ACTUARY.-Mr. William Woodall, No. 5.

This Society derives its origin from Members of the Fra-
ternity of Freemasonry. But though it has the support of some
of the most eminent of the Brotherhood, it assumes no other
name, and claims no higher character than belongs to an as-
sociation of private individuals. Neither the Grand Master
nor the Grand Lodge has ever taken a part in pecuniary specu-
lations, nor granted to any undertaking of this description au-
thority to use a Masonic title.
The Deed of Constitution of this Society has been studiously
framed, so as to secure to the Proprietors and the Assured, the
means of knowing and controlling everything that affects their
interests. . _

The profits are to be ascertained at interval., of five years, and
seven-eighths divided amongst those assured at rates'entitling to
participation, in proportion to the amount of premiums actually
paid during any part of the preceding interval.
The Shareholders are to receive 4 per cent. on the paid up
capital, prior to any appropriation of profits, and at the end of
every five s ears, the remaining one-eighth of the Profits.
Application for Shares may be made by letter, certifying the
number desired, addressed to Mr. Woodall, the Actuary, Ark
Assurance Office, 83, Cornhill ; where every information re-
specting the Society may be obtained.

extraordinary, safe, and never-failing remedy for the speedy and
certain cure of Corns and Bunions, however obstinate and long.stand-
ing, induces the Proprietor of this highly-important chemical disro-
very, to Caution the Public against base and spurious imitations, in-.
jutious in their effects, and most dangerous to those who, either
through ignorance or the fraudulent pretences of others, are induced
to apply them. The Proprietor has received Testimonials of its be-
neficial effnets from the most respectable families in the kingdom.

From James Blundell, Esq , M.D.:—
" I have now tried for some time the Messrs. Folomons. .iewly
invented Spectacle Lenses, and have experienced much benefit ; they
are far preferable to my vision than any other Lens ; the relief is
very great, in particular by candle light, and in course of use for a
length of time the clearness of the, transparency brings every object
very distinct; they can be fully appreciated only by those who, like
myself, may stand in need of them.
