Once upon an evening bloory, Whilo 1 eat mo dreaming, droary, In tho sun-ahini) thinking ovor ThingB that passed in days of yore, Whoo I nodded, nearly Bleeping, Gently came something creeping, Creeping upward from the floor. '"Tia a oooliug breeze," I muttered, "From the regio UH 'neath tho floor: Only thia and nothing more." Abi die tino Hy I remember It was in th?t wc-t September, When the earth and every member Of creation that it. boru. Had for weeks and months been soaking In tho meanest, most provoking, Foggy rain that, without joking, Wo had evor aoen before, Bo I know it mu Ht be very Cold and damp beneath thc floor Very cold beneath tho door. So I eat me, nearly napping, In tho sun-Bhine, stretching, gaping, With a feeling tonto delighted With tho breezes 'neath the floor, Till I felt mo growing colder, And the et retelling waxing bolder, And myself now feoling older, Older than 1 lolt bofore; .Feeling that my joints wore stiffer Than they wore in day? ot ynre, Stiffer than they'd been before. All along by back, tho creeping Soon gave place to rust ling, leaping, ? it s if oountlosa frozen domuns Had concluded to explore All tbecavitiea-the varmints! 'Twixt me and my nether garments, Through my boots into thu floor; i Then I found myself a shaking, Every moment more and more. 'Twas tho ague: and it shook mo Into heavy clothes, and took mo Bbaking to the kitohen, every Place where there was warmth in store; . Shaking till the ohina rattled, Shaking till the morals battled; Shaking, and with all my warming, Feeling colder than before; Shaking till it had exhausted All its powers to shake me moro, Till it could not shake mo more. Then it rested till tho morrow, When it came with all the horror That tc bad the face to borrow, Shaking, shaking as bofore; Add from that day in September Day which I long shall remember It has made diurnal visita, ' Shaking, shaking, oh! so sore: Shaking off my boots, and shaking Me to bed if nothing more, Fully thia if nothing more. And to-day tho swallows flitting Round my cottage see me sittiug Moodily within tho sunshine Just inside my silent door, Waiting for the aguo, soeming Like a man forover dreaming; And the suD'light on roe streaming Casts no shadow on the floor, For l am too thin and sallow , To make shadows on tho floor Nary a shadow a iy more.

THE ?N?VB?S?L LIFE T I?SHRAHCI 09 Uli Eli TY STREET, COMPAIY ! 69 NEW YORK.. The Original Stock Life Insurance Company of the United States OFFICERS: WILLIAM WALKER. President. HENRY J. FURBER, vice-President. JOHN H. BEWLEY, Secretary. GEORGE L. MONTAGUE, Actuary. E. W. LAMBERT. M. D.. Medical Examiner.. -o THIS COMPANY offera the following IMPORTANT ADVANTAGES to those about EFFECTING INSURANCE ON THEIR LIVES: 1. Insurance at stock Rates, being from 20 to SO per cent, less than the rates charged by mutual companies. 2. Each Policy-holder is regarded as a Stockholder to the extent of one Annual Premium on his Policy, and will share in tho Profits of tho Company to the same extent as a Stock? holder owning an equal amount uf the Capital Stock. 3. Every Policy issuou by the Company is non-forfcitable, and contains a le?anse stating its exact Surrender Value. Before Insuring your Life or accepting the Agency of any Company, IGCADTHU FOIil OWlKGl A lengthened experience bas demonstrated that tho rates of premium ordinarily charged by lifo i n HU rance companies are from twenty-liv*- to thirty por cent, in excess of what aro ne? cessary for a safo and legitimate conduct of tko buaineaa. In othor words, carefully and prudently-managed companies chaiging "mutual" rates have been able to return to their policy-holders from 25 to SO per cent, of the amount charged for premiums. When lifo insurance companion were first organized, reliability of the data upon which pre? miums were constructed bad not undergouo teat uf experience, lt WSB thought, therefore,no more than common prudence to adopt a ecalo of premiums which would, in any event, meet all tho presumed and uuforoseen contingencii s of tba business. As long ae the matter was involved m some doubt, it was better to fix the ralo too high ?ban to incnr the risk of mak? ing it too luw; bocauao, in the former case, tho error could bo easily remedied, at least in part, by returning to tho policy-holders, at certain intervale, such portion of the premium charged aa waa