Whilst perfect Security is thus given, the number and character of the Shareholders (consisting of nearly 500 Members of the Legal Profession) will command a large amount of business, and consequent advantages will arise to the Assured.

Tables of Premiums have been prepared expressly for this Office, by F. G. P. NEISON, Esq., F.L.S., calculated on the nearest approximation to the real law of mortality.

These Tables will be found to afford peculiar encouragement to the Assurance of Young Lives. They embrace participating and non-participating Scales.

In the participating Class, the Assured will be entitled to have fourfifths of the Profits divided amongst them periodically, either by way of Addition to the Amount assured, or in Diminution of Premium, as the Parties may elect. No deduction will be made from such Profits for Interest of Capital, or for a Guarantee Fund.

The Premiums may be paid half-yearly or annually, or by a single Payment.

Assurances may be effected through any respectable Solicitor, or by writing to the Secretary.

The Directors meet on Thursdays at 2 o'clock; but Assurances may be effected on any day, by applying, between the hours of 10 and 4, at the Offices of the Society, where Prospectuses and all other requisite laformation may be obtained.
