder I
boilers, and of Buch capacity as to sup?
ply the propelling boats with their charge I
? of compressed air, with which they do I
their work. Tho air is to be compressed
by the force derived from Niagara. Mr.
Day and others aro now at work upon en?
gines which will use compressed air.

THIS COMPANY offers tho following IMPORTANT ADVANTAGES to those
about EFFECTING INSURANCE ON THEIR LIVES:
1. Insurance at Stock Rates, being from 20 to SO per cent, lees than the rates charged by
mutual companies.
2. Each Policy-holder is regarded n ? a Stockholder to thc extent of one Annual Premium
on his P?Hcv. and will share in tho Pi eli ts of tho Company to thu sumo extent us u Stock?
holder owi ing au equal ninon ut of thc Capital Stock.
3. Every Policy issiieu by the Company is uou-forfcitublc, aud contains a Iclauso statiug its
exact Surrender Value.
Before Insuring your Life or accepting thc Agency of any Company,
It ISA p TI IK KOLI.OWlMJi
A lengthened experience has demons trat? d that Ike rates of premium ordinarily charged
by lifo insurance companies are from twenty-five to thirty per cent, in excess ol what ure ne?
cessary for a safo and legitimate conduct of Hie business. In otber words, carefully and
prudently-managed companies charging "mutual" rates have been ablo to return tu their
policy-holders from 25 to 30 per cent, ot the amount charged for premiums.
When life insuianeucompanies were first organized, reliability of tho data upon which pre?
miums were constructed had not undergone test ?d'experience. It was thought,thorefuro, no
moro than common prudence to ndopt a eenie of premiums which would, in any event, meei
all tho presumed and unforeseen contingencies of the business. As long as tho matter was
involved in somo doubt, it was better to lix the rate too high than to incur the risk of mak?
ing it too low; becauso. in the former case, tho error could bo easily remedied, at least in
part, by returning to the policy-holders, ut certain intervals, such portion of tho premium
charged as was found necessary for the purposes of the business and tho complete security
of the company. Experience, however, having sut iatae'to il} demonstrated that I h ese rates
are excessive, what possible excuse can lhere be for maintaining thiniV
Availing themselves of this experience, the Directors and Managers of the Universal Life
Insurance Company, at its Organization, adopt? d a eenie of premiums in accordance there?
with, and which has proved to be fail und adequate, mid all that was necessary to meet the
requirements of the business. These jiremiuins ure about twenty five per cent, lower than
i hoce charge by mutual compani is. lt also appeared, inat-inucb ns thc rates so calublitdicd
were as near as could possibly be determined luir lairs, and not ill excess of what insurance
has previously cost tho policy-holders in mutual companies, thut any pr?dits arising: from
prudent inuuagemcnt justly and prop? riv belong! il to the stockholders ol thu company, for
the risk incurred by them m undertaking the bnmiios.
Experience lins shown that there ure sonic* s of profit ill lb? practice of the business which
theory will not admit of being ront-idinel ns el? incida ill the calculation ol the premiums.
Th? so results form a saving in Ibu mortality of ike ni? mb? rs id ? ?.? nipnny owing lo thc mo
dical selection ol good lives, n gain in intcicct en the iiivet-imi ni* id the ce nipnny over that
nmuiiucd in the calculation of its pu minina, the profils dei i vu bio frein th? lapsing and sur?
render of policies by tho numbers, and from ol bi r minor milices. Profits from theso sources,
in a company possessed of a cn pit a' nt $2UU,()(H), and doing a fair amount of business, would
give to tho stockholders dividends hugely in exec*s of what were count* ?1 on by Ibo Directors
of tho Universal at (be time <d ita organization. ?lu-y bave, therefnri?.determined to divide
among the policy-holders of the company a large pail of tho profits accruing In ni tho
j sources namul, all of which have bcretoiorc been dividi d among the stockholders.
Tho plan adopted for such division is us follows: Every person who may hereafter insure ;
with the Unive-isal will, lor Ibu purposes of div sion, bc treat? ?I ns a atockholdi r to extent ft |
ono annual premium upon his policy; nod will oh are in the profits of the company toprecisely
sunni extent aa a stockholder owning nu cipiul amount of tho ea pit al slock.
By this system of itisiirauco, original with thc Cnn crud, tho policy-holder secures tho fol?
lowing important advantages:
li Insurance, at thc regular "stock" rules, r? quiring a primary outlay nf nbout twenty to
thirty JUT cent, less t lui II that dunged by II. ulunl compniiies, lind which is equivalent toa
yearly "dividend" jiaid in . dvancc nf thai him.nut on mutual rutes. 'J bis nw cost of insur?
ance "ia worthy of ut le nt ion. Since its organizo i ion. this company luis received in premiums
from ils policy-holders the nun ol $1.517 COO. To i l?i ct Ibo Hinno timi tint of iiiMii unce in a
mutual company would have- cost th? in an initial outlay of $2 ( HIM (.fl By allowing its jiolicv

jiaid them a "dividend'' of 1483,100 nod fin iel lt, too, in advance, inste ad ol at I lie end of one

Thini sys I en.of participation, in coMiection with Ibu li?w "stock" mles nf premiums, must
