i At the request of the President and Boa1d of Di-
rectors of the knickerbocker Life Insurance Com
pany, certify that the mode of computing present
value of the Policies employed by the Secretary of
the Company is scientifically correct, and in ac-
cortiance with the prescriptions of the charter.
also certify, that have compared the list of poll
cies furnished me by the President or the books
of the Company with valuation tables sufficiently to
test the accuracy Of the results given by the
Ia y, and find the values as stated within to be nu-
IN .rcally correct. That is say the present val
NC of the future risk of the Office all outstanding
pplicieS the difference between the present value
of future premiums to be paid them is SI OCT 49,
The total value of policies, the hol;lers of which
are entitled TO dividends, is S29.227 02.
And if the surplus is correctly stated at Il2 IL
the difference between this and the present value of
the future risk of the Company existing policies
after deducting 10 per cent of it for the relief fund.-
is the proper amount for dividend, towit S24 6I0 81
The true principle of dividend is to assign to each
policy holder who has insured on the mutual plan a
share proportioned to the present value of his poll
cy, which is the true value of his interest stock
holder of the Company. This sh;-e amounts to 10
per cent of the present value of the policy.

just God and shall we calmly rest,
The Christian q scorn, the Heather Is mirth--
Content 10 live the hngeriog Jest
And hy-word OF the mocking earthf
Shall our own glorious land retain
The curse which Europe scorns to bcarf
Shall cur own Brethren wear the chain
Which not cen Russia "a msniala wear
Up BOW for Freedom not in strife
Like that our sterner fathers saw
That awfai waste of human life
The glory and the guilt of war;
But break the chain-she yoke remove,
And suilte TO earth oppression's rod
With those mild arms OF truth and love,
Made mighty through the living God
Down lot the shrine OF Moloch sink,
And leave no traces where Ii stood
Nor longer let It's idol drink
His daily cup of human blood;
But rear another altar there,
To truth and lave and mercy given,
And Freedoms gift, and Freedom 4 prayer,
shall call an answer down from heaven.
