ment (which may be obtained on application at the Office in
Cheapside, or to any of the Agents in the Country) of Sums
actually paid, chewing the Sums respectively assured, and the
Bonuses thereon; and they request, in order to show the ad-

Persons desirous of effecting Assurances on their Own Lives,
or on the Lives of Others, will compare the particulars in the
statement referred to with the Addition or Bonus of any of
the other Offices which may apply to a Policy issued by them
since 1816, when the Atlas Company adopted the Bonus System.

BENEVOLENT FIRE and LIFE IN-

Capital, 250,0001.
Under the Management of a Board of Directors.
This Society, in addition to the general business of Insur-
ance Companies, has been formed for the purpose of enabling
persons of very moderate means to attain those objects hitherto
confined to the more wea_thy, viz. :-
Ist. Insurii.g their lives in sums from Si. and upwards, se-
euring Deferred Annuities as a provision for Old Age ; Wee,t.y
Allowances during Sickness ; and Endowments for Children,
the Premiums being divided into Monthly Instalments for the
convenience of the Insured. Also for the protection of such
as possess only a small personal property, Insurances are effected
against loss by Fire, in sums from 101. to 1001., by Quarterly
Payments ; thus Household Goods, Wearing Apparel, Stock
in frade, Workmen's Tools, &c., to the value of '2Ol. can be
Insured, on payment of Sixpence every Three Months, duty
included.
The attention of the Public is particularly directed to this
very novel feature, for the man to whom this fact is known, will
henceforth deserve little sympathy should he become the victim
of a calamity, against the evils of which he could so readily
have guarded.
Prospectuses, detailing at length the various modes and rates
of Insurance, can be obtained on application at the office, 351,
Strand, or to any of the Society's Agents.
