SECURITY OF NEW HAVEN
Annual Statement Shows Increased
Assets and Reserves.

The sixty-seventh annual statement
of the Security Insurance Company of
New Haven, which is made up on the
basis of market valuations on Deem
Der 30, 1907, shows that the total assets
of the company have increased to
$2,075, 924. The larger business writ
ten by the Security has necessitated
greater reserves and it has provided
some 81, LAT, 1854 for unearned premiums,
and $149, 1853 for unadjusted losses.
Notwithstanding these liberal sums
set aside the Security has a net sur
plus beyond all liabilities of 1892, 1854,
and a surplus as to policyholders of
1892, 1854. This substantial old under
writing institution has long been held
in high esteem by the insuring public
and its enviadle record for fair deal
ing aver since it's incorporation in 1841
has won for it an excellent position.
The excellent indemnity offered by the
Security is readily appreciated and
it's policies are gladly accepted.

Postmistress Luce desires to
call attention to the practice of
some patrons of rural delivery of
placing loose coins in their boxes
each time they desire to dis
patchletters instead of supplying
themselves with postage in ad-
vance of their needs.
This practice imposes undue
hardship on rural carriers in re-
moving loose coins from boxes
and delays them on the service
of their routes.
1t is, therefore, urgently re-
lquested that patrons of rural de
livery provide themselves and
keep on hand a supply of stamps
consistent with and in advance of
their needs. It is also very de-
sirable that rural patrons place
in their mail boxes small detach-
able cups of wood or tin in which
to place coins, when necessary,
in purchasing supplies of stamps.
