THE DEPOSIT and GENERAL LIFE
ASSUUANCE COMPANY.
Chief Office, 22, Moorgata-street, London.
The new and peculiar feature of this Company is the Deposit Sys-
tem of Assurance, combining the advantages of a Savings' Bank
with a Life Assurance Company. By this plan a person may invest
any sum, from 11. upwards, and, without any further payment, at
once sedure a Policy for a certain amount commensurate with the
age of the party and the amount deposited. He may also increase
his payment, and thereby increase his assurance, decrease it by with-
drawing any sum at any time, or he may draw out all he has paid in.
For example :—A person, aged T wenty-five, depositing 101. with
the Company, will at once secure a Policy for 26/. 12s. 3d., payable
at death, whenever it should happen, with full power to increase,
decrease, or draw oui the 10/. he has deposited. The humblest indi-
vidual may, therefore, reap many of the advantages of ordinary Life
Assurance, and, at the same time, possess all the facilities of a bank-
ing account.
Detailed Prospectuses, in illustration of the peculiar features and
advantages of the Deposit System, with Tables by F. G. P. Nelson,
scl, may be obtained on application to any of the Company's
Agents ; or to

IMPORTANT MEDICAL AND SURGICAL WORKS,

Second Edition, with Additions,
See., in cloth. price 55., by post free, as. 6d.,
(1)0N TRUE & FALSE SPERMATORRHCEA ;
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
n relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from Debility of the
Generative System, or Sexual Hypochondriasis.
Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD.
"Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practi-
cal contributions to German medical literature. This is the first
•ime, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medi-
cal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if be shall
detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his
power to correct."—London Medical Gazette, May 30, 1851.
—" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this
distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare
the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to
cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object
than to 1111 their own purses. The difference between true Sperms-
torrhcea and the various forms of disease which resemble it are
accurately described, and thus a safe guide is offered for the
treatment of the malady."—Medical Circular, May 5, 1852.
—" We have delayed so long upon the contents of the preliminary
chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for any notice of
,he subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ; but the moderate
price at which the brochure' is sold, places it within the reach of
every one interested in the mattcr."—Dublin Medical Press, April
18,1852.
