GREAT ADVANTAGES OFFERED BY THE
UNITED KINGDOM LIFE ASSURANCE
COMPANY,
8, Waterloo-place, Pall-mall, and '2, Charlotte-row, Mansion-

house, London.
This Company, established by Act of Parliament, affords the
most perfect security, from an ample capital, and only requires,
when an Insurance is for the whole period of life, one half of the
very moderate Premiums to be paid for the first five years after the
date of the Policy, the other half may remain, subject to the pay-
ment of interest at 5 per cent. annually, to be deducted at, death, or
may previously be paid off at convenience. It obviously becomes
easy for a person of very moderate income to secure, by this ar-
rangement, a provision for his family ; and should he at any time
after effecting the insurance succeed to, or acquire, a fortune, he
may relinquish his policy, having only paid one half the premiums
for the first five years, instead of the whole, as in all other Com-
panies. Thus a man of 25 years old may, by an annual payment of
28/. 16e. 3d. for the first five years, secure to his widow and chil-
dren at his death payment of no less than 3,0001., subject only to
the deduction of 1441. Is. 3d , being the amount of premium un-
paid. This Company holds nut, in various other respects, great
inducements to the public. When such facilities are afforded, it is
Clearly a moral duty in every parent who is not possessed of a for-
tune, but of an income, however moderate, to insure his life for a
sum which may yield a comfortable provision for his family.
