BRITISH EMPIRE MUTUAL FIRE
ASSURANCE SOCIETY,
37, Yew Bridge•street, Blackfriara, London.
THE MUTUAL PRINCIPLE applied to Life Assurance has met
with extraordinary and long continued success.
FIRE ASSURANCE, however, is almost exclusively conducted
on the proprietary system.
The evidence is complete that large profits are derivable from Fire
Assurance.
BY THE MUTUAL PLAN all these profits are divided among
the Assured, who alone have the control. The Directors are chosen
by the Members from among themselves.
The success which has attended the progress of the British Mutual
Life Assurance Company has led to the establishment of this Society
on these principles, and which is now effecting Assurances against
Fire at the London and Provincial Offices, where Prospectuses may
be obtained.
Application for Agencies may be made to the Secretary.
W. S. COVER, Secretary.

i.; FENCER'S CHINESE LIQUID HAIR DYE.
The thousands of individuals who for upwards of twenty
years have used this celebrated liquid, pronounce it to be the only
article extant which effectually changes, in a few minutes, red or
grey hair, whiskers, moustaches, &c., to a dark brown or black,
without trouble (by simply combing it through the hair), and pro-
duces by one application a pleasing and permanent change ; and it
can be incontestibly proved, that while many dyes tend to destroy,
the hair by their pernicious properties and dangerous process of ap-
plication, that this article promotes the growth of hair, nourishing
t roots till the latest period of life. Price 3s. 6d., 65., and 105.
per bottle.

THE BEST APERIENT and ANTIBILIOUS
MEDICINE for general use is FRAMPTON'S PILL OF
HEALTH, which effectually relieves the stomach and bowels by
gentle relaxation, without griping or prostration of strength. They
remove head-ache, sickness, dizziness, pains in the chest, Sec., are
highly grateful to the stomach, promote digestion, create appetite, re-
lieve langour and depression of spirits ; wkile to those of full habit
and free livers, who are continually suffering from drowsiness, heavi-
ness, and singing in the head and ears, they offer advantages that Win
not fail to be appreciated.
This medicince has for many years received the approval of the
most respectable classes of society ; and in confirmation of its effi-
cacy, the following letter has been kindly fbrwarded to Mr. Prout,
with permission to publish it, and if requisite, to refer any respect-
able person to its author :
" To Mr. Front, 229, Strand. London.
Heavitree, Exeter, April 24, 1844.

,
Sia,—l feel pleasure in being able to bear my strong and unsoli-
cited testimony to the excellence of your Frampton's Pill of Health,'
which I consider a most safe, efficacious, and very superior ge-
neral medicine. The widow of an officer, an elderly lady, and
near relative of mine, has used them—very rarely having re-
course to any other medicine for a long period of years. She
has recommended them extensively, and in one instance in
which she induced a person to adopt them, and supplied the
first box herself, they have proved of extraordinary efficacy. I think
that, perhaps, there is scarcely any other of the many patent medi-
cines before the public of equal value as friend in need ;' certainly
none possessed of superior claims. I shall be happy on all occasions
to give them my individual recommendation; and am, Sir,

" Your obedient servant,

RESTORATION OF THE HAIR.
" To Messrs. A. Rowland and Son, 20, Platten-garden, London
"Linton, Cambridge, October 25, 1847.
" GENTLEMEN,—A striking instance of the efficacy of your Macas-
sar Oil in the restoration of the hair has just come under my notice.
The person alluded to is a young man named Haylock. of Ashden,
near this place, whose entire head of hair came off by some unac-
countable means. He purchased of me several different popular pre-
parations, which he regularly and faithfully used, but without effect-
leg the least apparent change, At last I advised him to try a bottle
of your Macassar Oil ; and, on Friday last he communicated to me
the pleasing intelligence of the reappearance of a thick head of hair.
You can make what use you please of this, and refer inquirers to,
" Yours respectfully,
"J. SERGEANT, Bookseller, Ste."
