RAILWAY LIFE ASSUR ;NOE, BY ONE PAYMENT.
This Company grants policies to Members of their own Company,
assarng against death by ral.ways on payment of nly one sum of
four soil
per cent Thus, a person seed 30, whopas an of
Assurance with the Comeany tor 1001, for which he pa.) s 2/. 4s Ild
air natty, may have a rail.• ay policy for 1,000/. tor one single pay-
ment of 40.., payable in the event of his death by railway accident,
and in addition to the 1001. secured by the ordinary po.icy.
SELF-PROT ECTITG LIFE ASSURANCE.
This Company have introduced a plan of assurance, whereby the
follow ng important advantages are secured by one policy : -
l. The payment of a principal sum to the a slued himself at a
Specified age
2. An annuity to commence at that age.
3. The payment of a principal sum in the event of death, when-
ever that may happen.
4. The f 11 benefit of all sums paid, although the premiums should
at any time be discontinued.
5. Relief from the payment of premiums after a specified age.
f. Small periodical payments, so as to suit the convenience of the

asinred
The premiums are made payable quarterly, half-yesrly
but by an arra 'gement will an agent, acting for the C mpaity, they
may be paid weekly or monthly.
All these a 'vantages are obtained by one policy, and there is no
Sacrifice et any sum that has been paid, in case the party should not
continue his pa) meats.
As an -xample a person aced 25. by paying 14s. quarterly, will
Secure 691. to him elf on his attsininz 60 years of ge, and an an-
nuity of 101. on reach ng that age and in the event of his emit
at any time (however soon that mat happen after he has made
the first payment). the 501. will be paid to his re; resentatives.
By doublying the premium the sum assured will be 1001, aid the
annuity 201. If in place of fixing upon the age of 60, he should pre
leer the age of 55, the premium for an assurance of 501., and an
annuity of 101., ould be 31 168. 9,1 yearly. As an example of
the effect of dieconw tinui• g to pay premiums, suppose a person aged
25 to take a self-protecting policy for 1001., and en annuity of
2111., payabl on attaining 60, end to continue the payment of
premiums only with he reaches 35 years of age, in such case the
policy will remain effectual to the extent of 271. 4s. 6d , and an
annuity o: 51. Se. 10d.