found necessary for tho purposes of tho business and tho complete security of the company. Experience, however, having salistacto i 1 > demonstrated that these rates are excessive, what possible excuse can there be for maintaining them? Availing themselves of this experience, the Directora and Managers of tho Universal Life Insurance Company, at its organization, adopt i d a scale of premiums in accordance there? with, ond which has proved tu be fail and Biliqualc, and all that WSB necessary to meet tho requirements of the business. Theeo premiums aro abuut twenty-flvo per cent.'lower than thopc charge by mutual companeia. It also nj.neared, itiaemuch as the rates so established were as near na could poaeibly bo determined lair ratea, and not in excess or what insurance has nrovioualy cost tho polio) -holders in mutual companies, that any profits arising from nj mien t manag? nient justly aud properly belonged tu the stockholders of tho company, for tin- risk incurred by tliem in undertaking thu business. Espei h ncc has shown that there are eonrci a of profit in the pr? cl ice of tho business which theory Hill nut admit ut being considered as th meets in thu calculation ol tho premiums. These results form a eaving in the mortality of the nu ml t rs of a company owing to the me? dical selection of good lives, a gain in interest on the inveetuiente ul the ct mpany over that assumed in the calculation of its pr? mil ms, the profits deiivablo from tho lapsing and sur? render of policies by tho members, and from tither minor sources. Profits from these sources, in a company possessed of a capita1 ot f200 OOO, sud doing a fair amount of business, would give to tho ?lockholder? dividends largely in excess nf what were counted on by tho Directors of tho Universal at tho time of its organization. They have, therefore,determined to divide among tho policy-holders of tho company a largo part of tho profits accruing from the sources named, all nf which have heretofore been divided among tho stockholders. The plan adopted for such division is as follows: Every person who may hereafter insure with tho Universal will, fur the purposes of division, bo treated aa a stockholder to extent nf uno annual premium upon bis policy; and will abaro in tho profits of the company to precisely samo extent as a stockholder owning an equal a nimmt of tho oapital slock. By tbis ny st om of in sur an ce, original with tho Universal, tho polioy-holder scouroa the fol? lowing important advantages: ' , 1. Insurance at tho regular "stock" rates, requiring a primary outlay of about twenty to thirty per cent. lesB than that charged by mutual companies, and which is equivalent to a yearly "dividend" paid in dvatico of that amount on mutual rates. This low cost of insur? ance in worthy of attention. Since its organization, this company has received in premi?me Trum its policy-holders the sum of *1.517.OOO. To efl'eot th? same amount of insutancein a> mutual company would have cost them an initial outlay of t2 000,000 By allowing UB policy? holders to retain, in their own possession, this excess of $483,000, tho Universal has virtually paid them a "dividend" of 1483,000 and paid It, too, in advauco, instead of at the end of ono j or moro years Iti? impossible tu find atvj example of & mutual ccaipivvj iuruisbing insur? ance at BO low a cost by returning to policy-hrdderB an equal amount upon similar receipts, 2 Participation in the legitimate profits of tho company, npon a plan which secures to tho policy-holders tho samo treatment whirl) directors and stockholders award to themselves. Thia system of participation, iii coi nection with Ibo low "stock" ratos of premiums, must necessarily secure to tho policy-boldeia every poahiblo advantage to be derived from prudent and careful management. Tho low rate? of premium con pel economy, and, independent of participation, guarantee tn the policy-holder bia insurance nt a rato which ia not in excess of tho coat in well managed mutual companies; whilo. by tho proponed plan of participation in what may bo conaidortd tho legitimate profits of tho buaineaa, tho cost will bo still further diminished. 4 hua hy tho combined advantages arising from low Atock rato and participation in profita, it is confidently believed the Universal Life Iiiauranco Company offers iusuranoo st Us lowest practicable cost.
