THIS COMPANY offers the following IMPORTANT ADVANTAGES to those
about EFFECTING INSURANCE ON THEIR LIVES:
1. InBuranao at Stock Rates, being from 20 to 30 per cent, leas than the rates charged by
mutual companiea.
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 tho Company to the same extent aa a Block
holder owning an equal amount of the Capital Stock.
3. Every Policy iaauoa by the Company ia non-forreitahlo, and contemn a 'clause atating its
exact Surrender Taine.
Before Insuring your Life or accepting the Agency of any Company,
HBADTHK FOLLOWING
A lengthened experience baa demonstrated that the ralea of premium ordinarily charged
by life insurance companies are from twenty five to thirty por cent, in excesa ot what are ne?
cessary for a aafe and legitimate conduct of tho business. In other words, carefully and
prudently-managed companiea charging "mutual" rates have been able to return to their
policy-holders from 25 to SO per cent, ot tho amount charged for premiums.
When life inauranoecompaniea were first organized, reliability of the data upon which pre?
miums wero constructed bad not undergone test of experience, lt was thought, therefore.no
more than common prudence to adopt a scale of premiums which would, in any event, meet
aU tho presumed ana unforeseen contingencies of tho business.
. Aa long as tho matter waa involved in borne doubt, it was better to fix the rate too high
than to iucur the risk of making it too low; because, in the former case, tho error could bc
easily remedied, at leaat in part, by returning to the policy-holders, at certain intervals, such
portion of the premium charged as waa found necessary for the purpueea of the business sud
the completo security of tho company.
Experience, however, having satiafacto' ?ly demonstrated that thcbe rates aro excessive,
what possible excuse can there he for maintaining them?
Availing themaelveB of thia experience, the Directors and Managers of the Universal Life
Insurance Company, at ita organization, adopt? d a scald of premiums in accordance there?
with, and which has provea to be fair and adequate, and all that waa necessary to meet the
requirements of tho business. These premiums aro about twenty-five per cent, lower than
thoae charge by mutual companeia.
It also appeared, inaamuch ae the rates BO established were aa near as could possibly be
determined fuir ratea, and not in exceea of what insurance has previously cost the policy?
holders in mutual companies, that any profits arising fron>gprudent management Justly and
properly belonged to the stockholders of tho company, for tho risk incurred by them in
undertaking the business.
Experience baa shown that there are sources of profit in the practice of the business which
theory-will not admit of being considered aa elementa in the calculation of the premiums.
Theao results form a saving in the mortality of the memhtra of a company owing to the me?
dical selection of good lives, a gain m interest on thc investments of thc company over that
assumed in the calculation of ita premiums, the profits derivable from the lansing and sur?
render of policies by the members, and from other minor sources.
Profita from thoao sources, in a company possessed of a capita1 of $200,OOO, and doing a fair
amount of business, would give to tho stockholders dividends largely in excesa of what were
counted on by tho Directors of the Universal at tho timo of ita organization. They have,
therefore, determined to divide among the policy-holders of the company a large part of the
profita accruing from the eourcea named, all of which have heretofore been divided among
the atockholdera.
The plan adopted for auch diviaion ie aa follows: Every peraon who may hereafter insure
with tho Universal will, for the purposes of diviaion, be treated as a ?tock hobler to extent ef
one annual premium upon his policy; and will share in the profits of Ute Company to precisely
the same extent as a Stockholder owning an equal amount of the Capital Steck.
By thia system of insurance, original with tho Universal, the policy-holder accurca the fol
wiug important advantages:
1. Insurance at the regular "stock" rates, requiring a primary outlay of about twenty to
thirty per cent, lees than that charged by mutual companies, and which ia equivalent to,a
yearly "dividend" paid in : dvanco of that amount on mutual rates. 'Hus low coat of inaur?
ance ia worthy of attention. Sinco ita organization, this company baa received in premiums
from its policy-holders the sum ot tl,517.000. To (fleet the same amount of inaniance in a
mutual company would bavo cost them an initial outlay of $2 COO.Otu Ry allowing ita policy?
holders to retain, in their own possession, this excess of $-183,000, tho Universal haa virtually
paid them a "dividend" of f483,000 and paid lt, too, in advance, instead ol mt the end of one
or more years. It is impossible to find any example cf a mutual ci mpany furnishing inaur?
ance at BO low a coat by returning to policy-holdeta au equal amount upon similar receipts.
2. Participation in tho legitimato profita of the company, upon a plan which aeenres to the
policy-holders the same treatment which directors aud atockholdera award to themselves.
This Bystem of participation, io coined hm with the low "Block" rates of premiums, muat
neceaaarily secure to the policy-holders every possible advantage to bo derived from prudent
and careful management.
The low rates of premium con pel economy, and, independent of participation, guarantee
to the policy-holder bia insurance at a rate which is not in excess of the cost in well managed
mutual companiea; while, by the proposed plan ol participation in what may he considered
the logitimsto profits of tho business, the coat will bo still further diminished.
xhus by the combined advantages arising from low ?tock rate aud participation in profita,
it is oonfi 'enth believe d tho UNIVERSAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY offers insurance at
ita lowest practicable coat.
ssw Thoae of tho existing policy-holders who desire tn participate in profita under the now
plan can do BO by making application to the head c fiice, or to any agents of the company.
The Company is in a sound financial condition.

AS General Agents, we take pleasure in presenting this well known and responsible Com
pany to the pnhlic. and in recommending it as first class in every way. We might add
mnch more on this anbjeot, hut, being interested as ite Agc nts, prefer to speak tbrongh dis?
interested parties. Therefore, read and digest the following notices-among many others
from both Northern and Southern papers, as to thc virtueu of this Company:
There is no better company in the land. A comparison with other corporations of a simi?
lar character will convince all of tho superiorscfety in inking risks with the Brooklvn Life.
['.omnibus, t?a., Sun, January 27.16C9.
The Brooklyn Life has placed itsell in the vanguard of insurance reform, and ts the first
company that has dono loll justice to tho injured, ftc.
[Insurance Times, New York, January, 18G9.
This gieat feature of cash surrender values is au important improvement that signalizes
the era of insurance.-Raleigh Sentinel N. C.
This plan-guaranteed surrender values-removes the sole objection exitting to mating
an application for Insurance. F.achpolicy becomes apiece of negotiable paper, as easily trans?
ferred as a Ootert>menl bond-BosU.n, Mass. Post. 18GD.
A policy in tho brooklyn Life is worth so much in ready money. This is tho only life com?
pany that has carried this excellent feature into basinets.
[Dispatch. St. Louis, Mo., January 7,1869.
We call especial attention to this distinctive and advantageous feature of guaranteed sur
render value, particularly characteristic of the Brooklyn Life. And also to the fact that
there aro no classes in the brooklyn Life: all faro alike, whether from the North, South, East
or West Also, we direct the attention of the public to the fact that policies can be obtained
in this Company, owing to its carel ul management and superior advantages, at lower rates
than in any other company of equal rank and solvency in America.
