THE DIRECTO':S OF THE STANDARD LIFE ASSURANCE
COMPANY REQUEST ATTENTION TO THE ADVANTAGE
OF JOINING THE COMPANY BEFORE THE CLOSE OF
THE BOOKS FOIL THE PRESENT YEAR ON 15rn NOVEMBER,
WITH REFERENCE TO THE DIVIsION OF PROM'S IN
1855.
THE FUND to be Divided in 1855 will be
derived from the Profits which have arisen since 1850, and
those persons who effect Assurances at this time wi l secure TWO
YEARs' Par icipation in that Fund, while they will rank at the
division in le6o for seven years' bonus; in 1805, for twelve years'
bonus ; and o on, increasing their claim at EACH PERIOD.
The principle on which the Profits of tee Company are divided i
similar to a TONTINE, and the Directors 'have been enabled to con-
fer very large benefits on the Policyholders at the 10 Trier Div, sions
of Profits in 1835, 1840, 1845, and 18.)0 ; some of the earliest Assur-
ances having been increase d at the rate of 87/. his. Cr each 1001.
assured. thus making an original 1,0001. policy equal to 1,673/.
The Directors confidently asrert that no Life A.,surance Institution
holds out greater advantages than the STANDARD to persons who,
looking forward to long life, effect Assurances fur the benefit of their
families.
The Company'S large Accumulated Funds are Invested on the
s6cority of land and in Government securities. The Income is con-
sirterably upwards of Two Hundred Thousand Pounds per lumina ;
and for some ye ,rs the ave•age number of persons who have joined
the Institution has been 825, and the corresponding annual amount
of New Assurances, 460,0001._
