Premiums for young and middle-aged Lives lower than in any
Office in England • payable annually, half-yearly, or quarterly, or
for a limited number of years only.
A Temporary Precautionary Capital of 200,0001. which will be
paid off as soon as an adequate surplus Capital shall have been
accumulated from the Premiums for short terms t thus the sub-
scribed Capital serves as a security to the Assured without perma-
nently draining the profits.
Three-fourths of the Profits divided among the Assured, until the
Shareholders are paid off and thenceforth the entire profits, by
additions to their Policies, with Interest thereon in reduction of the
Premium.

_
The Trustees sign every Policy, and give the Assured an imme-
diate remedy against the Fund itself.
On the back of every Policy for the whole Term of Life is a
Scale of its true value from year to year, at which price the Society
contract to purchase it, or to lend two-thirds thereof to the
holder to enable him to continue the future Premiums without

The Assured having the Contract of the Trustees to purchase
Policies, may reduce die annual Premiums at pleasure. For in-
ranee, by taking 10 Policies of 1001. each, instead of 1 of 1,00 W.,
whenever a Bonus of 1101. is added to the gross amount, the As-
sured by selling one Policy to the Society will receive its true value,
and reduce his Premium one-tenth, without diminishing the 1,0001.
Thus, he may either apply the Bonus in augmentation of the Sum
insured, or in reduction of his future Premiums.
There are no Agents to this Institution, and consequently the
Commissions which would be allowed to them are properly deducted
from the Premiums of the Assured.

A Physician or Consulting Surgeon of eminence in every prin-
cipal Town is attached to the Society.
Proposals from the Country to be sent to the Resident Director,
who will give all proper information, to save the necessity of per-
sonal attendance before the Board.
