IMPORTANT ADVANTAGE TO ASSURERS.

NON•FORFEITURE OF POLICY.—A most desirable pro-
vision is male for assurers in this Association, who, from auy
cause, are unable ur not desirous of continuing the payment of
premium on an assurance. After five annual payments on a
whole term of life policy, the Direztors will at any nine give the
assurer a paid•up policy for the amount he may have paid,
securing that sum to his representatives at death. Thus, sup-
posing a person aged thirty to have assured, for 1,0011., with
profits, fur the whole term of life, and paid live years' premiums,
he would under such circumstances have paid the sum of 1131.
2s. dd. Should he desire then to drop the assurance, or it he bo
compelled to do so, he may receive a paid-up pul:cy for that
amount. This would be an absolute and indisputable reversion,
payable to his representatives atter his death.

least dry about it, excepting, indeed. it be the humour, which is
plentifully dispersed throug'iout each paper. The grimmest
features must relax their austerity over many passages in fre-
quent pages."—Bristol Mirror.
