SIR JUIIN FZLANIII4INJ
I very often think upon
The expedition of Sir John ;
And oft my heart exclaims alack,
I wish friend Frank were safely back.
I greatly pity his condition
In this protracted expedition.
How very cold Sir John must feel,
Ills very life-blood must congeal.
I really hope that poor Sir John
Has one of Moses' Wrappers on,
Like what I bought the other day,
For very, very little pay.
However

I'll warrant that the wind and snow,
gihdtabfalellfaoned blow,
Would
In such a famous Paletot,
As that obtained, so very low,
At Moses' out-and-out Depot.
Sir John with such a coat, I know,
Would feel his body in a glow ;
And I, of coarse, shall find it so.
Much, much to Moses' Mart I owe,
And therefore will I often go
To purchase at their famed Depot.

SCOTTISH WIDOWS' FUND LIFE
1.0 ASSURANCE SOCIETY.
Founded A.D., 1815, and constituted by Act of Parliament for As-
surance on the Lives of Healthy Persons in every station or pro-
fession, wheresoever resident.
PIESIDENT.
The Right Hon. the Earl of ROSEBERT,
TICE-IMESIDENTS.
The Hon. Lord Cockburn.
The Hon. Lord Moncrieff.
Ills Grace the Duke of Bucclench, KB.
The Most Hon. the Marquis of Tweeddale, IL T., C.B.
The INVESTED CAPITAL now amounts to up cards of 2 010,0001.
The ANNUAL REVENUE now amounts to upwards of 300,0001.
Th's Office is the oldest—has all along been, and still continues the
most successful in Scotland ; the amount of Assurances pas ed dur-
ing the last twelve years having been upward, of Half a Million
sterling annually. There can be nodoubt the continued prosperity of
this Society has been in a great measure, if not entirely, owing to the
equity of the principles on which it is founded, and to the manner in
which its affairs have been uniformly cond.cted. The practizal
operation of these principles may be judged of from the fact, that the
Representatives of original Members—that is those Assured frost
1815 to 1819—and whose Policies may become claims in 1852, will,
after payment of the Premium applicable to that year, receive 2,0621.
14s. lid. for every 1,0001., being equal to a Bonus of upwards of One
Hundred and Stx per cent. on the Sum Assure I—or more than dou-
ble the amount of the original Assurance—the prospective Septennial
Bonus (and which is provided for) being, in this instance, at the rate
of upwards of Tnree-and-a-Half per cent. per annum on the original
sum Assured.
The WHOLE PROFITS BELONG to the ASSURED.
Prospectuses and every information may be readily obtained on
application at the Head Omcc, or any of the Society's Agencies.
