INCORPORATED 1880.
SUN MUTUAL AID SOCIETY
OF BALTIMORE,

OF BALTIMORE.
The officers and References are gentlemsN
of we'll known business and PI OCCASIONAL
standing, and reputation.
THE OBJECT OF THE ASSOCIATION Is
list. To secure to its members or their heirs
sum OF Money at time when 1t is
most needed
ID. To insure such benefits at the lowest
cost.
RELIABILITY.
The Principles on which the Society is
founded are as old as history thc funds are
held by the members themselves, until need
ed TO pay dues and benefits.
MEMBERSHIP.
Any person Mate or Fenp,te in good health,
between the ages of ~ and 80 may become
members of the Association.
PRACTICAL WORKING.
The members agree to pay annual dues, tfoy
current expense and assessments, us rated
until such assessments Shall exceed the
amount required to pay certificate in full:
when they will be assessed only such pro-
rate proportion as may be necessary to make
up the SUM needed, to pay n Certificate; al
the members will be assessed. as rated in the
Tables, and cannot be assessed for mole.
EXAMPLE.
Take our assessment on a certificate ofSl2j0;
all who hold CertitiraIes for that amount
Will be assessed as rated according 10 their
ages. As for instance, persons IRON ~ to TO-
would be assessed one d0it0r. Certificates Of
S2,5W would be assessed to meet a loss Of
81 ,250-R the amount as rated. and Certifi-
Gates for $1,000, 4 their rated assessment
thus the plan is purely Mutual and strictly
Equitable.
PERMANENT DISABILITY.
In case n member should become perma-
nenty disabled, Jifu per cent. of the value or
their certificates will be paid to them then
ahd fifty per cent more at Maturity of years;
or to their heirs at death. This is maniiesty
most benevolent and desirable provision.
MATURITY OF YEARS.
Members who live to their years of Expect
ancy, will be paid. in their life time, the
amount of their certificate (od age in Il ma
jority OF cases, is time of most need.)
EXAMPLE.
Take n person of 40 years of age, at the time
of joining. Their expectation of life. as per
the Carlisle Tables, is z years. should such
person live to be ~ years OF age, he or she
would then receive. in cash I'm their liietime.)
the amount of their certificate.
SPECIAL FEATURES.
The permanent disability provision and the
tificates, render membership, in this aSs0cia-
ton more desirable than in Societies. that pay
benefits in Gaze of death only.
WHO ARE SPECIALLY INTERESTED.
Every member has personal interest in
the growth and welfare of the society and
should be actiyei in inducing others to become
members, as the larger the membership, the
less vii be assessmtn hts, and the greater the
the value of the certificates.

How far is il to Sleepy landi
Five miles, think, by Banbury Cross,
You laugh ~ much at the ringing bells,
Aud you look so long at the old LADY,
horse.
Gsily she goes, with bells on her toes,
And yours to the music are keeping time,
Till l almost wish that Mother Goose
Had never, never, invented y rhyme.
It's long, long way to Sleepy land,
For you meet Mother Hubbard and stop
to chat;
Ask whether she found her dog bone,
And what baker aud butcher aud barber
are att
And the little pig that TO market went,
And the one that bad not crumb to eat
Till tell over aud over again,
On the rosy toes of your restless feet.
It's very long way to Sleepy-land;
fm sorefy afraid We shall never get there;
There's no straight road and no express
train,
Aud yet am all the time paying fare;
But your voice grows dreamy, your hand
drops down,
You wink your eyes hard to keep them
bright;
Like the little old woman with her pig,
We reach Sleepy LAND THAT very same
night"
