W, Pust was born in Springfield, Illinois, about fifty years ago; he received the usual public education, and’ a military training, at the University of Illinois, but his was not to be a life confined within the limits of an indolent profession. After his physical breakdown, and while a semi-invalid, he went to Texas fur a while, and lived the life of a ranchman, ‘The turning-point of his life occurred when he went to one of the sanitariums of Battle Creck.” Michigan, for treatment, where the treatment was a lamentable failure and he was given up to die. It was probably his own indomitable will and the secking of new meth ods that brought about his recovery, but it was just like Mr. Post, while apparently devoti iis days to relaxation from any thought of business, to be working out a problem of health through the perfection and use of a cereal food that has since become a breakfast luxury for half the peuple of the world, and a safeguard against infirmity to millions of deli- cately constituted persons, He decided that there e: a pure cereal food, so. prepared as to prove beneficial to delicately organized systems, which rebelled at the ordinary staple articles of food. Coffee especially affected him inju ously, and he argued that there were many thousands of others similarly constituted. No sooner had he figured this.all out to his own ed, Postum Food Coffve, and he began its manufacture in the carr bles, near his present enormous factori manufacture of Grape-Nuts came about similar way, andthe plant grew very rapidly fron, year to year until it now employs some six hundred peuple ; it is one of the most, suc cessful manufacturing concerns in the world, and has amassed a large fortune fur Mr. Post. It isn't necessary to search for a necessary reason for this success ; it is summed up in the act of Mr. Pust’s wonderful individuality, which has at all times directed the affairs of the company in detail, and to his wisdom i expending money in advertising until of late years his annual expenditures with newspapers es exceeds a silo dollars isted a demand for | ‘piamono currens fo Sateneatens Bape cee 8 [QFTIS BROSAMDSS cal No Security, No Endorsements, No Interest.

THe PRUDENTIAL’S GREAT FIGURES FOR 1905 EMPHasize THE CONFIDENCE OF THK Punic in THar Wet KNOWN Company, The Life Insurance Company which has “The Strength of Gibraltar” has given one more proof, if proof were needed, that the use of the phrase is well warranted. ‘The Pruden- tial’s financial statement for 1905 just issued shows that the Company had one of the great- est years in its history. Large increases are reported in all branches of the business which make for strength and returns to policyholders. ‘The amount of insurance in force now stands at $1,170,000,000, and the number of policies in force has reached a total of 1 lions. Of great importance to policyholders is the fact that the assets now foot up to $10; 000, an increase of over $18,000,000 year; the liabilities are less than $91,500,000 {including over $88,000,000 re: protect policy leaving a surplus $16,000,000. years ago the assets were only about $15,000,000, and the surplus about 000, which shows at what a prodigious mil- rgin ts, al as y When it is remembered that the sixtec lion dollars surplus represents so much for the protection of pe licyholders’ inter the strength and stability of The Prud an institution are apparent. It is also of great interest to note that the voluntary payments to policyholders by The Prudential over and above the requirements of policy contracts exceed $6,000,000. ther words, although the Regular Industrial policies now issued by The Prudential provide for div dends and additional benefits, the policies i sued years ago contained no such. provis Nevertheless the company places the old and the new policies on the same liberal fuoting. The payments to policyholders last. year were over T4 million dollars, and the total payments | ganization more than 107 million | dollars. Itis also noted that there has been a red tion in the expense rate amounting to over per cent. of the premium income ; that a large and increasing proportion of the Company's assests consists of railroad and highest grade, as well as sev t_ mortgages on improved real estate, an that the amount of cash held by the Company is distributed among 274 banks and trust cx panies throughout the United States. T Company paid over one million dollars in div dends to policyholders last year, and had a decreased death-rate, due to éare in the selec~ tion of risks. The accuracy of the Company's records has been certified to by a firm of public accountants ‘of international reputation. ‘The showing is altogether an excellent one; no such results have hitherto been achiev any company of the same age ; and they can only be attrib- uted to thoroughly sound methods, coupled with keen enterp does not need to go further than th account for The Prudential’s great success, In commenting on the great record of 1905, | President Dryden states that the voluntary [testimony given by The Prudential's officers before the Armstrong Committee strengthened | the confidence of the public in the Company. c= ‘cause to UNTRIED WAYS.
