The following nre among the adrantagesoffeied by this oclety

ECONOMY combined with Security.
The RATES of Premium are lower than those of any other office,
which entitle the assured to participate in the profits, and considerably
lower than those of any other Mutual Assurance Society.
The WHOLE of the PROFITS are di►ided every fifth year among
the Assured, and a Bonus is added, after the payment of the Fifth
Annual Premium to every Policy effected on the participating Scale,
if a claim accrue thereon prior to the next division of profits.
BONITSES declared at the three former divisions (arising
from threc•foerths only of the profits), averaged 16, 31, and ZG per
cent. respectively on the amount of Premiums paid.
The BONUS declared in 1349 (arising from the whole of the pro-
fits), being the result of the operations of the Society during the last
five years upon the Mutual Principle, averaged 62!4 per cent. on the
Premiums received.

All Assurances effected during the year 1849, on the equal rates of
Premium, will be entitled to participate in the profits to be declared
in 1854.

SCOTTISH WIDOWS' FUND LIFE
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.
s-aESIDENT.
The Right Hon. the Earl of ROSEBERY, K.T.
vlce-rnastuertrs.
The Hon. Lord Cockburn.
The lion. Lord 3foncrieff.
His Grace the Duke of Iluceleuch,
The Most Hon. the Marquis of Tweeddale, K.T., C.B.
The INVESTED CAPITAL now amounts to up yards of 2 070,0001.
The ANNUAL REVENUE now amounts to upwards of 300,0001.
This OSice 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 no doubt 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 conducted. The practical
operation of these principles may be judged of from the fact, that the
Representatives of original Members—that is those Assured from
1815 to 1819—and whose Policies may become claims in 1853, will,
after payment of the Premium applicable to that year, receive 2,0621.
14s. 1 id. for every 1,0001., being equal to a Bonus of upwards of One
Hundred and Six per cent, on the Sum Assured—or more than dou-
ble the amount of the original 'ssurance—the prospective Septennial
Bonus (and which is provided for) being, in this Instance, at the rate
of upwards of Three-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 Office, or any of the Society's Agencies.
