HENRY J. FURBER, Tioe-President. JOHN H. BEWLEY, Secretary.
GEORGE L. MONTAGUE, Actuary. E. Vf. LAMBERT. M. P., Medical Examiner.
. THIS COMPANY offers the following IMPORTANT ADVANTAGES to those
shout EFFECTING INSURANCE ON THEIR LIVES:
1. Insurance at Stock Ratea, being from 20 to SO per cont, leaa than the ratea chargod by
mutual companies.
2. Each Policy-holder ie regarded aa a Stockholder tu tho extent of one Annual Premium
on bia Polioy, and will share in the Profita of tho Company to tho same extent aa a Stock?
holder owning an equal amount of tho Capital Stock.
, 8. Every Polioy isaued by tho Company ia non-forfeit able, and contains a Iclanao atatlng its
exact Burrender Value.
Before Insuring your Life or accepting the Agency of any Company,
READ TUR FOLLOWIRGi
A lengthened experience baa demonstrated that Ibo ratea of premium ordinarily cbargod
hy life insuranoe companies are from twenty-five to thirty per cent, in excess of what are ne?
cessary for a safe and legitimate conduct of tho busiueae. In otber words, carefully and
prudontly-managed companies charging "mutual" ratea have been able to return to their
policj-holdors from 26 to SO per cent, of the amount charged for premiums.
When life insurance companies wore first organized, reliability of the data upon which pre?
miums were constructed bad not undergone teat of experience, lt waa thought, therefore,no
more than common prudence to adopt a scale of premiums which would, in any event, meet
all the preaumed and unforeaeen contingencies of the business.
As long as the matter waa involved m som o doubt, it was better to fix the rate too hlgl
than to incur the riak of making it too low; because, in the former oaae, the error could t>_
eaaily remedied, at least in part, by returning to the policy-holders, at oertain intervals, such
portion of the premium charged aa waa found necessary lor the purposes of the business and
the complete security of the company.
Experience, however, having aatiatactoiily demonstrated that these rates are excessive,
what poaaible excuse can there bo for maintaining them?
Availing themselves of thia experience, tho Directora and Managera of the Universal Life
Insurance Company, at ita organization, adopte d a scale of premiums in accordance there?
with, and which bas proved to be fail and adequate, and all that was necessary to meet the
requirements of the business. These premiums are abont twenty-frvo per cent, lower than
those ohargo by mutual companeia.
It also appeared, inasmuch aa the rates BO eatabliahed were as near aa could poaaibly be
determined fi. ir rates; and not in excess of what insurance has previously cost the policy?
holders in mutual companiea, that any profita arising fron.(prudent management joally and
properly belonged to the stockholders of tho company, for the risk incurred by them in
undertaking the business. ? >
Experience baa shown that there are son rees of profit in the practice of the hcaineas wbioh
theory will not admit of being considered aa elementa in tho calculation of the premiums.
Theae result? form a saving in the mortality of the in tm bi rs of a company owing to the me?
dical selection of good lives, a gain in interest on the Investments of the cempany over that
assumed in the calculation of ita premiums, the profita derivable from the lapsing atad sur?
render of policies by the members, and from other minor sources.
Profita from theae sources, in a company possessed of a capita' of $200,000, and doing a fair
amount of business, would give to the stockholders dividende largely in excess of what were
counted on by tho Directors nf the Universal at the timo of ita organization. They have,
therefore,determined to divide among tho policy-holders of the company a large part of the
profits accruing from the sources named, allot which have heretofore been divided among
the stockholders.
The plan adopted for such division is as follows: Every person who may hereafter insure
with the Universal will, for the purposes of division, he treated as a stockholder to exterttef
one annual premium upon his policy; and toill share in the profits of the Company to precisely
the same extent as a Stockholder owning an equal anwunl of the Copiial titcck.
By this eyetom of insurance, original with tho Universal, the policy-holder secures tho fol?
ding important advantage?:
1. Insurance at the regular "stock" rates, requiring a primary outlay of about twenty to
thirty per cent, leas than that charged by mntual companies, and which is equivalent taja
yearly "dividend" paid in i dvance of that amount on mutual xatca. Hos low coat of insur?
ance ls worthy of attention. Sinco RB organization, thia company has received in premiums
from its poUoy-holders the sum of $1,617,000. To effect the same amount of insurance in a
mutual company would have coat them au initial outlay or (2 000.000. By allowing its policy?
holders to retain, in their own possession, this excess of $483,000, the Universal has virtually
paid them a "dividend" of $483,000. and paid it, too, in advance, instead of at the end of one
or more years. Ie is impossible to find any example cf a mntual company furnishing insur?
ance at ao low a coat hy returning to policy - holdei s au equal amount upon similar receipt?.
2. Participation in the legitimate profits of the company, upon a plan which' secures th the
pelioy-holder? the same treatment which directors and stockholders award to themselves.
Thia system of participation, in connection-with the low "etock" rates of premiums, must
necessarily secure to the policy-holders every possible advantage to be derived from prudent'
and oareful management.
The low ratea of premium compel economy, and, independent of participation, guarantee
to the policy-bolder his insurance at a rate which ia not in'exceBSof the cost in well managed
mutual companies, while, Dy the proposed plan or participation in what may be considered
the legitimate profits of the business, the ooat will bo atill further diminished,? ..
'Abus by thecombined advantage? arising from low atook rate and participation in profits,
it ia confidently believed the UNIVERSAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY offers insurance at
ita lowest practicable coat.
?sr Those of the existing policy-holders who desire to participate in profits under the new
plan can do so by making application to tho head effico, or to any agenta of tho company.
The Company is in a sound financial condition.

AB General Agents, we tske pleasure In presenting this well known and responsible Com?
pany to the pnblio. and in recommending it aajir.s< class in everyway, we might add
much more on this subjeet, but, being interested as its Agents, prefer to apeak through ?is
intere sled parties. Therefore, read and digest the following' notices-among many others
from both Northern and'Southernpapers, as to the virtues of this Company:
- Thoro is no better company in the lana. A comparison with other corporations of a simi?
lar character will convince all of the superior safely in taking risks with the Brooklyn Life.
[ColumJnis, Od., Sun, January 27.1869.
The Brooklyn Lifo has placed iteeli in the vanguard ot insurance reform, and in the flmt
company that has done lull justice to the insured, Ac >
I Insurance Times, New York, January, lbtfj.
This great fe-ture of cash surrender values is ma important improvement that signalizes
tho era of insurance.-Raleigh Sentinel. N. C.
This plan-guaranteed surrender values-removes the sole objection existing to making
an application for Insurance. Eachpolicy becomes apiece of negotiable poper; as easily trans?
ferred as a Gooemnienioimd.-Boston, ?lass., Fdmi, 1868.
? A policy in the Brooklyn Life is-worth so mush m ready money, Thia is the only life com?
pany that has carried thia excellent feature into bueinese. " '
[Dispatch. St. Louis, Ito., January 7,1869.
We call especial attention to this distinctive and advantageous feature of guaranteed aur
render value, particularly characteristic of the Brooklyn Life. And also to tho faot that
there are no classes in the Brooklyn Life- ali fare alike, whether from tho North, South, East
or Weat. Also, we direct the attention of the public to the fact that policies can be obtained
in this Company, owing to its carefnl management and superior advantages, at lower rates
than in any other company of equal rank and solvency in Am?rica. -":
