The Original Stock Life Insurance Cpppany of the United States. ' OFFICERS: WILLIAM^VALKKU, President. HENRY J. FURBER, Vioe-Preaident. JOHN H. BEWLEY, tecrrUiy. V GEORGE L. MONTAGUE, Actuary. E.W. LAMB EUT, M. D., Medical rExaminer. THIS COMPANY offers the following IMPORTANT ADVANTAGE^ to those aboat EFFECTING INSURANCE ON THEIR LIVES : 1. Inauranoe at Stock Bates, being from 20 to 80 per oont. lesa than the ratee charged by mutual companies. 2. Eaoh Polloy-holdor is regarded as a Stockholder to the extent of one Annual Premium on bi? Policy, and will share in the Profits of the Company to the same extent aa a Stock? holder owning an equal amount of the Capital Stoqk. 8. Every Policy issued by the Company is non-forfeitable, and contains a Clause stating Us exact Surrender Value. - Before Insuring your Life or accepting the Agency of any Company, READ THE FOLLOWINGS A lengthened exp?rience has demonstrated that the rates of premium ordinarily charged by lifo insuranco companies are from twenty-five to thirty per cent, in excess ot what are ne? cessary for a safe and legitimate conduct of the business. In otbor words, carefully and prudently-managed companies charging "mutual" rates have been able to return to their policy holders from 26 to 80 per oent. of the amount charged for premiums. When life insurance compauies were first organized, reliability of the data upon whioh pre? miums were constructed had not undergone test of experience lt was thought, therefore, no more than common prudence to adopt a eoale of premiums which would, in any event, moot all the proaumed and unforeseen contingencies or the business. As long as the matter was involved in some doubt, it was botter to fix the rate too high than to incur the risk of making it too low; because, in the former caso, tho error could be easily remedied, at least in part, by roturning to the policy-holders, at certain intervals, snoh portion of the preminm charged aa was found necessary for the purposes of the business and the complete security of the company. Experience, however, having satisfaotoiily demonstrated that thcBo rates are excessive, what possible oxousq can there be for maintaining them? Availing themselves of this experience, the Directors and Managers of the Universal Life \ Insurance Company, at its organization, adopt? d a soale of premiums in accordance there? with, and wbioh baa provea to be fail and adequate, and all that waa necessary to meet the requirements of the business. These premiums aro about twenty-five por cent, lower than those charge by mutual companeisv It also appeared, inaemnch as the* rates so established were as near as could possibly be determined fuir rates, and not in excess of what insurance bsB previously cost the policy? holders lu mutual companies, that any profits arising iron.{prudent management justly and properly belonged to the stockholders of tho company, for the risk incurred by them m undertaking the business. Experience bas shown that there aro sources of profit in the practice of the business which theory will not admit of being considered as elements in the calculation of the premiums. These results form a saving in tho mortality of tho members of a company owing to the me? dical selection of good lives, a gain in interest on the investments of tho cempauy over that assumed in tho calculation of its premiums, thc profits derivable from tho lapsing and sur? render of policies by the members, and from other minor eourcPB. Profits from these sources, in a company possessed of a capita1 of $200,000, and doing a fair amount of business, would give to the stockholders dividends largely iu excess of what were counted on by the Directors of the Universal at the time of its. organization. They have, therefore, determined to divide among the policy-holders of tho company a large part of the profits scorning from the sources named, all of 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, for tho purposes of division, bo treated aa a stockholder to extent of one annual premium upon bis policy; and wilt share in the profits of the Company to precisely the same extent as a Stockholder owning an etmal amount of the Capiial Stock. By this system of insurance, original with tho Universal, tho policy-holder aecures the fol wing important advantages: 1. Insurance at tho regular "stock" ratee, requiring a primary outlay of about twenty to thirty per cent. Ieee than that charged by mutual companies, and which ie equivalent to a yearly "dividend" paid in I dvanc? of that amount on mumal rates, 'ibis low cost of insur? ance is worthy of attention. Since ita organization, this company has received in premiums from its policy-holders the sum ot $1,517,000. To (fleet the esme aim.nut of insurance in a mutual company would have coat them an Initial outlay of $2 C0O.C00 By allowing its policy? holders to retain, in their own possession, this excess of $483,000, the Universal has virtu ul ly paid them.a "dividend*' of-$488,000 and paid it, too, in advance, instead ot st the end of one or more years It is impossible to find any example cf a mutual company tarnishing insur? ance at uo low a cost by returning to polt3> holders an equal amount upon similar receipts. 2. Participation in tue legitimate promts of the company,.upon a plan which secures to the Pulley-holders tho eanio treatment which directors and. stockholders award to themselves. Thia system of participation, in connection with tbd low "stock" rates of premiums, must necessarily secure to the policy-holders every possible advantage to be derived from prudent and carefulmanagement. Tho low rates of premium con pol economy, and, independent of participation, guarantee to the policy-holder bis insurance at a rate which is not in excess of tho cost in well managed mutual oompanlsB; whilo, by the proposod plan ot participation in what may be consider, d the legitimate profits of tho business, the cost will bo still farther diminished. JL bus by the combined advantages arising from low stock rate and participation in profits, lt is confidently believed the UNIVERSAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY offers insurance at its lowest praotioable cost. as-Those of the existing policy-holders who desire to participate in profits under the new plan can do so by making'application to the head office, or to any agents of the company. The Company is in a sound financial^condition. Ratio of Assets to Liabilities 136 to 100.
