Alexander Robertson, Esq.
The POLICIES are INDEFEASIBLE and INDISPUTABLE,
the Company being prohibited, by the li4th clause of their Deed of
Constitution, which is duly registered in terms of the Act, from dis=
puting a Policy upon any ground whatever.
The Rates of Premium are calculated upon Carlisle mortality, and
are as low as a due regard to complete security will justify.
HALF PREMIUM SYSTEM. —By this plan only one-half of the
premiums. with interest of the retained halves, is required to be p aid
for the first five years—the retained halves, being payable at the
convenience of the assured, or allowed to continue, to form
a deduction from the claim en the Policy ; and as the As-
surance may be relinquished at any time without payment
of the retained premiums, this scheme enables a party to
assure for the first five years at little more than half the usual rate,
and to discontinue a Policy at about one-half the usual sacrifice.
• WHOLE WORLD POLICIES are granted, whereby the security
of a creditor, holder of a Policy, continues unimpaired, although the
assured life should go beyond the prescribed limits.
Sums are assured payable to the parties themselves on attaining a
specified age, or at their death, whichever shall first occur.
PARTNEK4IIIP POLICIES are granted, whereby a joint assurance
effected by partners, at the charge of the firm, secures the capital in-
vested. On the death of either, the survsvor is benefited by retain-
ing the whole capital, and the representatives of the deceased obtain
their Share without having to wait until it can be recovered from
outstanding debts.
There is no extra charge for residence beyond 35 degrees of the
equator.
Ne Admission or Entrance Fees are required, nor is any charge
made for the Policy beyond the amount of the stamp.
Claims are payable within three mouths after proof of the death of
the assured life

approved by the Board, who extend the business of Life Assurance in
connexion with this Company.

TO THE LADIZS.
This lady had the following letter Inserted in the "Times" news.
i,
paper on Aug. 7,114 g. Reader, remember, this letter was put -at
the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me.
.. Mrs. weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor-
tunity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimsteme, of the HerbarY, High'
gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com-
pletely restored the halrer head, after using itabout four months,
and the whole other hams much stronger and more luxuriant than
lever was before the baldnesa appeared.
Re" Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to:the virtues of Mr. GA
Regenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase
Ile. bottle et
they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex-
perience. not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund-
ance, but as a cure of nervous headache ; as a toilet perfume 11l far
beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any
lady of respectability to the above fact .-3, Swan-street, Beirough."
In eases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, ape w
drops on the crown of the head occasionally. every week, will pre-
vent the hair from coming away with the comb, insa andtrong, and
prevent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriantcurly. A
few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the
hair brilliancy, causing it to curl.
The most delicate ladies may use this delightful proauct of the
mast aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing
odour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion
t 3 the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour ten or twelve drops
on the crown of trio head ; if very bad, repeat it every quarter of an
hour. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces
hair ou children's heads in a few appplications. It used on infante
heads, it has such a peculiar cooling influence on the brain as to pre-
vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.—See
pataphlet of testimonials.

Dense et right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-

if caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un-

Ind broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour andjusticedernand that health should form au item
