JUVENILE ATTIRE and SITITALE DRESS
for EVERY ONE.
A t a time when every one's attention is occupied with a variety
of things which press on their notice at the commencement of the
year, it would be futile and unbusinesslike to solicit attention to such
articles as are not required. Many year's experience, and strict at-
ention to the claims of the seasons, induce E. MOSES and SON to
"der those Articles only which are absolutely necessary ; but these
are presented in a Magnitude of Stock, and a variety of styles and
Patterns, 'which excel all attempts at equality, and at such prices as
no Establishment in the world can imitate.

.--...---
ATTIRE for YOUTHS about to return to SCHOOL, if ordered at
E. MOSES and SON'S, is made with greater speed, Cut with greater
accdracY, finished with more care; it also Fits with more comfort,
is more durable, and is charged considerably lower prices than at
any other House. The Ready-made Department furnishes JUVE-
NILE DRESS of unparalleled excellence, at the lowest prices.
OVERCOATS, WRAPPERS, and WATERPROOF CLOTHING,
specially appropriate for the Wet sessol, in gentlemanly and corn-
fOrtable styles in materials and fashions, which arrest the attention
of all classes, but the low prices surprise every purchaser.
The HOSIERY' and FUR Department exhibits every novelty of
Le "awn, and presents inducements ii quality and price to be
oun only at the Establishment of E. MOSES and SON.

TO ln your intense anxiety forEMIGRANTS . the golden treasure of Australia, do
not forget your OUTFIT ! If time is a consideration, you need only
Pall at the OITTFITTING ESTABLISHMENT of E. MOSES and
SON.

* The rates here selected are those adopted by the English and
Cambrian Office, and advertised in its distinctive features as low
rates of premium, and professedly for the lower and rnidd:ing classes.
In most offices, particularly the older ones, such as the Scottish
Equitable and the Globe, these rates would be much higher. In the
former of 101. 7s. 6d., with 10 shillings per cent. entrance fee, would
be the rate to insure 5001. at 20 years of age. In the latter 8/. 13s 4d.,
to insure the same sum. The higher the rate the more in favour of
the DEPOSIT system.
Money laid oat at compound interest DOUBLES ITSELF every four-
teen years.
On comparison of these two tableB it will be seen that a person
under the novel system of DEPOSIT assurance can secure the follow-
ing advantages, viz., Ist. For a less sum, paid annually, he can assure
a larger sum in case of death than under the ordinary system.
2ndly. In the event of a desire to surrender his Policy he can receive
in this Company, by the above example, which applies to all ages.
THREB times as much as on the ordinary system. 3rdly. In the event
of inability or omission to pay, his policy remains still his property,
of th• same value as it was, though ho cease his current payments
for any number of years; whereas on the ordinary system, he gets
nothing. 4thiv. Should he require to increase or decrease the
amount of his policy he can do so at pleasure. He can, at any time,
by giving a fortnight's notice, withdraw any part from 1/ up to the
whole amount of his previous payments and with interest. After he
has withdrawn part one year he can, by a single payment, three
years, or any time afterwards, raise his policy to a greater or even
is former amount ; and by this system he can at all times regulate
his annual savings by his annual expenditure, with the, facility in the
bargain of having a fund to fly to in case of necessity, the same as
in a bank, with this palpable advantage, however, that be gets inte-
rest for his money, and in case of death his family receive more than
the amqunt of his savings. In ordinary Life Offices be can do Po
such thing, but his policy at once lapses or is cancelled the moment
he ceases to pay his current premiums, and, instead of having any
fund to 2 y to for aid, all his hard-earned savings become forfeited to
the society, and his misfortunes serve to benefit the pockets of his
more fortunate co-assurers.
Such a system is too equitable and too striking to be overlooked
and DEPOSIT assurance is the only system of assurance which can be
universally recognized and adopted when the principles are impar-
tially canvassed, and its palpable benefits become widely diffused. It
confers greater advantages than a bank because it allows a fair rate
of interest in case of withdrawal, and gives twice the amount in the
hands of the Company to the representatives of the Depositor 1 n
ease of death. thus combining the
ADVANTAGES OF A BANK WITH THE BENEFITS OF
AN ASSURANCE COMPANY.
In case of endowment assurances the advantages of the DEPOSIT
system are still more striking.

TIIE CURE OF STRICTURE OF THE URETHRA, on Princi-

BY F. B. COURTENAY,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England.

"In proof of his views he (Mr. Courtenay) bas given
he history of a great many cases successfully treated, as bad
as any which Dir. Syme adduced, and on which he had operated.
Such are cases it., xi., xii., and xviii. No. ix. had resisted, for a
period of twelve years, the treatment by dilitation, and was finally
removed in as many weeks. But cases xviii. and xix. appear, both
in duration, severity, and complication of symptoms, of a more ag-
gravated character than any detailed by Mr. Syme, and yet tho
treatment adopted by Mr. Courtenay proved eminently successful."
