- T . ) AN K OF DEFOWIT. I) NATIONAL ASSURANCE AND INVESTMENT ASSOCIATION, No. 3, PALL MA LL EAST, LONDON, S.W. (Head Office) No. 2, ST. ANDREW SQUARE, EDINBURGH No. f.'o2, UNION STREET, ABERDEEN No. S, CHERRY STREET, BIRMINGHAM N 0.9, PAVILION BUILDINGS, BRIGHTON No. 64, HIGH STREET, LEWES N 0.9, WESTMORELAND STREET, DUBLIN Established May, 1544. Empowered by special Act of Parliament. This Company was established in 1844, for the purpose of opening to the public an easy and unquestionably safe mode of Investment, with a high and uniform rate of Interest. The plan of the Bank of Deposit differs entirely from that of ordinary Banks in the mode of employing capital —money depo sited with this Company being principally lent upon well-secured Life Interests, Reversions in the Government Funds, or other property of ample value. This class of securities. although nut immediately convertible, it is well known yields the greatest amount of profit, combined with perfect safety. Further, Loans made by the Company are collaterally secured by a Polley of Assurance on the life of the Borrower, or his nominee, effected at a rate of premium which insures the validity of the Policy against every possible contingency. Thus Depositors are effectually protected against the possi bility of loss, whilst the large and constantly increasing revenue arising from the premiums on Assurances thus effected yields ample profit to the Company, and provides fur all the expenses of management. DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS may be opened with sums of any amount and increased from time to time, at the convenience of deposizors. A receipt, signed by two Directors, is given for each sum deposited. RATE AND PAYMENT OF INTEREST. The rate of Interest since the establishment of the Company has never been less than live per cent. per annum ; and it is con fidently anticipated that the same careful and judicious selection from securities of the description above mentioned will enable the Board of Management to continue this rate to depositors. The Interest is payable in January and July, on the amount standing in the name of the depositor on the 30th of June and 31st of December, and for the convenience of parties residing at a distance may be received at the Branch Offices, or remitted through Country Bankers.

DE JONOIT gives the preference to the Light-Brown Oil over the Pale Oil, which contains scarcely any volatile fatty acid, a smaller quantity of iodine, phosphoric acid, and the elements of bile, and upon which ingredients the efficacy of Cod Liver Oil, no doubt, partly depends. Some of the deficiencies of the Pale Oil are attributable to the method of ita preparation, and especially to its filtration through charcoal. IN THE PREFERENCE OF THE LIGHT BROWN OYER THE PALF.
