IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENTS have been introduced
into LIFE ASSURANCE PRACTICE by this COM PA NY.
The POLICIES are INDEFEASIBLE and INDISPUT-
ABLE, unless they have been obtained by fraudulent misre-
presentation.
The Board of Directors satisfy themselves upon the va-
rious questions proposes! before they enter into contracts of
assurance, and frame their policies in such terms as to pre-
clude all future questions as to their validity, and thus ren-
der them indisputable and negotiable comments of future debt
against the Company.
Parties may be assured either upon the participating or non-
participating plan ; the assured are relieved of all responsi-
bility, and the participating class is entitled to the whole of the
profits upon that branch of the business.

This Work, a Seventh Edition of which is now presented to
the public, ten thousand copies have been exhausted since its'
first appearance, has been very much improved and enlarged
by the addition of a more extended and clear detail of general
principles, as also by the insertion of several new and highly in-
teresting cases. The book, as has been already stated, is the
result of very ample and daily increasing experience in a class
of diseases, which, for some unaccountable reason, have been
either alto; ether overlooked, or treated almost with indiffer-
ence, by the ordinary medical practitioner. The proverbial
and well known rapacity of unqualified practitioners, who
traffic on the health and credulity of patients, has been en-
couraged and aroused by this supineness, on the part of the
regular surgeon. In order to obviate the pernicious effects
sure to result from the practices of such pretenders, the
authors
have fur a considerable time devoted themselves ex-
clusively to a certain class of diseases; of the necessity of so
doing, they were further convinced by feeling that tact in in-
vestigating the latent sources of' many disease 3, which arise
from certain secret practices, can
only be acquired by an '.ex-
clusive
and undivided attentionto this department of medical
rocea
of
practice. The numberless instances daily occurring
affections of the lungs, putting on all the outerraptnpgeeai'
r a whereina
consumption, which, however, when traced to h
are found to result from certain baneful practices,
fullyspuree,
ove
that the principle of the division of labour, is nowhere rmes
applicable than in medical practice. We feel no hesitation
saying that there is no member of society by whom the book
will not be found useful, whether such person hold the relation
of a Parent, a Preceptor, or a Clergyman.
The PARENT, who beholds his beloved child pining
away, and fast approaching to a premature grave, in conse-
quence of some disease, which, for want of careful investiga-
tion of its real cause, has been set down to the score of con-
will, on perusing this work, be astonished to find,
'nine-tenths of the cases of young persons of both
