Orflces, the rate without litmus is lower that that of most ether
ottees.
The Bonuses aro added to the Policies, or applied to the roducdon
of the Premiums.

Policies issued by this once are purchased at their full value ; or
Loans may be obtained upon them, after they have been in existence
for 'lvo years.

In addition to the above advantages, the Directors have determined
to adept the principle of allotting a prospective Bonus to Policies
'Arming between the Septennial periods of division, in order that all

Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions, in order
that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the
veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raises,
and its true source in every instance disclosed, In how many could
it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap-
pointments. Excesses are always injurious ; the gift, which when
used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when
abused. the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less Injury
to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on
the nature and conseouence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame,
han any other to which it is subject.
This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of
their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly
requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can
be of more importance than the preservation of the health
and of the physical capabilities of which every man should
be possessed. it unfortunately happens that the unhappy
victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired
in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering
from their invariable consequexces, unwisely entertains a fear of ap-
plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are
beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
'or assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination n ascertaining the causes of
iiscasc, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva-
riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the
i.oedical man who can show by his possession of the requisite legal
