Antr 18 ?8 U ? i-i 9 CD g A FEW reasons why they should have the J\. proferonce over all others: 1. Wheeler A Wilson's Sowing Machino is muoh simpler than any of the others; re? quiring loss than half the amount of ma? chinery. 2. As tho result of this simplicity, this ma? chine is much less liable than the others to j got ont of repair. 3. Another result of this simplicity is greater durability. 4. Another result is leas friction, and, con? sequently, greater ease and rapidity of mo lion, with less noiso. 5. And greatest of all, that it uses no Shut? tle, and makes the lock stitch. It is tho cheapest to buy the beat. Boy the machino that has justly, fairly and honora? bly won a reputation and independence against a strong and bitter competition. For more than twenty yeara has tho Wheeler A Wilson not only efond first md foremost, but now stands the unrivalled Sowing Machine of tho enlightened civilized world. Buy tho ma? chino that has been thus tested and proved, and thou you aro sure to gst the best. For salo on the cni-iest possible terms.

THIS COMPANY offers the following IMPORTANT ADVANTAGES to those about EFFECTING INSURANCE ON THEIR LIVES: Q 1. Insurance at Stock Kales, being from 20 to 30 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 the Profits of the Company to the same extent BB a Stock? holder owning an equal amount of tho Capital Stock. 3. Every Policy issued by the Company is non forfeitable, and contains a 'clause stating ito exact Surrender Value. Before Insuring your Life or accepting the Agency of any Company, UK. A Li THE FOLLOWING) A lengthened experience has demonstrated that tho rates of premium ordinarily charged by lifo insurance companies are from twenty-five to thirty por cent, in excess of wbat are ne? cessary for a safo and legitimate conduct of tho business. In other words, carefully and prudently-managed comps idea charging "mutual" rates have been able to return to their policy-holders from 25 tu Hu per cent, ot the amount charged for premiums. When lifo iusui anco companies were find organized, reliability of the data npon which pre? miums were constructed had not undergone test of experience. It was thought, therefore, no moro than common prudence to adopt a scale of premiums which would, in. any event, meet all the presurnod and unforeseen contingencies of the business. As long as thc matter was involved in sumo doubt, it was better to lix the rate too high than to incur the rink of mak? ing it loo low; because, in tho former cuse, thu error conld ho easily r? iusdied, at least in part, by returning to the policy-holders, at certain intervals, such poi lion of the premium charged as was found necessary for thc purpures of tho business and the completo security of the company. Experience, however, having eatislactoiily demonstrated that these rates aro excessive, what possible excuso can there bo for maintaining them? Availing themselves of this experience, the Directors and Managers of tho Universal Lifo Insurance Company, nt its organization, adopti d a t-calo of premiums in accordance thcro with. and which has proved to he fail and adequate, und all that was necessary to meet tho requirements ol' the Dimness. Thesu premiums aro about twenty-five per cent, lower than thosochargo hy mutual companeis. It also appeared, inasmuch as the rates so established wero as near as could possibly bo determined lair rates, and not in excess of what Inanr?nce has previously cost tho policy7-holders in mutual companies, that any profits anning from prudent management Justly and prop? riv belonged to tho stockholders of the company, for tho risk incurred hy them in undertaking the buainees. experience has shown that there aro sources of profit in thu practice of the business which theory will not admit of being considered as elements in the calculation of the premiums. Theso results form a caving in the mortality of the members of a company owing to the me? dical solection of good lives, a gain in interest on tho iiivettnicnte ol the cempany over that assumed in tho calculation of. its premiums, the profits derivable from tho lapsing and sur? render of policies hy tho members, and from other minor sources. Profits from theso sources, in a company possessed of a capita* ot $200,00(1, and doing a fair amount of business, wonld give to tho stockholders dividends largely in excess of what were counted on by the Directors of tho Universal at tho limo of ita organization. '1 bey have, therefore, determined to divido among tho policy-liolderB of tho company a Inigo part of the profits accruing from tho sources named, all ot which have heretofore been divided among tho stockholders. Tho plan adopted for such division is as follows: Every person who may hereafter insnro with Ibo Utiiversal will, for the purposes of division, he treated as a stockholder to extent ef ono animal premium upon his policy; and will share in the profits of the company to precisely saino extent as a stockholder owning au equal amount of toe capital stock. By this system of insurance, original with the Universal, the policy-holder secures tho fol? lowing important advantages; 1. Insurance at the regular ,-t tock" rates, rr quiring a primary outlay of abont twenty to thirty per cent, less than that chat god by mutual companies, and which is equivalent to iv yearly "dividend" paid in i dvance of that amount on mutual rates. TL?B low cost of insur? ance is worthy of attention. Since its Organization, this company bas received in premiums from its policy-holders the sum ol $1,517.0(10. To < fleet the same amount of insurance in a mutual company would have cost them an initial outlay of 19 000.000. By allowing ita policy? holders to retain, in their own possession, this excess of $483,000, tho Universal has virtually paid them a "dividend" of $183,000. and paid it, too, in advance, instead of at the end of ono or more years. It ?B impossible to find any example cf a mntnal company furnishing insur? ance ai -o low a cost ny returning to policy-holders an eqnal amonnt npon similar receipt?. 2. Participation in tho legitimate profits of the company, upon a plan which secures to the balley-holder* tho sanio treatment which directors and stockholders award to themselves, This system of participation, in coi ncction with thc low "stock" rates of premiums, must necessarily secure to tho polioy-hnMe rs every poi-siblo advantage to bo derived from prudent and careful management. Tho low rates of premium con pel economy, and, independent of participation, guarantee to Ibo policy-holder his im-munCc ?it a into which is ind in excess of tho cost in well managed mutual cntupaiiicti; ?hilo, bv tho pioposcd plan of participation in what may he considered the legitimate profits of tho* business, the cost will ho ?.till ini tiier diminished. i bus bv the combined advantages arising from low sleek rate nod participation In profite, it is conlMciitli believed tho UNIVERSAL LIFE INKUHANCE COMPANY offers insurance at its lowest practicable coat? 'I hose or ibo existing policy-holders who desire io participate in the profits under the new plun can do so bv making application to the head ( iiice, or to nnv agents of tho company.
