By combining In one office the Joint Stock and Mn

There no Directors but what are SiOckhuldef7,
which fact will induce great degree Of caution IN
taking none but good lives in the judci9ns invest

ard in the general management OF its business,
Is has been the policy Of some companies TO divide
the entire amOuntO Of thoT surplus utterly regardless Ol
the unalterale nature Of their obligations.
But il must be apparent to every one that this Is nm
SHsGfci ifnot adish0nest, mode oftransocns busi-
ness.
The esrtaiRtg of future lnsse which every Life
Insurance Company is liable renders II absolutely
necessary that large fund should form per-

Il will be the policy OF tie Washington Life In
sUrance Company always TO have a reserve fund
securely invested propOhohate 10 its amount OF busi.
ness.
This is the only method by which adequate secur.
ity can at all times be furnished to The insured aud
place the Company IN position IN which amount
of future losses can impair ita sOkehcy.
