interest in common with other proprietors.

Company, which renders them peculiarly available for present
or future pecuniary transactions.

-this Company by Dr. Aleiander 'Jamieson, are as low as a
due regard to ultimate safety will permit, and founded upon
the basis of Carlisle mortality. They are so comprehensive
that every transaction in which life forms the contingency may
be effected with this Company.
Applications for agencies for the Company throughout Eng-
land may be made to the Managiug Director, accompanied by
references to gentlemen in London.
