THE
WASHINGTON
LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY.

JILHE Thirty Second Annual State
Il ment of THE WASHINGTON
shows the bond and mortgage in
vestments to be 1924 per cent. of the
total assets.
These mortgages, amounting to So
54l 1922, are first liens on real estate
valued at $19,00O,O00
Prudent and far-sighted investors will make
no mistake in exercising the most scrupulous
care IN their Investigations of the character and
relative amount of the invested funds and cred
Its held by the different companies in which they
are invited to insure their lives for the benefit Of
their families or as profitable and secure prOvi-
SION for personal support in old agc.''
we are Justified in saying . . that no Sc
curites are so stable and safe for the investment
OF NE insurance company as well-seected
bonds and mortgages, and that from no other
realized
Its sound and sufficient assets, correct
methods and conservative manage
ment, are the unmistakable evidences
of the strength and superiority of THE
WASHINGTON.
Disturbances in Wall Street, or in
foreign markets, do not affect its secu-
rites, and therefore in times of general
depreciation in values no anxiety is felt
by the holders of it's policies, whatever
may be the effect on those of other COM
panies.
The Company's income in 1891 for
premiums, interest, etc, was So, 6S4,-
1854, and it's assets at the close of the
year were 81, 459, G3S. 70, a gain during
the year of $669,305.
The sums paid to policy-holders since
organization, together with the invest
ed assets held for the protection of pol
icies, aggregate 32,O95, 1878.
The assets of the Company are set
down at their actual value having no
speculative feature, constant attention
to the Kaleidoscope changes in the
Stock Market" is not necessary to as
certain their absolute value.
The substantial nature of its invested
funds,-its settled methods in the lines
OF careful and economical management,
and the abiding and controlling deter
mination to make it the Policy-holders'
Company, render it easily demonstra-
BILE that THE WASHINGTON, though
not the largest, IS THE BEST COM
PANY.

MAD Docs IN DUBLIN DISTINCTION last
Thursday dog belonging to Mr.. Wakeman F.
Richie, who lives between Dublin aud Oar
lington, went mad and started on tour of de-
struction. After biting number of dogs he was
killed by Mr.. Isaac B. Dick, on his farm near
Deer Creek. Nearly all the dogs who were
under suspicion of having been bitten were
killed by their owners, aud consequently the
canine population Of the Gedars and vicinity
has been much reduced.
On the same day fine female setter belong
ing to Mr.. Robert Tenant, of Dublin, after
acting very suspiciously, left home and visited
a number of places near Dublin and scarbo-

one who might see her to kill her on sight, but
she has not been caught, as far as heard from.
