DEFERRED ANNUITIES.
139 the operation of the same principles, the Society is enabled to
afford to the public a plan of Deferred Annuities far more advanta-
awns than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the con-
tribution of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving, may se-
cure either a comfortable provision for himself in advanced age, or,
at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family at his
death; while by giving to the purchaser, at any time, the power of
borrowing two-thirds of all previous payments, it removes all risk
of forfeiture from inability to continue premiums, besides affording
an ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and
should the purchaser die before arriving at the stipulated period, two-
thirds of his payments will be returned to his representatives.
The following Table is a specimen of the great and varied advan-
tages which tho judicious application of a small saving can secure
hrough this Society.

10 AN OLD CHEST OF DRAWERS
Dail, ancient Chest ! I never look at thee,
But various musings occupy my noddle;
For thy respected form was known to me,
Before my infant pegs bad 'coined to toddle.
daddy owned thee, and I think, the ra, her,
Thou once belongedst to my father's father.
Think not, old chest, that thou shalt e'er be sold,
Or chopped awl changed away in foolish barter;
To part with furniture so good—so old,
Would mike me sorry both before and after ;
Long in the family ha.t thou been of value,
And never hast thou once changed hands, nor shall you.
When but a little fellow, newly breeched,
I owned a part of thee to hold my raiment;
Dress badly cut, and very badly a itched,
And badly purchased for a heavy payment.
Oh, when I think upon the times departed,
How glad I feel that Moses ever startol.
What different garments do-t thou now contain?
Thy drawers are now enriched by Messrs. Moses,
Who prove that competition i, in vain,
In spite of what it vauntingly proposes.
All thou containest—Trowsers, Coats, etcetera,
Proves Moses' clothing infinitely betteter.
