At a numerous Meeting of the Proprietors held at the Company's
offices, 25, Pall.mall on the 2Gth instant, it was shown by the report
of the Auditors and Directors—
That this Company was the first to Assure Diseased and Invalid
Lives in a systematic manner, and on the same safe and defined
principles as those on which ordinary offices assure Healthy Lives ;
and that at the present time it is the only Company furnished with
scientific and well-constructed tables showing the duration of life in
the different classes and various stages of disease.

THE PERFECT SUBSTITUTE for SILVER.
The high estimate formed by the public during the twelve
Years WILLIAM S. BURTON'S (late RIPPON and BURTON'S)
chemically purified material has been before it (made into every
Useful and ornamental article usually made in silver, possessing, as
it dcee, the characteristic purity and durability of silver), has called
Into existence the deleterious compounds of " Albata Plate," " Berlin
Silver," and other so called substitutes ; they are at best but bad
imitations of the genuine articles manufactured, and sold only by him.

NICKEL ELECTRO-PLATED. —The REAL NICKEL SILVER;
introduced and made only by WILLIAM S. BURTON (late
ItIPPON and BURTON'S), when plated by the patent process of
Messrs. Elkington and C 0.,, ; beyond all comparison the very best
article, next to sterling silver, that can be employed as such either
rofolly or ornamentally. In the lengthened and increasing popu.
tY of the material itself, and the high character of the method of
ating, the public have a guarantee that the articles sold by w S.
Ruston (and by him only) are, as it regards wear, immeasurably
Superior to what can be supplied at any other house, while by no
Possible test can they be distinguished from real silver.

Its variety and extent, purchasers are invited to call and inspect it
39. Oxford-street (corner of Newman-street). Established in
Wells-street, 1820.

That the Public have felt the nigent necessity for a Company
established en such principles, was rendered manifest by the fact,
that during the period of five years in which the Society had been
in business, no less than 2,051 proposals had been made to it, cover-
ing assurances to upwards of one million of money The number of
Polices issued far exceeds the average of that of most of the old and
successful offices in a similar period; and the business has been
gradually progressive, the number of Policies issued during the last
year being nearly triple that in the first year of the Society's exist-
ence ; showing that as the establishment of the Company has become
more generally known, the public has more freely embraced the
peculiar advantages which it offers, thus affording every reason to
believe that the business of the Company will still go on rapidly in-
creasing.
That the number of deaths that have taken place has been under
the number estimated by the Tables of the Society by nearly ten
per cent. ; a strong proof of the safety and correctness of the data
and principles on which they are founded ; and that these facts
conclusively show that business in Invalid Lives can be transacted
with HI much safety as that in Healthy Lives ; that the prejudice
which once prevailed against this class of business is rapidly disap-
,earing ; and that there are few companies which are not satisfied

• that this kind of Assurance may be done with security and profit, so
much so that several have-now become anxious for it. That it is
also gratifying to he able to state that a very large proportion of old
establ•shed offices have latterly co-operated with this Society by
ten itte• it a considerable amount of business.
That the public have derived a great benefit from the establish-
ment of this Company, is shown by the fact, that 66 ver cent. of the
liv,s assured had been rejected by other offices; thus extending the
highly valuable benefits of Life Assurance to a liege section of the
community not embraced by other companies. This result will be
the better un,ierstood when it is stated, that in the mature period of
life the deaths from one disease Only, Consumption, in the principal
towns of England, are more than one-third of the total deaths in the
same period of life. And if an inquiry be instituted into the preva-
lence of other diseases also, such as Asthma, Dropsy, Diseases •fthe

THE TWO FEET.-AN ANECDOTE
FOll E. MOSES AND SON'S BOOTS AND SHOES.
Two trotters conversed as they happen'd to meet,
And the reader shall hear what was said by the feet.
" Pray what do you honestly think (said the one),
Of the boots and the shoes made by MOSES and SON?
For my own part a thli satisfaction I feel,
With my sole and my instep, my toes and my heel.
The boots we have on are so stylish and neat,
That, in truth, we're a couple of beautiful feet."
" Well done ! (salt the left with a stamp of the foot),
You are ' right, Mr. Right,' with regard to your boot ;
I've oftentimes thought I'd begrudge not a ran.om
For a boot or a shoe that would make me look handsome;
And now I have got it, and so have you, too,
Such a pair of neat feet very seldom we view.
Another prime feature which ev'ry one views
As belonging to MOSES and SON'S boots and shoes,
Is the fact that they are faultless in lit and in style,
While they answer their purpose a very long while.
E‘ery foot would do well to attend our advice
By obtaining such goods at a very low price,
For MOSES rnd SON, in their boots and their shoes
Are determined that al folks shall gain and not lose.
LIST OF PRICES.
'LEAVE MADE.

Head, Heart, &c. &c. &c., ft will be found that nim:e than one-half of
the whole population would, on medical examination, be refused ad-
mission into ordinary assurance offices.
The d6eases here alluded to are ouch as exist in general in a
chronic form, frequently for many years prior to death, but which, on
a strict medical examination, would effectually exclude the persons
so affected from the benefits of Life Assurance ; and since it thus ap-
pears that a majority of the population is included in this class, the
value and importance of the new feature of this So iety cannot fail to
be justly'appresiated.
_

That the Published document by this Society shows—
In the first place, Tit it the peculiar features of this Society open a
larger field for business than all other Offices can have unitedly ; and
In the second place, That the risk of Assuring Diseased Lives
must, from its own nature, be less, and its principles be found to rest
on a more satisfactory basis, than these which regulate ordinary
assurances.

That premiums have been determined for the assurance of persons
at every age, among those afflicted with consumption, asthma,
bronchitis pneumonia, disease of the heart, apoplexy, paralysis,
epilepsy, Insanity, disease of the liver, dropsy, scrofula, gout, rheu-
matism, &c.
That in all cases where satisfactory proof is given that the causes
for an increased rate of premium have ceased, a reduction in the
premium is made.
Increased annuities are granted to Unsound Lives.
No extra Premium required on Healthy Lives, in the Army or
Navy, unless in actual service.
HEALTHY LIVES, both at Home and in Foreign Climates. are
Assured with as much facility and at lower rates than at most other
offices ; and a capital of Half-a-Million sterling fully subscribed
affords a complete guarantee for the fulfilment of the Company's
engagements

ROWLANDS' ODuNTO, or, PEARL DEN-
TIFRICE , a WHITE POWDER for the TEETH, com-
pounded of the choicest and most reserche ingredients of the Oriental
Herbal, of inestimable value for preserving and beautifying the
Teeth and strengthening the Gums. It extirpates all tartarous adhe-
sions to the Teeth, and ensures a pearl-like whiteness to the ena-
melled surface. Its Anti-Septic and Anti-Scorbutic Properties arrest
the further progress of decay of the Teeth, induce a healthy action of
the Gums, and cause them to assume the brightness and colour indi-
cative of perfect soundness. The Breath also attains a fragrant
sweetness truly grateful to its possessor. Its truly efficient and
fragrant aromatic properties have obtained its selection by the Court
and Royal Family of Great Britain, and the Sovereigns and Nobility
throughout Europe, while the general demand at once announces the
favour fn which it is universally held. Price 2s. 9d. per box.
CAUTION.—To protect the public from fraud, the Hon. Commis-
sioners have directed the proprietors' name and address to be en-
graved on the Government stamp, thus "A. ROWLAND and BON.
